| Raise Up! In This teaching it is my desire to express what I feel is the call for today�s Church. We must have certain offices in the Church to raise up before the Church can be fulfilled. EPHESIANS 4:11-13 And he gave some as Apostles, others as Prophets, others as Evangelist, others as Pastors and Teachers, to equip the holy ones for the work of ministry, for the building up the body of Christ, until we all attain the unity of faith and the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the extent of the full stature of Christ. What does all this mean? What are these people in the Church? We see in the great exodus of Israel God used Moses to speak to the people on behalf of God. HE was the Prophet to Israel for that time. Then we saw Aaron come in and take the office of the Priest in the Temple fulfilling the Law of God and ministering to both God and man. HE was the Pastor of the day. Miriam come in with a new song and a dance. These people were used greatly by God to bring about the new way of Life through "Thus Sayeth the Lord!" Now your thinking what does this have to do with me, well let me explain it. The exodus is a parallel of the New Testament Church in this day. The people have stepped into Idol worship of all kinds. Churches have allowed doctrine of demons into the pulpit and they pollute the word of the Living God. For us to Escape this we must seek God and go as the Prophets of old went before God and presented the problem and repented and then he came and fixed it. We do not bring a new word but the Holy Scripture is the complete word of God and we speak the word forth and it happens. Rely on the Promises of Scripture. The Priest were the workers. We must go out and share salvations message and then bring them to God. Take the Word to the world and bring them into the fold. Then we have to have worshippers. Without a worshipper we are not going to far. God seeks a worshipper. Someone who has a heart for true worship will go forth and share the word and then open heaven by their worship so the person can experience the Word manifest. NO matter if you worship in dance, song, flags, or any other mode if it glorifies God and not man the heavens will open and he will pour out blessing. Do I have any Intercessors? Do I have any Ministers? Do I have a Worshipper? If I do I have revival. Look and see what God will do when we get into the proper places. This is not a game it is war! Rev.
