[1 Timothy 4:12-16 KJV]
“Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee”.
Among other things, there are three key things that transform every bishoprick;
- To strive to be an example to the saints.
- To give attendance to reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.
- To stir up every gift in you which you recieved when the presbytry layed hands on you.
Ministry is a mystery that cannot be joked with. The man who stands to minister to the saints must show himself as an example; given to reading, exhortation, and doctrine; and stir up the gift in him. May you never fail in your assignment in the kingdom.
May the Lord transform your ministry as you walk in this truth and revelation! Do not joke or play games with this! You will be a blessing to this generation! May the Lord take advantage of your moments to make an impact on the world. May the Lord be your helper!
Be blessed; I love you.
