A Promise For You From Bible Promises:
Topic: Effective Minister [17/06/17]
Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. 1 Timothy 3:7. Read: 1 Tim 3:1-13
The twenty first century is the most blessed century with preachers who are eloquent in speeches and organized in presentations. It’s blessed with Churches with great edifices and dotted on every nook and cranny of the society yet we have more problems to deal with than the past centuries. You wonder why this is so. The Bible says, he that breaks the edge, the serpent will bite. Once the laid down rules are disobeyed, ministry ineffectiveness is inevitable.
From our Bible reading, the Holy Spirit through Paul outlined many qualities that qualifies a man to assume the post of a deacon. Yes, it’s God that qualifies the unqualified yet if we must be effective ministers in ministry, the above laid down rules must be adhered to strictly. Among others, the most powerful way to be an effective minister is to be the epistle and the Bible men read. 2 Cor 3:2. You must have a good report within (among your immediate family, friends, colleagues at your place of work) and without (strangers). When the above rules are strictly followed, we’ll be good ministers drawing men to God’s kingdom by our lifestyle.

* Stop crucifying Jesus the second time with your lifestyle, rather, let your life be the one that draws men to God’s presence daily.
