1. Accept the gifts and calling that God has given you, do not envy or criticize what others have or try to imitate them.
2. Pray daily to know the will of God for you and your ministry.
3. Be content with where God has called you, and with what He is asking you to do.
4. Continually ask for God’s help and power to do His will.
5. Remind yourself every day that you are in ministry to serve God and others and not to serve yourself or your own gain.
Finally,
Be reminded that God has called you just as you are. He has given you specific gifts for a reason. He desires to use you as the person you are along with the gifts you have – in combination with His Spirit’s anointing and transforming work – to minster to others.
Ministry
The disciples went from being frightened, uncertain sheep to becoming bold, testifying, miracle – working shepherds!
They declared the Gospel without shame, even to the point of suffering and death. This is the fiery zeal that comes from the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Ministry Be Alert
We will reap what we sow, whether that be righteousness and blessing, or corruption.
God will hold us, as leaders, to a sticker standard.
How are we serving our Lord?
Even when people believed in Jesus and seemed to follow Him, He knew how fickle men’s heart could be (John 2:23-25). Jesus warned His followers to not trust in or seek for the praises of men (Luke 6:26).
For if it is the high opinion of men that we seek, our hearts will not be disposed to serving only the Lord.
The Bible
What the Holy Spirit illuminates or reveals concerning the truth will always be in agreement with what He has already revealed in the written Word of God (John 16:13-14).
There is NO new revelation that will ever add to or disagree with the Bible!
