APOSTLE FEMI LAZARUS’S ADVICE TO YOUNG MINISTERS
ADVICE TO YOUNG MINISTERS BY APOSTLE FEMI LAZARUS
A young man was reported to me a while ago by some concerned ministers.
He was said to wake up with a vision where he said an angel told him that his saliva has been anointed for healing the sick.
After that vision, he calls the sick in his meetings and spit on them for their healing.
Ministry is delicate, and there are dangerous bends.
Where you must not make any mistake.
There are governing fundamental things you must not miss.
So many people have landed themselves and those who follow them into trouble because of these omission.
Learn the following and never forget it.
1) There is nothing you want to do in ministry that someone has not done before.
2) You can claim to have received ordinances spiritually through visions, and you have received such with a word
in your heart that God wants to do something special with you since He is the Omnipotent God.
The Omnipotence of God is firmly within the jurisdiction of His word.
The word of God is our life jacket.
3) Lack of good esteem can confuse you, the crave for acceptance can make you join yourself with error and lies so people can see you as special also.
Many had entered into this and lied about the miracles God has given them. If your esteem is not intact, both you, your mandate and the people following you are not safe.
Men with low self esteem are always everywhere seeking for acceptance.
4) The greatest form of encounter you can have is with the word of God; when Christ is revealed to you in His word.
You can get lost interacting with angels till you get into dangerous level of error.
5) There is no new revelation of God outside the written word.
Any revelation you see or get that can’t be seen in the written word is not safe for you.
6) Understand the emphasis of the kingdom. Certain manifestations are good, but they are never to be our emphasis, when we begin to major on the minor, the people will be distracted and men will begin to wonder off the path of life.
7) Stay with what you have been sent to preach.
Don’t be a revivalist without a message!
Stay with the word. Falling of people under anointing is not revival, screaming and shouting is not the real move. Be disciplined enough to allow yourself grow under sound tutors.
Don’t hide yourself with the deception that you know all you need to know. God manifests sons not babies.
Be exposed, humble yourself enough to listen to men God has placed above you, you never can tell what you will learn.
Take heed to your doctrine, in doing this you will save both you and those who listen to you.
