YOUR PERFECTION MUST LEAD TO THE EDIFICATION OF THE CHURCH

"And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12. For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ." (Ephesians 4:11-12 KJV)

The Word of God says the ministry offices are for the perfecting of the saints for the work of the ministry for the edifying of the body of Christ.

To edifiy means to build. And it connotes the idea of building a house. So the word of God says the ministry of our man of God is to beautify and equip us for the purpose of edifying or building the whole body of Christ or the Church.

Thus, your beautification and empowerment by the ministry of your man of God must lead to the building or edification of the whole church.

Your beautification and empowerment must not end with you. It must cause the whole Church to grow, to be strengthened and to operate in higher dimensions of God's glory.

And this is achieved by you fulfilling the ministry that God has given you for which your man of God trains you as a soldier for. Hallelujah!

So your ministry must lead to the building or edification of the body of Christ. And this was the same thing that Apostle Paul also emphasized in 1 Corinthians 12, noting that every member of the body is a vital part based on the unique role that everyone fulfils. And our relevance in the body is seen by we fulfilling that role. And this is the ministry that everyone of us is equiped or perfected by our man of God for us to fulfil, to the glory of God in Jesus name. Amen!

Prayer/Declaration
Heavenly Father, I thank You for the opportunity to be perfected in You through the ministry of my man of God. I declare that through my perfection, I'm filled with all grace to fulfill my unique ministry for the edification of the Church in Jesus name. Amen!
