You may have asked or wondered what exactly ministry is or what "ministry" is in general. Ministry is "to service/serve others for Christ" or "to encourage others in Christ." For example, missionaries go to other countries or places to do a particular SERVICE for Christ. Probably you have already figured out that this particular ministry (service or to serve) is about sharing encouraging things (information) and messages about Christ as well as sharing about the things of the Bible. It is a good question though if you wondered what this ministry is about or others are about. Ministry is a service to our Lord Jesus in love and to share the gospel (good news) of Christ. "So I am serving the encouragement of Christ sort of speak." It can get confusing with so many different approaches to ministry. We that are "Christians" and "children of God" are all called to some sort of ministry (service) or calling for Christ. - G.S
After all the golden rule in the Bible is:
Matthew 7:12 (KJV) - Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
(For some its called to be a roll model in whatever relationship your role is. Others are called to be teachers and encourage their students in the ways of Christ. You don't have to be a pastor or preaching on a pulpit to be called to ministry. It is very important as a Christian to know what your God given calling is in life.)
Bible Verses to share:
Galatians 5:13 (KJV)
For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
Acts 6:4 (KJV)
But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
1 Timothy 4:12 (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.
Colossians 3:16 (KJV)
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
A little bit about myself: I have a background in business as I have helped and help my family business. I have a great understanding about business, the business world and how it works. I know as we'll God has put a business calling to aid in ministry and help others. After all having a business sense defiantly helps in what ever you do. To God be the glory in everything He has done in my life! Praise the Lord Jesus!
Psalm 145: 1-2 (KJV)
I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.
Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.
Here is some of what I said on my last blog post:
As for the few months this blog has been open I feel that it has had a great start.
A little bit of my background: I always felt God has a calling on my life since I was in first grade for ministry. In first grade I used to encourage my class mates in Christ, all the way up till now. I would hold Bible studies, encourage class mates that wanted to accept Christ as Savior, and hand out encouraging messages that I would write like this blog. I also would help encourage younger guys like me that were a few years younger than me by giving them the hope of Jesus. I believe many accepted Christ as Savior praise God!
My goal is to continue to develop this blog ~ ministry and to do more as the Lord Jesus leads. The goal also is also to expand: videos, log in material, and eventually music. I hope you feel encouraged so far by the blog ~ ministry posts. If you are a Christian and have discovered this blog please keep it in prayer as it strives to encourage and bring hope to all that need it.
God Bless and in prayer!
