Ministry of the Word
Bible Verse: Acts 6: 2-7
So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. Brothers, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.” This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit; also Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism. They presented these men to the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them. So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.
JMR's Words Of Wisdom
How are we promoting the ministry of God?
.
Each of us has an obligation to spread the Word of God. Now I am by no means suggesting that each of us become a priest, a deacon or even a minister BUT I am suggesting that each of us in our own way can spread the good news. A simple testimony to someone can make a change in their life. Sharing a particular message you heard at church can turn someone’s life around.
.
There are numerous things we can do to spread the ministry of the word. After Jesus ascended, the Apostles assigned men like Stephen to spread the Word and many disciples followed. I challenge you to speak the Word to someone.
.
Remember, it takes a long time to grow old friends…be blessed!
