Kids in Ministry International<br />
<strong>Day</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Prayer</strong> <strong>for</strong> Israel<br />
What We Believe<br />
Kids in Ministry International, Inc. desires<br />
to bring awareness to children and adults <strong>of</strong> how<br />
God views boys and girls as partners in ministry<br />
and functioning members <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> body <strong>of</strong> Christ.<br />
Our intent is to teach, train, and equip<br />
children to do <strong>the</strong> works <strong>of</strong> Jesus and release <strong>the</strong>m<br />
in <strong>the</strong>ir spiritual giftings and callings. There<strong>for</strong>e<br />
we feel it is imperative <strong>for</strong> us to teach, train, and<br />
equip adults to minister to children, instructing<br />
<strong>the</strong>m how to mentor and activate kids in <strong>the</strong><br />
things <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Spirit. The goal is to help boys and<br />
girls find an active place in all areas <strong>of</strong> ministry<br />
and to inspire <strong>the</strong>m to become functioning members<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> body <strong>of</strong> Christ while <strong>the</strong>y are still children.<br />
Those areas include evangelism, missions,<br />
<strong>the</strong> gifts <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Spirit, worship, prayer, healing <strong>the</strong><br />
sick, and much more (Luke 4:18).<br />
We are convinced that anything <strong>of</strong> and by<br />
<strong>the</strong> Spirit God has <strong>for</strong> adults is also available to<br />
children. It is our opinion according to <strong>the</strong> Scriptures<br />
children are fully capable <strong>of</strong> participating in <strong>the</strong><br />
gospel. This includes salvation through <strong>the</strong> blood<br />
<strong>of</strong> Jesus, <strong>the</strong> baptism in <strong>the</strong> Holy Spirit, water<br />
baptism, communion, operating in <strong>the</strong> gifts <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
Spirit, and any o<strong>the</strong>r scriptural doctrine or concept<br />
when <strong>the</strong>se things are taught simply and on <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
level <strong>of</strong> understanding.<br />
We believe childhood is <strong>the</strong> time God<br />
designed <strong>for</strong> people to accept <strong>the</strong> gospel, and we<br />
must all become as little children to receive <strong>the</strong><br />
kingdom <strong>of</strong> heaven and that He places great value<br />
on <strong>the</strong> salvation <strong>of</strong> children (Mat<strong>the</strong>w 18:1-14).<br />
Kids in Ministry International, Inc. believes<br />
<strong>the</strong> body <strong>of</strong> Christ has a mandate from<br />
heaven to teach children <strong>the</strong> Word <strong>of</strong> God and to<br />
exhort <strong>the</strong>m to become doers <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Word and not<br />
hearers only (John 21:15, Deuteronomy 6:1-9,<br />
6:20-21).<br />
We believe children are a part <strong>of</strong> God’s<br />
end time army and <strong>the</strong> “great commission” <strong>of</strong><br />
preaching <strong>the</strong> gospel to all nations, laying hands<br />
on <strong>the</strong> sick, raising <strong>the</strong> dead, speaking in tongues,<br />
and o<strong>the</strong>r areas <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> believer’s ministry fully applies<br />
to born again children as well as adults (Mat<strong>the</strong>w<br />
28:19-20, Mark 16:15-16, Acts 2:16-17).<br />
We believe according to scriptural example<br />
(Judges 16:26, Mat<strong>the</strong>w 2:2-7) children will play<br />
a major role in ushering in <strong>the</strong> last great revival<br />
