MINISTRY BEYOND Four WALLS Deji David Olanrewaju ...the President of RETURN GLOBAL OUTREACH; a Teacher of God’s Word, A u t h o r , P u b l i s h e r , Leadership and Business Coach. ‘Deji David Olanrewaju leads an increasing number o f C h a m p i o n s a c r o s s Campuses and Corporate organizations, who are leading Kingdom life and capturing their spheres for Jesus. Over the years until quite recently, Ministry was perceived to be a Church thing. In fact even now, some Christian leaders are still of the opinion that if you do not have a Church setting either publicly or at the background of the Ministry work you do, you cannot sustain the work. We must understand that God's works and operations cannot be confined to the revelations perceived even by a group of spiritual leaders. We see in part and prophesy in part. No one has the autonomy to translate the visions and revelations he is privileged to receive into doctrines. The Scriptures form the highest authority of God's Kingdom on the earth, not spiritual leaders. We are in the end of time, and the Bible refers to this season as a time when knowledge will increase. Dan 12:4, “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be POSSIBILITIES : 2 “ increased” (KJV). I often hear Ministers admit to errors they previously preached due to l i m i t e d u n d e r s t a n d i n g concerning certain matters in Scripture. We must all stay abreast and open to get updates from Above and through proven vessels under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. We must keep learning. Ministry today has gone beyond the four walls of denominational d o c t r i n e s a n d s e c t i o n a l restrictions. No church setting currently has a final say as to direct the entirety of God's people on the earth, because you would observe the manifold order of strange manifestations across various denominations and commissions all over the globe. Whatever achievements you think God is helping you with, by the time you hear the testimonies of others, you are humbled. ...we would not fulfil the Great Commission solely through Church Ministry because the world will not come to your church, yet they need our Jesus. ”
: MINISTRY BEYOND FOUR WALLS : Ministry in contemporary times h a s e q u a l l y o u t g r o w n restrictions. I am of the opinion that we would not fulfil the Great Commission solely through Church Ministry because the world will not come to your church, yet they need our Jesus. Workplace Ministry is God's tool for global evangelism. Until we take this Gospel work into our various careers, where the world is willing to meet us and transact with us, we cannot reach and win them. Our Christ-like lifestyle in our everyday career and business life is the gospel that will win the world to Jesus. Hello Pastor, as a Minister, you must think outside the box if the work committed into your care must expand. You are not called to shepherd a few, but a perishing world you come across every day and at every turn. Satisfaction with the few you preach to on Sundays is a bend to mediocrity. Jesus has more for you! What are some Strategic Steps to take Ministry Work beyond Restrictions? PUBLICATIONS: Tracts, Newsletters and Ministry magazines, like this one you are holding; travel farther than always planned. When contents and production are detailed and in quality, you are sure that people will read every single copy you set out. Launch a Church or Ministry Newsletter or Magazine and reproduce your m e s s a g e s , r e v e l a t i o n s , testimonies and articles. Let more people know what God is doing in your midst. More souls will come to Christ through your quality prints than you can imagine. SOCIAL MEDIA: You want to reach the world? Then do Ministry via social media. If your budget can accommodate it, employ a Christian professional to maximize your social media h a n d l e s a n d k e e p t h e m productive. Set up accounts and pages on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Whatsapp, etc; the people God wants you to reach are waiting for you there. Be in the face of the world, get Jesus loud on every platform. “ Our Christ-like lifestyle in our everyday career and business life is the gospel that will win the world to Jesus. ” MEDIA PRODUCTIONS: I a m s t u n n e d w h e n I v i s i t Churches to minister and the messages are not recorded. Pastors preach every Sunday and these revelations are not captured and redistributed for the reedification of the congregation. There is no Church that wants to grow her people spiritually, that will not give attention to Media productions because the faith of the people will come by hearing and hearing of the Word beyond POSSIBILITIES : 3 Sunday service. It is the Word that is recorded and produced into audio and video formats that can be re-heard. Set up your Media department, Train the personnel and equip them for productive service in Sound Engineering, Mp3 and video productions. RADIO AND TELEVISION: While you must work by clear Divine instructions whether or not to host Radio and/or Television sessions, these media are very productive and efficient for carrying out the work of the Ministry. Though at certain levels, they can be a bit expensive, you must be willing to throw yourself in when you have gotten God's go ahead. As a corps member some years back, God instructed me to get on TV in Benue state, Nigeria. The following day I went to NTA Makurdi to enquire. The cost of getting on air beat my faith to the ground. I definitely could not raise the cash. After about two weeks, I went back to God to report my lack of sufficient faith and the LORD instructed me to go back to NTA and ask for free session. I did and got it. I was on TV, preaching free. Whatever God has called you to do; He wants to take you beyond the four walls of denominationalism, t r a d i t i o n , r e l i g i o n a n d mediocrity. The world must hear about Jesus. Go for it. God bless you. Arise!
