Prayer ministry: foundations & keys

Are you, or someone you know, struggling with the effects of behaviour habits, relationship difficulties, troubling past events, or spiritual darkness? Has your relationship with God dried up, or your spiritual growth been stunted?

 

This booklet consists of notes for a training course run for a local church leadership, explaining how the broken and defeated can be set free in Christ – and blockages to growth in discipleship can be removed.

 

Starting with two key biblical principles underlying prayer ministry, it covers a dozen spiritual keys to wholeness: such as the lordship of Christ, being filled with the Holy Spirit, forgiveness, spiritual heritage, domination & control, deliverance etc

​

Finally there's a section on common issues one faces in prayer ministry, and a chapter on the practical aspects of ministry: listening skills, confidentiality & safeguarding, identifying the key issues to address, and so forth.

Verse-by-verse commentary on the Book of Exodus, with the NKJV bible text and the commentary on facing pages for ease of reference.

​

The overall theme is God’s demand of Pharoah: “Let My people go, that they may worship Me.” The commentary explains how God set (and sets) His people free from all kinds of oppression, whether material, spiritual or cultural. And having set them free, He provided them with a pattern for them to approach and worship Him.

​

Interleaved with the commentary are articles exploring a wide range of themes from Exodus. These investigate how Moses and the Tabernacle are illustrative ‘types’ that teach us about Jesus, how it throws light on the gospels, the revelation of God’s character it contains, the role of the Law of Moses in a Christian’s life, and what it teaches us about how to come into God’s Presence.

​

Though this is a study book, to be read in conjunction with your bible, there is much here for Christians of all stages, new or old: it is the outcome of a year’s bible studies in a local church. Bringing the biblical account to life, it is aimed primarily at your heart, but will give you many new insights into the culture and setting of the events.

Ancient truth, for our times ...

Asked to pick out the single most important commandment in the whole of the Hebrew scriptures, Jesus chose one from Deuteronomy, known to Jews as the Sh'ma. He said it crystallised the whole of the Law and the Prophets. And yet there seems a total absence of Christian teaching on it.

 

Many Christians nowadays are rediscovering the Jewish roots of their faith. Hebrew idioms, cultural insights, the prophetic nature of Jewish festivals have all attracted much interest. The Replacement Theology that underlay the established church’s complicity in the Holocaust, has come under heavy fire. So much so that we now face the contrasting issue of ‘Judaising’ which caused Paul so much heartache.

​

Simultaneously, in the world of theology, a movement known as ‘New Perspectives on Paul’ has gathered steam. This has led to a clearer understanding of his stance towards Judaism, and a realisation that many of his hallmark doctrines arose from his understanding of the Sh'ma.

​

Why did Moses summarise his life’s ministry in this one soundbite? What does it teach us about God, and how we should worship Him? How did it shape Paul’s distinctive doctrines? And how does it speak to today’s pluralistic and humanist culture? Can it help us rediscover spiritual

truths which have been lost for generations?

'Kingdom Think' shows how an understanding of the Kingdom of Heaven is as crucial to experiencing the power of Christ at work in your life, as its CPU is to your computer.

 

Kingdom thinking – a radical change of mindset – is vital both for individuals and for churches, to fulfil their destny and display God’s amazing grace and healing power.

 

The Western world is in the middle of massive cultural change. Many of the old certainties have gone. To many, the idea that science and reason can solve all our problems now seems as unrealistic as belief in wishing wells. At the same time, many now reject the church in favour of alternative spiritualities such as New Age thinking,

 

Somehow in coming to terms with science the church in the West lost its grip on the spiritual

realities of the Kingdom of Light and the Kingdom of Darkness, and in so doing lost its dynamic and authority.

​

Jesus’s worldview was based not on modernism or post-modernism, but on the reality of the Kingdom of Heaven. Regaining that worldview unleashes the power of the Kingdom in our lives and our churches.
