    About this ebook

    Ministry is a valuable part of the Kingdom. God anoints individuals in the Church with ministries and gifts to glorify Him. However, as the day of the Lord hastens, we find many believers entering into ministry with wrong motives. In addition, others are pursuing gifts for their own personal gain. This publication will give believers a pure perspective for ministry.

      Introduction

      God anoints and endows individuals with gifts and talents to serve in the Church. However, some have missed the very purpose of gifts and ministries in the Church. In the Abundant Truth Leadership Series, we will endeavor to present a proper foundation for believers to minister upon.

      In this publication

      This publication is not about the functions of gifts and ministries, but it explains God’s plan for them. Without a proper understanding, ministry in the Kingdom is ineffective. In this brief study, we will establish an understanding for God’s mandate for ministry.

      God created the world by His spoken word and His divine power. He does not need mankind to do anything. However, God used men and women from the beginning to accomplish His will in the earth. Thus, if God chooses to use us, He knows His ultimate reason for doing so.
