THE ESSENCE OF FATHERWOOD - NATURAL/PHYSICAL & SPIRITUAL

Premature exposure in life whether be it career, marriage, work or ministry is dangerous and suicidal. It is very important you do not seek to lift yourself to platforms you are not prepared for. You might be exposed to things you lack the capacity to handle. 
 

Well for reference sake, Jesus spent 30 years in spiritual training and development before coming into public ministry. Moses was a shepherd for forty years before God raised him as a deliverer and leader for Israel. David had already killed both the lion and the bear before attempting to take down Goliath. Why would you want to get there any quicker than your predecessors?............

This in my opinion is why one needs a father, to direct, help in training and even determine when one is ready for exposure in life. 

You Need A Father: Joshua was a mighty man, full of wisdom because Moses fathered him (Deut 34:9), this suggests that Joshua served Moses and looked up to him for direction in life and ministry. Elisha became a great Prophet because he followed Elijah. Samuel was the greatest prophet to ever lived yet served under Eli the priest in 1 Samuel 3:1-21

You may be talented, gifted and intelligent but without the instruction of a father, you are like an eagle without feathers. Do not disregard your father, spiritual or natural

As said by APOSTLE DR. DAUDA MAIWAZI.......Three (3) things stand out, thus

1. YOUR SPIRITUAL FATHER CAN CHANGE UR LIFE FOREVER 

2.BE CAREFUL NOT TO INSULT UR RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.

3.MAKING HIM HAPPY IS A PRIME KEY IN RELEASING A        FATHERS BLESSINGS!

Respect and honour your fathers both physical and spiritual, you cannot honour one and disrespect the other. Honour them both, be humble and serve under them and you will go far. The one who stands on the giant can fight and see far above the giant.

Repeat this prayer: Father, I locate the spiritual father; the authority figure you have placed over my life. I henceforth submit to his authority and decree that he is supplied with every necessary resource; wisdom, knowledge and understanding, to decode your divine purpose for my life, in Jesus' name. Amen

  Without a father in your life you can't go further. I pray for you:: you shall function in the overflow of the Oil 2Kings 4:1-7. Receive grace in Jesus name. Amen.

GIFT WITHOUT PURPOSE BY ESI YANKAH

I have been born into a generation where many people with the call of God upon their life desire to have a prophetic gift. Though there is a five fold ministry -(1) apostles, some to be (2) prophets, some to be (3) evangelists, and some to be (4) pastors and (5) teachers....they want to see something before they believe they are called by God.

I am one person who because i was born into a Methodist home, schooled partly in America, a typical critical thinker never believed in prophecy or let me say was not exposed to it though my curiosity and desire to know spiritual things has always been there. I can ask so many questions that if you know you are not truly called you will get frustrated with me. I have met people with great gifts and happy to be counseled under the ministry of a great one in my generation.

I can't understand why most people now are dying to have prophetic gifts though the other ministries are equally important. It is biblical so i can understand that. I truly believe that unless you have a purpose, established yourself in something or ready to fulfill one don't desire the gift. A gift without a purpose is useless. Know what you are good at and why God has called you to do on this earth. If the reason you want a gift is to show off, compete or demonstrate pride you are better off doing something else with your life. Doing Gods work especially with a prophetic gift through my observation requires a person to genuinely care about people, be humble, have patience to help them find solutions to their problems, have the ability to hear God on every matter and not exploit people. Ive heard of barbers, hair dressers, doctors, mechanics, traders who have serious prophetic gifts and are using it very well in their work to impact lives and win people for God. It shouldn't always be one way preaching at the pulpit and wanting to be known and seen on flyers. Evangelism and missionary work are also great ways of reaching out.

God will not give you a gift without telling you what to do with it but more importantly you having an idea of the kind of impact you want to make with it, whether big or small, impact is impact. Finding purpose is necessary in every field or choice of work but i believe its even more important in the work of God. Once you are established in your purpose you wouldn't need to rally around trying to impress people, looking for fame and fortune because you have the ability to see more than they can. May God establish you in your purpose and may you find joy and fulfillment doing what He has called u to do.

If you have been running around looking for impartation of a gift or praying for hours and months looking for it be ready to carry the burden and establish yourself in a purpose so that you can put the gift to good use. Be ready to serve people and not people serving you.
