Churches have come face to face with the age of dependency. Church officers and businesspeople must take on the roles of patrons, fellow workers, and hosts for this dependent field. God has called church officers and businesspeople as watchmen, spiritual commanders who will restore their regions, Holy Masons, and “those who will leave behind.” Don’t attempt to do a lot of work, instead do the work that is absolute. You must invest your life in the work that God desires the most. What is that work?
1. Church Officers Who Save Dependent Churches
The biggest problem of this age is dependent churches. Churches of this age which are closing their doors cannot resolve this issue. That is why God has called church officers and businesspeople who possess the Gospel. The Bible states that “as the Day draws near, people will neglect to meet together.”(Hebrews 10:25) This is Satan’s strategy to prevent gatherings from taking place where the Word is being proclaimed. As a result, churches are being sold or closing down which is causing more problems throughout the world.
2. Church Officers Who Save Remnants in Dependent Fields
Many dependent fields also exist today. These are the dependent church fields where pastors’ kids(PKs) and missionaries’ kids(MKs) reside. God has given these kids amazing advantages. Church officers must help these kids discover them. Also, amazing works will arise if church officers save and help multi-ethnic children who already here(TCKs: third culture kids) and the Remnants from the 237 nations to stand on their own. This is another reason why God has raised church officers.
3. Church Officers Who Save Evangelists
Church Officers and businesspeople are those who save evangelists. Church officers of the Early Church received blessings as patrons(Romans 16:1~2), fellow workers(Romans 16:3~4), and hosts(Romans 16:23) of evangelists. These are the blessings reserved for church officers and businesspeople. Therefore, church officers must support evangelists so that they can share the Gospel without any obstacles. In order to accomplish this, church officers and businesspeople need the Five Powers(Spiritual, Intellectual, Physical, Financial, and Man power). When they receive these powers, strength becomes manifested, healing will take place, and they will stand at the place of the Summit.
[Prayer of the Evangelist] Dear God, please give strength to all the church officers, businesspeople, pastors, and Remnants to save their occupations and academics. Help them to stake their lives on what You desire the most.
