A Great Release Of Grace

 

Because the battles are so severe and oppression is a big part of everyday life, there must be a release of anointing upon the church. This anointing will only come as we seek Gods presence and surrender totally into His will. There is no way that the enemy is going to win over a church that worships and seeks God sincerely and also for the individual. You must believe the word of God and confess your faith in the Word. Lets give it all we've got and God will give us great grace to see us through. An Apostolic anointing and ministry is on the horizon just at hand are miracles we have never seen before, so hold on. Ephesians 2:19-22

Grace is the ability to do what ordinarily could not be done.

Acts 4:33 great power and great grace. The word "great" here is Greek for megas, from which we derive our commonly used prefix "mega--," meaning very large in size or proportion. The apostles had mega-grace. Gods mega-grace gives the church all the gifts and abilities it needs to fulfill the Great Commission. Without this grace, the Church will not be able to finish the work. We cannot settle for being average; Our Commission is not an average commission. Mega-grace will release singers, musicians, finances, helps, property, ministries---everything necessary to get the job done.

Acts 2:42-47

Look at the characteristics of the early church:

1. Apostolic Doctrine. Sound doctrine that teaches Christ being the foundation, the name of Jesus as our authority, the gifts and fullness of the Holy Ghost. (Acts 2:38)

2. Fellowship. Meaning partnership, participation, and communion. This causes strong participation from believers gathered together and fellowship with one another.

3. Breaking of Bread. Communion services not only partaking of the communion bread but eating of the living bread as we commune in the Word of God.

4. Prayers. Prayer meeting were a vital part of the church at Jerusalem. The apostolic anointing releases a strong dimension of prayer into the church.

5. Fear. This is a reverential fear of the Lord. (Acts 5:11) Great fear is another distinguishing mark of the apostolic ministry.

6. Signs and Wonders. A miracle ministry will be poured out again in the true apostolic churches.

7. Unity. All things in common. Oneness of purpose and mind was a characteristic of the early Church

8. Giving. A spirit of giving was upon them to help with all the needs for the ministry.

9. Continuing Daily. THEY WORSHIPED REGULARLY AT THE TEMPLE AND THEY MET IN SMALL GROUPS FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE.

10. Gladness. A Spirit of joy was in the city. (Romans 14:17)

11. Praise. Strong praise is released through the apostolic anointing. Centers of praise and celebration. It will be very important for breaking down strongholds. (Psalms 149:8)

12. Favor. The whole city was favorable toward the apostles. God gives His people favor.
