In Ministry; God is looking for people to send and preach His word, but He is going to send men and women who are read and have differentiated themselves from others, so be not transformed according to these generations that you may be different. Each and every one on this world whether born again (saved) or not was sent to do something, there is a purpose why you are on this world and there is an account for each person for whatever Thing he/she has done; some are workers, servants, doctors, business men, name them. But when you entered into a new life (new birth by the Spirit, and the water, and the blood of Jesus) that is being born again or born of God. God chose and called you for a purpose that you contribute towards the building of the Kingdom. He saved us and called us with an Holy calling, not according to what our works were, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Jesus Christ, before the world began. 2Tim 1:19. Even Before you were in the Womb, God knew you, before you came out of the womb; He sanctified you and ordained you a minister to the nations. Jer 1:15 Thank God that He Knows us by names. Ex 33:12. God says, you are my witnesses, and my servants whom I have chosen: that you know and believe me and understand that I am He, saith the LORD. IS 43:10. Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord Jesus Christ, for if you are ashamed of Jesus and His Words in this sinful and adulterous generation: Him shall also the Son of Man be ashamed of you. 2Tim 1:8, Mk 8:38. So be strong and courageous, fear not because faithful is He that called you. 2thess 5:24. He is right there to strengthen you in ministry. And also let no man despise your youth (new minister, to salvation) but be an example of the believers, in Word, in conversation, in charity (love) in Spirit, in Faith and in purity, therefore neglect not the gift in you. 1 Tim 4:12,14. God bless you. Ministry starts from Leadership of the House even at Home Salvation starts from Home, why at home, because true colours of a person are known from home, therefore salvation, which has not yet reached the home has not yet changed your life. Let them know that you are saved. In the bible we find that Jesus takes Zechariah to home for salvation. So same to preaching, preach the word to home, village, and your neighbours. Then while preach the Word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. But watch you in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry. 2 Tim 4:2-5. But Oh, man or woman of God flee the worldly lusts, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, Love, Patience, and Meekness. 1 Tim 6:11, for a bishop must be blameless, the man or woman of God must be perfect thoroughly furnished unto all good works. 2Tim 3:17. God bless you
