Something To Ponder Today…………….For years the enemy has been subtle about infiltrating Gods Church with lies. One of the biggest ones is that if you have been called to the Fivefold Ministry as outlined in Ephesians 4:11 -13, you need to wait until other people call you by that name.  There is a train of thought that your identity is validated when others tell you who you are.  But Psalm 139:16 says that God saw your unformed body and all the days ordained for you were written in Gods book before one came to be. This means that before you were born you were called.  John 10:27 says Gods sheep hear his voice, I know them and they follow me.  These words I am quoting are written in the Bible which is the Constitution of the Kingdom of God.  If we can hear the voice of God and He called us before we were even formed, why would we have to wait for man to call us something that Father, Son and Holy Spirit has been calling us?  Once the King tells us, He will send us to sit under those that teach us and equip us, He will confirm to you and lead you.  You do not need to keep it a secret.  If the Lord directs you to state who you are, you need to do just that.  The Enemy of our soul has convinced Religious folks to tell the church this lie because he does not want you to know your own Identity.  Really think about this………..I dare to say the religious folk need to repent (turn away and align their thoughts with Gods) of ever saying this to the body of Christ.  If you know you are an Apostle, Prophet or and Evangelist the last thing that Satan wants you to do is have you tell anyone because he knows the more you say I am a Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist the more you will start acting like one.  The enemy is a Legalist his job is to keep us from knowing our true Identity.  We are a Royal Priesthood!!!  He is the father of all lies that is why he likes to make us feel that if we walk in what the Lord is calling us to walk in, that makes us arrogant. The truth is that saying who you are proves to the Lord you have faith to believe what He himself has called you to.   And as a result He will empower you to walk in the power and authority of your calling.  When you walk in it, is when others will call you that. But their will always be an unbelieving generation who will try to squelch your calling as the Bible says the Wheat and the Chaff grow together. A citizen of the Kingdom is never  afraid to be who The King of Kings created them to be.
