Mr Deg
With some Senior Pastors, serving them is a delightsome experience.
To some others, you need grace to survive them.
These 3 groups of leaders, can be very difficult to serve.
Only God can help you survive them.
I don't even advise Assistant Pastors to serve them, unless you are led by God to be there.
1. THE SENIOR PASTOR THAT OPERATES IN FALSEHOOD:
Under this man, things must be arranged. He wants you to prove your loyalty to him by arranging Prophecies and Miracles with him.
My Brother, any loyalty that makes you miss heaven is not worth it.
If he is weak morally, he can be helped by prayers and counseling.
With time, he can change. But when weakness graduates into full blown diabolism and falsehood, leave him to do it alone.
There are genuine Prophets, look for them and serve them, if it is a must you serve under a Prophetic church.
The person who teaches you how to make it by committing sin, has only helped you in time, but has destroyed you in eternity.
IF YOU HAVE TO LIE TO PROVE YOUR LOYALTY, PLEASE RESIGN.
YOUR SENIOR PASTOR DOES NOT HAVE ANOTHER HEAVEN TO TAKE YOU TO.
2. THE SENIOR PASTOR THAT WHENEVER HE IS NOT IN TOWN IF HIS WIFE IS NOT THE ONE PREACHING, A FRIEND OR A SON FROM ANOTHER MINISTRY MUST BE INVITED TO COME AND PREACH:
This one has a serious problem with trust, he has not been healed from the wound of betrayals.
He doesn't want history to repeat itself. He is being careful.
You may never grow under him.
Your potential won't be fulfilled under him.
He is interested in succession and not in sonship.
You will have to believe God to be sent to a Branch, for you to express what God put in you.
I see Assistant Pastors preach in the Ministry of my fathers and Mentors.
I have seen Papa Oyedepo, Papa Ibiyeomie, Pastor KK and several other leaders sit down and a junior minister was the one preaching.
I have always advised Senior Pastors not to bleed on sons who are not responsible for their wounds.
Learn to trust them and move on with them.
3. THE SENIOR PASTOR WHO BELIEVES ONCE YOU COME IN, YOU CAN NEVER GO OUT FOR LIFE:
I also belonged to this school of thought.
No father wants to lose a good son.
But our heavenly Father, the ultimate father has a plan for everyone.
I even prefer you go than for you to stay and corrupt the minds of other followers.
But I have also discovered some exit is for your own good and the good of your ministry.
I did a study some weeks ago on the SEVEN GOOD THINGS THAT HAPPENED TO ABRAHAM AFTER LOT LEFT HIM THAT WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED IF HE WAS WITH ABRAHAM:
Some exit is for you and the Ministry not to go into extinction.
If some people don't go, you won't grow.
In the year 1997, as a student of WORD OF FAITH BIBLE INSTITUTE (WOFBI ONE YEAR FULL TIME CLASS) one of the DAYS Papa Oyedepo came to teach us on THE PRINCIPLES OF MINISTRY, he said God told him I will by this ministry raise the foundations of others ministries. So some of you are sent here to be raised into your own ministry. There are those that will serve here, a few others must be raised into their own ministry. You must know which group you belong to.
So correct and true.
Any Ministry, where other ministries are not raised, is not a new testament Ministry.
If a new testament Ministry, you must occasionally, hear SEPARATE unto me, Paul and Barnabas for the work I have called them into.
Even Paul and Barnabas later SEPARATED because of Mark.
A son must abide in the house forever, is established on 2 platforms.
Those that will serve you and die with you internally and those that will serve you and die with you externally.
Every Apostolic Ministry must have Apostolic procedures for peaceful disengagement.
I beg you sir, Don't keep a man that God is sending away.
He will become a Jonah in your boat.
Hope you know Jonah was a Genuine Man of God? But was wrongly located.
Innocent souls suffered, because of one man that must leave their Ministry boat.
With Jesus in your Boat, there will still be storm from time to time, imagine if you now add Jonah to Jesus in one boat.
You will attract the Problem that you can survive and the one you can never survive.
Jesus must remain in the boat for you to survive and Jonah must be thrown out of the boat for you to survive.
So it is for your own good for your Jonah to go.
Remember, with Jonah, there is no journey.
