Ministry
My ministry begins at home.
2 Tim 4
Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit,[b] in faith, in purity. 13 Till I come, give attention to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 14 Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership. 15 Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all. 16 Take heed to yourself and to the doctrine. Continue in them, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
Learning points
1) I am young but the Lord has exhorted me to set an example to the believers ( not non believers).
2) How do i set the example? Speech, behaviour, love, spirit, faith and purity.
how does one set the example in faith, purity and spirit?
in spirit- move in the spirit. show the believers what it is to abide in christ. how one's life is a spiritual journey and not one which is in the flesh
in faith - let my life be one that is marked by faith in god and purity of heart. let this be evident to those around, esp the believers.
4) take note of my life and my doctrine. be completely committed to them.
5) a result of this whole hearted commitment will be progress that will be witnessed by all around.
amen.
3) give attention to the reading of the word. this applies to myself, my children and my campus ministry. the word should be emphasised.
4)use the gift that has been given me. what is the gift? the gift is one of prophecy, encouragement and healing. use it

Amen, our ministry begins at home. Gen 1 v28 Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the earth.
The first command starts at home, then dominion over the earth.
