Learn How To Get A Christian Ministry Started

By Colette Foreman


Many people will find receiving a call for the ministry to be a very good thing, but a lot of challenges will come when starting the work. The reason for this is because; a lot of moral support is required when one is starting a successful church. This will pose as a major challenge to individuals who are not so good in relating with others. Since God is the head of any church, starting one will therefore not be impossible. It may seem as something challenging at first, but getting to know how to get a Christian ministry started will help you.

One thing you have to understand about all this is that the work you will be doing is the work of a higher power who is God. This means that you have to interpret the messages in the right way just as God meant it to be interpreted. This means that you should be having a base knowledge of the bible and how prophets used to deliver their messages.

Gods guidance is essential, God will never call you so that you can fail. God takes pride when his people succeed. God however despises people who put all their trust into other things. There are stories of certain individuals who started humble churches but God since he is a God of multiplication; they own big, live changing churches today.

If you are certain that you have been called by God, it is vital for you to put all your trust and faith in him. Sometimes evil voices can whisper to you making you believe that you are inadequate and lack the ability to lead a church. You have to ignore such voices. Jesus also went through the same but came out victorious, you are therefore not exceptional.

Since discouraging voices will not cease, it is important to equip yourself with the word of God. Know what God says about your life and your ministry. This will ensure that you silence any other voice.

Evil is all around. You need to realize that the devil will always be a threat to what you want to create. There will be challenges and you need resilience to withstand them. This can be gotten from your faith. People will discourage you while others are bound to hate on you. It is however up to you to prove that this does not affect your faith.

It is impossible for you to start a church without having to establish your vision, mission and also your goals. The reason for this is because God is not someone who is disorganized. His people must therefore be well ordered as he himself is orderly. You have to work towards attaining the goals that you have set for your church. Other members also have to be aware of these goals.

You also need to have a plan that you will be able to track your progress with. A disorganized leader is no leader at all. For other people to be able to believe in you and what you are doing, you need to have a precise and working plan.
