    FIVE-FOLD OFFICES – Pst. Ife Adetona

    There are three kinds of Apostles: Apostles of the Lamb (the 12), Foundational or News Testament Apostles (Paul & Others) and then, the Modern Day Apostles.

    Before now, Apostles are generally explained as those who plant churches but the understanding has gone far beyond that. It is not that God’s plan changed but our understanding improves as times & seasons unfold God’s definition.

    An Apostle is a massive Church planter across different territories.
    Or- an apostle is a pioneer and groundbreaker of a particular territory.
    Or- an apostle revives a particular doctrine in the body of Christ.
    Or- an apostle ushers a generation into a move or dimension of the Spirit.

    A person who combines the Prophet office and the Teacher office is an apostle. That is because he is likely to revive a particular Biblical doctrine(s) or truth or move.

    PROPHET
    There are also TWO KINDS of Prophets. Foundational or News Testament Prophets or Modern Day Prophets. A prophet is usually a preacher with the regular manifestation of five to six prophetic gifts (word of wisdom, word of knowledge, discerning of spirits, diverse kinds of tongues, interpretation of tongues & prophecy). The degree would be quite high in at least one of those gifts and manifest adequately in others. Some prophets try to teach, they try to reignite a doctrine and also try to establish new doctrines. These prophets usually commit massive blunders while trying to do so. Meanwhile, they can desire the teaching gift but they need to be humble to learn how it is done. Prophets usually have healings and they are more evangelistic than pastoral.

    PASTOR
    “A Pastor has an organized Church”. Sorry, I mean we used to think all Pastors must have an organized denominational church. It is not so. A pastor is a shepherd with sheep in an organized setting (denominational or non-denominational). A pastor preaches or teaches. A pastor tenders, nurses and watches individuals NOT a building or chairs.

    EVANGELIST
    If you break new grounds, if you have massive signs and wonders including healing and miracles EVEN if you see Jesus but if you do not have an organised membership (pastoral service), you are not an apostle, you are an evangelist. You are a great man of God and not the least of all. Evangelists are also less prophetic. Many evangelists exhort or preach and some (a few) teach.

    TEACHER
    Actually, a minister of God either preaches or teaches. But God raises people in the office of a Teacher to teach concrete Biblical knowledge and doctrines. They have both pastoral and evangelistic tendencies because they win souls and groom those souls. This differentiates them from teachers in the help ministry.

    HELP MINISTRY
    If you sing, you’re not an evangelist. If you act drama, you are not an evangelist EXCEPT if you are an evangelist that sings or an evangelist that acts drama. Else, you are in the help ministry.

    Note, I am not explaining or criticizing titles, I am only explaining offices. In heaven, many ministers will come forward to receive the reward of planting a Church but a woman in the help ministry of prayer who birth the Church on her knees will be called forward. The Help Ministry is big and recognised. God can call men into it as full-time or part-time. For further study, I have three free books in circulation on this.

    NOTE
    You will only grow into the full realization of your calling. You can’t get there the day you stepped into the ministry. Also, title does not necessarily promote, growth does.

    Many will not grow into even the first phase of their ministry and calling till they die. So, we must take heed to ensure that we fulfil our ministry.

    Let me remind you that, if you are called into the ministry, the journey has not begun until you answer FULL TIME.

  • UNDERSTANDING RHEMA AND LOGOS

    UNDERSTANDING RHEMA AND LOGOS

    When I was on campus, I used to hear people shouting RHEMA whenever a man of God said something deep from the word of God. But in no time I emulated this culture of shouting RHEMA whenever I want to appraise a man of God’s teachings even without knowing the meaning, but as time went by, I got to know that rhema is a Greek word that means the word of God. I will be opening your eyes to the full understanding of this word in the lines of this book.

    Let’s go a bit theological, the word Rhema is a Greek word, spelled as ῥῆμα, transliterated as rhēma and pronounced as “rhray’-mah”. The word Rhema is found seventy (70) times in the New Testament. I will be bringing five of it to your attention for in-depth study before I tell you the definition of the word Rhema.

    A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word (rhema) that Jesus had said to him, Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times. And when he thought about it, he wept.

    Mark 14:72

    While Annas and Caiaphas were high priests, the word (rhema) of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

    Luke 3:2

    Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in Me? The words (rhema) that I speak to you I do not speak on My authority, but the Father who dwells in Me does the works.

    John 14:10

    Who will tell you words (rhema) by which you and all your household will be saved.

    Acts 11:14

    It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words (rhema) that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

    John 6:63

    From the above bible passages above, you are going to see that the word of God used in this context is spoken or written specifically, they are the words God speaks out not to everyone, but to an individual. Yes! The word God has spoken to you is your own Rhema, it is meant for your dealings. They are the words the Lord has revealed to you, they’re the raw materials for your desired wonders, they serve as lamps to your feet and light to your path. They are the words that were sorted for whenever one is about to take crucial steps. Now, note this, every Rhema must be rooted in the logos which shall be explained next.

    2.LOGOS

    To explain logos to you, I will like us to go theological as well. Logos is a Greek word, spelled as λόγος, transliterated as logos and pronounced as log’-os. The word Logos appears three hundred and thirty-one times (331) in the New Testament, but let me give you just five (5) instances of where it was used to explain what it is to you.

    Therefore whoever hears these sayings (logos) of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock.

    Matthew 7:24

    The sower sows the word (logos).

    Mark 4:14

    So it was, as the multitude pressed about Him to hear the word (logos) of God, that He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret.

    Luke 5: 1

    That the saying (logos) of Jesus might be fulfilled which He spoke, signifying by what death He would die.

    John 18:32

    Then the word (logos) of God spread, and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith.

    Acts 6:7

    Critically, look at the contextual use of “word,” you will see that it was spoken or written generally to people, it was not meant for a particular person.

    HOW DO THEY RELATE?

    Logos can be likened to a well, while Rhema can be likened to your bucket, it is the bucket that draws from the well. This means that all Rhema are drawn from the Logos, any Rhema that is not having the background of the logos should be discarded and disregarded.

    Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

    2 Timothy 2:15

    Paul was admonishing Timothy as I want to admonish you. He said Timothy should study the Logos because it is how studious he is in logos that God is going to examine, that will make God approve a Rhema word for him and remember, that the Rhema word is the raw materials for any wonders you desire.

  • ADVICE FOR THE YOUTHS

    ADVICE FOR THE YOUTHS

    Dear Youth,
    Life will not always give you the luxury of time to pursue your purpose. Today, you’re all over seminars and lectures, trying to discover your purpose but how much energy are you putting into fulfilling it? You thought you have all the time?

    I know you wish to marry early too but do you know that the earlier you get married, the harder it is to pursue your purpose if you are not already grounded in it?

    A time is coming, coming fast, what matters won’t be the purpose but how you can make money and put food on the table- be it a man or woman.

    What I am saying is that, if you don’t give it all to your purpose now, you may not be able to go after it later on. Look around you, aside from full-time ministers, aside from those in the medical field, how many people are in their purpose? They hope to do it later.

    Mind you, that you’re a minister does not make it automatic and that’s why you see many people in the part-time! The fear of total dependency on God and suffering forces many who are meant for full-time to stay at the crossroad.

    When I asked some people their age, I hear- am just 30! Just 30? Do you think that I am 40? Or do you think I am 35? Just assume that the only time you have to fulfil your purpose is between now and when you’re 30.

  • QUICK FACT ON HOLY COMMUNION – Pst. Ife Adetona

    QUICK FACT ON HOLY COMMUNION – Pst. Ife Adetona

    Do you know you can serve Holy Communion to yourself or to your family as the priest that you are?

    Smith Wigglesworth revealed that the secret to his long life and sound health is taking communion every day at their dining table.

    Do you think Jesus ordered a different or special food for communion? No. He took a part out of their supper (Passover meal) and separated that portion as communion. You can separate a portion of your meal and do the same.

    Mathew 26:26 As they were eating, Jesus took some bread and blessed it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, “

    The problem is that we limit communion to “remembrance”. What if we see it as a healing substance or the life of Christ in a man? A lot of people got their healing via communion in our meetings. Many received sound health and some others got strength over addictions.

  • RUSSIA VS UKRAINE WAR II- Pst Ife Adetona

    RUSSIA VS UKRAINE WAR II- Pst Ife Adetona

    Russia did believe that when they roll their tanks into Ukraine, they will surrender or flex some muscles but in a week or two, it will all be over. I guess they thought it would work out just like when the Taliban took over Afghanistan in 2021 or when Russia seized Crimea in 2014.

    Don’t dare a man ready to die fighting. Zelensky, Ukraine’s President said they will not surrender until the last man is dead. They defended their territory.

    The USA called the President, “let’s fly you out of Ukraine to a safe place”. He replied: ” I don’t need a ride, give me weapons”. The US and NATO felt, “well, let’s help these guys with weapons to defend themselves. We know they won’t last but at least, they would know that we tried”. Weapons were supplied, Ukraine soldiers used them well, and they lasted the night. The world was again surprised. And said, okay, let’s send them more weapons then.

    Zelensky wanted to drag NATO into the war by calling for a “no-flight zone”. If NATO declares a no-flight zone over Ukraine as they have freely done in some warring territories, it means they will shoot down any Russian aircraft in Ukraine’s air space. If they do that, Putin has an excuse to attack the US or any NATO country. That will result in an escalation because NATO will have to fight back. That is simply World War III because North Korea and other Russian friends can join in. NATO said it’s not the wise thing to do.

    Meanwhile, more defensive weapons began to pour in. Note the word “defensive”. Ukraine has not shot down a fly in Russia since the start of the war. If they do, Russia has an excuse to wipe out Ukraine from the map with more sophisticated weapons. So far, they’ve only been defending.

    More support rained into Ukraine on the following day. Foods, basic needs, transportation for fleeing citizens into other European countries especially Poland, the next-door neighbour. Russia was going to cut Ukraine’s internet. They ran to Elon Musk the richest man who has a satellite in the space for help, he gave them under 24-48 hours. Supports and cheering everywhere. People volunteered to go fight for them from various countries as well.

    NATO decided to join the battle but indirectly. Aside from supplying weapons, they supplied intelligence and training. Intelligence is key to winning any war! It is reported that it is NATO that reveals to Ukraine where the Russian army is, they tell them where to shoot and when to shoot. That way, they have reported the killing of up to eight major army generals of Russia. That’s unprecedented.

    Europe and the USA also started slamming economic bans, travel bans and especially targeted bans on Russian billionaires hoping those billionaires will influence Putin’s decision. Even private companies banned Russia. It was enormous.

    The toughest of all the bans is the OIL BAN. I told you that Europe is dependent on Russian oil. The US is also a major customer. Banning the oil would mean starving yourself while trying to make your enemy suffer. Putin had thought that they can’t do it since the war will be over in a few days anyway. But the longer it takes, the more the pressure on those countries to act selflessly. Biden took the bold step. Some other European and NATO countries followed suit. Yet, in most quarters, it is still a partial ban and not a total ban. And they still buy the oil through third parties. Like they won’t buy from Russia but can buy from a third party who bought from Russia. However, the ban led to increasing in demand, shortage in supply thereby, increase in price. This affects every country and every man in the world.

    Negotiation is always the twin in every war. It is believed that war could only end on the table. Ukraine and Russia began to discuss. Russia listed her demands- “give us Crimea officially, the land we seized from you the other time. Also, allow those guys who have been trying to break away to go in peace. And also, forget about your dream of joining NATO. And lastly, we don’t want you to have military again”. Russia quickly erased that last one and replaced it with, “your military should be neutral, it should have nothing to do with NATO or other country’s military”.

    At the beginning of the negotiation, Ukraine was ready to succumb. They told Russia, we will forgo NATO ambition. We will look into those guys that want to break away provided we can address the needs of those living there that wish to stay with Ukraine. The piece of land you stole, you know we can’t give you. We may just pretend that it’s yours but we won’t make it official.

    As the negotiation was on, the war was on and Ukraine was making gains. At least, they were beating back Russian troops and have a large support base. I believe they started backtracking on succumbing at that point.

    I should tell you about the approach of Russia in this war. Russia didn’t want to wipe out Ukraine. That will be too much and unforgivable. They only want to oppress them and wear them out by destroying their country, the buildings and kill people to order to pressurize the government to surrender and say, “it’s enough, we can’t take it anymore”. If Russia has it’s way, they also want to seize the capital, remove or assassinate the president and install another person. But Ukraine’s president seems to have a coconut head. His statement has been, ” you have to kill the last man. You have started already, you must kill us all”.

    In all sincerity, the world powers and NATO especially could help Ukraine negotiate its way out quickly. They just need to give Russia some concession here and there. But they are not ready to do that for some reasons:

    “At this point, if we give Putin what he wants, he would think he is smart. He could do the same for another country tomorrow.”

    “If Ukraine is ready to fight, why should we stop them? Let’s see how much Russia can go”. We may even use the window to study Russia to know their weak points against future wars”.

    When a teacher is beating a student, the teacher also gets tired. NATO believes that Russia is getting tired too of the loss at the war and the sanctions. “Let’s allow them to suffer for long so they won’t even try such again ever in their life”.

    Lastly, they are like, ” what tells you that Ukraine will not even win this war. We thought they would surrender in 7days but it’s over 70 days already and they are still standing. They should hold on a little more.

    What’s your TAKE AND best advice for UKRAINE?

  • DEVELOPING READING HABIT

    DEVELOPING READING HABIT

    😰I’ve been trying to be a good reader but I do lose my zeal a long way

    😰I planned to be reading 2 books monthly, but this is the 7th month of the year, and I’ve not been able to read up to 5 books

    😰 I used to push myself to read but books are always boring to me

    😰 I’ve done everything in my capacity to be a good reader but all are not just working.

    These and many more are the complaints of so many great minded people outside there. There was a time I was in this mess as well, but when I discovered that for me to be great in life book reading is not an option, If Jesus, Daniel, Paul, Luke, and many great men in the Bible age and our century are functions of book, and I wish to be enlisted in their ranks, then I must consciously look for the way to develop the reading culture in me.

    It was the 7th of January, 2020, My Spiritual father(Pastor Ife Adetona) told me that he just finished reading the 11th book (big books)of the year and this stroke a chord in me and I took up the challenge via some steps he gave me. And by the grace of God, I read 53 books in that same year and since then reading at least 60 books (excluding the books of the Bible) in a year has been my yearly goal.

    #1. KNOW THAT THERE ARE TYPES OF BOOKS

    You must firstly sustain the understanding that we have 2 major types of books, it’s either Mini or Voluminous books, for you to start developing this habit, don’t start by moving closer to voluminous books, start with mini-books.

    Mini books are books that won’t take your time before you finish reading them, they are mostly less than 100pages with very bold fonts inside but voluminous books are books that will take your time, you can even go on days before you finish them, it mostly more than 100 pages and some are less than 100 pages but with very small font size and can take you days as well. Starting the development of a reading culture with voluminous books is like saying you want to start your academics from tertiary institutions and neglecting the primary and secondary schools.

    #2. UNDERSTANDING CONCEPTS

    What some people use to hunt for is to read books, you must first identify your area of interest and go for it first. Are you starting with Spiritual books? Which concept is your area of interest? Faith? Prosperity?Healing? Deliverance? Prayer? Other areas of interest may be your personal development, human and resource management, leadership etc.
    The understanding of the concept you need will magnetise you to the books to read at a particular period.

    #3. AUTHORS

    While developing the reading habits, go for interesting authors, some authors use too much grammar which will always make book reading boring to you. You may want to ask how are you going to know interesting authors? Go to the introduction or the first chapter of any book, you’ll know how boring or interesting the book is going to be. The first book I firstly finished reading was “The Communion of Holy Spirit” By Pastor Ife Adetona.it was the first page of the book that created a craving for the whole book in me.

    You can also go for recommended authors, many people love listening to messages, when you heard a preacher recommend an author, It will also help you in developing reading habits. Same with Popular authors as well.

    #4. INTENTIONALITY

    In developing this habit, you have to know that it’s your responsibility, so you have to be intentional about it, to be intentional about it, take note of these;

    A. Set a specific goal on book reading, and this goal must be fact and not fat, saying I want to read 50 books in a month is a fat goal, the fact goal is the one that is attainable when coupled with your schedule. This calls for intentionally sitting down and planning it out.
    B. It must be Time-bound; to realize your goal monthly you have to set a daily goal for it, which means that there must not be a day that will go without you opening to read a book, in actualizing this, you must decide to be reading a certain number of chapters per day or schedule a particular number of minutes for book reading daily, E.g I must read for 1hour every day or I must cover 2 chapters daily out of a 10 chapters book.

    C. Have a reading mentor: The role of a reading mentor is that you will be accountable to such fellow, S/he must be able to query you if you didn’t report to them on daily basis.

    #5. READING TECHNOLOGY

    With Reading technology, you can read faster using a reading application, the one I use mostly is @voice, just type it on Google play, and you’ll see the image beneath this paragraph there, just download it and do the necessary settings. With the reading application, you can increase and decrease the reading speed rate and cover many pages in fewer minutes.

    #6.SOFT COPIES vs HARD COPIES

    Some people planned to start reading books but couldn’t start because of money, the money attached to soft copies is free compared to the amount on hard copies, Even there are some soft copies that you can even get for free. Visit Fountain publisher through available links to access some books of your choice.

  • MUMMY G. O

    MUMMY G. O

    If not that “Mummy G.O” overplayed her hand and added to the scripts…if she had stayed with the scripts like her predecessors and simply condemn Baba Adeboye, Prophet Obadare, Bishop Oyedepo, Arch Bishop Benson Idahosa, Bimbo Odukoya and others who are the regular mentions when it comes to their hellish vision–may be you would have believed her. May be you would have bought her books. May be you would have distributed her tapes. May the LORD help you.

    Hear this, any vision that makes it looks harder for a believer to enter heaven and makes hell easier to go to IS FROM HELL in order to discourage you from the heavenly race.

    It is very difficult for a believer (a person who confesses Jesus as Lord and lives in the consciousness of that confession) to miss heaven and quite easy to make heaven. A believer cannot be on the way to hell and not know it. It is not something you enter into by mistake.

    While you are busy praying, groaning and crying to God to help you to make heaven- angels are busy saying to you that heaven is not a problem but your dominion here on the earth. You are asking for the Kingdom of Heaven, God is saying no problem but you haven’t occupied the earth with the power of the gospel. See- you can’t reign on the earth as His priest and His king and lose heaven.

    I have said this 100 times- some have chosen to go to heaven like the poor Lazarus but I have chosen to go like the rich Abraham.

  • Pastor’s Diary: Dispensing Value

    Pastor’s Diary: Dispensing Value

    I met with one of my Discipler on campus some weeks ago, when we he first saw me what He said was that since many years we see last, I didn’t increase or decrease in height and width and I was laughing. And I started to be looking at my stature and campus memories begins to be coming back to me.

    When I had the opportunity to be the Central Christian Body President and we were to be welcoming the freshers to campus and be helping them with their registration, you’ll see some freshers just reacting to you as if you’re their younger brother and saying “Sir” (giving accolade) to my subordinates that are having big stature than I do.

    I even caught one to my fellowship and when he got to the Wednesday prayer meeting, he was trying to prove spirituality by telling us some “spiritual vision” of which when I checked in the Spirit, I saw that it was given so that we can know that he is spiritual. Some will even be greeting me and be telling me “How far” and I’ll exchange with I’m fine sir😂

    But as time goes on, some of them knew that I was the president at the break time fellowship on campus, Just a ministration I took wiped off what my stature had painted in their mentality and defines whom I am to them. After that ministration, they started to be bending their posture before greeting me, and before leaving campus ALL of them started to be calling me their Dad and I mentored so many of them to the point that they started bringing up children as well.

    Not on campus alone, I’ve been to so many places to minister that, at the introduction that I’ll be the one that will minister, it will be obvious in so many people’s faces that they are disappointed, I was even at a place that immediately I got there the ushers have welcomed me like a member before the man of God that invited me to minister came around but after my ministration in those places, what I do receive I exchange of how I was initially treated is Honor. Why Honor? Because of the value, I dispense while ministering.

    Dear Pastor, Don’t take any opportunity to stand on the pulpit for granted, Don’t be discouraged by the numbers of people you want to minister to, but think about value, think about what you can add to the lives of your audience, think about the souls of men. Dispense value because the value will command honor.
