Authentic Kingdom Leadership Series: THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE TEACHER AND LEADER THROUGH WHO THE HOLY SPIRIT TEACHES AND LEADS Being Led of The Spirit In Kingdom Revelation Lets speak such truth with balance however. There are those who believe all they need is the Holy Spirit and that would be spiritually incorrect and naive and is a sure route to only more deception. God has given us apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers who uniformally have the assignment of equipping the saints through divine anointed instruction to do the work of the ministry that the Body would edify itself and build itself up together in love as the Kingdom community the Church is called to be. However, there are those who would have you to believe that all you need is you and the Holy Spirit. Yet God does not break His divine order. While some become fearful of getting caught up in someone else personality there are those people you should cling to as a son does to a father, that the sons thinking is being trained and skill being honed to be all the more effective in the course of their own ministries. Yet more often than not the enemy sneaks in and under a guise of biblical correctness actually promotes division even among those who are all supposed to be speaking the same thing. Ive watched ministries start by saying God said, God said, and Ive watched them fold while they are still running because the people who run them never knew the true order of God in establishing the Church through His apostles and prophets. In other words there are those who are so bound to the pastor model that they need a pastor to give them a sense of order. And on the other side of this twisted deception of the enemy there are those who got enough Kingdom to know what was wrong but go about now in a disorder believing they are led of the Spirit alone but you can witness how out of balance they really are. And lastly, what happens is just what the enemy planned from the beginning and Jesus knew it would be so. Jesus said, Anyone hearing the Word of the Kingdom and understanding it not, the wicked one (poneros - Satan himself) would come and snatch the Word that was sown in that persons heart. Today we have people who believe the word of the Kingdom has been sown in their heart but they dont have the true order of the Kingdom and the evidence is that they dont have the culture. The Word of the Kingdom isnt just that the Kingdom is. The Kingdom comes with a culture of unity, family, fellowship, respect, unselfishness, interdependence and whole truth, not half truths and incomplete concepts as though those concepts are whole truth. So we must help everyone to understand the value of being re-taught by those who not only espouse Kingdom truths, but live the reality of the Kingdom having become the culture Jesus intended. Where this is not present you will find people who become laws unto themselves, having a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. They become ever learning, but never coming to the knowledge of the truth. The Kingdom is not just terminology but its also the culture of them who have submitted themselves to Gods reign and because He is not divided neither can anyone who claims to know the truth be divided from their brothers and sisters. These things anyone who truly knows the Kingdom will affirm as being the Word and order of the Lord. Anyone not giving testimony to these truths and attesting to the reality of what genuine Kingdom citizenship is are bound by a misconception of what it means to be Kingdom and what it means to be taught of the Holy Spirit. There must be order in the House of Prayer, the House of God which is the assembly of the upright and congregation of the righteous. My prayer is that all who have learned the Kingdom from me would return and be the men and women God has called them to be rather than to be divisive because of some repressed need to be seen as the authority or some fear of being led by least of all, my personality. The Holy Spirit will not teach outside of the order of God. He is on assignment to establish the divine order of God within man. To reject the earthly leadership God has ordained is to reject the command of God to obey them that serve you as guides. To reject the guides because you have envy, strife or even fear is to actually reject Jesus who sent them, and therefore God is the one rejected by the same disorder men practice in their pursuit of Him. Who is an Apostle but one that lays the proper foundation of the Church under the anointing of the Holy Spirit by virtue of the assignment and the gift God has ordained. Who is a Prophet but one who must proclaim the mind of God to the people at the present moment. This is not just prophesying ones divine destiny but also proclaiming all that God has said concerning the divine order of the house of God. Who is an evangelist but one gifted to compel men to come in form the North, South, East and West, who by their preaching not only preach the Kingdom but with great faith manifest the miraculous as their unique gift calls for. Who is the Pastor but he who feeds the flock of God that the sheep would be nourished on a diet of that which is good for their growth and maturity that the sheep, too would go and beget sheep because the leader is not intimidated by the maturity of who the sheep become. Who is the Teacher but the one anointed to break down truth as the Holy Spirit teaches through them and gets into the inner ear or hearing of the hearer that faith would take hold and that belief would turn to action and those preached to would see themselves as responsible for walking out the whole counsel of God. And yet the teachers are under more weightier judgement for the accuracy or inaccuracy of what they teach and their failure to teach the Kingdom of God and Christ as they should. Having the Holy Spirit teach us without we voluntarily subjecting ourselves to what the word reveals as the order of God is the beginning pathway of deception committed by many who believe they know God the way He wants to be known. The Holy Spirit will indeed teach you. But He will never lead you outside of the divine order of authentic Kingdom leadership. This is the deception the enemy has sown even among those who love God so much and want to be desperately right so much but who fail to know the divine order God has made available to make all men free. If there are false Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers then there are some authentic ones too. Find the authentic ones and submit yourselves to them. You will be blessed in your obedience and areas you could not see in you that needed healing through the truth will be healed because you yielded to the work of the Holy Spirit in those Hes established as leaders in the Kingdom of God whose only aim is to see you grow and mature as God ordained from the very beginning.
