Isaiah
6:8
Then
I heard the Lord asking, "Whom should I send as a messenger
to this people? Who will go for us?" I said, "Here I
am. Send me."
Greeting,
thank you for visiting with us, we hope and pray that Chaplain
Fellowship will bless you in some humble way. The majority of
ministry and missionary activity in the early Church and Ministry
was accomplished by nonprofessionals, ordinary men and women involved
in secular work as their occupations. Jesus entrusted the laity
"ordinary people" with major responsibilities
of spreading the Gospel. He took fishermen from their boats, He
made them fishers of men. Jesus knew that ordinary people because
of their life experences would become extraordinary when empowered
by the Holy Spirit. When the Lord calls us into His ministry He
does not place any limitations on us. We are only limited by our
own imaginations, or those we allow others to place on us..
Romans
12:1-4-8 - Just as each of us
has one body with many members, and these members do not all have
the same function, so in Jesus Christ we who are many form one
body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different
gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man’s gift is
prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it
is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if
it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to
the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership,
let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do
so cheerfully.
Credentials:
The authority of Jesus was opposed because He was not an approved
religious leader. He did not hold the credentials of a scribe
or Pharisee. They questioned His authority because He was a carpenter's
son from the poor village of Nazareth: Please remember this and
let no one stand in the way of your calling into the Lords' ministry.
Galatians
6:4- You should each judge
your own conduct. If it is good, then you can be proud of what
you yourself have done, without having to compare it with what
someone else has done.
The
Lord has called each of us to live for a cause a lot greater than
ourselves. If He were to asked you today what have you done for
the poor, the suffering or the needy, what could you say? Jesus
had a special place in His heart for the poor. Spend some time
with the Lord and ask Him how you may use your gifts and talents
to improve your own life, the life of the poor, the suffering
or the needy within your own communities.
John
14:12 -13 - “I tell you
the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I
have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with
the Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do
it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. This you
can count on if your faith and your heart are true. I have seen
it time and time again in my own life.
Chaplain
Fellowship Ministries is about the great commission by recruiting
good hardworking people who have been there to go out into the
world, spreading the gospel, going to where the suffering and
pain is, not waiting for them to come to us. We have been given
a vision and a wonderful calling to build a mighty ministry for
the Glory of the Lords'
Kingdom. The apostle Paul said that all believers in Christ are
part of "one body". And if one part suffers, "all
the member parts suffer". Therefore, we must ask ourselves:
Do we grieve when a brother or sister is in trouble? Do we experience
sorrow and pain in our hearts when a child of God is stricken
with afflictions and trials? If not, we must get on our knees
and ask our Lord and Savior to help us become the kind of people
who can understand and share the pain and suffering of others.
James
2:14 - Dear brothers and sisters,
what's the use of saying you have faith if you don't prove it
by your actions? That kind of faith can't save anyone. Chaplains
go where others would never dream of going. Please never let anyone
tell you that you are not good enough, or smart enough, listen
to your hearts and following the Lords' calling
in your lives. Many claim to have faith, but my question always
is, are they faithful? Faith to the unfaithful is worthless. Just
something to think about.
When
Jesus asks us to follow and obey Him, His call comes with the
promise of the protection, guidance, sustenance, and rest that
we need at that time in our lives. His call is suited to our needs,
He knows us intimately, He walked among the poor, the out cast,
the forgotten and the lost. Please remember one thing, if you
don't remember anything else! You make a living from what you
get in life, but you make a life from what you give." We
as chaplains must have Jesus as our Lord and Savior in our everyday
lives, without Him we have nothing, without Him we are nothing.
James
2:13 - "For judgment is
without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs
over judgment." Does anyone not want a merciful judgment
from God, before whom all must stand?
Please
don't just read scripture, stop and think about what it means.
There is always a lesson to be learned. Reading scripture means
nothing if we don't act on it. One night I was watching a program
on TV about prisons and inmates. One of the cases was about a
young man who served 16 months in prison for stealing a loaf of
bread and a can of tuna to feed his wife and two children who
were homeless and hungry. I can not help but wonder who the Lord
was most displeased with; the man who stole to feed his family
when they were hungry, or the people who put him in prison for
16 months leaving his family on the street, homeless, for taking
less than five dollars worth of groceries to feed his family?
I find such thinking very sad, where was the mercy in this situation?
which is just one of the thousands if not hundreds of thousands
of stories we hear today. Chaplain Gibson
John
13:35 - Your love for one another
will prove to the world that you are my disciples.”
This
is something that we had all better start thinking about! Help
each other and those in need, follow your hearts and let the love
of Jesus Christ show through you.
Becoming
Ordained: Those who join Chaplain Fellowship Ministries become
legally ordained as nondenominational chaplains and ministers.
This gives them the freedom to minister without all the politics
and religious entanglement that may have kept them from following
their calling in the past. Becoming an ordained chaplain and minister
opens up a whole new world of opportunities and a totally different
way to reach those who are in need or suffering. Many pastors
who have become ordained as member and chaplains start feeling
the blessings once again that they had forgotten, or had not felt
in many years. Caplains become living bibles by showing the love
of Jesus through their actions, love, mercy, kindness, compassion
and understanding, not just telling them how much Jesus loves
them, chaplains show them His love. Folks you can make a difference!
Something we all need to think about, "to the world we might
just be one person, but to one person we may be the world".
Never
let your lack of education or life history keep you from pursuing
what GOD has called you to do, we have all made mistakes. It has
always amazed me when some people who call themselves Christians
go out of their way to try and belittle, degrade and hurt their
brothers and sisters. The
Body of Christ is made up of many different parts, not just those
who consider themselves to be self righteous desiring to place
themselves above others. How
can anyone say that they have the love of Jesus in their heart
and turn around and attack those who following their calling by
serving in His ministry. Many have no idea that 70% of Chaplains
serving in the world today do not get paid; they are volunteers
working to help make this world just a little bit better for those
who have nothing and no where to turn in their time of need. I
don't know about you, but I will always do anything and everything
I can to stay faithful to the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ, and the ministry that HE has called me to.
