Partnership in Ministry

Partnership in ministry means that we are “workers together” in God’s Kingdom. We labor together for the sake of the kingdom. The Greek word translated workers together is Sunergoo (pronounced synergy) The English word synergy is transliterated from Sunergoo. Synergy means that the sum of the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. As we work together in the kingdom, we will accomplish far much more together than we working separately. The power of partnership is the power of unity. As you send me to thenations is like you going to the nations yourself. This is the power of partnership. You and us become two dead men synergizing for we are all dead in Christ. Your prayer and seed will travel further that you will ever go in your lifetime.

Traveling Ministries in the New Testament

There were traveling ministries in the early church. Initially men and the apostles carried the word as they scattered because of the persecution that arose in Jerusalem. However, Paul and Barnabas are the first recorded organized team of traveling ministries. When the apostle came to Jerusalem at the end of his third missionary journey, he met with only James the Lord’s brother and the elders of the Jerusalem Church. Why did Paul not meet with Peter and the rest of the living apostles of the Lamb? It is unlikely they were in Jerusalem at this point. They must have been scattered in the nations preaching the word. In his epistle to the Corinthians, the apostle wrote “Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife as well as the other apostles and as the brethren of the Lord and Cephas (Peter) (I Corinthians 9:5)?” By this, he implied that they were all traveling with their spouses carrying the doctrine of the apostles.

Paul sought to preach the gospel where Christ “was not yet named.” This implies that he avoided certain locations and territories because they had received the word from other sources. This again will mean there were other traveling ministries apart from himself and his apostolic team. He found pockets of disciples in places he was visiting for the first time. The focus of the early church was the local church. Paul’s missionary travels were based out of Antioch.

How did traveling ministries support themselves in the New Testament?

At Ephesus as in most other places, the apostle Paul worked to support himself and his apostolic team. However, when Jesus called the original twelve apostles they had to leave their jobs to travel with him. During the approximately three years in which Jesus traveled and ministered the scripture does not indicate that he did any other work to support himself and his evangelistic crew. However, we know from the Bible that he had treasurer and was also supported by certain women who had being blessed by his ministry. Christ lived by the gospel and the support of those who had benefited from his ministry. He was focused on the singular purposed of seeking and saving the lost. When he sent out the twelve and the seventy he commanded themto carry neither scrip nor purse. It is also evident from scripture that they lacked nothing. Paul the apostle was quoting the Old Testament in I Corinthians when he said they that preach the gospel must live by the gospel. He quoted from Deuteronomy 25:4 “thou shall not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn” He concluded that this was referring to those who minister about holy things and that they are to live of the temple. This also means that no man should enter the ministry for personal gain. It is a heavenly high and holy calling. No man ought to take this honor upon himself except he that is called. This pattern is also evident in the Old Testament. The priest and levites were not to be concerned about land and property. No man thatwarreth entagleth himself about with the affairs of this life. The minister must endeavor to live above reproach and not be concerned with the affairs of this life. The motive for the work of the ministry is purely for the expansion of God’s kingdom on earth. It is our goal at EndTimes Revival Ministries to pursue and follow the pattern of scripture.

Why another Ministry

We found a need that we want to fulfill. The Acts of the Apostles, which is actually the acts of the Holy Ghost through the apostles, hasno natural conclusion. Why is that? The answer is simply because the Holy Spirit is still at work today. We are still living in the church age though at the end of time. The Book of the Acts of the Apostles is a living historical account of ordinary men who took the great Commission serious. It is the unfolding of the life of the early church as she sought to evangelize Jerusalem, then all of Judea and Samaria and eventually the uttermost part of the earth. As we read the acts of the Apostles and the epistles, we must ask the question why did the gospel spread so quickly? Why is it that in a matter of a few years the Christian faith had become a force to reckon with in the then known world? We understand that there were problems in the early church as there are problems in the church today. I the nineteenth chapter of the book of Acts we find that in only two years that the whole of Asia heard the gospel.  An entire Roman province was evangelized in two years. How could that be? As you study you will understand that the primary focus of the early church was world evangelization. They were successful because of their level of commitment. In their lifetime, being a Christian was a life and death situation. Paul as an apostle was very successful in church planting.  He was a tent maker by profession. His tent making business enabled him to support himself and the apostolic team that traveled with him. However, his primary concern was “to reach the mark of the price of his high calling of God in Christ Jesus”. He constantly sought to finish his course with joy. As he traveled at the end of his third missionary, he continued his progress towards Jerusalem despite repeated warning of bonds and imprisonment. The apostle simply understood that Rome was the extreme limit of his call in God and he was prepared to get there at all cost (Rom. 15:22-24). Paul represents to us a man whose main goal and desire was to complete his God given assignment. He did not enter the ministry for personal gain to the contrary his obedience cost him his earthly security. Paul did not equate gain to godliness (I Tim. 6: 5). He lived at the edge of life. He did not consider his life dear unto himself. He lived with a sense of divine adventure. He sought for mobility in God and not earthly security. He lived with the end in view. There was a focus and a passion to his life. Paul implied in the ninth chapter of Corinthians that when he punched the devil he did it with the military precision and accuracy of a disciplined athlete. He constantly sought to exalt Christ. He did not live unto himself. He lived out his life for God. He simply was a person of destiny. Christ lived his life through the life of the apostle. We cannot duplicate the life of Paul but there is a lot we can learn. His life provides for us an insight of the price of Revival.
