WRITER’S NOTE: I somehow have been given God’s discernment of lamp stands…by sheer unmerited apostolic grace..and after 40 + years of being sent by God to sit in audiences, attend major conferences, speak in traveling apostolic ministry,and it all started SIMPLY ….
……I just was curious and wanted to know a lot about the LORD and how to be a MINISTER and to better understand HOLY SPIRIT…PLUS amazing senior pastor apostolic JOYFUL down to earth, caring, DISCERNING AND ALWAYS PERCEIVING father and mother.
ZERO BIBLE COLLEGE OR SEMINARY: But yours truly did ASK the LORD if HE wanted me to go (as in PUH-LEASE…) yet He directed NOT TO but instead, led me this verse: I JOHN 2:27
“But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.”
I now refer to this as I JOHN 2:27 Apostolic Home Schooled By the Holy Spirit
R: The staid, apostolically proven MEGA LAMPSTAND /CHURCH, MEDIA, NATIONAL, EVEN MANY GLOBAL. May risk getting complacent, accustomed and some by mistake, harden into a Big Religious Business System, akin to an imperceptive, may become super time consumed, far more into business, achieving, self help preserving business revenue status quo..than keeping all RELATIONSHIPS as top Lampstand priority (as in Lost First Real Love Rev. 2:1-7).
It needs ongoing major prayer to recognizes changes in the Game Plan, to tweak, repeatedly adjust infrastructure because what it avows, package and either REGARDS as TOP PRIORITY (business or human real persons) will then come way down (via spiritual legalism, (not a lot of BIG Phariseeism usually noted in many of mega) or producing hard, cold Bless Me, Our Four and No More undependable self centered, Boanerge, celebrity Diva, plastic insincere fruit.
Among some of the various recognized but very different types of MEGA LAMPSTANDS: apostolic King Solomon, Mother Teresa, Christian TV, apostolic multiplied mega churches, colleges, Bible Leader Groups who have training centers with a national doctrinal affecting flow, ETC.
Many MEGA LAMPSTANDS are some of the safest places for newbies, long term attenders, unless you feel surrounded by inauthentic, plastic, imperceptive, unloving true remaining trustworthy fruit. ONE REAL REASON WHY: Most often the Senior Overseer of a MEGA WORK has been proven , repeatedly sifted and winnowed to remove much of the NT Phariseeism, OT Lexical critical Law (if not ALL) which hinders the move of God’s Holy Spirit in much smaller lamp stands.
FEAR for any MEGA MINISTRY: if they get complacent. self satisfied, slowly morph into the Lost First Love Big Religious Empire Formula Using, Fast Quick Fix, minus LAMPSTAND still pioneering OVERSEER APOSTLE (he/she) taking time apart to self examine, perceive directly from the Lord what HE truly wants, but then also making time apart to fully ensure that the apostolic staff, lower levels ALSO are other truly compassionate and have not also turned cold, blasé and by being USED TO the Loving Lord sending them packed houses filled with persons, that God does not regard them as the Lost First Real Love “Letter to the Lampstand of Ephesus” cold hearted, waiting to have it’s block knocked off by the HEARING LORD..in Revelation 2:1-7
AND IS THERE A REMAINING, continually ABIDING “Holy Fear of the Lord” and among all in House Relationships a spiritual over all RELATIONSHIP FRUIT of JAMES 3:17?**
IN MANY is not most, MEGA MINISTRIES..there IS RELATIONSHIP JAMES 3:17..but NOT nearly 1/2 as much FEAR OF THE LORD, or DISCERNMENT OF INDIVIDUALS (As in this is the ONLY spiritual turf which amasses ministry STEREOTYPES in the floor, newbie visitor, team area..which can OFFEND by appearing BIGOTED, PET RESPECTER OF SOME TYPES OF HUMAN REAL PERSONS or else if this is NOT the case, can provide the NEWBIE with an accepting, GRACIOUS, hospitality which is highly attractive and builds FAVOR with a newbie and the APOSTOLIC LAMPSTAND.
HOWEVER, as a newbie returns as a frequent visitor, and the team, spiritual apostolic produces gives strong evidence to being NOT what it first presents itself to be (truly caring, warm, very interested, respectful) but is instead majorly into it’s OWN SELF, performance, valuing ministry ACHIEVEMENT, well produced STAGED, sermons, worship as ENTERTAINMENT which is great lights and action…but which has no DEEP RELATIONSHIP with the LORD and or ONE ANOTHER..then it will simply be found wanting as it is deeply SURFACE and therefore insincere even shallow or at the worst “denying the power and presence of the Lord” (fitting the description of a From Such Turn Away Fellowship 2 Timothy 3:1-5)
SUBMITTING: it is my own personal view that when I attend a mega church, I find it relaxing, professional, not compromising and ENJOYABLE…but I admit joining one..not into mega CROWDS and hiking long distances in parking lots.. but LOVE to fellowship with their apostolic leader founders! I truly have the utmost pioneering senior leader respect..for what they are /have been put through but also strongly admire their STAYING POWER. Everybody say AMEN!
I also prefer to be in a safe place where NOBODY IS MINDING MY BUSINESS. (lost in a big crowd lends itself to that) Everybody say AMEN two times!!
PS SENSE, A POSSIBLE APOSTOLIC MEGA LAMPSTAND perhaps could emirate from DFW LOF on land..but MY GOAL is to KEEP IS “HOLY SPIRIT SENT FLOW” but NOT A RELIGIOUS SYSTEM. But studying HOW to make INFRASTRUCTURE, still do Good God Lead BUSINESS without producing apostolic bureaucracy or leaving real human persons way back in the last rows, feeling not INCLUDED and NEEDED…still a big issue potentially for all kinds of middle -LARGE lamp stands, ministries,too.
SEEMS LIKE AT LEAST MANY OF THE BIG MEGA LAMPSTAND LIFE ISSUES WOULD BE:
HOW TO HANDLE the move of God’s Holy Spirit? How LONG to let WORSHIP go?
WHAT ABOUT winds of adulterated leader In House doctrines? PC compromise? Or not wanting to look poorly or odd as one is now well known publicly?
HOW TO NOT BECOME DEPENDENT ON GOD’S PEOPLE / TITHE DEPENDENT as there is by now a huge infrastructure to support.**
**But ARE EACH ONE OF THOSE ISSUES abiding MAIN REAL LIFE ISSUES for EACH of the LAMPSTAND APOSTOLIC TYPES?
Coming: sometime late tomorrow..THE OTHER REMAINING APOSTOLIC LAMPSTANDS
THE FRONT LINES LOCAL CHURCH APOSTOLIC LAMPSTAND (on the left)
And the (in the middle) THE EXOTIC APOSTOLIC LAMPSTAND usually international, Holy Spirit apostolic flow, eclectic, as in swarm apostolic ministry (NOTE: this is DFW Leader Ministry Fellowship adventurous, prophetic apostolic worship, eclectic leader /seeking to be apostolic diverse, lamp stand)
