Distinctive attributes of a healthy Church The church is not an organisation as some would like to think. The church is a living organism. Living organism have one thing in common “GROWTH”. The absence of growth is indicative of poor health. The church of Jesus Christ is a growing organism, characterised by good health. Our local expression of the Body of Christ is expected to grow and to be in good health. A healthy church is one that is first in all spheres of society. A healthy church is one that influences culture. She influences politics. She influences the economy and education. The church is never built to take cues from the world but for the world to cues from the church. Jesus promised to build his church. He never promised to build a clinic or a house or a school. Because a healthy church will build all that society will ever need. So what are the distinctive of a healthy church? 1 Evangelism Mark 16:15 Then he said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 2 Fellowship Acts 2:42 They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching, to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer. 1 Purposes Working together for a great purpose helps the church not to entertain unnecessary arguments or issues. When you are helping row the boat, you don't have time to rock it 2 Priorities We should do what really counts and never worry about the rest. Elisha when he after being called by Elijah his priorities changed. The church should influence your priorities. 3 Programs Our purpose determines our priorities Our Priorities determine our programs 3 Ministry Romans 12:4-8 Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function, so it is with Christ's body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other. In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you. If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well. If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly. In a healthy church every member is a minister according to the grace given to them. In a healthy church every member of the body serves the purpose of God in their Generation. A healthy church has excellent ministers.

The Interface Between Grace and Faith Faith is the “conviction of things not seen.” Noah's ark was the evidence that pointed to the flood long before any clouds of rains could be formed or seen by anyone. Noah built the ark because he believed that everything God said about things yet unseen. If he never believed he would have not built the ark. The ark building project started because of the grace. The sources of Noah's faith was the grace of God. Faith is informed by grace. It was by the Grace of God that Noah was told about the events that are about to unfold. Because of Grace he believed. Because he believed he built the ark. If it was not of the Grace of God Noah would have died will all of them. It was the coming together of the grace of God and the faith of the man that mankind was saved. Noah had nothing to base his faith on except the grace of God. Faith is always linked to the grace of God. What areas of life are you graced in? EXERCISE FAITH IN THE AREAS OF GRACE IN YOUR LIFE. Effectiveness is found in the area of grace. In a nutshell Faith cannot operate outside grace. WHAT ARE THE TAKE HOME? Faith will influence your concentration. Faith will determine your focus area. NB: Faith will effect you to do list first When you are working by faith, you don't have time to disrupt the TO DO list of God in your life. Faith influences the activities you participate in Noah's to do list was to build the ark despite the unbelief of those around Faith is never influenced by culture Faith is relentless despite the culture We should do what really counts and never worry about the rest. Scriptures: Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household. By this he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith. Genesis 6:8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: CONNECT: www.believerschurch.co.za connect@believerschurch.co.za https://www.youtube.com/c/BELIEVERSRANDBURG instagram: Believers_Randburg
March 14, 2022 Pastor Abraham Tshabuse Believers Church Randburg Unbelief is most often the reason why people continual live bellow Gods best. Unless unbelief is disrupted, the promises of God could be perceived irrelevant. Unbelief is the only reason people don't walk with God. In this message we intend to show you how to live by faith by showing three essentials to live by faith as found in scriptuers: Scripture References: Hebrews 11:4-7 Genesis 5:22-24 Romans 1:7 Galatians 3:11 Hebrews 10:38 Stay Connected: Website: www.believerschurch.co.za Email: info@believerschurch.co.za Instagram: @Believers_Randburg Youtube: Believers_Randburg Podcast: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/za/podcast...

THE POWER OF UTTERANCE The world as we know it is a result of utterance. If God never uttered a word the world as we know today will be non existent. Psalms 33:9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast. Faith is audible, faith has a sound, faith is expressed through words. Words remain the most creative force on earth. Words most often precede the manifestation. Words of faith are succeeded by natural manifestation of the supernatural - that is a miracle. Words spoken by God have an impact on our beliefs Words spoken by us have an impact on our destiny, we speak on the basis of what we believe. Mark 5:27 She had heard the reports about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment. Her cycle of suffering was interrupted by what she heard? What are you hearing with respect to the challenges in you life? Faith is a result of what you hear Matthew 8:8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. What you hear is moderated by your ability to discernment and to connect the dots: Discernment: Connecting the dots: Unless you successfully connect what you hear (promise of God) to your current reality, faith will remain a theological term. What you hear and say work to generate a life of Faith Two fundamental skills: Learn to hear what the Spirit Learn to articulate or express what come from the Spirit
Developing a Godly Attitude Towards Work In South Africa in 2021 only 66% of working age population are engaged with work. A small fraction of the youth is employed in South Africa. Those who have work opportunities need to be encouraged to do their best as workers working unto the Lord. We need to encourage those in the house of God to be part of the solution in our nation. When society is characterised by large numbers of people not active in meaningful work. Evil increases. Mental health problem increase. Crime increases. Children get to suffer from malnutrition and are kept away from educational opportunities. Unemployment is injustice. The church of Jesus Christ holds the answers and is the solution. A Godly attitude towards work will always start with God Work originated with God. Mankind was created in the image and likeness of God. God is a creator Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Gods work is very good Genesis 1:31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good indeed. Evening came and then morning: the sixth day. God worked six and rested one If God took rest from work, we are similarly expected to do likewise. Rest is a necessity after a process of creating amazing things for God in your generation. Conclusion We are responsible for our attitude towards work God is responsible for the blessedness and grace upon of our work Be active in creating for his Glory Be focused at doing exceptionally well Do forget the sabbath. Take rest
Nehemiah 4:6 CSB So we rebuilt the wall until the entire wall was joined together up to half its height, for the people had the will to keep working. The Mindset to Keep Working God wants you to have the will to Keep Working God wants all his children to work, the enemy is against you working. WORK is a spiritual matter, before it is a economic matter. Anything that carry the purpose of God is subject to opposition from the enemy. Deciding to get back into employment or starting that business or to do well in your career, opposition becomes a constant. Nothing great has been achieved without opposition. You want to become significant, then embrace opposition. A life characterised by the absence of opposition is a life characterised by mediocrity. How to be progressive despite opposition? Progress despite opposition is the resultant of the attitude to keep working no matter what. When the going gets tough, what makes the difference is the heart to work and not ability or talent. In a season of opposition ability or talent does not count. What counts is the willingness to work despite the opposition. In a season of opposition the grace of God is there to back you up as you grind. Opposition to work comes in two fold: VERBAL, and PHYSICAL. What people SAY or DO to you may have the potential to positively or negatively influence your progress. Many careers have come to end because of what was said or done. Similarly what was said has propelled some people to greater heights. Romans 8:31 (CEV) What can we say about all this? If God is on our side, can anyone be against us? 1 Verbal opposition Nehemiah 4:3 CSB Then Tobiah the Ammonite, who was beside him, said, “Indeed, even if a fox climbed up what they are building, he would break down their stone wall!” Verbal opposition should not have a negative bearing on a believer. You can flip around negative words aimed at you. Seek to reframe every negative saying towards you with positivity. Aim to exceed every negative word, by consciously working hard to succeed no matter what. What everyone around has to say about you is not important, what God say about you is more important. The promise of God is everything. What they say about you does not negate what God has already said. God has given your the power to generate wealth. 2 Physical opposition Every physical opposition in a believer is influenced by a spiritual force. Take up your spiritual amour. We restless not agains human opposition. The opposition might seem to come from humans, but it is Spiritual. Take-up you spiritual arms. You can never win a spiritual battle in the physical. Don't fight the manifestation, fight the source. Ephesians 6:12 CSB We are not fighting against humans. We are fighting against forces and authorities and against rulers of darkness and powers in the spiritual world. What they do to your or your work does not negate the purpose of GOD FOR YOUR LIFE. Romans 8:31 (CEV) What can we say about all this? If God is on our side, can anyone be against us? Learn to be a person of excellence in tandem with being a spiritual fighter. Win the battle through an excellent spirit, total dedication and spiritual warfare. Never fight people at work or in business, vengeance is mine say the Lord In a good season stay in prayer and the word, building capacity for more grace. Conclusion Nehemiah 4:15 CSB When our enemies heard that we knew their scheme and that God had frustrated it, every one of us returned to his own work on the wall. Be in the know, understand the challenge you are facing God will always frustrate the plans of the enemy. Keep doing what you are supposed to be doing. Keep working in Jesus name. website: www.webellieve.church Email: pastor@webelieve.church Instagram: believers_randburg YouTube: Believers Randburg

Keep on going: Why you should lean on the promise of God? The promise of God is what you keep on going towards Hebrews 6:15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. Obtain is in context of this scripture is the Greek verb epitynchanō suggesting to arrive at. The promise has been there, he had to keep on going to arrive to the promise or to reach the promise. The promise of God is set, we have to move towards the promise. www.webelieve.church Youtube: Believers Randburg #keepongoing #mybelieverschurch

1 Timothy 4:15 Put these abilities to work; throw yourself into your tasks so that everyone may notice your improvement and progress. Rebel against low expectations, don’t allow anyone to despise your youth Don’t adapt to the low cultural expectations All people are born normal Greatness is a choice Progress is a choice Every great person you see or know made a choice to be great A choice has to be followed with a commitment That is to say commitment attaches action to your choice Every significant achievement is as result of devotion to something greater Greatness or great things in a generation require a person of faith Faith require responsibility and respectIts time that believers show respect to their faith When you respect and take responsibility for your faith you become fruitful Think of Abraham: he had to take responsibility and follow through John 15:8 (TLB) My true disciples produce bountiful harvests. This brings great glory to my Father. “IT IS TO THE FATHERS GLORY, THAT YOU BEAR MUCH FRUIT, SHOWING YOURSELF TO BE THE DISCIPLES OF CHRIST (JOHN 15:8) John 15:16 (TLB) “You didn’t choose me! I chose you! I appointed you to go and produce lovely fruit always, so that no matter what you ask for from the Father, using my name, he will give it to you.
In John 13:21, we talked about the true human nature of Jesus Christ. This discussion (from a lecture Pastor Danny recorded previously) helps you go deeper into the Bible's teaching on this important theological theme.

SERMON notes Jeremiah 12:5“If racing against mere men makes you tired,how will you race against horses?If you stumble and fall on open ground,what will you do in the thickets near the Jordan? BACKGROUND: Jeremiah 11:23Not one of these plotters from Anathoth will survive, for I will bring disaster upon them when their time of punishment comes.” Jeremiah was impatient to wait out and see the plan of God. Jeremiah 12:1-4, Jeremiah seeks swift justice despite what God had already promised. The end of plotters from Anathoth has been determined. However, they seemed to prosper and producing fruit. This rub off Jeremiah in a bad way kind off. Jeremiah complained to God regarding the prosperity of the wicked. Verse five is Gods answer to Jeremiahs impatience. The answer does not address Jeremiahs questions directly. You desire to understand God and have answers to everything. He wants you to trust and believe him always... You want the reasons for COVID 19 - yet the Lord wants you to have faith. Apples and oranges Definition “used with reference to two things that are fundamentally different and therefore not suited to comparison.” The sin of benchmarking The problem with dreams is that they are framed by the known and therefore the always introduce a sense of limitation or some kind of glass ceiling. The things that God wants to do has not entered the mind or heart of man. Therefore, benchmarking introduces a sense of Limitation and therefore contradicts God. The sin of benchmarking! Benchmarking determines your altitude. In a sense that you are scored based on the known. You are only as good as the standard set. Living the life of the kingdom requires us to live outside the system of this world, we’re we have no limitations. Principle: Things of the kingdom cannot be benchmarked at least by humans. That is like comparing apples to oranges, both are fruits but they are not the same. Why you must fix your eyes on Jesus ChristBenchmarking, focus on you against the world. The bible teaches that we must Focus on Christ. Not ourselves. We don’t preach about ourselves, but Christ. Be determined to know nothing but Christ crucified. The danger of looking at what God is doing in other peoples lives is that If God dealt with all of us according to what we deserve, non of us will be here. What you see in other peoples lives is the grace of God, and therefore you cannot compete with grace. The non believer see the extension of Gods grace daily as God allows prosperity in their lives. The believer on the other hand has to partner with God and work in tandem with the grace of God. The believer has to work in tandem with the anointing As a believer you move into a dimension were you run out of luck and begin to create successive breakthrough by the power of God working mightily in you. The life I now live, is be faith in Jesus Christ. Learn to run now and we’re you are with your eyes fixed on Jesus ChristLearn to succeed in times of less adversity, with your eye fixed on Jesus ChristLearn not to look at your environment because that is when you drown, Fix your eyes on JesusWe all don’t know what 2021 has for us, yet we have learnings from 2020 We all don’t know what 2021 has for us, yet we all can cultivate habits that can help us to become the best that God has for usThe habits you cultivate today set you up for the following yearWinning the small battles prepares you for the greater challenges of the year to comeIn the small battles you win daily you discover that the battle is the Lords. Victory belongs to Jesus You are still here - you owe God faith in the form of GRATITUDEA lot could have gone wrong but you are still standing, praise GodFirst things first:He wants you to taste victory in small matters first He wants you to taste victory in private battle first Public victory is preceded by years of private training Overnight success you say. You actually mean 15 years of private hard work (a wise businessman )The God who brought you private victory will bring you public victory The God who brought you the small victory will bring you the big one The God who brought you victory against the lion will give the giant into you hands THINK ABOUT DAVID AND GOLIATH - apple and oranges.
40% of the actions people perform daily are not the decision people make but are basically habits - one study from DUKE University found People do not decide their futures, they decide their habits and their habits decide their future - a wiseman once said. Allow me to introduce the ULTIMATE habit that will most certainly decide your destiny: RESTLESS Definition: No physical or emotional rest, involving physical activity or Motion The art of the habit of restlessness Genesis 27:40By your sword you shall live,and you shall serve your brother;but when you grow restlessyou shall break his yoke from your neck.” Esau will serve his brother, however that can change when he become RESTLESS Isaiah 52:2Shake yourself from the dust and arise;be seated, O Jerusalem;loose the bonds from your neck,O captive daughter of Zion. IT IS OUR PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY TO ARISE AND LOOSE THE YOKE HOW DO WE DO THIS?Prayer is the strategy that God put in place for all to use. So we have to be restless in our prayer life.
Today episode is based on:James 5:13-18Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit.The framework of an effective believerThey pray every time they find themselves in trouble They Exalt the name of God through songWhen feeling helpless, they have the church as a lifelineThere is still room for the church and elders in this generation. Don’t be mislead. Some situations require a prayer partnership between you and the church God attends to the prayers of the righteous. Think of Elijah, he was a man just like us yet he prayed that it cease to rain and he prayed again fo it to rain. Sin in our lives is the biggest obstacle to effective prayer. Receive the forgiveness of God.When you pray in an impassioned manner, you are bound to receive what you have requested. pastor@webelieve.church www.webelieve.churchBE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR PART TWO: we go really deeper in the subject.
Welcome to another episode of the We Believe Podcast with pastor A. Today we look at one habit that characterised the life of Christ on Earth. Jesus was characterised by a HABIT of prayer throughout his ministry here on earth. For example Mark 1:35Before he could start his ministry, he fasted and prayed for 40 daysIn preparation for the cross he prayed 3 times On the cross he prayedHe taught us to prayHe illustrated the power of persistent prayer for justice in Luke 18 To be effective in matters of life or career. We need to look unto Jesus and do as he did. We need to also cultivate a life characterised by the habit of prayer.
