Reconstruction of the Church part four

The Holy Spirit is speaking to the Church; pray that you have ears to hear what He is saying; a hearing hear will lead to an overcoming life, and a hearing ear will lead to revelation faith. Hear the Holy Spirit speaking through prophets and apostles about reformation and revival in the church. The Holy Spirit is rising up apostles and prophets of reformation and revival; reformation will lay the foundation for revivals, lasting revivals and habitational revivals to come. –(Heb. 9:10)

Word revelation and prophetic revelation is coming through apostles and prophets to create environment for revivals, supernatural, gifts of the Spirit, power of God, manifestations of the Holy Spirit, manifest presence of God, and resting glory. –(Eph. 3:5)

God’s glory will fill the church then overflow into the nations of the earth, we who are apostles and prophets must hear from the Holy Spirit in how to build a wineskin, or you can say wine skins that can hold such glory that is coming, and yes His glory is truly coming, I have seen in visions and revelations. –(Ex 25:9, 1 Chron. 22:19, 28:11-12, 2 Chron. 3:1)

Today we have many congregations and many groups that deny the power of God; this is a doctrine of demons that they believe. These congregations and groups are no longer in the favor of God and have been mark for burning fire to come and burn them away. –(2 Tim. 3:5)

We need revelation and on going revelation and increasing revelation, and wisdom of God to build and prepare the way for glory and revival. We must be led through the Holy Spirit to build on the city church level, and on the congregation level; then is so much a divine need to pray, pray, pray for revelation and to pray for building and preparing of the Spirit for the coming revivals and glory. –(1 Cor. 2:6-16, 3:10)

Revivals will come to every city, every nation and to every place, revival will come the way of life for the church. The Christian life will be a life of revival, and a life of signs and wonders. The Holy Spirit is giving prophetic revelations and visions of the revivals and the glory that is coming. A vision for the church that will be filled with revivals and glory! –(Ezek. 1)

We by the grace of the Lord, through much prayer will create environment and reconstruction our spiritual houses, congregations and the city church in away for lasting revivals to rest and come upon. –(Amos 9:11-12)

Reformation is the fire of God burning all groups, congregations, churches, ministries, and every believer’s heart, and those ones that are more according to the ways of the Lord for they will too be place through the fires of reformation. Even as a believer you must pray for personal reformation, for corporate reformation to the whole church, and personal reformation will come to every believer. –(Acts 3:19)

Through revelation we can create environment for the power of God and signs and wonders. We are to witness and flow in the power of God every day of our life, can I have an amen to that brothers and sisters! –(MK. 16:17-18)

Helpful revelational and visionary ideals to create environment for the power of God: 1. Apostles and prophets are the foundation, senior leaders of the congregation, and the city church. 2. Create environment according to First Corinthians 12, 13, and 14. 3. The Church is to be multi ministry, body ministry. 4. The Church must be a house of prayer, worship and prophetic ministry. 5. The City Church centers must establish where there is 24/7 prayer, worship, and prophetic watch. 6. The saints must be equipped to walk in healing, signs and wonders and the power of God. 7. We must hear what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Prophets and pray for application of the prophetic words. –(Isa. 28:13)

The saints need to be equipped in the work of Ministry, gifts of the Spirit, healing, casting out demons, and prophetic gifting. All believers should flow in the power of God; flow in the supernatural, all believers should have Word revelation and prophetic revelation, all believers should flow in the gift of prophecy, visions and dreams, and signs and wonders. –(MK. 16:17-18, Jn. 14:12-14, Acts 2:17-18)

We must rise up within our cities and among our congregations healing ministries, and deliverance ministries. We must rise up supernatural teams they flow in spiritual gifting an extreme ways in faith and love. Those gifted in prophetic gifts, anointed in deliverance ministry, gifting in prayer ministry, and healing ministry in extreme ways need to be brought together in forming supernatural teams that minister in our congregations and cities under apostolic and prophetic oversight. –(1 Cor. 12:4-6)

The Power of God, signs and wonders and the Supernatural in the Holy Spirit will become every day life in the lives of ever believer that believes in the Power of God. –(1 Cor. 2:4-5)

Elvis Iverson
http://www.elvisiverson.com

What are the factors and characteristics of an apostasy church? First and foremost we have come to a day when all these factors of the apostasy church will be totality and finality burn away from the church. –(Heb. 12:25-29)

In the first of the days church was the beginning, this church was not prefect or mature, the church in the future will be even be greater and more mature then the church in the Book of Acts. –(Eph. 5:26-27, 4:13)

The Church in history after the time of the first days of the church went through a time of apostasy, which is called the great apostasy of the church, the great falling away. Then the day cane when the church was set free from the apostasy church, and enter into times of restoration however, some of the factors of an apostasy church still remain in the church today. Through this third reformation, all these factors will be burn up and the apostolic church will arise. –(Heb. 9:10)

An apostasy church is the opposite of an apostolic church or the apostolic church. The third reformation will be as a fire burning throughout the church, however we must move forth in this reformation with humility, love, patience, love, and truth. –(Eph. 4:15)

Here are some of the factors of an apostasy church:

Now pray for personal reformation in your life and pray for reformation to come to the churches and church of your city. Pray for the Lord to rise up the Apostolic Church in your city and pray for the Lord to rise up the city church to the next level. Then pray for revival for your city and the city church, and prayer for personal revival in your life. –(Matt. 5:1-12)

Reconstruction of the Church part three

Reconstruction of the Church part three

Elvis Iverson
http://www.elvisiverson.com

Reformation, restoration, revival, repentance, reconciliation, regeneration, and redemption are all words meaning return, and to restore what was, however what the Holy Spirit is doing He is restoring the Church truly, and He is building the church to be even more greater then in the Book of Acts. –(Matt. 16:18)

Nevertheless, it is reformation, restoration to what God the Father sees, what Jesus Christ the Son of God, which is our Lord sees, and what the Holy Spirit sees, and their vision and plan for the church, so it is restoration, so it is reformation. –(Ex 25:9)

In this holy reformation there is coming revolution between God’s vision for the church and man’s vision for the church, between the old and the new, between the nature of man church and the supernatural church. This will be a revolution of grace, love, patience, and truth. This revolution is only apart in the process and progress of this holy reformation, which is the third reformation of the church. The follow chapter will be a reconstruction of the Church. –(Heb. 9:10)

Unfortunately, today’s church we only have the one-person man, is not the one new man ministry, instead this is the one rulership ministry of human wisdom. This begun through the deeds of Diotrephes, this is one of the elements of the apostasy church. There is no place in congregation environment where the senior leader was a pastor. Pastors are cell home leaders, they are not first in the order of church government. Pastors are apart of the ministry of the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. The congregation is lead by a team of elders with a leading elder leading them. This leading elder is an apostle. Pastoral epistles is not Pastoral Epistles instead they are Apostolic Epistles. Timothy and Titus are apostles not pastors. –(1 Thess. 2:6-11)

We must create environment in our congregations for the multi ministry, body ministry, spiritual gifts, prophetic ministry, and the supernatural. We can see this revelation in First Corinthians 12, 13, 14. We are to create this environment through teaching the Holy Scriptures, Word revelation, and prophetic revelation. The congregation must be environment for the supernatural, mentoring, fathering, rising, activation and maturating of spiritual gifts. The congregation must be environment for freedom, liberty, revival, supernatural, manifestation of the Holy Spirit and order; this order is laid down through revelation. –(1 Cor. 12, 13, 14)

Believers are called to be priests, the church is the priesthood of the Kingdom of God, and the saints are to be equipped for the work of the ministry. Every believer has a ministry; every believer has a spiritual gift, every believer has a function and a place in the congregation and the Body of Christ. –(Eph. 4:12, 1 Pet. 2:5, 9)

After a believer have been through discipleship, they are to be equipped and raised up in their spiritual gifts, they are to be place with others with same spiritual gifting in order to learn from one another, and they to be place with those who are more mature in the same gifting in order to mentor them. –(1 Jn. 2:12-14)

Apart from that, the apostles are to rise up the king for the Kingdom, every believer is called to be a king, every believer is called to the work of the Kingdom, and we need prophets to impart into the lives of the kings of the Kingdom of Christ. –(Rev. 1:6, 5:10, Acts 6:1-8)

The five ministries of Christ are to equip the saints for the work of the ministry, and apostles are rising up kings to change the world in the workplace and the marketplace. –(Eph. 4:11-12, Acts 6:1-8)

In the congregation we must raise up those with gifts of healing, working of miracles for the local congregational healing ministry, we are to rise up those anointed in deliverance for the local congregational deliverance ministry. We are to rise up intercessors for the local congregational prayer ministry, we are to raise up those anointed for evangelism for the local congregational evangelism ministry, etc. –(1 Pet. 4:7-11)

In additional, we are to train and mentor those called into the five ministries of grace, and we are train and rise up home cell leaders, etc. –(Matt. 4:19)

Some congregations may not have every kind of ministry, this could be an opportunity to lean on other congregations within your city, Christ is calling us to be one another congregations working and leaning on one another in Christ. One may be blessed with a healing ministry and the other with a deliverance ministry; one will lean on other congregation for healing ministry and the other will lean on another congregation for deliverance, etc. –(Phil. 2:1-11)

As we move to the next transition for the city church, some ministries will be place to minister at the city level, and for the service of the city church. Congregations will rise up ministries to minister and serve the city church and city. –(Gal. 5:13-14)

All believers should be equipped to pray, witness, cast out demons and heal the sick, and flow in prophecy, visions and dreams. –(MK. 16:17-18)

Moreover, there are those who will rise up in prophetic gifts and the gift of the prophet, they will be for the local congregational prophetic ministry. Season prophets, mature prophets and prophetic elders will lead and supervises the local congregational prophetic ministry and oversee the prophetic and supernatural manifestation of the whole congregation, and during corporate services. –(1 Cor. 14:26-33)

Apart from that, the city church will have a prophetic ministry, and there will be city church prophets that will minister at city church level. –(1 Cor. 12:4-6)

In addition, the local congregation leadership is first a team of elders, these are not only season ministers, instead they are mature ministers, and this team of elders is lead by an apostle. There could be more then two apostles serving with the team of elders and following the senior leader, the set apostle. The order among the elders is first apostles, second prophets, and the third teachers, and then others will follow. There is unity and openness among the elders. Within the congregation there may be other apostles, prophets, teachers, evangelists, and pastors. –(1 Cor. 12:28, Acts 13:1)

Above all the Holy Spirit wants the congregation to move into body ministry instead of a one-person rule ministry. Body ministry is a congregation becoming multi-ministry in the corporate anointing. –(Psa 133)

Reconstruction of the Church part two

Reconstruction of the Church part two

Elvis Iverson
http://www.elvisiverson.com

There is coming in the Body of Christ a strong sense of unity that will build into more deeps of unity. Unity is biblical and it’s the will of Christ for the Church, it is the order of God, it is the government of the church, and the pathway to the Kingdom of God. –(Psa. 133)

Apart of the reconstruction of the church is going to the next stage of city church, right now many city churches are at pastoral unity, however soon we will mature unto apostolic unity. Unity in vision, unity in prayer, worship, and prophetic watch is coming to many city churches around the world. Every believer and church leader must step upon the step of unity to move on to greater levels with Christ. –(1 Cor. 1:10)

Unity is coming, however for unity to come there must be a reformation of unity. So many churches and church leaders don’t believe in the church coming into the fullness of unity, which is the unity of the faith, which is the mature city church. In our time I don’t think we will see the mature city church, instead the next stage of city church. –(Matt. 16:18-19, 18:18-20)

A reformation of unity is coming; it is apart of the third reformation of the church, which is also called the new apostolic reformation. A reformation of unity is coming in a strong sense of unity in the hearts of many believers around the world, unity will be renewed in our minds, for unity is biblical, meaning biblical unity, there will come more increase common bond and common ground among Christians. Christians will seem as together instead of divided by so many differences, and our differences is what will bring us together. The Church will become like Christ in His image and likeness, and this is the unity that is coming. In addition, we will go to the next stage of the city church. –(Eph. 4:16)

In this holy reformation there are waves of reformation; the wave of church government, and structure, a wave of equipping the saints for the work of the ministry, and believers doing the work of the ministry, a wave of signs and wonders, a waves of harvests of souls, a wave of foundations for revivals and lasting revivals, and the believers entering into the workplace ministry, and a reformation of unity. –(Heb. 9:10)

There is only one church in every city, called the city church. There are many congregations, and each of them has many home cells. The city church is a network of congregations, and the congregation is a network of home cells. There will be a city church alliances forming a city church networks, lead by city church apostles, and there will be a city church center where there will be 24/7 prayer, worship and prophetic watch. This next stage will build environment for lasting revivals, and habitational revival to come and dwell among the city church, rest upon the city church in our cities. –(Rev. 1-4)

Today there is too much division over doctrinal issues and ethnic issues, congregations are more divided over ethnic issues then doctrinal issues. These are all masks of hated, pride, strife, envy, and selfish ambition, those who divided the church are not the friends of Christ, are not the friends of the bridegroom, instead they are spiritual wolfs, goats, swine, and dogs. The Holy Spirit dwells in the hearts of believes by faith, however He will not rest upon congregations that don’t love one another. Unity is loving one another sample as that, when we misjudge the church we bring judghement upon ourselves. –(Phil. 2:1-11)

Do you know believers in other congregations within your city, do you have relationship with believers in other congregations, and is it a real relationship? Do you fellowship outside your own group mindsets? –(Jn. 13:34-25)

The Holy Spirit is doing a work in our hearts to come together not only in center meeting, in addition in fellowship in coffee houses in love, prayer, and the Word. I believe this will bring a revival of love. We have seen a move of faith, we have seen a move of hope, now we shall see a move of love, and then there will be a move of all three; faith, hope and love which is a move of the supernatural. –(1 Cor. 12, 13, 14)

Reap the Whirlwinds

Reap the Whirlwinds

Elvis Iverson

http://www.elvisiverson.com

Many dead works and works of religion will reap the whirlwinds of reformation. Many have said in their own knowledge where is the reformation, where is this reformation that the prophets have said is coming?

The Holy Spirit is saying to you who say such these, when will you learn, when will you repent of testing the Lord. You who have hated the works of the Spirit shall be visited with the whirlwinds of reformation.

As the whirlwinds of reformation come upon the church in your city and in all cities and the churches in nations around the world, seek the Lord for personal reformation!

Do not be found without the fires of reformation in your heart! The fires of reformations are His grace to you, and His mercy is the revivals that are coming.

Many things will reap the whirlwinds of reformation in this time. These whirlwinds of reformation are making ways and pathways for his blessings, revelations from the Lord to flow, and revivals to come.

These whirlwinds of reformation will make a way for the works of the Spirit, and the apostolic works to be birth, establish, and grow and become fruitful in the land.

Reconstruction of the Church part one

Reconstruction of the Church part one

Elvis Iverson
http://www.elvisiverson.com

We have already enter into the time of reformation when the church will be reconstructed to the Word of God, Nature of Christ, Order of God, the Will of God, and of the ways of the Holy Spirit. This reformation is the third reformation; this is a reformation of all things in the church. –(Heb. 9:10)

The first reconstruction of the church will be the reconstruction to relationship; for most of the history of the church has been without relationship, we have be building outside of relationship, and our fellowships are not base on relationship, and therefore we have been in a famine of relationship and love for some time, this has open the door for certain things to enter the church. –(1 Jn. 1:1-10)

We must build the walls and the gates, the walls are called salvation and the gates are called praise. Christ is the King of kings and Lord of lords over His Kingdom and He is the Head and Chief Apostle over the whole church and all apostles, prophets and leaders. He is building two houses; one is the Kingdom of God, the other is the Church. The foundation of the Church is the Apostles and Prophets, and Jesus Christ is the Chief Cornerstone. The Church is build upon the Kingdom of God; the Church is a city build at the top of the Kingdom of God. The foundation of the Kingdom of God is the Rock of Christ, the Rock of Christ grow into a great mountain, which is called the Kingdom of God. We must know the purpose of the Church and the purpose of the Kingdom; the Church is the priesthood of the Kingdom of God, we are at the beginning of end of restoration of the priesthood and the priest, now we are entering into the beginning of the restoration of the kings of the Kingdom. This is why we have enter into this reformation, and God will use apostles in this holy reformation, and He will use apostles is rising up the kings of His Kingdom. The next steps are the equipping of the saints and then the step of rising of the kings of the Kingdom. –(Rev. 1:5-6, 5:10, 1 Pet. 2:5,9)

We lead people to Christ; then we lead them away from Christ! Living for Christ is ongoing relationship with Him; through our so-called Churchianity we have been leading them away. We must establish young believers in their relationship with Christ and their relationship with one another. First and foremost the church must be build on relationship and then revelation. Relationship is living in the love of Christ and loving one another, then relationship is the doorway for revelation to flow in our lives; revelation is truth and Grace. –(Matt. 22:37-39, Deut. 6:5, Jn. 13:34-35, Gal. 5:14)

When a believer comes to know Christ they are a babe, as they grow they become children, and then young men, and from their they become fathers, or you can say mature believers. Milk is for babes and children. We are feed the lamps, and then we are to feed the sleep with the meat of the Word. The meat of the Word is for young men and fathers or you can say mature believers. –(Heb. 5:12-14)

When a person comes to know Christ they need to be discipleship; which is the teaching of the elementary principles of Christ and reaching a point when a person can stand on their two own feet as a believer in Christ. Today we have many who cannot stand on their two own feet. How can they stand after all they have done if we do not first establish them in the elementary principles of faith? –(Matt. 28:19-20)

A congregation is the network of home cells. Home cells are the place where we build relationship. After babes in Christ pass through the door of discipleship, then they need to enter into a fellowship of believers in a home cell. A home cell is the place where there is relationship, ministry of the gifts of the Spirit, caring for one another, eating together, and praying for one another. –(Acts 2:42, 46)

This is why home cell leaders must be train, they must work in a team, and every thing in a congregation must be done in teams. Home Cell leaders carry the function of pastors to the congregation, and leadership is raised up among the home cell leaders. The need for a pastor changes; babes and children need a pastor to feed and care for them more, however young men and mature believers don’t need a pastor like babes and children do, instead they need a pastor for fellowship, prayer, and encouragement. Children are equipped, young men are mentor and father. After one goes through discipleship they are to be equipped for the work of the ministry. The saints are to do the work of the ministry the five-fold ministry is to equip the saints, apostles and prophets are the foundation of the church, the first and second in church government, and the apostles, prophets and teachers are to minister in work of the government of the church. –(Eph. 4:11-12, 1 Cor. 12:28)

The Home Cells are for relationship, fellowship, prayer, encouragement, and accountability. The congregation is for corporate worship, vision, equipping, and apostolic and prophetic ministry. Apostles, prophets and teachers minister within the whole of the congregation. An apostle is the senior elder of a congregation, along with other apostles, prophets, and teachers. The leadership of the whole congregation is mature ministers, which are called elders. A congregation is when home cells come together for corporate ministry. –(1 Cor. 12:28)

The Prophets are speaking; the Holy Spirit is moving in the hearts of the prophets. The Holy Spirit is speaking from the mouths of the prophets speaking with anointing to many mountains.

A revelation of faith is coming in the hearts of many believers around the world; a kind of faith that will remove mountains, a kind of faith that will bring breakthroughs, and lasting breakthroughs.

The Holy Spirit through the prophets is speaking to the mountain of eschatology; tremble and melt at the presence of the Lord.

The Holy Spirit is speaking to through the mouths of the prophets; speaking to the mountain of theology becomes a plain before the church and the Kingdom.

The Holy Spirit is speaking from the hearts of the prophets; speaking to the mountain of ecclesiology is overturn by your roots.

The Holy Spirit is speaking from the gates of the prophets to the mountain of secularism be made waste before the eyes of my people and the eyes of the world.

The Holy Spirit is speaking let all mountains that stand against the Kingdom of God and the Church be cast into the seas of holy fires. Let the mountains that are not planted by the Lord be rooted up and cast into the seas of holy fires.

In a vision the mountain of the Lord grows throughout the world. This mountain is the Rock of Christ, it the Kingdom of God. At the top of the huge mountain is a city of God, it is the city church, and it is the Body of Christ.

In a vision precious stones of truth and of faith are lay before, the feet of the saints of the Host High. These are truths and faith that we walk upon in the city of our God. The revelation of Jesus Christ brings together and brings order to all these truths and faith, and love of Christ holds them all together in our hearts.

A strong sense of unity is coming in the hearts of many believers and many leaders of the church. A vision of unity is being birth in the hearts of many believers and the corporate anointing is growing, covering and flowing through many believers around the world.

The Kingdom of God will grow, increase, progress, process move in our generation and our life then any other time before this time, and from our time they will be greater increases until the Kingdom of God fills the whole earth and all kingdoms will become the Kingdoms of Christ.

The Church will mature, grow, increase, become greater then any other time in the history of the church, and from this time the church will grow, increase, and mature in greater ways.

The Holy Spirit is speaking to your lives, speaking to the mountains in your lives, and He is speaking to the mountains; melt at the presence of the Lord, and be rooted up and cast into the seas of holy fires. Let the Kingdom of God grow, and increase in your lives more and more then ever before, and let you mature; grow along with the growth and maturity of the church, and the increase of the Kingdom of God.

The Holy Spirit and the prophets speak and shout grace, grace, grace, grace, and grace to your lives.
