In a world filled with “busy”ness and hectic schedules, finding the time for a Christian’s most important ministry can be difficult. Our priorities are many times out of their proper order. Our ministry should first be to God in the inner court, the Holy of Holies, His presence. This is where the relationship is the most personal. It is only from ministering to God in the inner court that other ministry (in the outer court) may bear good and lasting fruit.
Ministering in the inner court is a place of intimacy with God where we spend time in His presence glorifying, honoring, and acknowledging Him. Here is we stand before God available for whatever He desires of us and calls us to do whether it is to teach, preach, witness, sing, prophesy, serve, give, or pray, or utilize any gift He has given us for His glory. It is only in His presence that we come to a place of true repentance and cleansing. It is the anointing that breaks yokes, and we need the anointing of the Holy Spirit to overflow to all those around us in order for there to be genuine life changing results.
Jesus said that apart from Him we can do nothing, but if we abide in Him and He in us we will bear fruit. (John 15:5-11) Jesus also remained in constant communication with His heavenly Father, and many times drew aside from the crowds to fellowship with God. He did nothing independently of God. He worked in concert with God, led by the Holy Spirit, giving all the glory to God.
So let us move forward, operating from a place of love without neglecting our time with our Father and becoming more like our Savior (gaining Christlike characteristics-Gal. 5:22).
BLESSINGS!
