Publisher's Synopsis
Ministry which comes from God takes a miracle to achieve. Remember that we are talking about growing a spiritual plant! If it is possible to grow our own ministry (using a franchise or our own money) then it does not need faith to happen. Seeds of ministry are grown by faith. This is a prophetic dream book written using dreams interpreted with Scripture mixed with teaching. The chapters are Taking Ownership, Selecting Seed, Buying Seed, Mystery Seeds, Spreading Seed, Blooming. The job of the Church is to equip the saints for ministry. Rather than giving them fish, we need to teach them to fish for themselves. Only when we give others seed rather than fruit, can they grow a ministry for themselves. It is time for the true Church to rise up. No more playing Church. Prophecy has entered the house of God. Ministry comes by many ways: Inheritance, need or obligation. But, true ministry from God begins as a seed. It is birthed from the love of a relationship with Him. Ministry is grown like a plant. It is not manufactured like a product. A plant is grown from a seed, watered and nurtured within a specific environment. God gives the idea and then individuals get the training and instruction along the way. True ministry bears fruit. Ministry which is produced rather than grown is obvious to all because it does not bear fruit. The unique aspect to Christian ministry is that lives are changed. The one who has been given the vision for the ministry has the mantle. What that means is that God empowers the same person who He gives the vision to. This book is number 11 in the series of Steps in the Garden of Intimacy with God. The first edition was released in 2013. The second edition dropped 40 pages and fixed some minor editing, thereby giving an option to decrease the price.
