The Phaneroo Devotion: The Responsibility Of The Minister
Apostle Grace Lubega
John 4:24 (KJV); God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
There are people in this life of the gospel whose sole desire is to be appointed to stand at an altar but without understanding the responsibility that comes with the appointment.
They are blindsided by the cameras, lights and the ‘adoration’ of crowds and do not see the demand on the spirit of every man who stands before multitudes in the name of God.
Each listener is a spirit seeking to draw from the God in you and not from the man that you are or merely the gift that you possess. As a man, you are made conscious of the fact that you are incapable of satisfying the deepest cravings of a man’s spirit and that you must yield to the bottomless God for only He is capable of meeting each man at his point of need.
God expects you to yield your spirit enough into depths that enable you to minister to these multitudes and this place must go beyond your gifts and talents. This is the true responsibility of the minister. It is not to sing so well or speak so articulately but to open your spirit to the God who must meet men through you.
Many who have not understood this have been taken off the altar by God Himself because when He gathers men, it is not an occasion for his servant to showcase his ability but for God to meet His people.
His name be praised!
FURTHER STUDY: Philippians 3:3, Romans 1:9
GOLDEN NUGGET: God expects you to yield your spirit enough into depths that enable you to minister to these multitudes and this place must go beyond your gifts and talents. This is the true responsibility of the minister. It is not to sing so well or speak so articulately but to open your spirit to the God who must meet men through you.
PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I understand the responsibility of my altar and place of service. I treat it with all the reverence that it deserves. Above all, I yield myself to You that You may work in me to reach everyone and everything that I must touch, change and transform, to the glory of Your name, Amen.

JUKUMU LA MHUDUMU
Mtume Grace Lubega
Yohana 4:24 (KJV); Mungu ni Roho, nao wamwabuduo yeye imewapasa kumwabudu katika roho na kweli.
Kuna watu katika maisha haya ya injili ambao hamu yao pekee ni kuteuliwa kusimama madhabahuni lakini hawaelewi jukumu linalokuja na uteuzi.
Wamefumbiwa macho na kamera, taa na ‘kuabudu’ kwa umati na hawaoni mahitaji ya roho ya kila mtu anayesimama mbele ya umati kwa jina la Mungu.
Kila msikilizaji ni roho inayotafuta kutoka kwa Mungu ndani yako na sio kutoka kwa utu wako tu au tu kipawa ulicho nacho. Kama mwanadamu, unafanywa kufahamu kweli kwamba huna uwezo wa kutosheleza matamanio ya ndani kabisa ya roho ya mwanadamu na kwamba lazima ujisalimishe kwa Mungu asiye na mwisho kwa kuwa Yeye pekee ndiye anayeweza kukutana na kila mtu katika hatua yake ya hitaji.
Mungu anakutarajia utoe roho yako vya kutosha ndani ya kina ili kukuwezesha kuhudumia umati na mahali hapa lazima pawe zaidi ya karama na talanta zako. Hili ni jukumu la kweli la huduma. Sio kuimba vizuri sana au kutamka kwa ufasaha bali ni kufungua roho yako kwa Mungu ambaye lazima akutane na wanadamu kupitia kwako.
Wengi ambao hawajaelewa hili wametolewa madhabahuni na Mungu mwenyewe kwa sababu anapowakusanya wanadamu, si tukio la mtumishi wake kuonyesha uwezo wake bali ni la Mungu kukutana na watu wake.
Jina lake lihimidiwe!
MASOMO YA ZIADA: Wafilipi 3:3, Warumi 1:9
UJUMBE MKUU: Mungu anakutarajia utoe roho yako vya kutosha ndani ya kina ili kukuwezesha kuhudumia umati na mahali hapa lazima pawe zaidi ya karama na talanta zako. Hili ni jukumu la kweli la huduma. Sio kuimba vizuri sana au kusema kwa ufasaha bali ni kufungua roho yako kwa Mungu ambaye lazima akutane na wanadamu kupitia wewe.
SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Ninaelewa jukumu la madhabahu yangu na mahali pa huduma. Ninaitendea kwa heshima inayostahili. Zaidi ya yote, ninajitoa Kwako ili ufanye kazi ndani yangu ili kufikia kila mtu na kila kitu ninachopaswa kugusa, kubadilisha na kugeuza, kwa utukufu wa jina lako, Amina.
