“We are the force multiplier!”
Defined: In military science, force multiplication or a force multiplier is a factor or a combination of factors that gives personnel or weapons the ability to accomplish greater feats than without it. The expected size increase required to have the same effectiveness without that advantage is the multiplication factor. We are a synergistic force as grace comes together in and through the ONE corporate son as a team or body.
The five ascension grace gifts are the multiplier for advancing Kingdom and building the church. The mature church advances the Kingdom. The five ascension gifts governs that same church.
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 AMP
“Two are better than one because they have a more satisfying return for their labor; for if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and does not have another to lift him up. Again, if two lie down together, then they keep warm; but how can one be warm alone? And though one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”
This message is really about building a home or foundation for a construct or habitation of Yahweh. The ascension gifts or Doma (Home) are about forming Christ in us as a habitation. How does He do it? By the grace power of His “light”.
One of my expertises is Lasers.
Lasers are defined as:
1. a device that generates an intense beam of coherent light ( electromagnetic radiation) by stimulated emission of photons from excited atoms or molecules. One such Laser is FireStrike.
“News
Northrop Grumman fires up latest laser weapon”
‘“A prototype of the “Firestrike Laser system can burn through a "representative cruise missile threat." The defense contractor sees a role for it on Navy ships.”’
This was a news blurb from May 2012. The Firestrike is LASER was based on synergy. One LASER beam by it self can be powerful, but 5 beams united into one united beam actually increases the effectiveness and overall power of the weapon.
This is synergy. It is not just about skill. It is about grace and character of love amplified in unity.
Prophet Evans Pierre
“If you're in a church that has only a pastor, you are only getting "1/5" of Christ, because you're missing the anointings of apostle, prophet, evangelist and teacher. You are not receiving the FULLNESS of Christ! We must receive from all 5 graces to receive His fullness.”End Quote
Apostle Glenn Bleakney
Quote
“The fivefold ministry—apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers—is a cornerstone of Christian leadership derived from Ephesians 4:11-13. Traditionally viewed as distinct roles, there's growing recognition that these are interconnected expressions of God's grace, working in synergy for more effective church leadership model.
Note: All of in this Zoom meeting have a working knowledge in this synergistic functionality, but some have more years of wisdom in application. The “How to “is not enough. We must want to and the have the do.”
Apostle Glenn Bleakney
Quote
“This message will explore how shifting from a compartmentalized view to a fluid, synergistic approach can revolutionize our understanding of church leadership and community building. Are we ready?
Traditional Binary View vs. Fluid Perspective
The Binary Approach
Historically, the fivefold ministry gifts have been viewed through a binary lens, categorizing leaders exclusively into one of five roles:
1. Apostles: Pioneers or founders of new ministries or assemblies.
2. Prophets: Those who receive and communicate the heart and mind of Christ.
3. Evangelists: Those gifted in sharing the gospel with non-believers.
4. Pastors: Shepherds caring for and nurturing the congregation.
5. Teachers: Those explaining and applying biblical truths. They ground.
This rigid categorization often leads to a limited understanding of how these gifts interact and can stifle leaders' full range of gifts.”
Apostle Angie Dorman
“SYNERGISTIC POWER results from the interaction of parts combining, producing an effect greater than the parts individually.
This is what UNSEATS PRINCIPALITIES in a region. One believer or fellowship cannot do it alone.
As the Ekklesia of individual houses of worship builds relationships with others outside of our immediate metron (including with others of various streams), we INCREASE IN SYNERGISM AND SUPERIMPOSE THE DOMINION OF HIS KINGDOM & CULTURE OVER THE WORLD, even toward the end of unseating principalities.
And what is our motive for this? SPIRITUAL AWAKENING! A BILLION SOUL HARVEST! YES, SOULS, SOULS, SOULS! It's why we're here.
It takes synergy my friends.
NO "ONE" INDIVIDUAL OR FELLOWSHIP CAN DO IT ALONE.
WE must be willing to do kingdom work TOGETHER with others - which means, no ONE gets the credit but God; No ONE leads everything there is a collaboration which requires humility, maturity and love, which synergy requires.
There is synergistic power in PERFECT UNITY (unity of mind and purpose) which manifests HIS GLORY AND THAT'S WHAT UNSEATS PRINCIPALITIES.
We must become one for this to become reality. It brings us into where He is - into HIS GLORY! Unity is the means to demonstrations of His glory and almightiness in the world; throughout every part of the world system. Unity testifies that the Father sent Jesus out of His great love for us.
WHEN WE ARE ONE WE ACTUALLY ANSWER THE LORD'S PRAYER:
Jesus' prayer, John 17:21-24 "I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me. “I have given them the glory you gave me, so they may be one as we are one. I am in them and you are in me. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me. Father, I want these whom you have given me to be with me where I am. Then they can see all the glory you gave me because you loved me even before the world began!"
Let's work together synergistically and advance His Kingdom - His utter dominion will become increasingly evident as principalities that hold regions hostage, lose their grip and cities states, regions and nations are transformed.” End Quote
WE can do this.”
What do Special Operations Teams, Basketball Teams and the 5 ascension grace gifts given in Ephesian 4:11-16 have common? Other than the obvious team mindset, the number “5” has great significance when it comes collaboration, synergy and how a team functions.
Every time we deployed as a SOWT (Special Operations Weather Team) we had 5 members, 1 Staff Weather Officer or SWO and 4 operators. The SWO did the heavy lifting, as in briefing the command staff (like Point Guard on a vadketball team), but the “grunt work” of daily operations in the tactical environment needed everyone working together. This is true in Special operation and it also is in basketball and in the five fold. The majority of the time since only five can be in the court for each team in basketball too. Each team member is critical to the success in both SOF or in Basketball environment. Everyone has their role. When you add the Coach and your bench it parallels because it is not unheard of to be back filled with those who can augment to synergize and increase effectiveness. Assistant Coaches, trainers etc. The key here is that the “Number 1” of that team is not the most important member of the team. Everyone is important, though there is a chain of command or leadership.
This is true of the Doma Five Fold or Grace gifts given to the church (that’d us through thr Apostle Paul by our King, Vommander and Chief or Head Coach or Team Chief: Christ Jesus the King of kings.
Everyone one on this team is essential to function on mission accomplishment. With everyone functioning we fo jot reach full synergy.
But what is unique to all in this comparison is the number FIVE in a spiritual sense, why not 4,6,7 etc. I believe the key is in the Hebrew meaning the number “five”. Key word for “grace and power!”:
Five
Chamesh [f.], chameeshah [m.] Power, strength, alertness (wake-up!), Torah, grace, service, gospel, fruitfulness, going forth, fast movement, anointed, prayers, and protection. The holy anointing oil had five ingredients: four spices mixed with olive oil. (Ex. 30:23-25.) The holy incense also had five ingredients: four spices mixed with salt. (Ex. 30:34-35) We are empowered by the Word (Torah) and the Spirit. All is given by God’s mercy and grace. There are five Books of Torah (Moses/Law), five-fold ministry, David’s 5 smooth stones defeat Goliath, fruit from trees is fit to eat in the fifth year.
* Fifth Hebrew letter: Hey Numerical value of five. Pictographic meaning breath, air, spirit, femininity, and behold (to make known). As a prefix, it is the definite article “the.”
* Five loaves fed five thousand, leaving twelve baskets leftover. (Mt. 14:16-21, a story in all four gospels)
* On day five of creation, the birds and fish were created. They move fast and carry seed throughout the whole earth in their migrations. Like them, we are anointed and filled with the Spirit to carry God’s Seed, the Gospel throughout the earth.
* There are five divisions to the Psalms.
* Zelophehad had FIVE daughters and no sons. The daughters brought a case before Moses asking to receive an inheritance as sons. YHWH tells Moses that the women are right and they get an inheritance. (Num. 27:7)
* Fifth Feast: Rosh Hashanah/ Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets) Lev. 23
* Fifth Spirit of God: Gvurah (Power) Is. 11:2
* Fifth Church of Revelation: Sardis (Meaning red ones, prince of joy, escaping ones, or those who come out)
* Negative side: Feet that run swiftly to evil, walking toward darkness, trampling the holy with one’s feet, being ruled by the power of the nephesh/flesh instead of the power of the Holy Spirit. (Pr. 6:16-19)
NUMERICAL HEBREW 5 is “Hai”
Five is indicative of being full of Grace or filled with Spirit, prepared, and empowered to go forth on whatever mission YHWH has given one to do. Five books of Moses completes YHWH’s instructions to His people. His Torah is the Seed carried throughout the earth by the spiritual birds and fish. The five books of Torah are the five loaves that feed thousands with plenty leftover for those that come later. Women have just as much inheritance in the Torah and spreading its message as men, which is pictured in Zelophehad’s daughters.
Five is associated with prayers and being anointed, as both the incense and the anointing oil had five ingredients. This indicates that anointment and prayer are POWERFUL. Both define and declare YHWH’s authority, gifts, callings, favor, direction, purpose, and will. They release a sweet fragrance. Both can be a hedge of protection like the clouds, the seal, and the “hiddenness” of Yom Teruah. Five also indicates maturity and unity. Notice how perfectly synchronized the movements of flocks of birds and schools of fish are in the mayim (waters) and shamayim (heavens). Though they are many, they flow as one fluid Body. This is the Spirit of Power and becomes the unity through synergy of the gifts given by Christ at His ascension.
Last but not least:
There are 5 ascension gifts or Doma gifts given by Christ as a team to perfect or the saints for ministry.
Reference:
Ephesians 4:11-14 AMP
“And [His gifts to the church were varied and] He Himself appointed some as apostles [special messengers, representatives], some as prophets [who speak a new message from the word or light of God to the people], some as evangelists [who spread the good news of salvation], and some as pastors and teachers [to shepherd and guide and instruct], [and He did this] to fully equip and perfect the saints (God’s people) for works of service, to build up the body of Christ [the church]; until we all reach oneness in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, [growing spiritually] to become a mature believer, reaching to the measure of the fullness of Christ [manifesting His spiritual completeness and exercising our spiritual gifts in unity]. So that we are no longer children [spiritually immature], tossed back and forth [like ships on a stormy sea] and carried about by every wind of [shifting] doctrine, by the cunning and trickery of [unscrupulous] men, by the deceitful scheming of people ready to do anything [for personal profit].”
The Five-fold ministry gifts are the God given cures for everything that afflicts mankind!
Look at a couple key words:
To Equip or to outfit, to arm or load out or provide what’s necessary! To bring correction through alignment.
Build construction usually a fortified and protected place.
The Five-fold doma gifts are given by Christ to build His Home, God’s Church and Spiritual Family! To equip the ministers to serve.
We must understand that a spiritual gift is not a title, or position alone, it is an anointing, and a capacity to serve God.
Every building in modern industrialized countries must follow and meet building codes to ensure their safety. Anyone can’t just build a building for public use without following strict building codes.
Ephesians 2:17-22 AMP
“And He came and preached the good news of peace to you [Gentiles] who were far away, and peace to those [Jews] who were near. [Is 57:19] For it is through Him that we both have a [direct] way of approach in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens [outsiders without rights of citizenship], but you are fellow citizens with the saints (God’s people), and are [members] of God’s household, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus Himself as the [chief] Cornerstone, in whom the whole structure is joined together, and it continues [to increase] growing into a holy temple in the Lord [a sanctuary dedicated, set apart, and sacred to the presence of the Lord]. In Him [and in fellowship with one another] you also are being built together into a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.”
It’s the same in The Kingdom of God!
ESV 1 Corinthians 3:10 According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it.11 For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
The apostolic (doma) builds houses or starts new congregations, ministries and fellowships (foundation is always Christ), and the prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers equip or furnish the house. They lead the charge advancing the Kingdom.
Doma also means “home, or house builder” where the word! domicile comes from.
Titus 1:5 I left you in Crete to do what still needed to be done- appointing spiritual leaders in every city as I directed you.
Paul left Titus in Crete to finish furnishing the house of worship Paul had started in that region.
Again, elders, deacons, apostles, prophets, evangelists, teachers etc. are NOT titles WE seek in the church for notoriety or power. They are supernatural, they are anointings God gives for work and service.
Far too long people have HAD the idea that becoming a elder or deacon is a position they earn rather than an anointing to serve.
Doma Gifts with the anointing from Christ directly, build the House of God!
Doma Gifts oversee “The House of God”, the building, equipping, organizing, training and ordaining!
God uses the Doma Gifts to impart the “charisma” gift upon believers who seek to help build The Kingdom of God.
The purest evidence a person is a “Doma Gift” to the church is NOT so much the manifestation of the supernatural, but rather their PATIENCE, willingness and ability to teach, train and build up The Body of Christ and release them and Not hold onto them.
They will have the heart of Yeshua Jesus and have a strong desire for unity within
The Body—they will be Family oriented because the church is The Body of Christ and God’s family.
We need to be a part of God’s supernatural family and the doma gifts were given for that purpose to correct and align.
Are we condemning or rightly judging in His righteouness as the measure?
Its is time to paga or Intercede for the Church and reach this world!
So let us high five and hit the battle field Mighty Warriors.
