Living Faith Ministries International
Apostolic Network
LFMI is a
network of like-minded fellowships and ministries providing mutual
support, encouragement and fellowship for the purpose of perfecting
the body of Christ, for the work of their ministry. Ephesians 4:11-13, “ And he gave some, apostles;
and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and
teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the
ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all
come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of
God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the
fullness of Christ:"
These
fellowships and ministries are governmentally independent and yet
relationally interdependent.
- Interdependence starts in the
local fellowship and translocal ministries and grows out to
encompass the entire body of Christ. 1Corinthians 12:14,
“For the body is not one member, but many.”
-
We believe
each senior leader has been given chief responsibility for
the overseeing of their respective fellowship or
ministry yet the headship belongs to Christ. Each
man is head of his own household and Christ is the head of each
man. 1Corinthians 11:3, “But I would have you know,
that the head of every man is Christ;
-
This does not
constitute independence but interdependence. Each member is
accountable and responsible first to Christ then to each
other and finally to the body as a whole. Eph 2:19-22, “Now therefore ye are no more
strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and
of the household of God; And are built upon the foundation of the
apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner
stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together
groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are
builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.”
-
The fellowship or ministry leader is not
the power ruler or king of their fellowship or ministry but one of
the five fold ministry gifts given to the the body of Christ
for the perfecting of the body to do the work of the ministry.
Eph. 4:11
-
They are
servant leaders in their local fellowships and
ministries first and then within the network. Mark 10:44, “And whosoever of you will be the
chiefest, shall be servant of all.”
-
They are able
to be transparent with the other leaders within the network with
whom they have grown in relationship. James 5:16, “Confess your faults one to
another, and pray one for another, that ye may be
healed…”
