The 1st-century apostles received the promise.
Luke 24:49, Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.”
The Apostles truly understood it. The Father's promise is being downloaded from above. For the past three and a half years, they have been in the presence of Jesus, Yeshua, the Messiah, the last Adam from his beginning of the ministry. During the 40 days following his resurrection, he taught them about the kingdom of God. And the last 10 days they spent in the upper room when they received the promise from the Father. Yeshua suggests that it would be advantageous for them if he left. If he doesn't leave, the helper won't come. During their 10-day stay in the upper room, they offered themselves as a living sacrifice, and nothing would change until they died. I am referring to offering our lives as a living sacrifice. Apostle Paul urged us to present our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is our reasonable service. The apostles comprehend this and place them on the altar. They beseech the throne of grace in the spirit of entire consecration to the work and ministry of reconciliation. With that thought and the assurance given by Christ that they will endure with power from heaven, and they will represent him in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. They consecrate themselves and lay themselves on the altar. They received this gift of promise through supernatural encounters that transformed them. The manifestation began to address the multitudes of people immediately. The Acts of the Apostles are the Acts of the Bible because of their actions. The Holy Spirit was able to manifest itself through them, and 3000 souls were converted under the heavy weight of conviction for their sins. God was speaking through and in them. The power came from above. Yes, they were able to do it. And now it is time for the restoration of all things, time for the restoration of the offices of the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. Please pray with me now. Not everyone is called to be an apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, or teacher. We may have prophetic authority, prophetic missions, and apostolic missions. But the calling of the apostles was given by Elohim himself through Jesus Christ, who carefully chose every one of them and spent all night praying. From seven to seven, he prayed. He was offering prayers for 12 disciples. He personally selected them. And he commissioned them as the chief apostle in Hebrew chapter three. Let us consider Jesus Christ, the high priest, as the chief apostle. He is responsible for leading the apostles. The Roman Empire, which had been so powerful for 600 years, was defeated by the Holy Spirit, not with swords, but with the power of the Holy Spirit through the gospel of the kingdom. Beloved, let us turn our eyes to our chief apostle, Jesus Christ, and enter into the divine promise of the Spirit. I pray that this generation will desire the same baptism that they received on the day of Shavuot and the day of Pentecost, and nothing less. Because of the word, now you receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire. They are the ones who receive it. John prepared a way for him, but as the disciples were living with Jesus, they did not know Jesus as the baptizer of the Holy Spirit and fire because he had not yet died. He was not buried and didn't ascend to heaven. He hasn't sent the Holy Spirit yet. But on the day of Pentecost, twenty years ago, they encountered Yeshua as a mighty baptizer, immersed in the Holy Spirit and fire. Right now, you can also be immersed in the Holy Ghost and fire.
The Apostolic Office
The Apostle is like the thumb on your hand, the key to all the fingers, the key to all the ministries, with all the skills and abilities necessary to successfully build the Kingdom of God. His main purpose is to work alongside apostles, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers, as well as deacons, and helpers of ministry, including administration, elders, and governments in the Church. They have all the necessary skills and abilities to equip the Body of Christ. Any person called into the ministry of apostleships, also known as the office of the apostle, must be called supremely by God, as the early apostles in the first centuries did. He has the potential to become a shepherd or pastor of churches that he has planted and oversees. His abilities include evangelizing the lost and teaching people the Word of God and how to discern God's voice.
