Our
Mission: To reveal the glory of God,
and to prepare the Church – His Bride to rise
up and be Glorious in the earth. Being salt and light,
rescuing souls and impacting eternity.
THE VISION
The vision of Shekinah Today
Ministries is based upon the Word of God in Isaiah
40:5 “For the Glory of the Lord shall be revealed
and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of
the Lord hath spoken it.”
We believe
that God’s Glory was revealed through His son
Jesus Christ, and in these last days will be revealed
through His Glorious Church! (Romans 8:18 and Colossians
1:27). As God’s Glory is revealed through His
church we believe it will result in the greatest end-time
move of God and harvest of souls the earth has ever
seen, ushering in the return of our King, Jesus!
OUR
MISSION
1. As part of the five fold ministry our mission
is to prepare the Body of Christ to rise up and Be Glorious
(the Glorious Church) in the earth. Clearly
and consistently we have heard God’s heart cry
to us, to Cleanse, Purify and Make Ready the Bride of
Christ! Make her ready to be Glorious in the earth!
This cannot be done by our own might or power, but only
by the power of the Word of God and by the cleansing
and purifying fire of the Holy Spirit.
(Ephesians 5:25-27 - Just as Christ also loved the church
and gave Himself for her, 26 that He might sanctify
and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word,
27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church,
not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that
she should be holy and without blemish.
Ephesians 4:11-13 - says
the five fold ministry was given for the equipping of
the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying
of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity
of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God,
to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the
fullness of Christ; 14 that we should no longer be children,
tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind
of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning
craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but, speaking the
truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who
is the head--Christ-- 16 from whom the whole body, joined
and knit together by what every joint supplies, according
to the effective working by which every part does its
share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of
itself in love.)
2.
Rescue Souls - Seek And Save the Lost:
(Luke 19:10
- For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that
which was lost.)
3.
Make Disciples of all Nations: (with special
Focus on the Local Church)
(Matthew 28:18-20
-And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All
authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe
all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with
you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.)
4.
To equip the Church (Body of Christ) to engage and influence
today's culture with God's truth, life, love, and power.
We are to be salt and Light in the world!
Also, God’s word clearly warns of great deception
in the last days, therefore, it is imperative that 5
fold ministry inform and protect God’s people.
(1 Peter 3:15
- But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always
be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you
a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness
and fear;
Matthew 5:13-16 - You are
the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor,
how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing
but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.
14 You are the light of the world. A city that is set
on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp
and put it under a basket, but on a lamp stand, and
it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your
light so shine before men, that they may see your good
works and glorify your Father in heaven.
Matthew
24:11: And many false prophets shall rise, and shall
deceive many.
Ephesians
4:14 14 - that we should no longer be children, tossed
to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine,
by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of
deceitful plotting.)
5.
Minister Healing and Deliverance to the captives:
(Matthew 10:8
- Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead,
cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give)
6.
Care and Minister to the Needy:
(Matthew 25:35-36
- for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty
and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took
Me in; 36 'I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick
and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to
Me.)
7.
Bring forth Unity in the Body of Christ:
(John 17: 20-23
- Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also
which shall believe on me through their word; 21 That
they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and
I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the
world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22 And the
glory which thou gave me I have given them; that they
may be one, even as we are one: 23 I in them, and thou
in me, that they may be made perfect in one;
and that the world may know that thou hast sent me,
and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.)
