Tshwane Kingdom Fellowship Gathering.Theme: five fold ministry.

Scipture reading is Exodus 17 : 8-16 lIving Bible). 8: But now the warriors of the Amalek came to fight against the people of Israel at Rephidin. Rephidim was the place of rest.They were attacked as they were resting. The Amalek were the descendants of Essau,who lost his birth right to his brother Jacob. The enemity continued between the two brothers. 9: Moses instructed Joshua to issue a call to arms to the Israelites, to fight the army of Amalek. " Tomorrow," Moses told him, " I will stand at the top of the hill, with the rod of God in my hand," 10: So Joshua and his men went out to fight the army of Amalek. Meanwhile Moses , Aaaron,and Hur went to the top of the hill. 11: And as long as Moses held up the rod in his hands, Israel was winning; but whenever he rested his arms at his sides; the soldiers of Amalek were winning. 12: Moses' arms finally became too tired to hold up the rod any longer; So Aaron and Hur rolled a stone for him to sit on, and they stood on each side, holding up his hands until sunset. 13: As a result, Joshua and his troops crushed the army of Amalek putting them to the sword. Aaron an elder brother of Moses became his spokesman.Aaron was the first priest of Israel and headed a familial line of priestshood that continued for more than a thousand years. Hur , The man who supported Moses' arms in prayer, in company with Aaron. He was also associated with Aaron in the government of the Israelites while Moses was in the mount(Ex 17: 10-12). All the five fold ministry was there,particularly on the side of Aaron, On the side of Hur we see the business people also involved in the ministry. Go with me in the book of Ex 31: 1-6. 1. The Lord also said to Moses," See, I have appointed Bezalel( son of Uri, and grandson son of Hur, of the tribe of Juda). 3. And have filled him with the Spirit of God, giving him great wisdom,ability and skill in constructing the Tabernacle and everything it contains. 4. He is highly capable as an artistic desighner of objects made of gold, silver and bronze. 5. He is skilled, too, as a jeweler and in carving wood. 6. And I have appointed Oholiab( son of Ahisamach of the tribe of Dan) to be his assistant; moreover, I have given special skill to all who are known as experts, so that they can make all the things I have istructed you to make. You see, business people must be made aware of their calling. May God bless you as you read. Pst Moses Mabunda
