In the history of churches, many have sprung up that could not stand the test of time because they were built around personalities and programmes instead of Jesus’ Pattern of Ministry. A ministry that can stand the test of time in every generation is a ministry that is built upon Jesus’ Pattern of Ministry encapsulated in Luke 4:18-19.

A proper understanding of Jesus’ Pattern of Ministry will help shape perspective and enable members in the body of Christ to know timely and timeless principles we must pursue in our attempt to do ministry, in order to stay perpetually under the anointing of God.
