Jesus is Alpha & Omega Ministries

If the Body of Christ is the reach its potential in fulfilling the mandates given by our Lord Jesus we must be in good spiritual condition.  Our movement focus is on the production of powerful and productive believers that understand their role in the advancement of the kingdom of God.

If the Body of Christ is to be successful in achieving the will of God we must be spiritually developed.  Spiritual maturity is a key component in our objectives because only a mature believer is capable of comprehending the deeper, broader things of God. Spiritual health is a very important aspect of maturity because a spiritually healthy believer has the capacity to respond to the pressures of living a supernatural life.

There are many pressures taxing those who seek to follow Christ.  One major pressure is being holy (powerful and productive) in the midst of an immoral culture.  Another is trusting the Lord before and beyond financial security (Matthew 6:24).  Pressures of life cause dysfunction in the lives of those who know God, those who do not know God, and between those who know God and those who do not.

A Look A Spiritual Health
Spiritual health is characterized by each believer in Christ being able to receive supernatural power that enables them to function to the full capacity of their calling as they were designed by God.  Ephesians 1:3, Ephesians 2:10,  Colossians 3:15-4:6

The supernatural power must reach the following areas of the inner man (spirit and soul) of the believer if they are to become a healthy believer.

• The mind (the power of God energizes the logic and decision making through wisdom, knowledge and understanding). Proverbs 1:20 – 3:20, Philippians 2:5-11

• The will (the power God energizes the believers desire to obey God) Psalms 1
• The emotions (the power of God energizes the feelings thus allowing the believer to connect to how God feels) Ephesians 4:30 – 5:2

• The nature (the power of God energizes the moral values and the Fruit of the Spirit). Galatians 5:22-23
• The Talents and Gifts (the power energizes the purpose and value of both natural and spiritual gifts of the believer). Ephesians 4:6-13
• The walk (the power of God energizes the ministry to others through the gifts). Ephesians 4:1-5:18

What is Biblical Reasoning? Biblical Reasoning is the practical application of Scripture in the decision-making process of tackling principalities in the invisible arena (Ephesians 6:12) in that we take thoughts captive to obey Christ in maintaining godly direction (2 Corinthians 10:3-6).

We must use Biblical Reasoning to understand who we are under God and receive empowerment to do battle against our flesh (Galatians 5:16-17, Ephesians 5:18). In order to reason Biblically we must apply Scripture to our thinking with the following concepts:

(1) Think on these things that are pure/honorable/commendable/worthy of praise/etc. (Philippians 4:8)

(2) We have the mind of Christ so that we may discern all things. (1 Corinthians 2:15-16)

(3) Have the same mind Christ had when dealing with others. (Philippians 2:5)

(4) Hold steadfast onto that which is good. (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

(5) Purpose of holding onto Scripture…all is sacred for teaching and reproof. (2 Timothy 3:15-17)

(6) Take all thoughts captive to obey Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:3-6)

(7) Keep pressing toward the mark given to us in Christ. (Philippians 3:11-16)

(8) Be strong in the Lord in His Mighty Power…as we go do battle in the invisible arena. (Ephesians 6:10)
