 Okay, good morning everyone. Welcome back to a new week of classes. Let's begin this time with the word of prayer Abraham Could you please please lead us in prayer this morning? Okay, pastor. Thank you Precious father, we thank you this morning father our hearts and minds are open to receive your word Father, we pray that may you grant our teacher all trans and May you grant us a hearing ear? That whatever word that we are going to discuss whatever word that we are going to learn today We'll be part of us that will carry this gospel To the ends of the world that truly we are going to be examples of men and women who have truly been to the Bible College Father what we don't want to be Through this Bible College without being transformed. We pray that led to this Message let today's sharing be a time and a season of transformation in Jesus name You have prayed amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you Abraham. All right, so Last week now we stopped we started with chapter 6 organizational structure and design We looked at how God as a God is a God of Structure is a God of design when we look at creation we see How well you know when God created everything there was there's a structure. There's a design He he there's a pattern and with in which even God worked and God does not work arbitrarily Which means he doesn't just wake up from morning and try to do some things even though he care Even though God if he would like to do things arbitrarily, he can do it He can just call for things but we see that God is not the author of confusion but he he expects things to be done in order and Structure and a design so we looked at that last week we looked at a Aligning Organizational structure to strategy. So for example, we have a strategy for our ministry right say for example Five years down the line. You want to see your ministry, you know Having maybe two locations providing Certain Bible college classes right for example. So so you need to think ahead and align The organizational structure to that strategy So for example, if you as we just said if you want to start a Bible college three years down the line So you need to prepare you need to okay now look at how I can raise leaders Who will be you know available to teach and you need to train them up? So again, it's a process. So we looked at the book of numbers how God told the people of Israel Through Moses now they are the the strategy is to get into the promised land Right, but while during the Exodus God gives them, you know so many Structures to follow right there was organization. There was everything was organized. So God tells Moses you have a tabernacle And then that will be in the middle. You will have three tribes in each corner of the tabernacle so that's 12 tribes and then each tribe will have one leader one representative and And then there will be different kinds of trumpet. So we saw things was an order even when You know when a trumpet was bloat for example to move from one place to another They would move in an orderly fashion first this tribe goes and the second tribe. So everything was an order and then If they were to camp as well, it was done in order, right? So We see that when God later on even as he spoke to Solomon He gave Solomon even the measurements and we look on further on in many other places how God very strategically organized You know things in the Bible, especially we see in the old custom very strategic To the dress of the high priest to the way the offerings are to be made to to the way how the the High priests are to you know walk into the tabernacle all each and every aspect God had an a structure for it and We also looked at the reason for having an organizational structure is because it provides a sustainability Right with the example of David King David when he brought the tabernacle the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem after he became King He desired that there should be worship in front of the tabernacle. So he chose 4,000 people 288 prophetic singers and he divided those 4,000 into 24 units and Each unit will take turns. So probably each unit had about 600 700 people we don't know but those 24 units so they take turns. So because of this organizational structure There was worship for 33 years 24 7 in front of the Ark of the Covenant, you see sustainability David was able to sustain it was not You know David had this desire. Okay, can we have 24 7 worship in front of the tabernacle and he didn't just say, okay Who can sing who can play instruments come stand? No He had the desire he put it on paper, so to say and Then he made sure that you know this organization Things are done in an orderly manner and I mean we do that. We will see sustainability Even when you look at You know ministries Especially when you're starting off in small ministries, you just got nine ten people 15 people 20 people It's a small ministry Get organizational get get structure from the beginning itself So that as the church grows as the ministry grows, you will see sustainability You will see things are set in place And that's very important. It's very important when things are set in place There's always Sustainability, you know And sustainability will always, you know casually over time bring greater and greater growth Right. So we looked at that we stopped at here last week Let's pick up from have having the right teams right now. Let me just check page. We are on page The notes 53 on the notes have the right teams in place as we You know are in in a in a workplace or in ministry. It's very important to have the right teams because remember that Work by God's design is teamwork, right? Very our Lord Jesus himself. He could have you know, just come Had a two three people and you know, no, he didn't do that The Lord Jesus had a team 12 people, right? So having the right teams in place is very very important now. Here's something that we must understand Having teams people will come people will go you can't stop that but over time you will recognize You know, these are people who can Be involved closer to you in your team. Let's look at the example of David again David was Israel's most successful king He he he was politically administratively militarily spiritually the most successful king, right? but One of the things that David did was he set teams in place Like we saw here. He had the worship team 4,000 odd people but in in terms of the army again, he had strong units he had The 37 warriors what he you know, who he had under his team and those 37 Out of those 37 were the famous 30 leaders and then in that David had three in his core team. So we see here So wonderful. He's got a bigger team 37 people out of the 37 he had 30 in a closer unit to him And out of the 30 he had three who was the most valiant soldiers very closest to David, right? Like a core team So this is something some this is something that we all can you know imply in our Apply in our ministry in our work Is to work in teams have smaller units. So for example, you may be Maybe 20 people in the church. I remember when we came to Mangalore, we were 10 people and I called four of them from there from the 10 people and I said, we are going to start a core team They were all laughing. We are only 10 How will you start a core team? Who's gonna be in the core team? Remember four of them. I said Let us Look at what we want to achieve this year. So core team I would I would share everything and then we had on a team where of course, we were only 10 Then as we grew The core team was there then we had another team which was involved in volunteering You know, there are people for example, there are church members who come attend church and they're not able to serve So they go back and then there are people youth or so a few families who want to serve so they serve And then you have the core team Where every sometimes decisions that we have to make we check with the core team. What do you think about this and And so it's very important to have those teams in place That having the right people in the right in the right team is what is the key here Just because I want to make a team Okay, let me choose some people now, right? Having the right people in the right team And we should know that you know as a team. We all want to succeed So these are things as leaders. We must always put forth to our team members, right? So for example in in church in the ministry, you can always tell your church or your core your teams These are that, you know, what we want to achieve for 2022. These are the things we want to achieve So, you know, you lead the way right and and let them know that it's not only about You know me and it's not only about What I am doing in the ministry, but it's a team effort, right? Here's the thing with the team effort when you succeed Involve everyone everyone succeeds, but when there's a failure We are also involved in that because sometimes we say, okay, and we succeed everyone are involved But failures they say because you did it or because he didn't do this because he didn't pointing fingers remember teamwork is we all succeed or When they fail we all fail and then we're able to you know stand up again There will be ups and downs. It's not an easy task to set up a good team But eventually you'll you will arrive at having the right people in the right place The next point is Very interesting sometimes, you know The teams that your best teams Begins with the most unlikely people or even at the most unlikely season or even in the most unlikely place And so when we look at first Samuel chapter 22 1 and 2, let's read this first Samuel chapter 22 1 and 2 Could one of us please read that for Samuel 22 1 and 2 is anyone there or The Samuel 22 Yes David fled from the city of God and went to the cave near the town of Adulam When his brothers and the rest of his family Heard that he was there. They joined him people who were oppressed or in debt or Disatisfied went to him About 400 men in all and he became their leader Thank you, Maggie. So here the the the worst starts for David fled from From the city of God now in this time David's already anointed as king, but he is Moving from one place running from one place to another hiding from Saul Right and it's not a good feeling right to live in fear to live in doubt to when where does Samuel? Sorry, where is Saul when is he gonna come where are his soldiers? You know continual fear. It was a low point in David's life Right, although he was destined to be king Right, he was wandering from cave to cave, but at that time Right David's brothers and other men Saw David They found out okay David is here. They came 400 men came and said David We want to be under your leadership and Here started David's mighty army Sorry 400 men right Imagine he's hiding in the caves probably not when well-dressed You know but 400 men God sent 400 people to David they said David you we know that you are a leader We have seen you kill Goliath. We have seen you The way you are we've seen that you as you can be a great leader So we want to be under your leadership They knew David's capabilities they came now imagine one Person running away from Saul all of a sudden he's got 400 mighty men under him right and It was in a place where you know, it was very unlikely Right who who's going to come and you know be under the leadership of somebody whose life is in threat But that's what happened here unlikely place unlikely moment in an unlikely manner Right, so sometimes when we start out In making teams building teams It may not look perfect. It may not just be okay. This is the exact team. I want it. No There will be times You know The God will take us through seasons and then you say okay And at the unlikely time in an unlikely manner God is able to bring the right people in your team. So Don't be alarmed if people come people leave Let me share this when When we came to Mangalore The first Sunday when I was there we were about 10 People and there was a young couple, right? So I was very happy. Okay. There's a nice young couple we can you know You know they can slowly grow in the Lord and start serving and So I was excited to talk to them and So I was talking to them. I said, so, you know Do you all serve in any area? So they were very fervent, right? They've been serving in the church for a long time and But after the whole conversation, he said Pastor, please pray because next week is our last Sunday. We are moving to Canada And I was like, oh god Firstly, we are 10 people and now this nice young couple I thought to myself, you know, I wish they were here. I wish they could be part of the team That's what we need people who like to serve and a young couple and But they had to move to Canada. I was so Disappointed but you know, we know that you know, they had to go ahead with their future and things But but in the terms of the church, I was disappointed. Thank god How do we, you know do this and a couple of Sundays down the line? I remember we were I was just, you know outside the church I was trying to get some things out and this young man came to me and he said You know, I've been walking around this road this street for a long time. Is there a church anywhere? And so I told him yes, there's a church here and Please come you can come and he came And he his wife was also there. So he came and they came they sat in the church. That was the first Sunday And they they from that Sunday to now They've been serving so faithfully. They are part of the core team leaders So very unlikely way And this family brought another family and they again also started serving and being very faithful to church. So It happened on the street, right? So there will be times when people come people go But the Lord will you know Bring in in the right way in unlikely manners. He'll bring in people into your Team into your ministry bring in the right people Another point to remember is to believe in your team See beyond their struggles, right? Let's read mark chapter 16 9 to 15 mark 16 9 to 15 Yes, one of us. Please read that mark 16 9 to 15 Now when he rose early on the first day of this of the week He appeared first to the Mary Magdalene out of whom he had cast seven demons She went and told those who had been with him as the moon and wet and when they heard that he was alive and Had been seen by her They did not believe after that he appeared in another from from two two of them as they worked and went into this into the country and they went and told it to the rest, but they did not believe Believe them either and later he appeared to 11 as they said at the table and he rebuked the unbelief and hardness Of heart because they they did not believe those who had seen him after he had risen And he said to them go into the world and preach the gospel of every creature. Amen. Amen. Thank you, Abinas This is a very interesting scenario Three and a half years The Lord Jesus has his core team 12 people one of them betrayed him and he saw the end of his own Life and then the 11 are there they saw Jesus being crucified Right now in their mind Jesus is dead Jesus is gone right, so it didn't even Come to their mind that Jesus had kept telling them after three days. I will rise again Uh, they but the point is they have seen The body they have seen the crucifixion. They've seen Jesus dead And in their minds they were assured that Jesus is no more And so when Mary Magdalene and the others came and reported hey Jesus is alive They did not believe the reports. No, no, no, how can it be? We have seen Jesus dead We have seen him and they put him in the tomb and it's three days now. They did not believe They were the chosen disciples They were the men closest to Jesus Jesus personally trained them And I did that they were the core team Now picture they were if you read the Gospels, there were thousands of people following Jesus, but Jesus was with the 12 So they knew everything about Jesus Right the same 11 people did not believe in Jesus But here's what Jesus did Jesus did not say I put my faith in you. I put three and a half years of you know All my hard work We went together with you saw all these miracles. How can you deny me? How can you do this? Jesus did not go on that You see the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. He does not condemn us Right, but what does he do? He corrected them and he said he didn't say okay now after three and a half years I have to choose You know another 20 12 people so that you know, at least they believe in me. No He corrected them and he used the same 12 people 11 people and he said go on to the world Give them the great commission gave them this big vision And the vision was not a small thing go on to the world preach the gospel Now if you think about it These people didn't even believe that Jesus rose from the dead How can Jesus give them the commission to go such a big commission? Jesus believed in his team At that moment they were struggling in faith. They could not comprehend what was happening That was a season of struggle that they were going through But Jesus knew once they go past that moment, they will be equipped. They will be empowered And they will give their lives for the mission So he was placing before them Something that was a great vision a great mission and he knew that he could count on them But he also corrected them and he rebuked them for their unbelief But he did not give up on them This is something that is very important as leaders the Lord Jesus Did not give up on his team in their failures. You and I Are to believe in our team because we've invested in them We've invested in them Whether it's in the workplace, whether in ministry Like there are times, you know, sometimes I You know, you you You've probably ministered or you have a team and they are pinned with you 10 years, for example Then they decide to move out Maybe a better job opportunity or They they want to start their own ministry, whatever it is. Do not You know, hold them back. Do not hold a grudge on them. I don't say, okay No, I was with you. You know, you were with me for 10 years now. You have to stay with me. Don't do that Believe in your team in a way that okay, if there's something better for them something which they can grow And and do better in their life Bless them and send them on their way But you have done your part Of of of nurturing and building them up Right. That's what the Lord Jesus did. He believed in his team. He gave them the commission and he sent them Like even though that that season was not too good for them Uh, he he trusted them. So believe in your team. Uh, you know, some of the things, uh I remember when We were a few people, uh, I would tell the team Let's go out on street ministry and they would say, oh Pastor, I don't think we can do this So I told them see you can do it. Uh, I'll I'll teach you how we will We will learn together. So I would I would teach them how to talk to You know students How to share and then we all used to go on street ministry and eventually now it's a habit You know, of course post after lockdown and during the lockdown we could not go But all of us go So, uh, believe in your team just because they say I can't do it Don't give up on them encourage them Give them ideas give them strategies tell them though that God is there with them to empower them able to do it So believe in your team With just the right people You can overcome the odds Uh judges chapter seven verse seven says God said to Gideon I'll use the 300 men who lapped at the stream to save you and give Midian into your hands All the rest may go home Now this is an interesting event that happened here. If you read the entire story Gideon is ready to go fight against the Midian night army Right and so he tells god god, uh, I need this team. I need a good team to Because the Midian night army is a strong army And Gideon was there. He was ready to go. He had 32,000 men Uh in the army, but 22,000 people were fearful and afraid So god said those who are fearful go back home So he was left with 10,000 people out of the 10,000 people God picked 300 people and he said remaining go back home Right and uh the way he chose them was very interesting. He said, uh, go And drink water from the river and those who lapped the water Which means they took the water in their hands this way and drank the water God chose those 300 men Reason being was that is a sign of readiness A posture of alertness And so these 300 men Went to battle Against a vast Gideonite army Right but god stepped in There were maybe thousands of people on the Midian night army you got 300 people here and They went Gideon won the battle and there was peace in the land of israel for 400 people So sometimes we don't need a large team You don't need 50 people or 100 people in your team at times Sometimes you need just 15 people With the right understanding With passion with zeal With determination To do things It's not about only having a big team The right people Is needed And uh, so People who are committed to the vision of the of the organization. That's what you need Right, there's no point of having you know, uh, Maybe 100 people in the team and out of the hundred 50 people are not when committed 50 people are thinking about other things No So what did god tell 22,000 were afraid send them home. There's no point of going into the battlefield in fear Send them home and so god chose just 300 and through that he You know, he was able to defeat the Midian night army With the right people in place We can overcome the odds Get the right people on board. So When when we say get the right people on board it is uh, it is a journey Right, uh, of course you choose some people they come they may go Uh again building teams is a journey Remember apostle paul even in his ministry. He chose people he he chose teams He chose people to be with him and uh, and eventually he came up. He had a nice strong team with him So get the right people on board Design for maximized function and performance Right now one of the institution that god Uh, you know set up by god is the church if you see the picture of a human body Uh, uh, you know, there are different organs different sizes different muscles And they all function together in order Each unit is kept in place Uh, and each unit has to collaborate with each other So what is design, you know, I love that verse We have fearfully and wonderfully made when you read psalms 139 It pictures such a beautiful portrayal of our lives. It says He knit us together in our mother's womb the meaning, you know to knit. I think women will know better Uh to knit it's not you don't do things. Uh, you know, randomly arbitrarily Knitting is a process where you very Carefully knit so that you don't get the wrong chord in the wrong place. Uh, so if you want to make a towel or a table plot With the design on it. It's it's not easy. You've got to you know, be very careful You need to know which cloth goes which color goes where the lord god Knit us together in our mother's womb. That means what we were we were created You know in a beautiful way The right size not too big right function What is suitable for right position right collaboration of all the parts of the body Uh contributing and sharing together right, uh And important another important thing is to lean Uh to stay lean and stay flat, right? Uh, now I won't we won't read this entire portion. Exodus 18 13 to 36 But let me tell you what happened Moses is leading the people now there's Smaller problems happening now when you got 600,000 people moses can't go and solve all these small problems So then his Father-in-law says why don't you do this you you make teams you And and you know you get people to Look after the different processes involved In dealing with the people and and so more so that moses himself could be more focused on Bigger things bigger issues going to god hearing from god And so moses delegated the responsibility to people Now delegation Is to empower people So for example you know You have a ministry right and you say okay You ask somebody one of your team members. Why don't you lead the prayer? Why don't you be the In charge of Making a roster for the prayers in the morning Then you have a worship pastor you delegate okay worship pastor you make sure that every week there's worship teams that in place They practice they come Then you got a ushering team right and and so you got different teams. So that's delegation Uh, eventually here are the things that Moses set up under his leadership right a judiciary process leaders of thousands Hundreds fifties and tens exodus 18 talks about it right Journey coordination Right 12 tribes 12 leaders Okay, so for example You know moses wanted to convey something to the tribe of juda. It's okay. You'll say The leader of the tribe of juda comes moses conveys or joshua conveys things So it was there was good coordination. So moses didn't have to go searching Where is this tribe sitting or where are they camping? How do I go? Who do I speak? No, it was all Set up governance 70 elders appointed to govern and address daily needs. This was a wonderful move So moses does not have to worry, you know About these smaller Daily problems, you know, he did this this tribe people came here The smaller problems moses could not deal with it, you know Uh, and so governance was also set in place special task force The 12 captains from each tribe to go and spy into the land of kena Then you have the religious responsibilities So he said let's have priests the priests in place will look after the religious You know all the sacrifices look after the services in the tabernacle everything that needs to be done So moses doesn't have to worry is the tabernacle all right Are the things in place? Are the offerings being set in place is is everything okay? He didn't have to worry about that He knew the priests are going to handle that And then lewites lewites will be assistant to the priests So the priests again They delegated responsibilities to the lewites. So they work together as a team So delegating responsibilities is very powerful As leaders Don't keep everything You know, uh, don't do everything on your own As much as possible try to delegate now. It's not like you're Uh, you know pushing off work to others. It's not that way Especially in ministry when you delegate you're empowering people Right. Uh, so what I do is for our worship team I give the church key to the you know the the drummer. They're all part of the worship team They've been for many years. So I tell the worship team you have to come early And we'll open the church. We'll have a quiet time Right. Uh, you know, we uh, you need to set things right Check your instruments Set everything go over the songs think about the songs that we're going to play Sit for some time relax your mind And then we'll get into a time of prayer and worship So initially I was doing that then I realized I need to delegate this So I made one person a leader on the worship team. I said you will make sure that The worship team comes and does this Uh, it was not a it's not something very big But what am I doing? I'm empowering We're empowering the church members I say, okay, uh, telling this other the youth I tell them, okay, you are in charge of The ftv packets or the first time visitor packets and you're in charge of Making sure that hospitality is done right way within the church. So I'm empowering and the students get excited. Wow Okay, so I'm in charge of this. So I need to make sure I do the right way Of course, uh, there will be times when people take it casual Uh, don't just throw them out of the team. Okay, you didn't do well. Remember jesus He was patient and he believed in the team. So tell them, okay See, even though it's a small church when we do it right, you know, uh, I remember for christmas I said, okay, I chose two girls and I said you will Uh, I delegate them and I said make sure that the church decoration is done in a nice way for christmas And I gave them, uh, the you know, I told them here the decorations are you can do it in a nice way You need help you can go to google go to youtube check videos Put in your own thoughts and they did a wonderful job. I didn't have to worry about it at all All right, they they did everything and then they also removed everything and And they were very happy. They said, uh, thank you so much for the opportunity to something small But when you delegate you're empowering them You're giving them, uh, the the feeling that they are important in the team Right, uh, so in ministry delegate delegate and When you delegate give them instructions. Don't just delegate and say, okay, do this Give them instructions. Give them ideas. Give them strategies. Give them plans. Let them know that you're there for any help Let them know that it's okay to make mistakes We can learn together Right, uh, so with this we close chapter six. We'll move into chapter seven and we'll get 10 minutes more But we will move into chapter seven and we will look at innovation and creativity now God is a god of creativity I Okay, Kennedy's got a question here. Did you encounter people who discourage you when you started? At Bangalore church, how did you handle that in relation to your performance? Okay uh Yes, there will be times Kennedy people if if not discouraged, but people may say things Which you know, they they say it meaningfully, but we may get discouraged at times Uh, so for example Uh, there would there would be times when people say, uh, you know the song that you sang especially during worship the song that you sang Uh, you know, it was it was too fast the words. We could not even sing it was too high Yeah, genuine But there are times that you just have to Uh, understand that okay, uh, it's part you take you take advice you take suggestions that they give you But don't let it affect your performance if it's if it's good, uh, if it's, uh, you know They're bringing correction to help us if it's helpful for us definitely take it right, uh There will be many many times right to people have this one time somebody came and said don't wear a black shirt while eating worship and So people remember that there are different kinds of people, right? Different kinds of Temperaments so The thing is we must understand that we are serving god We're serving people. Yes. We are serving god as well. So let it Intentionally tell yourself. No, I'm okay. If I've fallen in this area. I'm going I need to you know pick up. I need to Uh, you know improve myself in that So constructive feedback very important take it improve it in your Don't be discouraged and say I'm never going to do that again. So that would be the wrong thing to do Right. Yes. Mangi. Uh, you raised your hand Thank you, sir. Um just sometimes in in an organization you You're presented with two types of types of people one they'd like to save but they're unskilled and Yeah, whatever you do, they cannot learn to get to the level where you want them to get and second group is Skilled one But undisciplined. How do you deal with those two types of people? Yeah, that's a good question. Mangi. We look at that in this chapter also, but let me just answer your question, right? Now especially in working as a team you will have people who are very skilled and people who are still learning right now If you have people who are very skilled but undisciplined or you know, not Uh, causing trouble causing strife within the team Uh, even though they are, you know Contributing maybe 80 percent of work towards the team As a leader, it's a very difficult choice to make but the right choice to do is to Correct this person in the team who's maybe they you know, sometimes, you know, the people are very skilled They do everything and they feel that they can get away with everything, right? But the right thing to do is to correct that person If you don't see correction you we need to put the team Above the individual I always remember that The team is above supersedes the individual the individual may be giving 80 percent towards the team but after correction after, you know Maybe two corrections and Telling him that, you know, we need to work this way. I know that, you know, contributing towards the team But I see there's strife. I see there's bitterness. I see that you don't treat the others with respect Uh, and and and you know, you're not following certain rules of the organization Remember the team supersedes the individual. So for the benefit of the team, you have to let this person go to is Yes, there will be people who find it difficult to learn And uh, it's not easy But again, I would say if they are honest if they are hardworking and they genuinely want to learn Eventually, they will grow. They will learn. It's better to have People who are, you know, humble and hardworking Performance it will come slowly as they keep learning as they as you give them opportunities Performance will increase it has to it will increase Right? It may take time But then on the bigger picture your team is united Your team is stronger. So always remember Maggie, uh, the the team supersedes the individual Right? Of course, we we do feel bad that hey this person, you know, is doing so well in the team Uh, but I cannot put the team at risk I can't put all maybe 15 of them and 14 of them in the team Uh, uh, I can't put them all at a place of discomfort and uh, just to you know, just because this guy Is a performer now Uh, I do give, you know, you can give them correction. Give them two opportunities. Tell them, okay This is warning one Then you give them a warning letter or and then you tell them, okay strike two We will have to let you go. Uh So so that that has to be done. Yes Maggie, I hope that answers your question Yes, uh, uh, thank you so much. Yeah Especially in uh, you know in organizations in the workplace id companies and you know in business, it's easy to Tell them right and sometimes in businesses. They don't they just tell the person Who's performing? Okay. You just do what you have to do Uh, but then that's a wrong thing to do because You need to make the team happy. Yeah, the team needs to be united. So in ministry telling people To letting go of people is hard but then again, we correct and love we uh, uh We look at that in this chapter as well.
