Comments on: So, You Want To Be An Armor Bearer (Part 1) http://www.yourministryhelper.com/so-you-want-to-be-an-armor-bearer-part-1.html tips and solutions for the business side of ministry Mon, 08 Mar 2010 04:12:04 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Steven http://www.yourministryhelper.com/so-you-want-to-be-an-armor-bearer-part-1.html/comment-page-1#comment-10844 Steven Mon, 08 Mar 2010 04:12:04 +0000 http://www.yourministryhelper.com/?p=685#comment-10844 Valerie, I've never really heard of a armor bearer until tonight. I went with a dear friend of mine, whom I consider to be my bestfriend. He was the guest speaker at this church. The pastor's wife, who had never meet me before, asked if she could pray for me at the end of the service. And she said that she had to do what God told her to do. She prayed for me and told me that God wanted her to tell me that I was going to be my friends armor bearer, that I would go everywhere that he went. That I would always be there for him. I know that God told her this because His presence was so strong in that church tonight. It was an amazing service. I wanted to try and find out everything I could about being a armor bearer. Any info you could give would be very grateful. Valerie,

Since you are military, think of the role of an armor bearer as an adjutant. In fact, some churches call their armor bearers adjutants. It is essentially the same, except one of your weapons is prayer. There are two other posts on this blog: <a href="http://www.yourministryhelper.com/so-you-want-to-be-an-armor-bearer-part-2.html" rel="nofollow">So You Want to Be An Armor Bearer Part 2</a> and <a href="http://www.yourministryhelper.com/friends-serving-friends-in-ministry.html" rel="nofollow">Friends Serving Friends In Ministry</a> that may also be helpful to you. Two books that I recommend are: God's Armor Bearer by Terry Nance (a link is in my sidebar) and Improving Your Serve by Chuck Swindoll. I think you will do well.

This is a church that is just starting out and has yet to have its 1st service (God willing, our 1st service will be in march). The task before me is enormous, I was in the military for 22 years so the personal security part I have down. However there is so much more involved. Long before I even met the Pastor I was struggling with finding a church home and how I could serve God and help a churh. Really all I can bring to the table is my security training, organization skills and my life experience. Money is tight we are just starting out with a new church so I am trying to find whatever I can get a hold of for training. Any information you may have, or low cost resourses you are aware of would be helpfull. Thank you for posting this site, and God Bless you.
