The Assignment Apostle Joshua Selman

IntroductionIn Acts chapter 1, the disciples did not really have the opportunity to understand the full scope of what Jesus came to do even though Jesus taught them in the fundamentals of the kingdom during His earthwork. Because they were not filled with the holy spirit, there were things they could not bear. Jesus Himself said it. Some of those many things were what He spent forty days teaching them after His resurrection. He said, "I have many things to teach you but you cannot bear them now but when He, the spirit of truth comes, He will guide you. Some of the things that I said but you did not understand, He will bring them back to your remembrance". So many times, you will see the disciples remembering certain things that Jesus had said. But it is important for us to understand the assignment because not understanding our corporate mandate as believers, where we are coming from and where we are going is one of the reasons why there are a lot of confusions in the body of Christ. There is an old story that predates our existence. We came in the middle of history and it is only intelligent that we look back to be able to understand by the spirit what happened and what it is all about. Church service, miracles, breakthroughs, etc what are they all about? Nothing is supposed to be celebrated in isolation. Everything is supposed to find its credence when and if connected to the kingdom. The challenge is that we have not connected them to the kingdom so while we celebrate them and learn about them, they are just the promotion of flesh and human agenda.
