Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s. The Apostle Paul regarding purity from fornication gave this instruction. Because this sin is so seriously it breaches the fellowship between God and the believer we are told to flee it
Between God and the believer we are told to flee it.
We are further told that our bodies are not for fornication, but for the Lord. Fornication is not limited to sex between unmarried heterosexuals. Simply put, if you are unmarried you are call to a life of Celibacy. Because promiscuity has become so prevalent in our society many have made a commitment to not be sexually active with other people before they are married.
To live celibate means to abstain from sexual intercourse, but those of us who are born again and single are called upon by God to abstain from sexual acts period. When the Apostle Paul addressed the issue of marriage in I Cor 7:1.22. He also revealed a very profound truth that often escapes us. He revealed that celibacy is a gift. Gift in this text means deliverance from passion or danger as spiritual endowment. It also means a favor, which one receives through no merit of his own.
Since God has called upon us to present our bodies holy and acceptable to him, in his faithfulness he has provided the grace by which we can do this. He has not lift us to struggle powerlessly in mental anguish trying to live out a commitment made through the flesh. But rather by the power of the Holy Ghost we can subdue the flesh. A celibate life is not just our gift of God, but also Gods gift to us. When we are wholly surrendered and controlled by God in every way he molds shapes and designs us for his divine purpose. When the season is right we become a gift to the person that God has chosen for us. What better way to enter marriage? Pure, holy, and consecrated. Glorifying God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.

Apostle Column of Grace
The times has come to allow God to have his way in your spirit and to do what God has come you to do in the power of your spirit, if you don't submit to God with all your hear, you will always have struggles in your life. This is your apostolic season to do the work of an apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, and teacher; and if you do this, you will walk in the full power of your calling. This is what you need to do. You need to unite with a powerful apostolic of the fivefold ministry organization in these end times, and when you unite with them, ask them for help, and submit yourself to God, to lead you where you need to go in the spirit of your gift. Gifting is in you, you are a very gifted man or women of God, and you need to know that, and believe that. God is going to bless you and give you every thing you need for your ministry gift. Can I ask you something? Are you humble or proud. are you the kind of person that are submissive to authority or do you like to do what you want to do. If you do, you need help in the spirit.
I am yours in the spirit
Love Apostle S. E. Calvin
Testimonies
Sister Brenda Ellis
Four years ago I was indulging in drugs, using cocaine. One morning a friend came to visit, to get me high, but he stole from me. At that time I went upstairs to the bathroom, and began to look in the mirror and a voice was saying to me… "Look at yourself, what if your children found out you’re getting high, and what if you sister and mother found out?" I began to cry and was led to my bedroom and I began to cry even more. I fell to my knees and said, "Jesus help me!" I don’t want to use drugs any more. I had a made up mind with a sincere heart and instantly I was set free. God delivered me from cocaine and he took the urge and taste for cocaine out of my mouth. I’ve been free from drugs for eight years.
Thanks are to God!
Brother Willie's Testimony
After years of doing drugs, drinking alcohol, smoking pot and cigarettes I hit rock bottom in April of 1996. I’d hit bottom before and been through rehab twice. The last time I went through rehab, I quit drugs and alcohol for three months but soon I found myself hanging with my old crowd again. Soon I was doing dope again. This time I thought I was controlling and handling my drug addiction better. I started going to church every now and then but I knew that I was just trying to hide out and pacify my family.
My wife joined a new church, a sanctified church, which meant she would be going to church more, leaving me more time to hang out and do drugs. I was right about having more time to do drugs, but I also started to lose complete control. I was doing more drugs, spending more money, and staying away from home more.
My last night of doing drugs, I knew things were about to change, but I didn’t know how much. My wife was sitting up waiting for me that night as I was trying to sneak in the house. As usual, I try to talk my way out of another one of my messes, but that wasn’t working. I’d even offered to go to rehab again but that didn’t work either. So I asked my wife if she thought the Pastor could help me, she said "maybe, why don’t you call him now". I truly need someone to talk to, and truly wanted to stop my drug addition, however, I had no intention of giving up my other sinful ways of life. So I called Pastor Calvin and told him that I would come to church that Friday night; and for the first time in my life I was glad to be in church. I promised Pastor Calvin and my wife that I would attempt to stop my drug addiction. I didn’t mean I would stop smoking cigarettes or drinking alcohol. That next day after I went to church, God took the taste of drugs, alcohol and cigarettes out of my mouth and I haven’t had any since that night.
Two weeks later, I joined the church and got saved. The Lord has truly blessed me, I have peace of mind, and my family respects me again, my wife and I are husband and wife again. I once told my wife, there’s no way I could ever be like you, she looked at me as if I was crazy, and said "what do you mean?’ I said, look at you, you don’t smoke, you don’t drink, you don’t go out, you to church four times a week, and you don’t have any fun. I could never be like that. Well…that was before I MET JESUS!!!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!!!

I’m Saved and I’m Single
It had been said that marriage is like a besieged city! Those on the outside want to get in and those on the inside want to get out. In many cases this is true. Never the less both the married and the single lifestyle are designed by God to bring honor and glory to his name and a special fulfillment to those who live them.
The participant in each lifestyle is filled with joy and challenge. There is a joy in knowing that one’s sins are forgiven and that we are new creations in Christ Jesus. Yet we face the daily challenge of presenting or bodies as living sacrifices holy and acceptable unto God. Of course the challenges of Christendom are not restricted to either lifestyle, but are profoundly different in each.
The Bible teaches us to glorify God in our bodies and in our spirits, which are God’s. While this is written to the church as a whole, it has special significance for the person who is single. The single person has the special privilege of ministering to God with singleness of heart and mind. In other words their primary focus need only be on God himself and how to please him without consideration for a spouse. The single lifestyle affords ones the freedom to enjoy true intimacy with God. Through commitment, dedicated prayer, study of the word, faithfulness land obedience, the single person taps into a realm that is supernatural.
This kind of relationship brings oneness with God that governs all areas of their life and empowers them to meet the challenges of the single lifestyle with confidence and victory. When one has been joined unto the Lord and lived a life that’s pleasing to him as a single it is at that time they are entrusted with marriage and their capacity to become one flesh with another person is realized. Therefore the single lifestyle should not be regarded as a place of inferiority as in incomplete but rather as a place of privilege preparation and wholeness. When it is lived under the power and the influence of the Holy Spirit, it truly is.

What is a Missionary?
A Missionary is a person sent on a mission: Sometime a special mission; by the Church to preach, teach the Gospel of Christ, and to proselytize. To mankind, missionary work is a diplomatic delegation: it also included charitable works, for the needy: Missionaries are called by God to do his will. Hallelujah!
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher, teacher? And how shall they preach, except they are sent? As it is written, how beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things. (Romans 10:13-15) Glory! The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in they heart that is, the word of faith, which we preach as missionaries of the P.H.K.I.M. 2000.
God said the harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few; as missionaries we should pray the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest. (Matthew 9:37)
A Missionary can be an example of a "sower" going forth to sow seeds, meaning the word of God. A missionary ought to sow goods seeds for God’s kingdom to win souls for Christ Jesus, for the son of man shall come in the Glory of the father with his angels; and the he shall reward every man according to his works.
