Our core values affect the way we view God, the devil, ourselves, and the world, and therefore they have a huge impact on the way we minister.
They interpret the way events in life relate to God and which circumstances in life we attribute to God. For
Who God is to us, He will be through us! It is so important that we have a pure heart, because it is only the pure in heart (those who have clear lenses) that see God. An angry God creates harsh, judgmental, and graceless ministers.

If we are becoming what we think God thinks of us, and our perception of God’s thoughts toward us are accurate, then we really are being transformed into the image of God!

Can you see that Peter’s revelation of Jesus was connected to the revelation of his own calling?

CORE VALUES FOR SUPERNATURAL MINISTRY
God wants to speak to us more than we want to listen.
All things work in our favor when we serve God, no matter what the circumstances look like. This
God loved us before we loved Him, and He never stops loving us.
We never have to earn His love through good works.
Fear is not a part of God’s love and therefore it shouldn’t be a part of our supernatural ministry.
God has plans for our welfare and blessing. He has no plans for calamity in our life.
We are a special, holy, and royal people.
We are to overcome and overpower anything evil that is against us.
The devil is evil and is behind all the bad stuff in the world. Jesus is always good and does all the great things. We are called to destroy the works of the devil with our supernatural ministry.
We were born to rule through the power of the Kingdom and the love of God.
We are God’s friends and He tells us His secrets.
Signs and wonders follow all believers, not just a few special people.
We have inherited the divine nature and grow in the fruit of the Spirit as we hang out with God.
The world is full of walking wounded—those whose hearts have met the bloody end of the sword of judgment.
Though they may know that Jesus died for their sins, they still live with troubled souls that long for mercy but expect judgment. Oh,
The world is full of walking wounded.
Leaving the old country of death and despair behind, these folks come into the new world of mercy and hope.
The people who successfully leave the old paradigm and begin to live in this new reality are those who understand that there is a dramatic difference between the ministry of the Old Covenant and the supernatural ministry of the New Covenant.
This usually results in a strange mixture of judgment and mercy that is not only confusing but is also self-mutilating, faultfinding, and often downright heartless.
At the foundation of this thinking is a misunderstanding of the nature of the Old and New Covenants. The Old and New Covenants are essentially two different relationships between mankind and God.
In the Old Testament, a believer’s zeal for God was measured by his hatred for those who didn’t walk with the Lord.

We see God make this type of covenant with Abraham in Genesis 15.
God had to die so He could fulfill the requirements of the Law.
The Old Covenant’s entire purpose was to set the stage for the New Covenant.
But remember, a covenant is terminated only by death. Therefore God had to die so He could fulfill the requirements of the Law, create justice, and establish a new covenant, ultimately extending mercy to millions who don’t deserve it.
Sadly, this attitude was expressed over and over throughout the entire Old Testament.
This ultimately led to an entire population trying to behave without knowing God.
When the people asked to live by rules instead of relationship, they chose to labor for their own righteousness, which was a setup for failure.
