James Kesselt embrace that brother, embrace that feeling of joy and gratitude in leading and helping people. God is good ALL the time not just when you’re feeling down. Learn to pray, live to pray. There will be times when you need a direct sign from god telling you to move forward in what he has called on you to do. There will be criticism, outside and even inside the church. God bless you on your journey.
Thank you, Lord Jesus! Thank you pastor for sharing this important information. May this knowledge find those whose calling is to preach the word of God.
I will pray for you Michael Patterson, That the KING of Kings and the LORD of lords be with you all of your days..that HE give you strength and wisdom upon all that you could imagine, and that HE lead your footsteps and direct your path..for HIS glory. AMEN!!
Prais the lord dear pastor thanks you so much i felt all these sign and i got experienced in my life. And i have been seen to the JESUS CHRIST in my dream ,and in other dream i saw lot of great pastor of God's they are praying in our house's room corner and One great pastor came from the purpet and catch my hand and take me on the purpet oh God😊🙏And One pastor met to me in sri lanka and catch my boths hand prayed for me and said my son you will serve the lord in the whole wolrd one day you will tell to the peoples this testimoney 🙏thanks God Now im preaching and shating the word of God in famlies and friends .Its my desire to become a pastor please keep me in your prayers all my sister and brother God bless you all all glory to the God❤🌹😊
its everything it is life!!! the second i gave my life to jesus and read the book and understood the word i want to cry, my heart weeps because i was raised in Virginia and now live in Cali and when i look around at all the people that forsaken God its so sad and all i want to do is take them with me...i have so much to preach God shows me tells me so much taught me so much i have so much information perspective love for God fear for God it pours out sometime i learn so much about the bible i dont care about work or money or tv or music only what God has to say....if i could wear a cloth around my body and just praise God ALLLLLLLLL the time i would...i mean no stopping to eat or drink or sleep....but i cant just praise and thank God i need to bring all EVERYONE to God away from Satan because i know so many people who are just misinformed or to busy to look up or to look within themselves ive talked to people before and when you say something to someone and the look comes over their face...the thousand yard stare...they are looking inward. and when i can get someone to do that with God and Jesus in their heart and mind than the rest will burn through their soul like a wildfire in the amazon during the fall season when all the leaves are dried up lol but yes i will become a vessel for God !!! i just dont know where to start!
I usually don't comment on RUclips, but just wanted you to know im going to pray for you. God knows we need more Christians in Cali! Going to make this short. Get involved in a local church, and start serving there. Speak to a pastor that you know is annointed and has the fear of the Lord and seek his mentorship. Like pastor John said here, immerse yourself in the word..pray up..and walk by the spirit constantly and consistently. Also, one of the biggest platforms to reach people is in everyday life..at the job, neighbors etc etc. Phone is dying..lol. Be salt, be light. John 12:32..read it. God bless.
This happened to me,I'm glad I searched for it,I would read passages and the holyspirit will give me a very very deep understanding,I love to teach and most importantly the burning desire to become a pastor,its very unshakable,thank u fr conforming his word to me
Ok I'm 21 and I feel like I have felt this call.. I've had it for the better part of of six months.. I have helped a couple of my friends and witnessed to more than a few people who regularly attend church now... god is great.. he has worked through me.. I'm not baptised. I have sinned in almost every possible way I yet I feel blessed/confused that I feel being a pastor is my calling.. it doesn't makes sense to me... I keep having dreams of giving my testimony and mentoring under a local pastor... I believe god is giving me this but I'm such a sinner.. I don't know if anyone will really take me seriously...
Someone please give me some advice.. I feel it stronger than wanting to raise a family which has been my lifelong goal.. I just don't know where to go from here
I'd suggest that you take this desire and share it with a local pastor that can give you insight in the next steps of your life. How is your involvement within the church? Even now, you can use your gifts to bless the church whether its through small groups or prayer or in your conversations. But I would first talk to a pastor to confirm next steps in your life.
I Tim 3:1 It is a trustworthy statement: if any man aspires to the office of [a]overseer, it is a fine work he desires to do. 2 [b]An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, prudent, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, 3 not addicted to wine [c]or pugnacious, but gentle, peaceable, free from the love of money. 4 He must be one who manages his own household well, keeping his children under control with all dignity 5 (but if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how will he take care of the church of God?), 6 and not a new convert, so that he will not become conceited and fall into the condemnation [d]incurred by the devil. 7 And he must have a good reputation with those outside the church, so that he will not fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
I admonish you to repent of your sins and totally surrender to Jesus before pursuing the ministry. The minister of God will be judged more harshly on judgement day - Titus2:11 For the grace of God has appeared, [f]bringing salvation to all men, 12 [g]instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age, 13 looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of [h]our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus, 14 who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.
Interesting. I've trusted God and Jesus Christ as my savor a long time ago. I'm 50 years old now. I still hear this compelling call to teach and I have on different occasions. I've lead worship. I've taught different age groups. I've sung and I've stay in the word. I've have friends who are pastors who confide in me. Me? Really. they say to me I'm an encouragement to them. But I never took on a full time or even a part time leadership. In fact I'm not deeply involved in any church at the moment and I've been in many trials to this day. I want to teach again but nothing, no opportunities come. Years gone by and now that tug on my heart. Tug Tug Tug. I'm passionate about salvation and truth, I just don't know. Does God want me to pastor? A member at the church has recently said to me, I can see the light of Jesus in you. What does this mean for me?
Brother jus give it a go, you never know! You don't want a scenario where you let our savior down with such a lengthy procastination! Teaching is extremely important in the body of Christ as it requires much more wisdom than jus preaching!
They, only perceive the light of Jesus in you. They seek the smooth pleasentry, of words you have put together, knowing, you won't cause controversy, as you would, if you told the truth. Truth, is offensive. It makes people uncomfortable. I don't believe you're ready. I have perceived thee to be a Sunday keeper. Am I wrong? In order to be ordained by a CHURCH, you must agree with their doctrine. In order to be ordained by God, you must clearly know, what is sanctified, and holy. You MUST know, Christianity, is not under one roof. That is the minefield, of confusion, error, and deceit, I believe, you must face, before knowing with certainty, you are called. I guarantee, your belief system will be trashed, and enlightened. Or you could just, go to some seminary, any seminary, get a piece of paper, and wham, a legal minister, according to the guilty.
If you are feeling that as a calling, teaching martial arts, is s great way to develope people, and get a food in the door to teach them about Jesus, pray on this, you will see the answer, god bless
To be effective for the lord don't get ambitious in the world where your work and money start to take over your life focus on the gift the lord gives you and use it for his purposes only...
This has been my whole life. Ughhhh. I know what I have to do. God seems to tell me I'm ready, I think. I just don't want to help people. I'm afraid I'm coming to a point where I can't ignore God anymore.
If you are a woman you are not! "That women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety....... 10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 1 Timothy 2:9-14 (KJV)
Live giving not life taking ❤ that would be nice more pastors had that gift- i disire mercy not sacrifice - Jesus ❤️ here in Denmark its offen just after the father or just a job/religion. We need more true pastors on fire for the lord here . Peoples spirits here ned watering ✨🙏🌱💚🍇🥖
A guy who told me to try to get out of it. And he said the more you try get out if it the more you can tell if Jesus is calling u to preach because he said u don't want to do it. I talked about what how to become a preacher
Wow this kinda is my situation. I have bad stage freight and I believe I’ve been called to preach. I wish I could just be an assistant and work in the shadows. I do love taking care of the flock but giving speeches in front of people is my weakness.
im here because God keep on giving a sign that i should go in a bible school but i keep on thinking that i dont deserve to be a pastor, i have a lot of sins and im not qualified to be a pastor
Event that i have been experience ,strange or miracle which I wrote in many sites, I am an Arab from State of Qatar this is not my name for personal reasons in the second half of April 2016 , I woken suddenly to witness this this phenomenon I saw on the ceiling of my room clearly and for period a few seconds,it was sufficient the image of the Christ the face clear, as i remembered , i think hinted that his hands back and appearance is very natural without the presence of things out of the ordinary, the face white and a little long, the beard is normal and the hair of the head lays on top of his shoulders the eyes with beauty and sharp looking and features are wonderful resembles from the Middle East Caucasians people , image impressed me with complete clarity . I thought at first that he looked like one of my friends to a slight degree, but quickly I felt inspiration jumped to my mind. He is Christ, I realize and know that all or the majority will not believe I understand , the importance here of what has happened is an ultimate truth. to me about the event using google as assistance to translate Arabic to English ---ظاهرة عجيبة كتبتها بمواقع كثيرة لو كنت بشك. لما دونت حرف واحد وانا مواطن قطري صاحب تعليم وثقافة واؤمن كثيرا بالفكر المادي الحسي ليس هذا اسمي لأسباب خاصة في النصف الثاني لشهر أبريل 2016م وبكامل حواسي ومستيقظ وصاحي كنت نائم فجأة نهضت وكأن اريد لي أن أشهد هذا رأيت على سقف غرفتي بصورة واضحة ولمدة لا اعرف ممكن ثواني لكنها كافية صورة السيد المسيح الوجه واضح وكأني لمحت ان يديه إلى الخلف ومظهره طبيعي جدا بدون وجود أشياء خارجة عن المألوف وجهه شكله طويل قليلا اللحية خفيفة وشعر الرأس يتدلى على بداية كتفيه تقريبا وعيون بها جمال ونظرات وملامح رائعة وابيض اللون وشكله يشبه شعوب الشرق الأوسط و الغرفة بها اضاءة خفيفة والذي أبهرني الوضوح التام للصورة وقد اعتقدت بداية انه يشبه أحد الأصدقاء بدرجة بسيطة لكن بسرعة احسست او إلهام راودني هذا هو المسيح هذه شهادة واوصل كلمتي وهي امانة احس لابد من قولها لا اسعى او ابغي الأموال والشهرة أدرك واعرف ان الكل او الاغلبيه لن تصدق أعذرهم
Pray for me :( I have been praying about this. I am currently on my 3rd Job, yes it is a blessing but that question what if my calling is to be a Pastor keeps on haunting me every now and then. I am a song leader at church though. Pray for me :(
If you have to ask, then God isn't the one doing the calling. If you believe God is calling you and you think that means you need to head to seminary, God isn't the one calling you.
I got one ? If want to become a pastor but you cannot read that way how would you be able to do it I know they have Bibles I know they have CDs audio how would you be able to preach to people would you be able to use to use the audio CD's and show them
Yup, audio bibles and scripture memorization. It may not be academic teaching but you can be very accurate and doctrinally centric, preaching w/ conviction /holiness, grace, and the love of the Lord. No reading can be done.
My father is a pastor at a small church called Shannondale. I have had thoughts that I want to follow that path and take over our tiny church when he leaves. Due to family circumstances in another state, he is kind of being forced to leave our church and move away. I am 24 now and have basically started setting up my life in a small town about 20 minutes away from Shannondale and the church i was raised in. My brothe and I were raised in the parsonage. we ran around the church grounds and played every day. I want so much to take up the mantle so to speak and keep our little church going. I just feel that I am not passionate enough in my faith to teach others. I also feel that without a pastor ( my dad) our church will die. It is a historic church from the thirties. Granted we only have around 20 people in the flock, but they will have nowhere to go. I have prayed, but I feel like I am not hearing or feeling what I should do. Any advise?
I understand where your coming from, I recently stepped up and started preaching in my small church, that was started by my grandfather, then my father took it over. My father passed away last year and I've been doing all I can, I have always felt that call on my life, it's not an easy call but it is a fulfilling call. I would advice you to start teaching and being an active help in the church, God will continue to raise you up in your calling, as you serve in any way u can.
Matthew 28:19-20 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
But, what if you tell the truth, according to Christ, and are still treated as offensive? Now, we're talking being called. What if I should preach the gospel, according to Christ, and the vast majority of Christianity, preaches a gospel ABOUT, Christ? Now, we're talking about being called. I've resisted, over 35 years. I thank God, I am ordained by him. I will never be ordained by Christianity, as we know it.
Frankly I'm shocked the this Pastor left out the most important thing. Requirements and Qualifications! I'll say it again, Requirements and Qualifications! A man (and I do mean men, not women) can have all those prerequisites that he just explained and be single, or divorced , and his wife is still living, to name two examples, and he does NOT qualify for Pastoral office. Period! I don't care how much he thinks he's qualified. This is shocking to me that he didn't say these things FIRST!
I do not want to be a pastor nor do I see myself as one. During a prophecy, I was told I was going to be a pastor. My wife also had a dream that I became a pastor.....The desire is not in my heart. Being a pastor is too much to deal with.
And yet you and your wife had the same dream. Perhaps you haven’t fully accepted God. There could be a strong desire to spread his word, and maybe that will come suddenly in the future. Come closer to God and surrender your tomorrow. If he says preach, preach.
Pastoral gifting doesn't mean you need to be a professional pastor. You can be useful in other ways /positions. Almost any leadership role in church should be pastoral though they aren't the lead pastor.
love you brother but ask yourself this did muhammed heal anyone !! no did muhammed caste out any demons !! no did muhammed forgive his enemies !! no did muhammed carry a sword !! yes did muhammed kill anyone !! yes did muhammed tell people to kill !! yes did muhammed have multiple wives !! yes Yeshua Hamoschiach never had no wife ,Those who follow him he is married to. never commanded anyone to murder anyone. never killed anyone himself. never carried a sword ,he was never scared of death. His disciples were martyred ,they never died in war . His disciples healed people His disciples caste out demons His disciples never carried the sword His disciples forgave those who killed them His disciples .never killed unbelievers, Let The HOLY HEAVENLY FATHER JUDGE each man. No man is holy enough to judge or kill his brother. Christian dont kiss no stone ,Christian dont need to bless YESHUA everytime they say his name because he was so blessed he could do all the things muhammed could not .. Satin copies everything the Elohim of Abraham Issac and Jacob does to confuse people, Satin is the father of lies and has made his own religion to which he spread with the sword and uses jizya as protection money,,,that is gangster. religion YESHUA never force anyone to convert member that... The truth will set you free or you can stay in a prison of hate for anyone who is not a follower of muhammed. I only wish for you what l wish for me ,no hate
I almost cried. Everything you have said. I'm saying thats me! Truly me. This is it. This is my calling..
James Kesselt embrace that brother, embrace that feeling of joy and gratitude in leading and helping people. God is good ALL the time not just when you’re feeling down. Learn to pray, live to pray.

austin aj God bless you Austin, stay close to God, he has only good intentions for your life
Read up on lots of atheist stuff. A lot of the people you will encounter will be atheists and they won't be impressed.
May the Lord be with us in such a time as this brother. Pray, seek his face, and study The Lord together. God bless you abundantly
Nice😌❤
God bless every single one here. I'm 15 and I plan on being a pastor.
Love it! Soak yourself into God’s word and prayer. Stir, and the aroma will blow out of the pot!! Amazing!
This is so helpful - I am wrestling with whether I am being called and this has given me new angles on this.
15 years ago I asked the pastor of my church that same question on a Thursday night visitation meeting. He told me the same thing you're saying.
So much wisdom for anyone thinking about their calling. Not just for a pastoral calling!
EVERYONE WHO HAS, accepted Christ as their Savior SHOULD witness, DAILY. A pastor CANNOT DO IT ALL !!!
Thank you, Lord Jesus! Thank you pastor for sharing this important information. May this knowledge find those whose calling is to preach the word of God.
I will pray for you Michael Patterson, That the KING of Kings and the LORD of lords be with you all of your days..that HE give you strength and wisdom upon all that you could imagine, and that HE lead your footsteps and direct your path..for HIS glory. AMEN!!
AMEN AMEN AMEN! HIS PLAN IS GLORIOUS!
Thank you. Very helpful.
Good stuff! As a pastor myself, I heartily agree!
Deep insight into the pastor's calling. Thank you Lord Jesus. Thank brother for sharing.

@@Victor-kq2ou are you the original poster? If so how has it gone? Nay god bless you even if you dont believe in him anymore
@@okalright3941 ain't atheist or the original poster.God bless you too
Wow this is great
It's a personal thing
I was just commanded to witness
Bibles are available
Most can read!
Pray for me :( I have been praying about this. I am currently on my 3rd Job, yes it is a blessing but that question what if my calling is to be a Pastor keeps on haunting me every now and then. I am a song leader at church though.
Pray for me :(
If you have to ask, then God isn't the one doing the calling. If you believe God is calling you and you think that means you need to head to seminary, God isn't the one calling you.
I need help
You also dont need to feel called. You dont see feeling called to be a pastor in none of the times it talks about becoming an overseer or deacon.
I got one ? If want to become a pastor but you cannot read that way how would you be able to do it I know they have Bibles I know they have CDs audio how would you be able to preach to people would you be able to use to use the audio CD's and show them
Yup, audio bibles and scripture memorization. It may not be academic teaching but you can be very accurate and doctrinally centric, preaching w/ conviction /holiness, grace, and the love of the Lord. No reading can be done.
My father is a pastor at a small church called Shannondale. I have had thoughts that I want to follow that path and take over our tiny church when he leaves. Due to family circumstances in another state, he is kind of being forced to leave our church and move away. I am 24 now and have basically started setting up my life in a small town about 20 minutes away from Shannondale and the church i was raised in. My brothe and I were raised in the parsonage. we ran around the church grounds and played every day. I want so much to take up the mantle so to speak and keep our little church going. I just feel that I am not passionate enough in my faith to teach others. I also feel that without a pastor ( my dad) our church will die. It is a historic church from the thirties. Granted we only have around 20 people in the flock, but they will have nowhere to go. I have prayed, but I feel like I am not hearing or feeling what I should do. Any advise?
Nathan Fulk, key is communion with God reading and meditating His word. God will answer when you seek Him with all your heart
I understand where your coming from, I recently stepped up and started preaching in my small church, that was started by my grandfather, then my father took it over. My father passed away last year and I've been doing all I can, I have always felt that call on my life, it's not an easy call but it is a fulfilling call. I would advice you to start teaching and being an active help in the church, God will continue to raise you up in your calling, as you serve in any way u can.
@@KeepingupwithChrist Sorry for your loss and hope all goes well.
I see it's been 4yrs since you posted this...It'd be interesting to know where you are right now concerning this.
People Say the same thing about false prophets to
hey guys
what was the very LAST line he said at the end of this video??
".....stir the pot............?"
I think it was something along the lines of: and the aroma will blow in a direction; and you follow it.
Is every Christian supposed to make sharing the gospel as their job? I want to be a Professional Basketball player..
Matthew 28:19-20
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
You can spread your faith by using your position as a player to be a good role model.
Look at the life of former Laker A.C. Green.
What are you thinking now?
@@damic7226 Honestly im still trying to figure out what im gonna do. Some advice getting a job, others say working a regular job is serving Satan.
Jesus Christ was abandoned few times so quantity rule doesnt make sense...its about quality of the listeners
If God is "calling" is that not out side revelation?
But, what if you tell the truth, according to Christ, and are still treated as offensive? Now, we're talking being called. What if I should preach the gospel, according to Christ, and the vast majority of Christianity, preaches a gospel ABOUT, Christ? Now, we're talking about being called. I've resisted, over 35 years. I thank God, I am ordained by him.
I will never be ordained by Christianity, as we know it.
I have similar feelings. Can I ask what you do as a day job?
@@michaellemmen Finally retired, but not. Still work as musician.
Jesus never used the word pastor even 1 time blood and flesh cannot reveal Me Pastors that add to Jesus Christ are really confused.
Are you a good liar?? If so u will make a statement excellent preacher.
Frankly I'm shocked the this Pastor left out the most important thing. Requirements and Qualifications! I'll say it again, Requirements and Qualifications! A man (and I do mean men, not women) can have all those prerequisites that he just explained and be single, or divorced , and his wife is still living, to name two examples, and he does NOT qualify for Pastoral office. Period! I don't care how much he thinks he's qualified. This is shocking to me that he didn't say these things FIRST!
Well said but not all necessarily true.
Stir the pot of bible and pray lol. Can I add salt? 😂
I do not want to be a pastor nor do I see myself as one. During a prophecy, I was told I was going to be a pastor. My wife also had a dream that I became a pastor.....The desire is not in my heart. Being a pastor is too much to deal with.
And yet you and your wife had the same dream.
Perhaps you haven’t fully accepted God. There could be a strong desire to spread his word, and maybe that will come suddenly in the future. Come closer to God and surrender your tomorrow. If he says preach, preach.
Pastoral gifting doesn't mean you need to be a professional pastor. You can be useful in other ways /positions. Almost any leadership role in church should be pastoral though they aren't the lead pastor.
the volume of his voice is much to low

Jesus is the way , the truth, and the life

did muhammed caste out any demons !! no

Yeshua Hamoschiach never had no wife ,Those who follow him he is married to.
never commanded anyone to murder anyone.
never killed anyone himself.
never carried a sword ,he was never scared of death.
His disciples were martyred ,they never died in war .
His disciples healed people
His disciples caste out demons
His disciples never carried the sword
His disciples forgave those who killed them
His disciples .never killed unbelievers, Let The HOLY HEAVENLY FATHER JUDGE each man.
No man is holy enough to judge or kill his brother.
Christian dont kiss no stone ,Christian dont need to bless YESHUA everytime they say his name because he was so blessed he could do all the things muhammed could not ..
Satin copies everything the Elohim of Abraham Issac and Jacob does to confuse people,
Satin is the father of lies and has made his own religion to which he spread with the sword and uses jizya as protection money,,,that is gangster. religion
YESHUA never force anyone to convert member that...
The truth will set you free or you can stay in a prison of hate for anyone who is not a follower of muhammed.
I only wish for you what l wish for me ,no hate
I have criminal charges (cannabis before it was legal)... Can I become a pastor, or will god disallow it?
Look at Paul. He murdered Christians and became an apostle
Thank you
