Leading God's people

This book explains who is qualified to plant churches and how to go about the work of church planting.The author highlights that a church planter who is a lover of the world has no message to preach because the love of the Father is not in Him. The man with a corrupt conscience will plant a church laden with people of corrupt conscience. The man who is desperate to know God will produce spiritual children who are desperate to know God. A leader who will plant churches must be one who is separated from the common. It is by ruthless paying of the price through prayer, fasting, giving to God and so on that one can penetrate and establish new domains in the enemy's realm.He that will truly serve the Lord in soul-winning and church planting needs to see, for where there is vision, there will be a burden. Burden leads to action.Do you want to become a church planter? Then you need to read this book.

The Heart Surgery of the Potential Minister of the Gospel presents a series of lectures by Professor Zacharias Tanee Fomum to Missionaries and would-be missionaries at the School of Knowing and Serving God (SKSG)-The Missionary Training Academy of Christian Missionary Fellowship International, Yaounde, Cameroon.Drawing from his own life experience and spiritual history with God, Professor Fomum, addressing specific co-workers, explained the kind of life and heart God desires and approves in a minister of the Gospel. He emphasized that God is primarily concerned about 'Who' the Gospel Minister is than what he actually does.In The Heart Surgery of the Potential Minister of the Gospel, the author emphasised the fact that the work of the Gospel requires a certain kind of worker-the right kind of worker in order to please and satisfy the Lord of the harvest. It is only work and service from such a heart that can meet God's approval. He taught extensively on the fact that the content and quality of the heart and life of a Minister of the Gospel is a determinant factor of his acceptance, usefulness, and impact in the service of God. Holiness, radical repentance, and the forsaking of all sins are the expedient attributes and qualifications of a competent minister of the gospel.This book is a must-read for every Minister and would-be Minister of the Gospel who desires that the Lord-the great Physician, should work through the Holy Spirit in him/her to perform the needed surgery that would produce a useful vessel whose life and work can find acceptance before God, bring joy to His heart and receive His approval and commendation.

The choice of leadership among God's people is God's sole prerogative. In this book, Laws of Spiritual Leadership, Professor Z.T. Fomum convincingly shows from the Scriptures why God chooses certain people, as well as the kind of people He chooses for leadership. The content carries a strong voice of Scripture on simple down-to-earth godly leadership principles, with examples from both the Old and New Testaments. Both the aspiring as well as those already involved in Christian leadership will find their lot. The leader must set and maintain a leadership gap between himself and those he is leading. The author suggests twelve such domains in which the potential leader should seek and establish distinction. For, no one can honestly lead from behind. You cannot lead those who are ahead of you in the knowledge and pursuit of God. Never! Leadership is a call to give God to the people. This will be a priceless gift for your leader!

Are you leading out of habit-or out of revelation?In an era where the demands of ministry are expanding across nations and generations, our greatest need is not just more leaders-but continuously changing ones. This powerful work, born from the 2024 Ministry Assistants' Retreat, is designed to shape and stretch the leadership capacity within us.Explore nine distinct biblical paradigms of leadership-from patriarchs and prophets to pioneers and reformers-each raised by God for the unique demands of their time. Through their journeys, you will discover that leadership is not static-but dynamic, dialectical, and deeply personal.As the size and scope of God's mission enlarge, this book calls for a deep transformation of spiritual leadership: a fresh revelation, a deeper consecration, and an openness to the Spirit's direction. It emphasizes a dual responsibility: to mature today's leaders and to make room for the new ones God is raising in response to prayer and faithfulness.This is not a manual of methods but a prophetic push-a call to discern, adapt, embrace diversity, and lead with strategic courage in step with the Spirit.If you refuse to cling to tradition, if you long to rise as a faithful steward for your generation and the next, this book is your blueprint.Let us move forward, forward, forward. The current leader of Christian Missionary Fellowship Internation

This book is an expository study of spiritual leadership.The author, Z.T. Fomum, taught extensively on leadership-training thousands of spiritual leaders across the world-being himself the leader of a growing missionary movement currently established in over 140 countries.The content of the book is not theological discussions, but words from a heart to hearts. Several leaders have become experts in the presence of men in the guise of the ministry they render. But God's plan was that the leader be His companion-a man of His presence. The Lord Jesus established leaders first to be with HIM and then serve Him from a position of overflow. The entire life and ministry of the leader depend on it.The author elaborates on two schools of leadership-the home and the workplace-where one is moulded to provide the model of a God-approved heart for others to imitate.This book will not leave you indifferent. Read it and may God transform you into a leader of His presence.

Spiritual leadership is not automatically maintained! The leader is the one who pays the greatest price increasingly. You cannot neglect that which raised you to leadership and expect to remain as the leader. You became the leader because you loved and sought God. You were constantly in His presence. You were loyal to the leadership above you. If any of these things are now history, then you have lost the things that matter. If you are moving on today by virtue of the price you paid in the past, then you may have been demoted within the years from spiritual leadership. If your input now is regrettably smaller, then it could be that you are no longer God's leader. There are leaders who have lost their position before God and before man. Physically, they may still stand before man, but the leadership has moved hands. Some have moved aside even physically. With vivid examples from Scripture-such as Reuben, Eli, Moses, King Saul, David, Barnabas, etc.-the author shows clearly that talents, spiritual gifts, and a fine personality are no guarantee that a spiritual position will be retained. In the end, the author paints a portrait of how to jealously guard one's position and place in God's heart.

David was anything but perfect-lustful as a husband, weak as a father, and partial as a leader-yet he is the only one in all Scripture to be called "a man after God's own heart". What was it in David that attracted God this much? After the historic victory with Goliath, the life of this humble shepherd boy seemingly took a downward turn. In all the series of unfortunate circumstances, God was at work, rerouting his life. Starting with a group of riff-raff, this cave dweller became the leader of an exceptional army because God wanted him to become a maverick king: In battle, he modeled invincibility. In decisions, he sought God's mind for clarity, wisdom, and equity. In loneliness, he wrote with transparent vulnerability and quiet trust. In friendship, he was loyal to the end. In statesmanship, he portrayed integrity and humility. What an outstanding man! But what is it that distinguished David as one of God's greatest men? Come along with professor Z.T. Fomum in this down-to-earth book on Spiritual Leadership, for an in-depth study on the making of this poet, musician, courageous warrior, and shepherd of God's people-a man of passion and destiny with a God-dependent life of strength and leadership worth emulating.
