We were greatly encouraged to intensify our efforts by the response and testimonies of the move of the Holy Spirit at the various churches we have ministered, and by the number of souls revived, won and reconciled unto God and by words of encouragement and supports from those ministers of God who believed and shared the vision with us.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Tahoma&quot;&gt;OUR MISSION STATEMENT&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;Over the years drama (theatre) has been interpreted as entertainment, so little recognition was bestowed on evangelical drama. But we are sure that God in His infinite wisdom raised drama evangelism for His end-time programme of winning the sinners and expansion of His kingdom. We are in the Drama and Film ministry to fulfill God&amp;rsquo;s purpose as a vessel unto honour.&lt;br&gt;1. By saving the lost through drama evangelism.&lt;br&gt;2. To equip the saints for end-time harvest. &lt;br&gt;3. To evangelize the whole world through anointed drama ministration.&lt;br&gt;4. To revive the backsliders through power packed drama.&lt;br&gt;5. To warn and exhort the believers through stage and electronic media.&lt;br&gt;6. To expose the secrets of darkness, world, satan and his cohorts. &lt;br&gt;7. To populate the kingdom of God via drama evangelism Acts 26:18. &lt;br&gt;8. To wake up the sleeping giants churches Eph.5:4, Rom 13:11&lt;br&gt;9. To create and Foster Unity among churches of Christ World wide &amp;ndash; Jn 17:18. &lt;br&gt;10. To raise an able army for the Lord through drama and film productions. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;h3&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;+0&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Tahoma&quot;&gt;WHAT WE DO: OUR WINDOWS OF SERVICES &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;h3&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;+0&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Tahoma&quot;&gt;STAGE DRAMA OUTREACHES&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;The Lord has given unto us powerful, hell shaking and revival sparking drama messages that will surely bring positive change to your church.

Film outreach evangelism should be properly explored. What men see matters a lot. It is what men see that has brought the world and then the church to the level they are today. &lt;br&gt;The world has used the strategy of visual Aids so well and that is why the church is at the receiving end.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;At &lt;b&gt;Disciples ministries,&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;we have the best Projector, film show equipment and heart stirring films (both local and foreign that can bring sinners kneeling at the Cross.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Tahoma&quot;&gt;OUR FILM LIBRARY AND COLLECTIONS &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Disciples have up to date Christian Video, VCD on Salvation, Revival, Deliverance etc.&lt;br&gt;Visit us at our corporate office or e-mail us: &lt;a href=&quot;http://disciplesdramafilm.wetpaint.commailto:disciplesdramafilm@yahoo.com&quot; target=&quot;_self&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;+0&quot;&gt;disciplesdramafilm@yahoo.com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A good film showing with powerful Projector will attract crowd and lead to positive result inform of church expansion and growth.

The devil is building up an impregnable iron wall against the world evangelization. Drama evangelism is one of the growing wave of evangelism and mission activity that could result in the great commission being fulfilled in this generation. &lt;br&gt;Nowadays churches should embrace the potent weapons of drama evangelism to meet his spiritual desire i.e. church expansion, church planting, total evangelism, mission awareness and other evangelism oriented programmes. &lt;br&gt;The Lord in His infinite wisdom deliberately reserved Christian drama evangelism and film production to the end-time to counter evil effects of secular occultism, traditional drama that has eat deep into the fabrics of believers and non believers throughout the world. &lt;br&gt;&lt;hr size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description></item><item><title>props design</title><link>http://disciplesdramafilm.wetpaint.com/page/props+design</link><author>disciplesdramafilm</author><guid isPermaLink="false">http://disciplesdramafilm.wetpaint.com/page/props+design</guid><comments>props</comments><pubDate>Fri, 15 Feb 2008 09:30:40 CST</pubDate><description>&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;                       THE EFFICACY OF PROPS IN CHRISTIAN DRAMA&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;      &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Christian drama can be performed on common sets namely the stage  ,film/studio/audio.

It places the mililtant instrument on an advantageous side.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The neglected or rejected as being used in this contex, are most valued instrument .they last longer than the accepted. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;They are better instument of springing surprises to the enemy .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The enemy will never take them serious until they have disgrace, dethrone and possibly ,eliminate the enemy.this explains why GOD specializes in using them &amp;ndash;&lt;b&gt;the rejected stones.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;David was a rejected stone .he therefore ,enjoyed unusual coverage of heaven and in ordinate negligence by the greatest enemy in the land &amp;ndash;chief goliath .goliath ,who could have accorded normal ,professional militant attention to his counterpacts,did not see any reason to prepare against david ;hence his sudden dethronement and death .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Joshua , as a professional soldier , was instructed not to use the most accepted object of war .he used the rejected&amp;rsquo; tool (the musical instruments) in waging the war against their enemy in Jericho .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The instruments (rejected stones) were quite childish and unbelievable that the enemy took them for fun makers; hence their unprecedented penetration and occupation of the enemy&amp;rsquo;s territory. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Gideon thought of waging the Lords battle with lots of majority and professionals but God stopped Him ;insisting on few who are prepared and ready to sacrifice their lives for the vision &amp;lsquo;He proved to them that success does not rely on majority nor professionalism and mental boldness ;but God enthroning those whom He wishes. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Our Lord Jesus Christ,was a rejected stone .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;He was much neglected and rejected than many of his fellows.Most of his people did not believe in Him. He was rejected, despised ,tortured and crucified until God rose Him up on the third day ;giving him a name greater than any other name.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Today, the more attempt a generation gives to terminating the name and influence of Jesus ,the more it spreads like wild fire.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Infact,Christ had to foretell His death [crucification matter]to His disciples in order to establish two crucial points:&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;1.The need to stick , steadfastly ,to God in PRAYER when the revealed signals to a particular vision is being actualized ,one after the other.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;2.The need to disabuse the minds of His Disciples ,on time ,from thinking that He was merely disgraced and silenced by Devil .there was need to establish a foundation upon which further revelation ,after His death ,is to be built.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;THE FACT&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Although most times rejected stones have nothing comparable with other available STONES in terms of QUALITY , TEXTURE and COLOUR ,their relevance becomes in evitable when the Architect / Chief Engineer decided to make them the Chief CORNERSTONE. That changes the matter .Every other stones ,within the building ,has to take bearing from the rejected stone,the cornerstone ,if it ever intend to survive.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;That&amp;rsquo;s what God is saying .He is choosing the foolish things of the world in order to shame the wise;He is upholding deliberately ,the weak and despised to bring to naught the much celebrated creature of His creature. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;He is laying in zion for a foundation a stone ,a tested stone ,a precious cornerstone of sure foundation ;He who believes [trusts in , relies on , and adheres to that stone and what the stone is doing ] will not be ashamed or give way or hasten away [in sudden panic] Isaiah 28 : 16[Amplified version]&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;FOOD FOR THOUGHT&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;-The most neglected are the most powerful &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;-The foolish tools are the most strategic tools &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;-Every aggressive combatant is entitled to enough confronters &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;-Much action, few words are the key of the most neglected .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;THE UNDERSTANDING THAT COMMANDS OUTSTANDING&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;[Strictly For The Record]&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;It is necessary to start emphasizing that drama evangelism, as being practiced in recent time ,is quite different from what has been obtainable in the recent past.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;It is a new concept of evangelism ; a new concept of dramatic presentation .Certainly the concept can only be appreciated by those who really participated in various drama evangelism[gospel troupe and drama groups] in secondary schools and higher institutions of higher learning between early 70s and early 90s .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Although it is an indisputable fact that most men and women who participated in the aforementioned, are no more in drama evangelism diverting to more acceptable and respectable offices like the pastorate ,bible studies ,ushering , business circle and social ,including anti &amp;ndash;scriptural , programme moderating &amp;ndash;contributed immensely ,through their zeal and readiness to be busy for the Lord ,to the development of this new concept of drama evangelism .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The point we want to strike here is that drama evangelism ,as of today is taking a new form- a more serious platform of intensive spiritual explosion through the use of most instruments quite associated with the entertainment industry.Thus , all those who participated in Christian drama in 1960s ,Nursery /Primary schools ,Christmas times ,will discover that drama evangelism today is been developed on an entirely different platform and dimension form what it previously obtained .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Evangelical drama ,as of today ,is being built on two cardinal perspectives : &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;[a]Evangelical drama as a ministerial tool [divine instrument of communicating God&amp;rsquo;s WORD to people .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;[b]Evangelical drama as unique arm of artistic world .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Simply put , evangelical drama is falling into two crucial aspect of the [Nigeria] society &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;:[RELIGION] and ENTERTAINMENT].&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;1.RELIGION : Take it or not , as far as the society is concerned, evangelical drama is part and parcel of Religion since it is centered on the message of the cross.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;2.ENTERTAINMENT [industry] :all forms of drama [whether academic ,social , classic , anticlassic , or philosophical ] is considered an inevitable member of the entertainment arena. Thus , evangelical drama [film] is simply a unique species of the entertainment arena / industry .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;It is this dual nature of drama evangelism that has discouraged , confused and establish some ministers and ministries .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Thus , every drama minister is expected to function as a minister of God and artiste through spiritual and artistic preparation .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;h3&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot; face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;PROPHETIC ROLE of DRAMA EVANGELISM IN ENTERTAINMENT ARENA&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The prophetic role of drama evangelism in the entertainment arena , industry is that of leadership ,impartation and spiritual awakening .The role is anchored on the prophetic declaration of the mountain of the Lord&amp;rsquo;s house becoming the greatest of the mountains ; the rejected stone becoming the corner stone and the glory of the latter surpassing the former .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Although other forms of artistic performance ,of whose foundation and pattern have been established in ages long , seem to be dominating ,soon &amp;ndash; like Moses introduced the man who ushered the Israelites into the promised land [Joshua] john the Baptist introduced the Saviour of the world [Christ ] ; Haman introduced Esther ,and the industrial revolution ushered in the so &amp;ndash; called globalisation phenomenon &amp;ndash; they will begin ,consciously and unconsciously ,to introduce and usher in the leading king , a unique specie ,of the entertainment industry [the world of drama evangelism] .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The signals are not far &amp;ndash; fetched .As already indicated in the international Movie chart ,a compilation of Global Entertainment Network, Nigeria is fast growing to becoming the highest producers [makers] of movies [films] in the world .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The same Nigeria ,since 1996 , has been assembling ,in silent and grooming pattern ,some set of people to enthrone evangelical drama and films in the world .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; You better watch it !&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The international Media Agency;s report has shown that ,after the communication industry , the movie [film] industry is the second most fast &amp;ndash; growing , money yielding and job creating industry in the world.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;But for space we could have taken a look , one after the other ,at the aforementioned countries . nevertheless ,for effective occupation of our own Jerusalem [Nigeria] and the need to understand the trend of event surrounding this sector we are destined to lead ,one cannot hesitate to make a cursory glance at some crucial aspects of the report .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;From the report, it obvious that:&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;1.Nigeria has really beaten world record [Holly wood] in quantity production &amp;ndash; a clear testimony of over &amp;ndash; zealousness , diligence and competitive spirit.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;2.While most world leading motion pictures are shot on celluloid [the most expensive method] Nigeria is inevitably creating waves through mere video- tape recording .This accorded to her , cost efficiency in production as well as easy transformation into the world of &amp;lsquo;digital&amp;rsquo;the most current and treasured method of film packaging .With this in view, most world celebrated leaders in movie industry are currently seeing Nigeria as a threat .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;3.Despite the fact that there is low support of government and governmental agencies in film packaging ,Nigerians are not really spending much in tax and other government related matters.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;4.The percentage of film export from Nigeria is inevitably low &amp;ndash;showing that most Nigerians films being viewed abroad ,are either products of piracy or secret initiative of producers through outlet network.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;5.A number of participants [rocognised members of the movie industry] in Nigeria will soon outmatch the famous Chinese actors .Yet ,the evangelical aspect is still vacant. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;COURTESY OF &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;DISCIPLES DRAMA AND FILM MINISTRY INTERNATIONAL&lt;/font&gt;

The devil is building up an impregnable iron wall against the world evangelization. Drama evangelism is one of the growing wave of evangelism and mission activity that could result in the great commission being fulfilled in this generation. Nowadays churches should embrace the potent weapons of drama evangelism to meet his spiritual desire i.e. church expansion, church planting, total evangelism, mission awareness and other evangelism oriented programmes. &lt;br&gt;The Lord in His infinite wisdom deliberately reserved Christian drama evangelism and film production to the end-time to counter evil effects of secular occultism, traditional drama that has eat deep into the fabrics of believers and non believers throughout the world. &lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;hr size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description></item><item><title>FREE BOOKS</title><link>http://disciplesdramafilm.wetpaint.com/page/FREE+BOOKS</link><author>disciplesdramafilm</author><guid isPermaLink="false">http://disciplesdramafilm.wetpaint.com/page/FREE+BOOKS</guid><comments>free book</comments><pubDate>Wed, 03 Oct 2007 06:09:19 CDT</pubDate><description>&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;CHAPTER ONE &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;CHRISTIAN DRAMA AT A GLANCE&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;ldquo;To the weak become I as weak, that I might gain the weak; I am made all things to men.

At this end time God has chosen his own for exploits in the ministry. Unto these ones he has given the staff or rod to perform.

It may be received through God&amp;rsquo;s calling prayer, dream or divine revelation. Vision can also be defined as an idea, burning zeal or burden concerning spiritual issue. The vision will propelled you forward in your endeavor even in the presence of discouragement obstacles or problems it will make you to remain focused and work hard toward achieving your God given goal or making your dream a reality. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;It will give you stability in life through divine vision God speaks to the called ministers his intent and purpose. The purpose for which he wants the ministry established will be revealed. No Christian ministry can succeed without a vision. One truth about it is that with every divine vision God makes all round provision. Each vision also has its times of materialization. The book of Habakkuk says that the revelation ( vision ) awaits an appointed time; through it may tarry it will certainly come &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Habakkuk 2:3&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;FIFTH IS GIFT AND TALENT&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;:-&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The book of Ephesians 4:11-12 says God gave gift to people, he appointed some to be apostles others to be prophets, evangelist, pastors, teachers e.t.c. The drama evangelist should be good custodian of God&amp;rsquo;s gift and talent. God gives gift to prepare his servants for the work of Christian service, in order to build up the body of Christ. A gift opens the way for the given and usher him to the presence of the great in the society. A drama minister is usually given a talent to perform or act.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; A gift always accompanies a call. The Bible tells us that there are many gifts but the holy spirit gives according to his will. Under the umbrella of drama there are many other categories or simply specialization area that one can specialize. It is not advisable for all the drama ministers to be actor or actress.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; All the divers gift in drama ministry are for the perfection of the entire drama production. Each man is made a servant of gospel by God&amp;rsquo;s special gift, which he gives through the working of his power Ephesians 3:7&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;THE SIX FACTORS TO CONSIDER IS THE &lt;u&gt;ANNOINTING &amp;ndash; FOR &amp;ndash; EXPLOIT.&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The anointing refers to the consecration, dedication and setting apart of a person to serve God in ministry. It is the anointing of the holy spirit that commissioned one into a ministerial office. When the anointing was transformed from Elijah to Elisa, he automatically received power and authority in his prophetic ministry. The anointing will always make difference in the drama ministry and ministration.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; It is the presence of the power of God, the spirit and grace, to minister and carry out God&amp;rsquo;s special assignment.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Seven.

The minister should not fear or procrastinate to take the necessary action towards making exploits in the drama ministry. The leader should seek the face of the Lord in prayer, fasting, scripture searching for other steps to be taken; i.e. members and mission, training, getting invitation, ministration e.t.c&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;hr size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description></item><item><title>DRAMA REVIVAL</title><link>http://disciplesdramafilm.wetpaint.com/page/DRAMA+REVIVAL</link><author>disciplesdramafilm</author><guid isPermaLink="false">http://disciplesdramafilm.wetpaint.com/page/DRAMA+REVIVAL</guid><comments>revival</comments><pubDate>Wed, 03 Oct 2007 06:04:02 CDT</pubDate><description>&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot; size=&quot;5&quot;&gt;DISCIPLES DRAMA AND FILM MINISTRY INTERNATIONAL&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;37 AROBABA STREET ,OFF PIPELINE IDIMU LAGOS&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;P.O.

Psalms:85:1-5&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;,God opened our eyes to see His intention to use drama as a weapon to bring about salvation of souls,deliverance and revival to lukewarm souls.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;GOD had invested so much in Christian drama to the extend that there is no where a drama is to be staged that will not attract people .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Many of our missionaries on mission fields are now making use of drama as a means of bringing people to gether.many churches can not do without staging a drama during crusades, revivals and other programmes.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The trend of drama evangelism in Nigeria has extend tremendously to the extend that people form the nooks and corners of Nigeria have been testifying to what God is doing through evangelical drama ministrations, &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;There are many drama ministries in AFRICA now , day by day ,the total numbers of ministry keeps increasing. Many new names keep coming out and many ministries keep going on locations while many keep staging drama from place to place . but the question in the heart of the people is that,with all this increase of drama ministries,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;why is it that revival still tarries in the ministry , yes ,some may say that there are enough drama ministries in NIGERIA presently that God can use to cause revival in the land ,but it is a pity that despite the fact that we have so many drama ministries in the land ,there have been very few results .our impact has not been so much felt by the people .many of us keep complaining about the secular dramatists polluting our nations ,through their lifeless, destructives and demonic films.tet we are doing nothing .we fold our arms professing that we are taking over the land with our mouth while sleeping and our weapon (drama) perishing.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Every day on my knees , &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;I keep asking God that while does revival tarries to this extent in drama ministry ,I keep asking God that ,why have we not been able to go beyond this lavel ,why do we keep on having drama ministries without the anticipated impact ,why does God keep silent about the trauma befalling drama ministry .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;And there came an answer from GOD THAT ,THE REASON WHY REVIVAL TARRIES IN DRAMA ministry is because &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;,we are not where God wantus to be .GOD said it is we (drama ministers ) that have caused the revival to tarry as a result of our disobedient .with the definition of revival and tarry compare with what GOD had told us ,we could see that revival cannot come until certain things are removed witin the ministry .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;WHAT IS REVIVAL-revival means to return ,to restore and to quickening.&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;WHAT IS TARRY &amp;ndash; to tarry means to stay when you are supposed to leave .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The drama ministry has tarried so much on shallow level ,we need to forge ahead ,here is not where God has promised us , infact ,it is far from here , we need to restore hope and confidence to the people &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;.it is high time people watch films or drama that will keep them from asking irrelevant questions.remember for every vision GOD gives to a man,there is always an expectation attached to it .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;GOD expect you and I to do something with the vision he has given to us .stop looking at your mistakes and failures .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Don&amp;rsquo;t fear failure so much that you refuse to try new things ,for how long will you deliberate on where you are coming from ,stop looking at where you have been and start &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;looking at where you can be. come on, rise up and move to where you belong .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Every area of your calling as a drama and music minister shows that you have been given a unique ministry, if it will take a man to cause revival in the whole land of Scotland , haba! we are enough to bring down revival to Africa and the world at large. &amp;lsquo;&amp;lsquo;And five of you shall chase an hundred , and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword&amp;rsquo;&amp;rsquo; LEV 26 ; 8 .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Fellow drama and music army the two account we are going to give in heaven is SALVATION ACCOUNT and MINISTERIAL ACCOUNT and if you refuse to make history with your ministry now , you will definitely become history in your ministry. Stop looking at your ability , success and your achievement so far , but focus your attention on those things you have not been able to do , and not only to focus on them start mapping out strategies to achieve them .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;REASONS WHY REVIVAL TARRIES IN DRAMA MINISTRY. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;With the above subject mentioned , some people may still doubt and say they are not enough reasons why revival should tarry in drama ministry and they keep asking themselves that , what then cause revival to tarry in drama ministry , the following are reasons among others . infact the ten major reasons why revival is delayed in drama ministry ;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;1, LACK OF GENUINE SALVATION . Heb . 6 ; 9 &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Salvation is the basis for ministerial exploits , without a genuine salvation , there can never be a revival , it is a tragedy that many drama ministers in Nigeria today lack genuine salvation and that is why many drama ministrations that ought to change lives have turned to entertaianment ministrations .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;2, LACK OF VISION Prov 29 ; 18 &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;It takes a man of vision and revelation to cause revival . so many drama ministry has no vision . they have no purpose for gathering . but they keep going for ministrations while some keep going on locations without knowing where they are heading to .&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;what you see &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Determines what you run after and it also determines your strength . any drama ministry without a vision will not be productive let alone causing revival . A drama minister can tell you that he has been in the ministry since twelve or forteen years ago , but Ask him , what has he been doing since then / Nothing ; because he lacks vision and without vision there is no future&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;3, DIVIDED ATTENTION 1Kg 13 ; 8 &amp;ndash; 19&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;Your priority as a drama minister should be the work of GOD . You must place the work of GOD before any other thing . but today many have been divided . many drama ministers want to be in the music ministry , deliverance ministry and some are thinking to go the seminary to become a pastor . many are presently thinking on how to pack up the ministry because the work of God is affecting where money is coming in for them . so many drama ministry have lost focus because their hearts have been divided , and how can a drama ministry with a divided heart bring down revival to the land , Impossible . except your heart is right with God , revival cannot come in drama ministry .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;4, WRONG MOTIVES Lk 12 ; 15 &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Times New Roman&quot;&gt;The attention of some drama minister are not divided but they have wrong motives .&lt;/font&gt; &
