The General Overseer of Potter’s family Chapel, Prophet Alex Armstrong  has charged young person to actively seek the ma9ntle of their calling.

He made the clarion call during on of the services on Tuesday, December 3, 2024.

Speaking from the Dashen Temple branch in a sermon titled, ‘Walk the Calling,’ based on Ephesians 4:1-3, Prophet  Armstrong emphasised that the calling believers receive fundamentally shapes their lives.

He stated: ‘If there is no calling, there is no life,’ highlighting that this calling is not merely a vocation but an invitation to partake in the privileges of the gospel.

He elaborated that embracing this calling requires a commitment that often restricts personal freedom, leading believers down a narrow path that fosters spiritual growth.

Prophet Armstrong articulated that the life shaped by this calling culminates in a code of conduct, which he described as the fruits of one’s faith. He noted that these fruits are essential for effective ministry and must precede the manifestation of spiritual gifts.

You must first bear the fruits before manifesting the gifts,’ he explained, warning that failure to do so results in a misalignment of spiritual authority.

The General Overseer touched on some of the codes of conduct as complete humility, describing it as a mindset necessary for spiritual elevation; gentleness or meekness, which involves yielding to God’s demands and preserving His will; patience, defining it as developing fortitude and courage amidst adversity; forbearance or endurance, which means supporting others through hardships with love; and unity of spirit, which focuses on maintaining harmony within the body of Christ.

Prophet Armstrong also drew distinctions between church offices and mantles, explaining that while offices represent administrative roles, mantles signify the divine power and authority required to fulfill those roles. He warned that if spiritual codes are compromised, it could result in leaders holding titles without true power.

He further expounded on various church offices: the apostolic office governs with signs and wonders; the prophetic office guides as oracles of God; the evangelistic office gathers and liberates captives; the pastoral office guards and rescues souls; and the teaching office grounds believers and fosters discipleship.

Prophet Alex Armstrong ended by urging participants to embody their callings authentically, saying, ‘If you cannot walk the talk, you cannot talk the walk and so you cannot walk the calling.’
