Denomination: Apostolic Church
Revival Ministries Australia is an international apostolic team ministry dedicated to equipping (perfecting) the saints to function fully and freely in the body of Christ. This is achieved by doing the works of the ministry as ministers of the five-fold ascension gift (apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, teacher) given by Jesus to the church. These ministries need to work with the saints, building up the body of Christ until the whole church comes to maturity. (Ephesians 4:12-16)
We are committed to the full restoration of the church and we are experiencing this happening through the restoration of the apostolic ministry.
Apostles have a key role to play in recognising, training and releasing other ministries and gifts to function in the body of Christ. This is happening through apostolic schools, committed discipleship and specific training.
The first church devoted themselves to 'the apostles doctrine' (Acts 2:42) and the result was that when persecution came in Jerusalem 'those who were scattered went everywhere preaching the word' Acts 8:4.
Revival Ministries Australia is a group of people who have been called to follow Jesus Christ. The people involved in this Christian ministry are from various backgrounds, with various levels of education but who share a strong commitment to Jesus and who wish to share about Jesus Christ with all Australians and in all the nations to which we are sent.
We are a people who know the Lord from experience, who have experienced His help in our lives and who have witnessed the power of the Lord touching many lives and in some cases bringing miraculous healings to people.
In late 1997, the Lord gave us a commission to establish Revival Ministries Australia . Initially we saw our ministry was to encourage revival in Australia, and in the overseas countries He sent us to, through a return to committed prayer and to the word of God as it is written. For the first five years of the ministry, that is, until the end of 2002, we were in training and were very much 'an underground ministry'. We were not well known. From 2003 onwards, the ministry has been blessed by the Lord to raise many sons into apostolic ministry in a number of nations. By the end of 2002 we were clear about the ministry of the apostle and the function and focus of our ministry had totally changed.
An integral part of the commission is to train and equip the saints for ministry, and we have established regular training schools; we have written many teaching manuals; two books have been written; CDs and DVDs of the teaching schools and other training sessions are produced and circulated internationally.
Revival Ministries Australia has a training centre in the city of Toowoomba , known as SHILOH Centre.
