Administration exists in absolutely every element and area of life. In The School of the Scribe I like to define administration as the “management of processes, protocols and affairs” that establishes, aligns and propels the success of an individual or a corporation in any professional or governmentally aligned arena. An administrator is simply one who oversees those processes at varying levels. It really does help clarify things when we see it this way.
1 Cor 12:28 ESV states, “And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating…“
For the prophetic scribe this passage establishes and releases four indisputable administrative streams identifiable in “tremendous detail” in scripture, history through documentation concerning the lives of God’s chosen people in antiquity, and in life’s design overall.
These four areas include: (1) the administrative writer (life rooted in creating, writing, recording or documenting policy, procedures, protocols, etc.); (2) the administrative offices of finance and commerce; (3) the executive role of the administrator (life rooted in the management or governance of administrative development, regulation and/or establishment); and (4) the supernatural realm of administration (concerned primarily with spiritual protocols, legislation, etc. and is often tied to intercession and prayer).
EACH AREA is important in our efforts to continuously bring order into the Kingdom and in the earth. But all efforts are not equally understood from a distinctly scribal perspective in its WHOLE PLACE. The Scribal Anointing®, meaning an understanding of it, comes to put this in order. In fact, some of the most significant scribal connections in this arena have not been “connected” by most in the church… as this is still an extremely pioneering arena in the first quarter of this century. (It is important to note that there are some scribal gifts that have absolutely NOTHING to do with writing and publishing. A vast majority of those rest in the administrative area.)
It is also important for the ADMINISTRATIVE SCRIBE to recognize that all four areas mentioned above CAN BE PROPHETIC… among those who are “prophetic administrative scribes” …as it is the Spirit of the Lord who directs their steps and oversees the implementation of what is placed in their hands.
One of the “stuck places” we often see in understanding administration is the focus on “legislating” by writing. This is an extremely restricting view of the prophetic administrative scribe’s office and function in The Scribal Anointing®. There is, however, a clear distinction of legislative, judicial and executive releases of this particular anointing… and get this: They exist in ALL FOUR AREAS distinctively.
Even more significant is that there is not a single place or ONE PLACE of influence in heaven or in the earth that these areas (specific to the scribal release) are not activated at the lowest level of systems and processes to the highest level. Take finance for example, it can be as simple as processing the collection of money in a small ministry to running the national treasury. And guess what, FINANCE is in ever system in the earth.
In the library system, for example, it can be as basic as cataloguing research material to developing preservation processes for the nation’s archives. But again, LIBRARY SYSTEMS exist in absolutely every system in society. You see, everyone has need of archiving, documentation, record keeping and even record keeping technologies. Administration literally RULES the world… and all of it is scribal.
There is absolutely no one area or single fit for “this type of ministry” as it runs through absolutely everything.
Scribal ministry is huge…
Scribal ministry is a massive, revelatory 21st century release…. and we pray daily for the awakening of the congregation in understanding its value, recognizing the stewards of it in their varying “dedicated” capacities… and that we expand our view of andvancing the Lord’s Scribal Nation.
