How to be a "Balanced Priest or In Other Words Balanced Ministry Gift"

Here is a piece about the 3 Main Areas of Balance for a Ministry Gift (Apostle Prophet Evangelist Pastor Teacher)

1. Revelation

2. Authority

3. Mercy

Moses was commanded to cause a robe to be made for Aaron in his ministry before the Lord; and it was said: “Upon the hem of it thou shalt make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them round about; a golden bell and a pomegranate upon the hem of the robe round about. And it shall be upon Aaron to minister; and his sound shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before Jehovah, and when he cometh out, that he die not” (Exodus 28:33–35)

Indigo/Violet/Red Pomegranites?

The Interpretation of that is THIS:Priests are to have insight and knowledge (red), authority (indigo) and be merciful (violet)

The golden candlestick in the tabernacle of the Israelites was ornamented with pomegranates and flowers. Each of the six branches terminated in “three bowls made like unto almonds, a pomegranate and a flower”; and the central shaft in “four bowls made like unto almonds, their pomegranates and their flowers”; and under each pair of branches of the candlestick was a pomegranate (Exodus 25:31–36).

Almond (Authority)- Aaron’s Rod

Pomegranites (Wisdom/Knowledge)

Flower (Mercy)

Aaron's rod—not Moses'! Both rods were alike associated with wondrous exhibitions of the power and grace of God. But when it was a question of priestly pre-eminence the rod, of Aaron was selected "to be laid up before the Lord in the tabernacle of witness". It was by its means that the murmurings of the people were stilled, and the dispute as to priesthood once for all settled. In Christ we have the antitype, not only of Aaron's rod of beauty and fertility, but Moses' rod of power and kingly authority. (Taken from some web site I can't remember which)

This is what the Early Church thought about Ministry Gifts or Priests dealing with the Spirit Realm and Natural Finances:

The Didache, also known as The Teaching of The Twelve Apostles, was written somewhere between approximately 70 A.D. and 100 A.D. This document circulated widely in the Early Church. It gives a number of specific instructions concerning traveling apostles and prophets:

”Now concerning the apostles and prophets, deal with them as follows in accordance with the rule of the gospel. . . Let every apostle who comes to you be welcomed as if he were the Lord. . . if he asks for money, he is a false prophet. But if anyone should say in the spirit, 'Give me money,' or anything else, do not listen to him. But if he tells you to give on behalf of others who are in need, let no one judge him . . . '” (Cited from: “The Apostolic Fathers,” Second Edition. Translated by J.B. Lightfoot and J.R. Harmer. Edited and Revised by Michael W. Holmes. Published August 2000 Baker Publishing House.
