MFM Daily Devotional Message Thursday, 9th July, 2026.

The New Testament Greek word for Administration is "diakonia" which means service, ministering, etc. It entails putting the right people in the position of effective running of the church or any other human endeavours. Proper administration engenders orderliness, decency, discipline, responsibility, harmony, effectiveness, and productivity. The truth is that right and proper administration in any setting enhances great productivity either in the secular or in spiritual matters.

Apparently, there was proper administration right at the beginning when God placed man in the garden. Man, created in the image of God, was placed at the helm of affairs, exercising dominion and control over every other creature until he fell into sin. A careful look at the operations of the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ in the Gospels implicitly reveals the dynamics of effective administration. For instance, the Master appointed a Group Treasurer in charge of their finances, and assignments were distributed hitch-free.

According to Acts of the Apostles chapter six, in the first century church, the enemy planned to sow the seed of discord among the disciples by introducing the spirit of disaffection, rancour, bickering, and disagreement because the Hellenist group of the church felt marginalised. They complained that the Jewish group was not including their own widows in the daily distribution of provisions. To settle the controversy and restore harmony, the apostles engaged the tool of administration.

It is clear now that administration is crucial in every human endeavour - business, family setting, career and religious setting, as it nullifies every form of disoderliness, acrimony, unhealthy rivalry, irresponsible disposition, sloppiness, disharmony, etc. However, not everyone can be put in charge of administration, especially in the church, as it is a part of the service gifts of the Holy Spirit. This is what Apostle Paul refers to as "government" in 1 Corinthians 12:28 "And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets... after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments..." So, if the Lord has called you into any administrative assignment, ask Him for the grace to excel.
