Building Up Your PJJ-G12 by Pastor TOTO Gustilo

Our "Monthly G12 Mentoring" with Pastor Pie Nola has been a great blessing to all the his national 12 disciples. It has been our storehouse of ministry wisdom which always results to effective action. In this actual session he shared that: "It is hard to put a big head to a small heart but you can put a small heart to a big head." Meaning, the goal of every G12 mentoring is "heart-mentoring." Here are some points shared which will help every mentor develop their G12 disciples.

HOW TO INVEST IN YOUR G12...
  1. Build the team
  2. Gather the best members from your cell group
  3. Pay the price in developing them
  4. Empower them with ministry, responsibility and authority
DEVELOPING G12 EXCELLENCE...
  1. Focus on the vision but be proactive with the current situation
  2. Manage your discouragement
  3. Always move forward
  4. Don't allow the past to control us
  5. Don't be afraid to fail because we are never failures
  6. Maintain flexibility
  7. If something doesn't work prayerfully change it!
TAKE NOTE:
FAITHFULNESS & FRUITFULNESS to the PROCESS!

ETHICS IN LEADING YOUR G12...
  1. Maintain Godly leaders
  2. Control the church/ministry atmosphere
  3. Committed on servanthood not on lordship
  4. Maintain solid trust
  5. Maintain transparency
In developing your leadership self-esteem you are claiming your prince-identity and fighting against your slave-mindset. It will humble you to be a shepherd rather than a ruler. It will really show you who you are!

CONSEQUENCES OF LOW SELF-ESTEEM...
  1. Limits your potential
  2. Destroys your dream
  3. Faces difficulty in establishing a healthy relationship
  4. Causes you to have a more incorrect image with God
  5. SUCCESS = EXCELLENT VIEW OF YOURSELF!
HEALING LOW SELF-ESTEEM...
  1. Have a correct concept of God
  2. Have a correct concept of yourself
  3. Have a correct mind through the Holy Spirit
VISION NOTE...
  • Be patient. The vision will take time to grow.
  • Always revisit the vision
  • Impart the vision to your G12
  • Invest your Time, Talent, and Treasure to all your G12

Why THREE?


“Triad, triplet, triune…”


These are vital numbers in our daily life routine. YES! The number three (3) is important because of its conciseness and compactness. Thus, it’s a good endeavor to know how the Bible values this precious number.


  1. Three days and nights that Jesus will be in the heart of the earth (Matthew 12:40)

  2. Three witnesses' testimony is needed for a valid church discipline (Matthew 18:16)

  3. Three witnesses assures the presence of the Lord (Matthew 18:20)

  4. Three days the Lord will rebuild the Temple (Matthew 26:61)

  5. After Three days the Lord will rise from death (Matthew 27:63)

  6. After Peter’s pentecostal message Three thousand accepted it (Acts 2:41)

  7. Three days apostle Paul was blind (Acts 9:9)

  8. In a synagogue in Ephesus Paul spoke Three days persuasively about the Kingdom of God (Acts 19:8)

  9. Three times Paul prayed to the Lord to take out his thorn in the flesh (2 Corinthians 12:8)

  10. The testimony of Three witnesses establishes a strong case for a particular church discipline (2 Corinthians 13:1)

  11. Three testifies to the Sonship of Christ (1 John 5:7)

  12. Three angels sounded the trumpet blast communicating that the inhabitants of the earth will be judged

  13. Three of the 12 disciples belong to Jesus’ Inner Circle (Matthew 17:1)

That’s the reason why three is an important PJJ number.

Still Being "Caught by the Vision"


Hi...I'm Pastor TOTO Gustilo, the Senior Pastor of the Faithful Jesus Church, and I would like to guide you to the G12 transition the church has been going through for a year now. God has been so good and patient with us. Everything I will be posting here are the results of my personal mentoring with Pastor Pie Nola (Senior Pastor, Christ's Church in BF Homes), personal research I conducted, and personal dealings I've being experiencing with the LORD.
