The Ladder of Success

The Ladder of Success is to WIN - CONSOLIDATED - DISCIPLE - SEND

G12 Strategy -Win
“...he who wins souls is wise ” Proverbs 11:30

WIN
We must recognize the urgency of winning people to Christ, as we discover that the Christian life is not a breeze but a battle. We are all engaged in a war to plunder hell and populate heaven.

The 3x3 model of prayer
It begins with a group of three Christians. Each one comes up with three names of their pre-believing friends and/or loved ones to be prayed for.

1st week: An intense time of daily synchronized prayer and fasting for the nine persons which continues for the whole month.

2nd week: Each member begins to make phone contact with the pre-believers.

3rd week: The Christian shares about Jesus and invites the pre-believers to the cell meeting.

4th week: The Christian invites the prebelievers to the celebration service.

G12 Strategy –Consolidate
“...I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit – fruit that will last..”
John 15:16

CONSOLIDATE
Upon the prebeliever ’s decision to accept Jesus as his Lord and Saviour, the consolidator or cell leader should get and verify his particulars, pray for him with genuine concern, win his confidence and arrange for a home visit. At the home visit, it will be good to assess his needs. He is then led to go through the pre-encounter stage.

• Pre--Encounter
The Pre-Encounter consists of four lessons designed to prepare the new believer for the Encounter God Retreat Weekend. The Pre-Encounter is essential for the new believer to receive maximum impact and value at the Encounter Weekend. The four lessons will walk the new believer through the basics of the Christian faith, covering topics such as the new birth, our salvation, the power of Scriptures and the principles of deliverance.

•Encounter with God
The Encounter is done over three days in a retreat setting. The Encounter is the new believer ’s first experience of coming face to face with God and His Word. During the weekend the believer is confronted with his past and is led to deal with all the negative influences in his life. It is also here that the believer receives the fullness of the Holy Spirit.

•Post-Encounter
Fresh from the Encounter, the believer goes through the ten lessons of the Post-Encounter so that he is equipped with the Word of God to deal with the attacks of Satan. The Post-Encounter teaches believers how to relate to the world, friends and problems and how to overcome temptation, the flesh, sin and the devil. The Post-Encounter teaching will produce greater fruitfulness in the disciples and will result in an unprecedented increase in the retention of new believers.

G12 Strategy -Disciple
“...train yourself to be godly.” 1 Timothy 4:7

DISCIPLE
The Three Levels of the School Of Leaders are conducted in the form of lectures and seminars.

•Level One
The lectures in Level One cover doctrines such as salvation, repentance, the word of God and the Holy Spirit. There are different seminars for the Men, Women, and Youth Networks catering to their different needs.
Level One focuses on theology and Christian living.

•Level Two
The lectures in Level Two cover topics such as the G12 vision, cell group and strategies for growth. It also teaches the cell leader how to solve problems and how to choose a leadership team. The seminars are on intercession, evangelism and service. This level focuses on cells and ministry.

•Level Three
The lessons in Level Three are on leadership. They cover topics such as the call to leadership and the cost of leadership, principles of excellence in leadership and types of leadership. The lecturers also cover practical advice for preaching. The seminars are on consolidation, Holy Spirit and counseling. Level Three focuses on establishing and developing the disciple as a leader.


G12 Strategy -Send
“Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Matthew 9:38

How are Leaders Selected?
Leaders and disciple-makers during the transition period will be selected by their mentors. This will cascade down from the Pastor to his Network Pastors, to the Pastors to the Leaders.

What happens to the other Members?
They will remain in the open cell. The main emphasis of the open cell is to evangelise to members ’ pre--believing friends. As the members continue in the open cells and win people to the Lord while undergoing the G12 equipping track, they will eventually become cell leaders and become part of a G12 cell.

SEND
In this part of the G12 strategy, the Christian begins to lead his own open cell, be invited to be part of a G12 cell and works towards developing his G12 cell (made up of leaders whom he will mentor). In G12, we believe the most effective way of multiplication is done through the cells thereby allowing each leader to reach his spiritual potential. The cells fulfils Jesus ’ statement, “For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them ” ((Matt 18:20).

Within the cells, there will be specific purposes to evangelize, edify, form character and form values. A new believer joins the open cell and goes through the stages of Win, Consolidate and Disciple till he is ready to lead his own open cell (Send stage).Once he becomes a cell leader, he is in turn invited to join a G12 cell.
