About
About us
We are an apostolic church-The word apostolic means "sent ones" and carries a mentality that God sent us here on an assignment. This means as an apostolic church, each member of Harvest International Embassy is an ambassador of Jesus Christ to all the world, 2 Corinthians 5:19-21.
We are a prophetic church-The Apostle Paul told the Church at Corinth that they were to pursue love and desire spiritual gifts but rather they prophesied, (1 Corinthians 13:1) He further explained that they that he who prophesies edifies the church, v4. The goal of the prophetic ministry at Harvest International Embassy is to edify all those who come into one of our gatherings where they leave knowing God is truly with us, v 25.
We are an evangelistic church-Our Lord Jesus said that the Church was to "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature". Mark 16:15. He also said in Acts 1:8, "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." At Harvest International Embassy, we are committed to spreading the Gospel and gathering the harvest of the nations through evangelistic outreaches. It is also a part of the DNA of the name "Harvest International". We start in our Jerusalem first and are committed to reaching Columbus, Ohio and its surrounding vicinity.
We are a worshipping church- Worshipping God is a vital component to our ministry goal of experiencing the Shekinah Glory of God. This allows us to set a climate for signs, miracles and wonders. At Harvest International Embassy, we encourage everyone in our services to join us in corporate worship of the King of Kings and experience the manifested presence of the Lord. But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” John 4:23-24; And I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “See that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Revelation 19:10
We are a deliverance church-When approached by the Canaanite women about her daughter who was possessed by a demon, Jesus answered her and said "It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs", Matthew 15:26 meaning that deliverance rightfully belong to the child of God. Because of that, we at Harvest International Embassy believes every Christian should be free from all demonic oppression and ministers deliverance and inner healing to all those who are struggling with addictions, ungodly habits and uncontrolled passion with love and compassion understanding the Lord's mercy towards His Children.
We are a healing church-Throughout the scriptures, we see God’s healing power at work in both the Old and New Testaments. This is our example to follow at Harvest International Embassy. We believe that God has provided healing for both our spiritual man and our physical man through the stripes of Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit. Mark 16:18, Revelation 22:2.
We are a presence based church-King David said it best when he prayed to God and said, “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy Holy Spirit from me”, Psalms 51:10-11. David understood that his success was because he had the presence of God with him. Like David, we at Harvest International Embassy understand the importance of having God’s presence in our lives as well as in our services.
We are a signs and wonders church-The early Church carried the revelation that God confirmed His Word with signs following the believers. We at Harvest International Embassy believe God is still confirming His Word today with accompanying signs in the lives of Born Again Believers, Mark 16:20, Hebrews 2:4.
We are a missions church-The word missions is used to describe global evangelistic and discipleship efforts of the church outside of its native nationality. We at Harvest International Embassy support missions by praying for the nations of the earth. As well as sending out teams, resources and finances to assist in those who are advancing the Kingdom of God in the earth. And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. Matthew 28:18-20
We are a giving church-The Apostle Paul exhorts to the Elders of the Church at Ephesus that “It is more blessed to give than to receive”, Acts 20:35. Also, our Lord Jesus said in Luke 6:38, Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. At Harvest International Embassy we look for opportunities to put in practice those scriptures in our lives and believe giving is one of the most efficient ways to release the storehouse of Heaven into the lives of the believer.
We are a Kingdom Minded church-Jesus said in Matthew 24:14 "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come." He also said in Luke 12:31-32 But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you. “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. At Harvest International Embassy, we seek the kingdom, preach kingdom, live kingdom and demonstrate the kingdom before all mankind so the world may come into alignment with the Kingdom of God, Revelation 11:15
We are a church of loving relationships -In John 13:35 Jesus tells us “By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one to another” and in John 15:16-17 He said “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. These things I command you, that you love one another” NKJV. This means that at Harvest International Embassy, we strive to have loving relationships with each other. We attempt to demonstrate the Love of God in every situation we face and not be afraid to tell someone I love you because perfect love cast out fear 1 John 4:18.
We are a praying church-one of our core values is to be a house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations., Isaiah 56:7. This means we at Harvest International Embassy believe in the power of prayer because it is the foundational platform to everything we do and desire to become.
We are a disciple-ing church-The Church is commissioned to go and make disciples of all the nations and to teach them to observe all things that the Lord commanded, Matthew 28:19-20. A disciple is one who is a disciplined student of the Bible who seeks to grow and mature in the things of God. At Harvest International Embassy we provide a wide range of sound biblical studies of God’s Word that will produce spiritual growth in the lives of the believer.
We are an equipping church-Ephesians 4:11-13 says the 5-Fold is to train and equip the Saints so they can do the work of the ministry. At Harvest International Embassy, we are training believers to understand their purpose and that they are ministers and empowering them to go into the world and influence the culture of today’s society.
