“How many people did Jesus disciple?” was the first question that
came to mind when the Lord revealed the Vision to me. I
immediately recalled the passages of the Bible that speak about
the time Jesus spent with different people. His contact with the
multitudes was sporadic: He was with one group of people one
day, and with a completely different group of people the next.
Jesus spent most of His time with His team of 12, those He had
called Himself. They were the only group with whom He had
continuous contact, and with whom He shared the secrets of the
Kingdom. After reading this, I heard the Lord speak to me clearly:
“If you train up 12 people and manage to reproduce in them the
character of Christ that is already in you,and if each one of them
does the same with another 12, and if they go on to do the same,
you and your church will experience unprecedented growth.” That
was how I received the Vision of the Government of 12 and began
to run with what God had given me. It was the result of a divine
revelation and the answer to a genuine desire to reach people with
the gospel.
