The Holy Spirit has rising a company of apostolic pioneers. It is not an easy task, or a good career field, you don’t go to seek such a career, instead it is calling the Lord seeks you out and gives you this holy commission. –(Matt. 20:16)

It is path of loneliness, rejection, setbacks, and delay and hindrance, victory, breakthroughs, blessings, revival, success, and prosperity, and favor. –(2 Cor. 11:22-33)

The first sign of an apostle is patience; patience is the foundation to character. Apostles are pioneers, trailblazers, forerunners, explorers, forerunners, and pathfinders. These are all works of patience. Apostles carry the works of patience for the many, for the whole, and for generations. –(2 Cor. 12:12)

Apostles lead the way, go before others, and prepare the way along with prophets. Apostles are pioneers and prophets are forerunners; the Lord is rising pioneers and forerunners and joining the together into a pioneer and forerunner team. –(Eph. 2:20)

Pioneers and forerunners are train and rise up by the Lord Himself; most of them have no mentor since their ways are so new that no one believes in them in the beginning. They go against much unbelief; they are called to lay a foundation of a new realm of faith for the church. These same pioneers and forerunners are lead to become fathers and to rise up others. There are those apostles whom the Lord raise up by Himself, this takes years, and then there are apostles who are raise up by other apostolic fathers, which take only a few years. –(Gal. 11-24, 2:1-10)

Apostolic Pioneers are visionary; they are men and women of vision and visionary ideals that see things in a new realm of faith and action. Without vision the church cannot move forth, without visionaries the church cannot move beyond the realm of vision. –(Prov. 29:18)

However, there those who can be mislead and move forth without vision, without sight from the Lord. They are in danger of becoming a vagabond meaning finding no place of rest. An true Pioneer seeks for a place of rest, instead vagabond is a person without vision, without the leading of the Holy Spirit that wanders around finding no place of rest. Apostolic pioneers have a vision of rest and habitation in he Spirit. –(Eph. 2:19-22)

Apostolic pioneers are prisoners of hope; they are full of hope and full of faith. Hope is vision, and faith is vision. The vision of faith is vision of coming to the vision of hope, and vision of hope is the future. –(Heb. 11:1)
