Each of us have assignments given by God. As long as we continue in that which God has set for us to do, peace and calm continues. But if we are drawn off our job, then comes disruption.
Do you know your assignment? Do you know what God has set you here to do?
Pam Padgett has been given a spiritual gift of helps.
I Cor. 14:27-28 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
28 And God hath set some in the church (to care for the church), first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

Pam has an assignment from God to work in the church "helping" the church.
I have two ministry offices ordained by Jesus from heaven: apostle & prophet (Eph. 4:11)
I deal with church doctrine as an apostle, things like divorce/remarriage, doctrines of elders as shown by scriptures, doctrines of Bible concerning homosexuals/lesbians and any other question that surfaces today.
Concerning prophets: Hosea 12:13 And by a prophet the LORD brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet was he preserved.
Prophets are used by God to help HIS people to get out of traps and to help them to stay out of traps.
Prophet also prepare the way of the Lord. Today we announce the returning of Jesus and help the church to remain in a position of readiness to be received when Jesus returns.
And I have a spiritual gift of exhortation to be able to urge the church by advice and warning concerning holding fast to the way of God shown in the scripture.
exhortation: to urge earnestly by advice and warning
Heb. 3:12-13 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
Heb. 10:24-25 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
God by HIS Holy Spirit shows us our assignments and teaches us how to do that assignment.
We do not copy other humans but rather we do that shown us by the Holy Spirit of God.
The work we do must be authored by God.
Jesus says: Mt. 7:21-23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
