The words ordain/ordained/ordination are used four times in the NKJ translation of the New Testament and none of them have anything to do with bestowing rank or offices on the members of the Church. In fact, in the NKJ, the term "ordination" is never used at all. What "ordained" is used for though is to describe the choice God made for the judgement of the world. Different translations often use different words, but the answer lies in the continuity of the record of scripture rather than in this word or that.

Inspiration

Isaiah 12:1-3 NKJV

And in that day (Israel and Judah) you will say: O Yehovah, I will praise You; Though You were angry with me, your anger is turned away, and You will comfort me.

Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; for YAH, Yehovah is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation.

Therefore, with joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.
