A Warning For Men

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Stay with me to the end now because the following may be having a huge LIMITING impact on your ability to grow and increase your WEALTH…

Matthew 5:28 – “But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.”

Jesus did not tell us not to lust after other women just because He didn’t want us to have any fun. He told us this because He wanted the BEST for you and I and because He understood the severe consequences of lust.

What are the consequences?

Well, there are actually quite a few consequences described in the Bible. However, we are only going to concern ourselves in this setting with the one that pertains to MONEY.

Let’s take a look…

Job 31:1 – “I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?”
Job 31:9 – “If mine heart have been deceived by a woman, or if I have laid wait at my neighbour’s door;”
Job 31:11 – “For this is an heinous crime; yea, it is an iniquity to be punished by the judges.”
Job 31:12 – “For it is a fire that consumeth to destruction, and would ROOT OUT ALL MINE INCREASE.”

These scriptures make it clear what we are to refrain from:

Sexual fantasies about some person you aren’t married to
The advances of a whorish woman
Seeking a sexual relationship with someone you aren’t married to

Why? Because the consequences are two-fold:

To do so becomes a mental wildfire that eats away at you until eventually you will start trying to act it out in reality and it completely destroys you, your home, your career, your life, and everything that is important to you.
God’s curses your financial situation and removes your ability to achieve financial increase.

Am I talking to you?

Can you now see why your success has consistently been just out of reach and why you’ve never been able to get ahead?

Here’s the three-part solution…

Part one of the solution can be found in 1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Get on your knees and confess your sin to Jesus Christ and ask Him to forgive you and cleanse you and to give you the power to overcome this sin.

Part two of the solution was in Job 31:1, “I made a covenant with mine eyes”. You must determine in your heart – you must make up your mind – that you are going to control what your physical eyes are going to look at and what your “mental” eyes are going to dwell upon.

Part three of the solution is to continuously quote to yourself Psalms 101:3, “I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes.”

PUT AWAY the pornography.

PUT AWAY the TV and the movies with nudity, sexual themes and sexual innuendos.

I know that in our society, this can be a challenge but you can do it – you MUST do it – if you want your FORTUNE to INCREASE.

Instead, put your focus, your attention, and your attraction upon the companion you are married to and let God bless your LIFEand your FINANCIAL SITUATION.

Bottom line, don’t let your eyes and your imagination take away your fortune and destroy your life and everything that is really important to you. Rather, choose to be a Millionaire For Jesus.

Want To Know?

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Want to know how YOU can have a life full of PEACE?

Want to know the real secret to attracting WEALTH to YOU?

Want to know how YOU can get your FORTUNE?

Want to know how YOU can always have plenty of SPENDING MONEY without affecting your fortune?

Want to know how YOU can have the ultimate PROTECTORlooking out for YOU?

Then pay close attention because YOU are about to DISCOVERthe ANSWERS…

Job 22:21-26 tells us, “Acquaint now thyself with him (God/Jesus), and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart. If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles. Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks. Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver. For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.”

Now, it is CRITICAL that you pay real close attention as we extract the SECRETS from these verses…

“Acquaint now thyself with him” – Here, we are instructed to get to know the Lord, to develop a relationship with Him.

“at peace” – This defines the state of mind of the person who is truly acquainted with the Lord. On the other hand, those who are not acquainted with the Lord crave constant entertainment and recreation or they will go absolutely CRAZY…because they have no real peace.

“good shall come unto thee” – For those who are truly acquainted with the Lord, good comes to them. Notice that itCOMES to them. In contrast, those who are not acquainted with the Lord are chasing and pursuing. Then, for the few who actually “catch” what they are chasing, they then discover that it wasn’t what they really wanted so they take off pursuing something else. And, they can never attain what they really want because what they are looking for comes from God.

“lay up his words in thine heart” – The Bible gives us the ability to acquaint ourselves with the Lord. And, it gives us the information we need to take the ALL IMPORTANT next step…

“If thou return to the Almighty” – Here’s the condition. Here’s what you’ve got to do if you want the promises fulfilled in your life. This is the HINGE POINT upon which every thing you want swings.

“thou shalt be built up” – Who wants God to build them up? I certainly do!

“thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles” – Iniquity is defined as wickedness, sinfulness, and immorality. And here’s why you WANT to put it away from your heart, home, and business (tabernacles). Iniquity takes away. It drains. It steals. It destroys. It results in the opposite of all the good that God wants in YOUR life.

“Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks” – Some of your fortune will be made up of smaller INCOME-PRODUCING ASSETS(dust) but yet they are still very valuable because they minimize your risk. Some of your fortune will be made up of biggerINCOME-PRODUCING ASSETS (stones).

“Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence” – Who wants God to be their protector and defender? I certainly do!

“thou shalt have plenty of silver” – This is the money to pay for expenses, utilities, needs, and enjoyment of life. This is yourSPENDING money and is distinctly separate from yourFORTUNE.

“thy delight in the Almighty” – God’s blessings in your life should cause you to want to get even better acquainted with Him and cause you to want to turn to Him even more.

“lift up thy face unto God” – At the very core of your being, you should want to look up to God with praise and thanksgiving. And, when God sees your praise and thanksgiving, He will bless you even more.

WOW!

Think about what you have just read. I mean really think about it. In fact, go back to the top of this post and reread the whole thing.

It is my opinion that this setting of scripture better describes the kind of life God wants His people to have than any other setting of scripture.

And, as you noticed, this setting of scripture is contained in the book of Job. As you probably know, the entire book is the story of Job going through hardship, heartbreak, sickness and disease, and poverty.

Guess what? You too will find hard and difficult times in your walk with God. BUT, just as it was with Job, they are short-term and temporary situations where God is “trying” you to see if you truly love and trust Him above all else.

So, get acquainted with God through His Son Jesus Christ and gain these powerful benefits and blessings – PEACE, WEALTH,PROTECTION – in YOUR life.

Are you acting like a Lobster?

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

“A lobster when left high and dry among the rocks, has not instinct and energy enough to work his way back to the sea, but waits for the sea to come to him. If it does not come, he remains where he is and dies, although the slightest effort would enable him to reach the waves, which are perhaps within a yard of him. The world is full of human lobsters: Men stranded on the rocks of indecision and procrastination, who, instead of putting forth their own energies, are waiting for some grand billow of good fortune to set them afloat.” — Dr. Orrison Swett Marden.

Look at what the Lobster does… it waits.

How many people do you know who are waiting for “luck” to turn on them? Are you one of those people?

Look at the phrase, “the slightest effort would enable him”.

The lobster wouldn’t even have to do anything fantastic, grandiose, marvelous, or spectacular. It just needs to put forth a “slight” effort.

Are you putting forth even a slight effort to become a Millionaire For Jesus?

Spend some time really thinking about and meditating upon this quote. Let it really register in the very core of your being. Let God talk to your heart.

Here’s Another Set Of Thinking Patterns, Which One Is Yours?

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Are you clutching to the job you currently have?

Do you feel that today’s economic system is just too shaky?

Are you afraid to step out in faith and start offering your KEABA (see previous posts) to the marketplace?

Do you feel that the future is too uncertain for you to do something as risky as starting your own business?

My friend, if this is how you think, feel, and believe, you are in a DANGEROUS place.

Why?

Because for you to be thinking, feeling, and believing this way means that you are trusting in this world, you are trusting in man, you are trusting in anything and everything except God.

Jeremiah 17:5 tells us, “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.”

Do you see yourself in this scripture? I sincerely hope not.

But here’s where it gets good…

In Psalms 37:17,19, we see how the Christian – the Millionaire For Jesus – should be thinking: “The Lord upholdeth the righteous…They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.”

Wow! Isn’t that a wonderful verse?

Think about the Lord holding you, keeping you, guiding you, protecting you.

Think about you rejoicing, prospering, succeeding during hard times and evil times.

Think about having plenty as you walk with God while those trusting in man and this world are in a famine.

Do you see that just because the people of this world are going through hard times doesn’t mean that you have to go through hard times?

Now, I’m not saying that Christians (Millionaires For Jesus) will never face difficulties or unpleasant circumstances. But I am saying that when you are trusting in God, you are no longer at the mercy of this world, its people, or its systems.

When you are trusting in God, you are connected to God Almighty who CANNOT fail. Anything that you face, you KNOW that God will bring you through it and when its done, you are going to be in a better position than you were before the unpleasant situation arose.

As I heard one person say about the story of Job in the Bible, “God gave him DOUBLE for his TROUBLE”.

So now, step back and ask yourself, “Do you think God has any concern or worry over the current economic situation?”

The answer is obviously, “Absolutely NOT!”

And you shouldn’t either.

Which one of these thinking patterns is yours?

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

If you watched, read, or listened to the news today, what did you hear?

If you are like most people, it was just NOISE. Occasionally, something in the news is remarkable enough that people will comment about it or express an opinion about it to their co-workers, friends, or family. And usually, their comments and opinions are negative and/or judgmental. And then they go on with their lives the same as before.

If you heard co-workers, customers, friends, family, or any person for that matter complain or gripe about something today, what did you do?

If you are like most people, you just say, that’s old so-and-so blowing off steam. Maybe, you even agreed with them and added a little more griping and complaining to the mix. But then, you went on about your business – the same as before.

Millionaires For Jesus on the other hand, think quite differently.

Every bit of information or stimuli that comes into their life, they are thinking about it in terms of their KEABA (see previous posts) and how they might capitalize on the information or stimuli.

They take all of the negativity of information or stimuli and try to figure out how they can turn it into a positive, fruitful, profitable, situation or scenario.

Consider this verse in 2 Corinthians 9:11: “Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.”

Interesting verse isn’t it?

Obviously, God wants us to be ENRICHED in everything that comes across our path. And, the result He is looking for out of your life and mine is BOUNTIFULNESS.

Why does He want this?

Once again (just as we have seen many times already in previous posts) God wants His name glorified and His Kingdom expanded.

So going back to our first question… if you watched, read, or listened to the news today, were you thinking ENRICHMENT and BOUNTIFULNESS?

Or was you thinking something else?

When you heard that person griping and complaining, were you thinking about how you could find or create a solution that was ENRICHING and BOUNTIFUL?

Or were you thinking something else?

Something to think about, isn’t it?

Have You Made The Decision Yet?

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Have you decided to become a Millionaire for Jesus yet?

I didn’t ask if you’ve figured out HOW to become a Millionaire for Jesus yet.

Have you made the decision that you are going to become a Millionaire for Jesus?

You must make a decision on WHAT you want to be in life. Then, you must make sure you have real, legitimate, and important reasons WHY you want to be WHAT you want to be.

Once you resolutely make the WHAT decision for the WHY reasons, the wonderful mind that God has given you will go to work for you figuring out the HOW.

By the way, it is important to understand that the HOW will never come to you without you first making a decision about the WHAT that is backed up by a meaningful and important WHY.

For me, my WHAT is that I am a Multi-Millionaire for Jesus. My WHY is so that I can be a part of building up God’s Kingdom, abounding unto every good work.

What is your WHAT and WHY?

In some cases, people try to be WHAT “others” want them to be – but that won’t work.

What is it that you feel down in your heart-of-hearts that God wants you to be? It’s down in there. You may already know what it is when you get honest with yourself. Or, it may be so pushed down and pushed aside that you can’t see it right now. If that’s the case with you, go to the Lord in prayer. All you have to do is ask Him and He will reveal it to you.

Many people never take that first step of deciding WHAT they want to be and so by default they become “nothing” as they go through the motions of life.

But, that’s not you… is it?

Where Are They Going?

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Let’s imagine for a moment that you and your family decide that you are going to take a little 4-day weekend get-away trip. Further, let’s imagine that you are already a Millionaire For Jesus and so money is not a problem.

What is the first thing that you and your family would start thinking about?

If you are like most people, you would start by asking yourselves “where do we want to go?”

Now, let’s imagine that as you and your family are trying to decide where you want to go, some salesperson barges in and starts trying to sell you a car by telling you all about the wheels, the engine, the interior, the dimensions, the specifications, etc.

Do you care about a car at this point? Of course not! And, you sure don’t care about all of the details of this car.

You don’t care because you are trying to figure out and decide where you are going for your weekend get-away – not how you are going to get there. And in fact, even when you do start thinking about how you are going to get there, the details about the car (or whatever form of transportation you choose to use) really does not matter to you.

The fact is, you are focused on where you are going and the enjoyment you are going to experience when you get there.

Guess what. Those people to whom you want to sell your KEABA are going somewhere. And, they are focused on what it’s going to be like when they get there. They are not focused on the details of the vehicle that is going to take them there.

Now, this fabricated example may seem a bit absurd but it is exactly what so many salespeople do day in and day out. They barge into their marketplace touting all of their details and specifications and they never even think about where it is that their marketplace is really trying to get to. And they wonder why doors get slammed in their face and why they have such a hard time selling.

You want to take a different approach – a much easier approach. When you go to offer your KEABA to your marketplace, start by asking them questions about where they are going and what they are looking for when they get there. Then, you will be able to position your KEABA in terms that relate to them and that are important to them.

Can you see how your sales success will be much higher?

But let’s not forget about the SRS Formula we talked about in the previous post.

Here’s a question for you… Would one weekend get-away be enough to last you for the rest of your life?

If you are like most people, the answer is emphatically NO!

Is it possible that even as our imaginary family was planning their weekend get-away that we could together start sketching some rough plans for the next get-away? Of course it is.

So, all the while you are talking with your marketplace about where they are going, you should also be planting the seeds of them using you to help them get to where they are going after they get to where they are going right now.

On an ongoing basis, your marketplace is going somewhere. Use your KEABA to help them get there – again and again!

The SRS Formula…

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

In order for you to be a Millionaire For Jesus, you must be able to repeat your success over and over.

You must be able to conduct business transactions over and over where you earn a profit from each transaction. You need income coming in to you that you can repeat over and over – and that you can easily repeat.

To be a Millionaire For Jesus, you must be “worth” a million dollars because of the value that you provide to others through your products and services that you repeatedly sell on a sustainable basis.

This is a very different model from trying to be “worth” a million dollars by providing value as an employee in someone else’s business. Hopefully I made it clear in the last post that trying to get to big money as an “employee” isn’t sustainable or repeatable.

On the other hand, a Millionaire For Jesus is someone whose business and net worth is based on Sustainable and Repeatable Sales (SRS).

So, start thinking about how you are going to sell your KEABA (defined in previous posts) to others in a sustainable and repeatable pattern. Then, put the SRS Formula to work for you so that you can go to work for Jesus.

Don’t Have Your Livelihood Depending Upon A Job

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Let’s pretend for just a moment that you are one of the few “lucky” people who are in a good, high-paying job. Consider these real examples …

You are a man who has fully paid medical and dental benefits, 3 weeks paid vacation every year plus an additional 1 week of paid personal time off plus many other benefits. Your work is easy. In fact, on a hard day, you might work the equivalent of 5 hours and most days you work far less – even though you are paid for a full 8 hours. For all of this, you are paid $45 per hour which is almost $94,000 a year. What do you do in this “cushy” job? You drive a fork-lift in a unionized automotive plant.

Sound like the kind of job you would like to have?

In another company, things are really “humming’! Business is good, employees are performing, and customers are happy. Business is so good in fact that every executive on the executive team has had their base salary automatically increased to $1,000,000 per year. In addition, every employee has had their salary increased to 25% – 50% over the current market rate.

Think you would like to be in a situation like this?

There is only one problem with these “ideal” situations. They aren’t sustainable nor are they repeatable.

In the case of the fork-lift driver, he worked at this job for several years – long enough for him and his family to expand (and over-extend) their lifestyle to $94,000+ per year – and then the automotive plant had a mass layoff.

10 years later, this man and his family are still trying to recover from financial ruin.

In the case of the “humming” company, everything went fine for a few years until some things happened that were outside of the control of this company and its employees and in a matter of a few months this company went from “high on the hog” to shut down.

6+ years later, these people are still trying to recover from the disaster of losing their high-paying jobs.

Again, the “perfect” job is nearly impossible to find and when you do find one, they usually don’t last very long.

Think about it. Who else is going to pay you almost $94,000 a year to drive a fork-lift? Who else is going to pay you 25% – 50% above market rate for your job?

But what if you are in an average business getting paid average wages?

Take a hard look at yourself and those around you. Are you and those around you really performing? Are you really adding value? Are you really contributing to the profits of the company?

If you are an average employee in an average company, the truth is that you and those around you are performing at about ½ to ¾ of your potential. This means that you and those around you are over-paid.

And, when you see a business that is full of under-performing and over-paid employees, you are seeing a business that is going to “pay the piper” sooner or later. It’s not a question of “if” it’s a question of “when”.

God isn’t interested in you being in a model where your livelihood is at risk and in jeopardy. As a Christian, you need to be in a different business model. That’s our next discussion…

Here’s the kind of seller you want to be…

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Think about all of the “sellers” that you encounter over the course of a week – whether in your place of business, in other people’s businesses, on the radio or TV, or wherever it is that you encounter them.

Are they really trying to help you?

Or, are they trying to convince you and others to buy their next “knick-knack” or “gadget” that has fleeting usefulness and value?

This is not the kind of seller you want to be. Here’s the kind of seller you want to be:

Romans 12:10 – “Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love.” With a heart full of care, sell as if you were selling to your brother. As a Christian, you obviously wouldn’t sell anything to your brother that didn’t have lasting value and usefulness.
Romans 13:10 – “Love worketh no ill to his neighbour.” Never sell anything from which you would gain but your customer would not.
1 Peter 1:22 – “See that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently.” We are to love God, ourselves, and others. When we do, then we are only interested in true win-win situations – situations where you, your customer and God’s Kingdom are benefited on a long-term basis. When you sell in this kind of a model, your success is sure to come.
1 John 3:18 – “Let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.” You aren’t looking to “slick-talk” customers into doing business with you. You are looking to demonstrate that you care about them and that you are able to offer them something of lasting usefulness and value.
Mark 10:21 – “Then Jesus beholding him loved him.” In Mark 10, we see the story of Jesus trying to “sell” a rich man on becoming a Millionaire For Jesus instead of a millionaire for himself. As Jesus goes to “close” the sale, He looks upon his “customer” and He “loved him”. When you are selling, make sure that you love your customers and your sincerity will come shining through.

A Millionaire For Jesus is a SELLER who LOVES and HELPS people.

Here’s How To Make Sure Your Business Wins…

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Was God competing with some other entity when He created the Heavens and the Earth?

Of course not! If anything, He was “competing with Himself”. We see this because He looked at it and saw that “it was very good” (Genesis 1:31).

In the same vein, if you are to become Millionaires For Jesus, you must move away from “competing with others” (like the world does) and you must start focusing on “competing with yourself”.

What does this mean?

It means that as you bring your KEABA (see previous posts) to the market place:

You aren’t worrying about the competition
You are really focused on a deep understanding of the What, Why, When, Where, and How of people who are interested in your KEABA
You are focused on how you can provide more and better products and services to those who are interested in your KEABA – the kinds of products and services that makes things better for them in their world
You are focused on how you can make it easier, better, faster, cheaper, etc. for those who are interested in your KEABA to do business with you
You go back to the top of this list and start all over striving to become even better than before

You see, when you are worrying about the competition and you are competing with the competition, you move into a world where everyone is playing “copy-cat”. You move into a world where everyone is playing “leap-frog”. You are in a competitive world.

In the competitive world, this week, month, or year someone else is the best. So, you go copy everything they are doing plus a little more and you “leap-frog” them for this week, month, or year. Then, they copy what you’ve done and add a little more, and they “leap-frog” you.

This week, month, or year, you have more of the customers. Next week, month, or year, they have more of the customers. And, the cycle continues.

Obviously, you can never really win in this kind of a model.

And, there’s another key problem with the competitive model – you are primarily focused on what your “competition” is doing.

But, when you DO the things listed in the bulleted list above, you step out of the world of “competing” and into the world of “creating”. This is important because when you start “creating”, you are able to create your own “game” with your own “rules” – all designed so that you and those who are interested in your KEABA win.

In the “creative” model, your focus is entirely upon those who are interested in your KEABA – and that’s where it should be. In this “creative” model, no one will ever be able to touch you – because this is “your” game and they are in a different game.

Secret Verse #3

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

If you haven’t read them yet, read Secret Verse #1 and Secret Verse #2

We find the third secret verse to becoming a Millionaire For Jesus in Proverbs 11:26, “Blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth.”

If you are going to become a Millionaire For Jesus, you must become a SELLER.

Being a seller doesn’t mean that you have to become an unethical, greasy, “slick-Willy”, car-salesman type of seller who is out to cheat and beat everyone he or she can.

Being a seller means bringing your KEABA (see previous posts) to the marketplace and helping those people who are interested in your KEABA in positive and beneficial ways. Being a seller means presenting win-win products and services to other people.

If you are uncomfortable with the word “seller”, you might think of yourself as becoming a purveyor. A purveyor is someone who supplies and furnishes people with provisions (products) and services.

Of the 6,500,000,000+ people in the world today, there are plenty of people who could benefit and profit from you supplying and furnishing them with your KEABA.

So now you need to be thinking about having your own business and what products and services your business is going to be selling.

Secret Verse #2

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

We find the second secret verse to becoming a Millionaire For Jesus in Proverbs 28:19, “He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread.”

The phrase “He that tilleth” lets us know that we have to take action. It tells us that we must create something that has value. It tells us that we should work on something worthwhile. It lets us know that we are to develop something that will produce a “harvest” – something that has a greater result at the end compared to what we put into it at the beginning.

Now, here’s the “secret” word upon which your success hinges… “his”!

Notice that this person isn’t tilling someone else’s land. He’s tilling “his” land.

This person isn’t working in someone else’s business; he’s developing and working his own business.

In Luke 10:7 Jesus tells us, “for the labourer is worthy of his hire”. If you are tilling someone else’s land, if you are working in someone else’s business, you are worthy of your hire and you will have…

“bread” – enough to get you to your next paycheck.

But here’s where things change, when you till your own land, when you work your own business, you will have…

“PLENTY” of bread.

Do you see the difference?

Secret Verse #1

We can find the first secret verse to becoming a Millionaire For Jesus in I Thessalonians 4:10-12, “We beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more; And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing”.

First of all, we see yet another indication that it is God’s will for us to have plenty in the phrases, “increase more and more” and “that ye may have lack of nothing”.

Now, here’s the secret – “to do your own business, and to work with your own hands”.

Did you notice whose business this was? That’s right, “YOUR OWN”! If you are to be in a position where you have lack of nothing, then you’ve got to have your own business.

Now, moving to the word “work”, Webster’s dictionary defines work as physical and mental effort.

If you are going to become a Millionaire For Jesus, then you must be putting your physical and mental effort into your own business!

Also, pay special attention to the word “do” used in this verse. There is no “passive” waiting around described in this verse. Instead, we are being directed to “urgent action”. It’s as if the Apostle Paul is telling us:

“Get to work in your own business so that you can increase more and more and so that you don’t have lack of anything so that you can get busy doing a work for the Lord!”

Here’s another interesting phrase in this verse, “That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without”. Here are some thoughts about this phrase:

If you work for someone else and you are on salary and you come in late, leave early, or have to go take care of some personal business then you are in effect “stealing” from your employer.
Because many people who work for someone else are just barely getting by, there is a “pull” to “take” from their employer since they “have plenty” and “they’ll never even miss it”.
What kind of a testimony is it to the world if a Christian is so poor that he or she is always living right on the edge of dishonesty and desperation?

Start putting some thought into having your own business.

We’ll be talking more about you having your own business as we go forward.

Do You Chase Money Or Does It Come To You?

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

II Corinthians 9:8 says, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work”.

This is a familiar verse to most Christians but yet many people don’t get the full significance of it. So, let’s ask ourselves some questions:

Is there anyone or anything higher ranking than God?
When God is going to “make” something happen, can anyone or anything stop it?
Three times the word “all” is used in this verse…how much do you think God wants you to have?
When something “abounds” is their scarcity or lack?
When something is coming “toward” you, do you have to chase it or try to “catch” it?

We know that God is the Almighty, the Supreme Being, the Highest Authority, the Top Commander and it’s Him that is making and directing goodness for every area of our lives to come to us in abundance.

But there is a catch…

And it’s contained in the phrase “is able”. That let’s us know that there is a condition. This let’s us know that there is a responsibility on both our part and on God’s part. This lets us know that when we do our part, THEN and only THEN is He able to do His part.

So, what’s our part?

The answer can be found in Proverbs 24:4, “By knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.”

This lets us know that when we develop and expand our knowledge (see KEABA in previous posts) then God will make all abundance flow towards us in every area of our lives.

But, He doesn’t just poor abundance upon us for no reason. He pours His abundance upon us for a very specific reason… so that we are in a position to “abound to every good work”.

As a Millionaire For Jesus, can you see yourself abounding unto every good work?

I hope so because James 4:3 makes it clear to us that if we want abundance for the sole purpose of “consuming it upon our own lusts and desires” then God will not give us of His abundance.

God wants to teach you to profit…

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Isaiah 49:18 shows Gods support for our success…

“Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.”

Here are the key points that I see:

The Lord is the one who leads us in the way we should go
The Lord wants us to profit. Profits lead to wealth
The Lord’s path gives us opportunities to use our God-given wealth to promote and expand His Kingdom
If you are going through a difficult situation right now, it is an important part of your future success and profitability
God wants to teach us. Are we willing to learn? Do we devote time to learning?

Do you know what God has pleasure in? Find out here…

Psalms 35:27 gives us this picture of God’s perspective towards us…

“Let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.”

I see three important points in this scripture:

1. You should SAY it continually
2. God is pleased when you are prosperous
3. God should be magnified in your prosperity

The one thing you’ve never been taught that is your Christian duty…

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Stay with me on this one for just a moment…

In Ephesians chapter 4, the apostle Paul teaches us how we are to live as Christians.

He teaches us that we are not to give place to the devil. He teaches us to get rid of bad language. He teaches us to put away bitterness, wrath, anger, clamour, evil speaking and malice.

He teaches us that we are to walk in righteousness and holiness. He teaches us to be kind to one another, tenderhearted, and to forgive one another.

And everyone knows all of this. But, there is one more thing that he teaches in this setting of scripture that most people either don’t see, don’t understand, or just ignore and that is,

“let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.”

This scripture points out three things:

Get to work
Creating good things
So that you have more than you need so that you are able to give to those in need

Can you see that it is God’s will for you to have the financial ability to do a work in His Kingdom?

A Daily Affirmation…

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Psalms 23:1 says “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want”

When are you going to start really believing down deep in your heart of hearts that the Lord is your shepherd?

When you really believe and trust in the Lord, you’ll not lack for any good thing.

You’ll not lack for money
You’ll not lack for health,
You’ll not lack for companionship
You’ll not lack for friendship
You’ll not lack for opportunities
You’ll not lack for respect from others

You’ll not lack for anything that God deems good for you.

Do you find yourself lacking in any of these areas? Then here’s what you need to know…

Psalms 66:12 says, “but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.”

So start affirming to yourself multiple times every day, “Because the Lord is my shepherd, I don’t want for anything and the Lord is bringing me into an even wealthier place.”

Now, I’m not at all suggesting a Christian doesn’t have to go through challenges, difficulties, or tests because they certainly do…and to think otherwise is both foolish and non-Biblical. But, I AM asserting from experience that God ALWAYS intends for his people to PASS THROUGH unpleasant situations, conditions, and circumstances to His blessed, happy, healthy, and wealthy victory and abundant life.

If Your Bank Account Is Empty, Here Is Why…

Friday, 26th / Leave a comment

Genesis 1:2 tells us, “And the earth was without form, and void”.

So, what does your bank account look like? Is it “void”?

What’s your plan to increase your KEABA? Is it “without form”?

Note: if you don’t know what KEABA is, see the end of this post.

People are attracted to value. People want to give their money in exchange for value.

What is value?

Something with a low value is something that isn’t very useful, isn’t very important, isn’t worth much.

Something with a high value is very useful, very important, and worth a lot.

If your KEABA is well developed, then your value to society is going to be high. If it isn’t, then your value to society is going to be very low.

The level to which your KEABA is developed is entirely up to you. You get to decide what your value is to society.

If you are tired of a bank account that is “void” of money, then you need to decide to put “form” to your KEABA development plan.

To learn more about KEABA, go here:
