Should I be doing this?

Let's study what the scriptures say about tithing
Impromptu Message -This week in Business School and Open Forum, the issue of tithing came up.

Why salvation didn't make you successful

Unlimited prosperity is through the blessing on your hands in business
Business School | Session 1 The spiritual force that brings financial prosperity is the blessing. The blessing is not a reward for good behavior, it is a free gift given to us through Jesus Christ. However, many Christians are not prosperous. Why? Because the blessing for prosperity is activated by the work of our hands. And the location of our hands determine our level of prosperity. If our hands are in other people's businesses, then we have limited our prosperity. If our hands are in the business God has given us, then we can have unlimited prosperity. Links: Join, Partner
How God gets a specific word to you for your life
Daily Word - We talk a lot about following God's directions so that we can succeed in our life and calling. However, how does God get a specific word to us so that we can follow His directions for our life? If we do not understand how this happens, we are not going to hear what He is guiding us to do. Therefore, in today's message, learn how God transmits His instructions to us. Links - Join, Partner
We need to become better receivers

Faith plus action equals success
Daily Word - For faith to work in your life (so you can receive all God's promises), action is required. Having faith in your heart is useless until action is applied. Listen to this message to learn about this concept so you can take the right actions to activate your faith. Links - Join, Partner

How meditating on the written word translates into specific instructions for your life
Daily Word - God gave Joshua some interesting instructions. He told Joshua to meditate on the written word, so Joshua could have good success. But how does meditating on scripture gives us "now" instructions to have success in our calling. Links - Join, Partner
God Jr.
Sunday Message - When a man has a son, he often gives his son his same name, denoted by "Jr." The "Jr." represents that his son will be just like him. In the same way, God gave Jesus His name, "I Am," to let us know that Jesus and God are one. But it does not stop there. Jesus was the firstborn son. Through Jesus, we all are sons and daughters of God, and He has also given us all His name. All believers who received Jesus as their Lord and Savior are God Jr. Links - Join, Partner

Interpreting the voice of God is based on your theology
I have found that God is constantly speaking to all believers. Although He is speaking, the issue is interpreting what He is saying. Interpreting the voice of God is based on your theology. Theology is a fancy word for your beliefs about the nature of God and how He operates. Every believer has a theology, and everybody's theology is incomplete and/or wrong in some areas. Therefore when God speaks to us, our interpretation has a chance of being incomplete or wrong. In this Sunday's message, I examine this concept and provide some practical ways to develop a more correct theology, so we can interpret the voice of God more accurately.

Who are false prophets?
This past Tuesday, I taught our Ministry School students how to identify false prophets. After delivering that message, I felt led to share it with the entire Church for Entrepreneurs community because many Christians are pointing fingers at various ministers and calling them false prophets. However, are they really false? As believers, we all need the ability to determine, from a biblical perspective, who is and who is not a false prophet. Link: Join our online community

Reflection: Success starts and ends with you
Many Christian entrepreneurs are spending a lot of time working on their business. However, as I have been studying the Word, I am finding that God wants us to spend more time working on ourselves vs our business. Because when you develop, then your business will succeed. No the other way around. Listen today's reflection, to explore this concept with me. Link: Join our online community

Reflection: Rest exposes holes in your calling
As we get into this year of rest, I have noticed that resting has exposed holes in my calling that I didn't even know existed. I had to slow down and rest in order to see them. In today's reflections, I am exploring this idea that rest exposes holes in our calling that need to be filled. Link: Join our online community

To win the lost, you must love them
One of the main purposes of believers is to create more believers by winning the lost (aka nonbelievers). However, to win them, loving them is required. Why? Because if we don't love the lost, we are not going to have the motivation to win them or have the right vibe to attract them to Christ. Many of us don't love the lost, but instead we are in a war of words against them. If we are going to be an effective soul winner for God, we have to stop fighting the lost and start loving them. In the online community, let's discuss. What is the Holy Spirit saying to you about loving the lost? How can you guard your heart to stay in love with them? Link: Join our community

Reflection: How do you see yourself?
God has great things for us to achieve. However, if we don't have the correct self-image, then we will be unable to succeed in our calling. In today's reflection, I am examining how a positive self-image is required for success. Link: Join our community

It is dangerous to be mad with each other
I want to talk this Sunday morning about the danger of being mad with each other. For the last four years, believers have been enraged by each other's political views. If we allow our anger to continue, we will destroy each other's vision and be no good for the kingdom. Listen to this message to explore this idea with me and share your thoughts in the comments.

Faith & Business: Characteristics of a God-inspired business
The business that God has placed in your heart should not look and feel like a worldly business. I believe it should have five characteristics that set it apart as a God-inspired business. In this episode of the Faith and Business broadcast, I am discussing those characteristics, which are: (1) Glorifies God in its operation; (2) Brings value to customers; (3) Provides profits for your family; (4) Creates opportunities for others; and (5) Thrives well with your marriage. Watch this month's Faith & Business broadcast to explore this concept. Link: Join our community

Prophecies, Trump, and Possibilities
I am led by Holy Spirit to minister a message for believers who desired for President Trump to win a second term in office. Because the presidency of Donald Trump was surrounded by so many prophecies of him serving two terms, many believers who voted for Trump were very disappointed and confused by the outcome. They have questions like: What does this mean? Is everyone who prophesied Trump's win a false prophet? How did so many ministers get it wrong? Or is something else going on? These unanswered questions for believers who voted for Donald Trump have the potential of weakening your faith in your own ability to hear God speak to you. In this message, I am exploring these questions to give you a framework to process with Holy Spirit the outcome and provide some insight into prophecies from God. Please note: if you are tired of hearing about the election, I get it. It is okay not to listen to this message. This message is for those who are still processing the outcome in light of all the prophecies of President Trump winning again. Link: Join our online community

Reflections: Resting through divisive politics
As the USA holds its inauguration today for its next president, I am reflecting on the divisiveness of the political session we are still in. It feels as though we are in a constant state of manmade fear from both sides, which creates stress nationwide. Given that stress is not going to magically leave, how do we stay in REST through it all? Take a listen and share your thoughts on this. Link: Join our community
Reflections: I'm not doing enough
Since I have entered this year of REST, one thought in the back of my mind keeps coming up: "I'm not doing enough." This thought is a trick of the enemy to get me to add extra stuff to what God has called on me to implement this year. In today's reflections, I am examining this tricky thought. Take a listen and share your insights on this. Link: Join our community
Rest requires us to stop adding to God's instructions
Happy MLK Day! Since today is a holiday we have cancelled our live faith discussion. However, I still have a message that I believe God wants you to hear this week. That message is "rest requires us to stop adding to God's instructions." Because of the hard work, hustle, and grind culture we live in, we add extra things to what God called us to do. It is hard to accept the simple instructions, so we add stuff to it. It is the extra stuff that takes us out of rest. Listen to today's message and share in our online community what are some ways this year you can guard against adding extra to God's instructions for your calling. Link: Join our community
