What are you getting done? The assignment, project, book, song, screen/play-write, engagement, marriage, business, non-profit, and whatever God has given you passion to do on earth.
You have dreamt about it! You have thought about it! Talked about it! You've picked it up and put it down!
You wonder why you have not reached financial freedom yet....and you are over living from paycheck to paycheck.
The first statement you must know is this: You will not reach financial freedom until your passion that God has given you is in full operation. Do not get me wrong, this is NOT an overnight, microwave popcorn manifestation.
You must put in some work....but you WILL FAIL if you put in more work than prayer! I promise you, if you do more work and very little prayer, your assignment will be common. If you read in the book of Acts 19.11, the Bible says, "Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul."
There are many songs, many plays, many businesses, many books, many spas and hair salons that are common, but there are very few uncommon, fruitful complete projects in operation.
When you pray, God will work unusual miracles by your hands! Uncommon favor will come upon you! The Lord will move unconventionally through you!
Ultimately, your calling does not have anything to do with financial freedom, but Deuteronomy 8.18 says that God has given us the ability to get wealth. The wealth is yours if only you will put your ABILITIES to ACTION! Your abilities or enabling power is powerless if those abilities are not EXERCISED.
It is like exercising your body. Your muscles become sore after the first two work-outs because your muscles are rebelling because they have not been exercised. They have been sleeping. However, when you get those muscles in a daily regiment of exercising they will get on board and cooperate with you.
It is hard to start at the beginning of getting these things done because it is a long list, but you have to start a little at a time. So my recommendations are, and maybe not respectively because PRAYER MUST BE your beginning point. The Bible says, "In the beginning, God said"......you need to seek God to hear Him "SAY" and then it shall manifest or happen for you!!!!!
- Write the vision on paper.....no laptop, phone, or tablet. Use paper!!!! Paper is "old fashion" but there are many distractions on your phone, tablet, laptop, and any other electrical devices. Moreover, when you literally write, your brain will automatically go into its creative-reflective mode whereby you will begin to pour out everything that God has sown inside of you on to paper. (You have to get me to do a workshop if you want more info on this point).
- Dedicate an hour every day for research, comparisons within the industry, budget, facilities, brainstorming, and etc....this idea basically says, contribute an hour per day performing some sort of ACTION to fulfilling God's call on your life. Eventually that hour will turn into an hour-and-a- half, then two hours; then four hours, and then you will find that your passion is your new full time employer! (You have to get me to do a workshop on purpose if you want more info on Passion (Jesus) being your Employer)! Remember, God chose/hired you for the job!
- As my good friend Aunt Nessa said,"Get out of the house and venture out! Do not put all your eggs into one basket! Connect with other people in your industry!" In other words, "NETWORK!" or for the spiritually deep: "Get in covenant with someone!" Sidebar: Your friends, company you keep, and associates, and I am sorry to say it, even your family, must be put on the side if they are not just as productive as you are....This may seem harsh, but Jesus said, "Whoever does the will of My Father is My family" (Matthew 12.50) Jesus also said, "You are My friends if you keep My commandments" (John 15). The apostle Paul said, "evil company corrupts good habits" (1 Cor. 15.33). I am not attempting to be dominating or controlling in my tone, but please read and obey this by the Spirit of the Living God.....If you live in the dead, you do not have life....Anything that is barren, let it remain barren, but it is time for you to produce fruit! (You have to get me to do seminar/workshop if you want more revelation on this point).
- Market yourself! You are your best form of advertisement....this is done by how you carry yourself to work, to the gym, and everywhere else you go, but your character, your integrity, how you dress, and etc. Use the philosophy of this time to your advantage in a "CHRIST-LIKE" Manner! We live in an image driven society with FB, Twitter, Instagram, Vine, and all that good stuff! USE IT! Get crazy hair-dos ladies! As the Bible says, "God formed us in His image" this phrase does not mean our outward appearance or what we look like on the outside, but this means that the illustration or picture of our character can be shown on a board next to God's character and our characters (God and us) will look similar to God's character image. Get your mohawk young man! Hit the gym....get those abs in brother! Sister, work on that "muffin top" because the world is going to look at your outward appearance and the true saints of God are going to look at your spirit and the character of God that manifests in your actions. Sometimes, your look will help you to seal the deal! But wear those jeans and put that make-up on my sister! My brother, pop yo colla! Get that swag going brother with your velvet blazer!!! So I can say, "What is this VELVET?" LOL!!!! Market yourself people of God! Someone is always watching. (If you want a workshop on fashion, the SWAG OF SALVATION, and etc....we can work that out too!)
- PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! (You have to come to my ministry event to receive the instruction on this one...my ministry is called Mt. Zion Bloodwashed Ministries...AKA the Prayer Center. On March 22, 2014 from 9:30a.m.-1:00 p.m. join us for "SYNERGY WITH HEAVEN" 3910 Old Frederick Rd, Baltimore, MD 21229) I am the pastor of the church and I will be spearheading the workshop! Free continental breakfast is served....
Hey, I am praying for you! Not only am I praying for you, but I am cheering for your fruitfulness....
People of God success is not a New Covenant principle. It is in the book of Joshua and in the Old Covenant, but not the New Covenant. Fruitfulness is a New Covenant command and desire of Christ for our lives! Utilize these tips. Talk about these points with your friends, Christian groups, cell groups, your click, or what have you. Email me or write some comments in the comment section of this blog!
You can do this and you are destined for greatness with Jesus Christ in your life!
I pray you are blessed by this blog!!
Get it DONE!
