If anyone teaches false doctrines & does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ & to godly teaching, he is conceited & understands nothing. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies, & quarrels about words that results in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions, & constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth & who think that godliness is a means to financial gain. (1 Timothy 6:3-5). Paul told Timothy to stay away from those who just wanted to make money from preaching, & from those who strayed from the sound teachings of the Gospel into quarrels that caused strife in the church. A person's understanding of the finer points of theology should not become the basis for lording it over others or for making money. Stay away from people who just want to argue. Love people more than money. Love God's work more than money. The Bible says that you cannot serve both God & money. As for me & my house we have made a choice to serve God with a whole heart & a willing mind & NOT money. What about you? When God blesses us with money, we will give MORE to the people, the churches, ministry work, etc, & remain with very LITTLE for our family upkeep. We strongly believe that God blesses us so that we are a blessing to others; so that we bless others. We have been doing this since 1988 using our little family resources. That is the way we live: serving others through Christ & blessing them. Thank you Jesus. Good morning Holy Spirit. Prayer: Father, Your church has largely become too materialistic. People now love money more than You. I call the church to REPENTANCE in the name of Jesus Christ. I pray for this situation. Holy Spirit, convict in regards to sin, righteousness & judgement. Help us to repent. Deliver us from the love of money. Open our eyes & turn us from darkness to light & from the influence of satan to God. Thank you Father for hearing & answering my prayer. In Jesus mighty name we pray & believe, Amen. Grace & peace be with you.
Business God's Way: During this annual shutdown for most businesses, i urge you to rest, have quality time with the family & connect with God. Go for a holiday with the family if you can afford. After that, spend some quality time with God in a quiet place for an hour or so & seek His guidance. Carry your note pad & write the points down. Read your Bible, do meditation & pray. Present your plans to the Lord for the coming year & let Him approve them in His own time & in His own way. Be calm, quiet & composed, in order to hear that small still voice, gentle whisper from God. Result: The voice of God will give you guidance & direction for the coming year 2023. If things have not been okay with you in business, the Lord will enable you to have peace & joy in the midst of such storms. He will give you a way out. Do not panic no matter what comes your way. Remain focused on the perfomance & growth of your business. Do not murmur or complain...
