The written words in the Bible are a finite wrapper for the infinite Word of God | Word Training

September 19, 2018 04:00 - 10 minutes - 14.4 MB

Human language has only a fraction of the communication power as God's spiritual language. Therefore, God's word cannot be directly represented in a one-to-one representation of human words because our words are limited. His words are spirit and our words are natural. To hear the spirit words behind the human words in the Bible, we must meditate the words in the Bible until our spiritual ears hear God's true revelation. Listen to today's Word Training to learn more about this concept.

Let go of what you think to receive from God | Word Training

September 18, 2018 04:00 - 9 minutes - 12.6 MB

If we desire to receive God's blessings, then we must let go of our preconceived thoughts of how God is going to do it. Our perception of the way God should bring us His blessings is like a spiritual blindfold that binds us to God's unique blueprint on our lives to receive our blessings.

Perfecting your calling requires your time | Faith Chat

September 17, 2018 04:00 - 10 minutes - 13.6 MB

The calling that God has given you requires you to spend time perfecting it. Most days, you will end up spending more time on your calling verse the time spent studying the word. Because of this imbalance, it is tempting to feel bad or condemn yourself. However, you don't need to feel bad about this. We should and need to read and meditate on the Word of God daily, but we need to do it alongside our time spent becoming great at our God-given calling. Listen to today's Faith Chat to explore t...

God's will requires human choices | Word Training

September 12, 2018 04:00 - 12 minutes - 17.2 MB

The will of God doesn't happen without help. It requires our participation and the participation of other people. This is a major revelation we must have so our faith doesn't get thrown into turmoil if something "God said" doesn't happen or is very slow to happen. Listen to today's word training to learn more about this concept.

Tithe in faith not obligation | Faith Chat

September 11, 2018 04:00 - 11 minutes - 14.5 MB

After many years of studying tithing, I have come to the conclusion (based on the Word of God) that tithing is not an obligation to new testament believers, but a choice. It is a choice that must be done in faith rather than out of obligation. If you tithe because you feel obligated, you nullify the blessing of the tithe. If you tithe in faith, then you activate the financial blessing associated with the tithe. Listen to today’s Faith Chat to dig into this concept.

Church is anointed, but not its structure | Faith Chat

September 07, 2018 04:00 - 9 minutes - 12.3 MB

Within the body of Christ, there are serious disagreements among believers about how we should approach the idea of church. Some say you have to go to a local church; others say we have to go to church on Saturdays; and still others say you don't have to go at all. So is there a right way? In today's Faith Chat, I explore the concept that the Bible doesn't give us a blueprint for a church structure, but rather a set of church principles. If we are stuck on debating the structure, we are miss...

Sometimes you have to act on partial faith | Faith Chat

September 03, 2018 04:00 - 11 minutes - 16.3 MB

Full faith is knowing the what, why, and how of the calling God has given you. However, most of us don't have full faith; we have partial faith. Partial faith is knowing what God has called you to do but not being sure why or how to do it. To move from partial faith to full faith, we have to act on the partial faith we currently have. As we take steps (though these steps might not be quite right) in partial faith, we grow to full faith.

Heaven is the safety net of life for believers | Word Training

September 02, 2018 04:00 - 12 minutes - 16.5 MB

As we are engaging our entrepreneurial calling throughout our life, it is unavoidable that we will experience the deaths of loved ones. In those times, a deep sense of loss and depression can rush over us and cause us to stop pursuing our calling. Therefore, it is important and comforting in times of loss to see death from God's perspective. Listen to today's Word Training and discover that because God sees heaven as the safety net of life for believers, the death of a believer may be sad to...

Focus is the secret sauce to success | Word Training

August 30, 2018 04:00 - 9 minutes - 13.5 MB

Lack of talent or anointing is not the reason many believers are unsuccessful in their calling. The real culprit is a lack of focus. Without focus, success is slow at best and nowhere to be found at worst. Listen to today's Word Training to learn more about this concept.

God desires for us to co-create with Him | Faith Chat

August 28, 2018 04:00 - 5 minutes - 5.82 MB

Over the past few weeks, the idea that God desires for us to co-create with Him has been rolling around in my spirit. I noticed from word that instead of following God or being a head of God, He wanted us to be by His side creating with Him. This means there are some decisions in our calling that He wants us to make. Therefore, sometimes when we are not hearing God and He is silent, He is giving us space to make our own decision. As I was preparing to wash dishes, I recorded this Faith Chat ...

Deviating from your calling (even for noble reasons) opens the door for destruction in your life | Word Training

August 24, 2018 04:00 - 9 minutes - 13.8 MB

We must be really careful not to deviate from the calling God has given us because our protection and success lies at the center of His will for our life. When we deviate from our calling, even for noble reasons, we open up the door for destruction in our life.

Own your unique story | Faith Chat

August 23, 2018 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.73 MB

As I was sitting in the carpool line, waiting to pick up my two daughters from school, the Holy Spirit placed this thought in my spirit: "own your story and don't try to fit into someone else's story." You see, God has given each of us a unique calling and a specific way to achieve it, which is our story. If we become envious of another person's story and try to emulate that story, we will crash and burn. Success comes when we own our unique story. Listen to today's Faith Chat to learn more ...

Lack is a storm that's trying to knock you off your game | Faith Chat

August 21, 2018 04:00 - 3 minutes - 4.64 MB

Lack is like a storm that is trying to knock you off your game. What game, you say? The calling God has given you. When lack comes in a like storm, you feel like you are drowning, so you begin thinking of things to do to get out of lack. You consider two or three jobs, side hustles ... anything that can bring in more revenue to get yourself out of lack. But here is the thing; everything you do outside of your calling takes away from that calling and slows down your eventual success (the real...

Enabling non-believers to experience the saving grace of Jesus through your entrepreneurial work | Word Training

August 20, 2018 04:07 - 14 minutes - 20.2 MB

As believers with entrepreneurial callings, we desire to see people discover Jesus through our work. But how does that happen? Some people believe that serving and loving people through our work is enough, and that indirectly they will eventually come to experience Jesus. However, others say that you have to be more bold and direct. Is there a correct way? Well, there is one way for people to be saved, but many ways to warm them up to consider the possibility of accepting Jesus. In tod...

Program your mind to think like God | Word Training

August 16, 2018 04:00 - 11 minutes - 15.2 MB

The results we reap are a direct product of the thoughts we think. Our minds are the engines that drive our success; therefore, we have to intentionally program how we think. If we allow worldly thinking to program our minds, then we will reap success mired with sorrows and pain. If our minds have a mixture of worldly and godly programming, then we will be unsuccessful and frustrated. However, if we program our minds to think like God, then we will have success without the hustle and sorrows.

Accepting defeat is easy | Faith Chat

August 15, 2018 04:00 - 3 minutes - 5.19 MB

Victory in your calling from God requires you to fight a mental battle. In this battle, you will deal with mental pressure to give up because, at various times, things will look like they're not working. The pressure will tell you to quit, and guest what? Accepting defeat is easy. It takes the pressure off you and makes you feel good for the moment. However, don't fall for this temporary release of pressure. When you feel pressure, put pressure on your faith to win instead of accepting defeat.

Disobedience cancels God’s plan for your life | Word Training

August 14, 2018 04:00 - 12 minutes - 15.6 MB

Even if God called us to do it, success is not automatic. If we are disobedient in the implementation steps, then success will stay far from us. We all make mistakes, but disobedience is a choice to go in a different direction than what God has called us to do or a choice to not course-correct when we discover we are wrong. It's critical to keep checking in with God, and when required, quickly change our direction back in line with the will of God. Take a listen to today's word training to d...

Don't limit your calling based on Jesus' calling | Word Training

August 09, 2018 16:23 - 7 minutes - 10.3 MB

God gave Jesus a very specific and powerful calling while He lived on the earth. Jesus' calling sets the tone for all of our callings, but more than likely your calling will look different than Jesus' calling. When you study all the things Jesus did, you can learn from them, but you might not find your exact calling in the things Jesus did on earth. Therefore, don't limit what you are called to do just because you did not see Jesus do it. Take a listen to today's word training to learn more ...

Can a woman be a Pastor | Word Training

August 07, 2018 04:00 - 13 minutes - 18.6 MB

Holy Spirit has given us a very specific definition of an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurs are creators whom God has called to start businesses to make profits, found good-work organizations to serve communities, or launch ministries to equip believers. One of the entrepreneurial ministry callings is that of a pastor. Traditionally, pastors have been male; however, can a woman be a pastor? God calls women in all other aspects of entrepreneurship, but the concept of a female pastor is highly conte...

August 04, 2018 16:38 - 15 minutes - 20.9 MB

Clarity comes by doing | Faith Chat

August 02, 2018 15:08 - 6 minutes - 6.83 MB

If you lack clarity about what God has called you to do, then it is a strong possibility that you need to take a step. You see, clarity from God comes as you do, not as you sit. God has already placed a step in your spirit, and until you take that first step, you will remain in darkness about your calling, because clarity comes by doing. Listen to today's faith chat to learn more about this concept.

Go hard and don't hold back | Word Training

July 30, 2018 04:00 - 7 minutes - 10.2 MB

Yes, wait on God for direction when you are unsure about your path. However, if God has given you direction, go hard and don't hold back on your calling. Too many believers are tiptoeing down the road of their calling because they are afraid of making a mistake, or fearful they are being greedy. This timidness hinders or slows down success and reduces the magnitude of success. Listen to today's word training to learn more about this concept.

Don't charge what you are worth | Faith Chat

July 27, 2018 16:31 - 4 minutes - 4.98 MB

Determining the price of products and services can be especially difficult for people who have a service-based business (for example, coaches, consultants, web developers, lawyers, babysitters, etc.). This price problem is often compounded by pricing experts who teach the concept, "charge what you are worth." This is absolutely the wrong way to go about pricing, because your "worth" is priceless. God paid the blood of Jesus to redeem us from darkness, so we can't place a financial value on...

God's part versus your part | Faith Chat

July 26, 2018 15:07 - 4 minutes - 5.32 MB

Inside of your entrepreneurial calling, there is a part for God to handle and a part for you to handle. If we allow God to do His part, and we focus on our part, then stress-free success is assured. However, if we try to do God's part, success may never come, or if it does come, then it comes with stress, ruined relationships, and heartache. In today's faith chat, learn more about this concept, so you can discover what is God's part versus your part in the calling God has placed in your heart.

One of the main purposes of prayer is to receive instructions | Word Training

July 25, 2018 15:59 - 11 minutes - 15.4 MB

Praying to God has many purposes. One purpose that is often underutilized, however, is receiving instructions. In Jesus' life, when He prayed, He was not really requesting healing for people or asking for financial miracles; He was seeking and receiving instructions. Listen to today's word training and learn more about this important application of prayer, so you can receive the instructions you need for your calling. Also, at the end, a few steps to guide your prayer time have been provided.

God respects the sacrifice of your calling | Faith Chat

July 23, 2018 04:00 - 7 minutes - 8.49 MB

Following God’s calling for your life is a sacrifice. Every minute you devote to your calling is a minute you could be spending doing something else. Something that may seem more lucrative in the moment. Following your calling is what Jesus refers to as picking up your cross and following Him. God respects your sacrifice. Listen to today's faith chat and learn more about this concept.
