0820 TURN PASSION INTO PROFIT 1-27-17

Welfare enables poverty. Preaching empowers prosperity!

New terroritory does not change mindsets.

Filter of religioun instead of kingdom! Jesus preached kingdom! Glory of king is in the welath of citizens.

Who ruled the world:

From Joshua to Jesus’ death - Armies ruled

From Rome to Middle Ages - Religion ruled

From Middle Ages to Communism - Politics ruled

From Communism till now - Business rules

2350 verses on money. Twice as much as on faith and prayer combined

15% of everything Jesus taught was on money. More than hell and heaven combined

1/3 of parables dealt with money. 16 out of 38 parables

1 out of every 7 verses in three gospels deals with money

The only subject Jesus spoke less than money was Kingdom of God

God gives power to get wealth (Deut.8:18)

Wealth of the wicked stored up for the righteous (Prov.13:22; Ex.3:21-22)

God has pleasure in prosperity of His servants (Ps.35:27)

When Jesus multiplied the bread, there were 12 baskets left (Mt.14:20)

Jesus came to give life and more abundantly (John 10:10)

In Psalm 23 (the Lord is my Shepherd)

Even Jesus was not poor on earth, His birthday gifts were expensive, He had a house, His ministry had a treasurer, He wore expensive tunic that soldiers did not want to tear apart but gamble on it instead, He rode new donkey into the city. He was buried in rich mans’ tomb. Jesus did become poor on the cross for our spiritual and material provision (2 Corinthians 8:9)

Early church of Jesus was not poor either, they were generous and scripture says “there was none who were lacking” (Acts 4:34)

Wealth is condemned in Bible for 3 reasons:

0. Love for it (money is not evil)

0. Trust in it (rich man can’t enter into heaven)

0. Wrong way of obtaining it

[Don’t use church to promote business, use business to promote Jesus]

⁃ use church members, give them a shot

⁃ please do great job

⁃ power of exposure (Youth Rally, G4T, Kingdom Domain)

[It’s more important to get the word out than to get the cash in]

If you don’t exceed their expectation, you will have to make up a lot on advertisements

Happy constumer is more important than 1k dollars

89% stopped doing business with company because of poor consumer service

Loyal costumers are about 20 percent of total constumer base, but they drive about 80 percent of your business.

88% of constumers now trust online reviewers as much as they trust friends. Unhappy consumers vent without 48 hours online.

[Exposure of your business is more important than profits]

0. Listen to the Holy Spirit

(Example of my conversation in Ukraine)

Fish. Manna. Brook. (you find gold, not just fish)

Connecting to the Source, not resource

0. Develop emotional prosperity

As your soul prosper

Work is assignment. Poverty is curse. Poverty is mindset. Good news not good stuff is cure for poverty!

Mindset of abundance and feeding your mind

0. Learn new skills

Gift will open doors before kings. Skill will make you a king

Music - general - king (David)

Some businesses are in your work place. You will be the king there.

Slave, prisoner and pri-minister (gift to skill) Exceed. Manage people.

When your brook dries up go to the widows house

0. Don’t eat all your profits

Spend. Give. Invest (make money work for you)

Poor personal management

Look rich and be rich!

Preparation meets opportunity

0. Make your business a tool, not an idol

Abraham gave from spoil not income

Don't limit it to supply your needs

Giving is best form of investment

⁃ Internally rich

⁃ Eternally wealthy

⁃ Financially prosperous

0. Manage time well

⁃ One thing we want the most and use the worse

⁃ Lost money can be replaced by industry, lost knowledge by study, lost health by medicine, lost time is gone.

⁃ It’s more valuable than money, you can get more money, never more time

⁃ Not planning. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail

⁃ Don’t prioritize your schedule, schedule your priorities

⁃ Prune social media, tv, wasteful talks, take advantage of your travel, in between, and etc…

⁃ Use task and calendar

⁃ Delegate don’t dump
