Jesus said: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ It’s called commitment to God. It’s called going all in for Christ. It’s called taking off our old self and putting on our Godpreneur self. business and Bible lessons, we’re growing in our faith and finances, we’re being held accountable to our calling

We either are too lazy to make a plan, we don’t know how to make a plan because we all didn’t go to Cornell After all, God would fight this battle, right? Planning makes you like inside and out to discover the calling of our lives, our gifts and talents, our ), our family life (relationships, spiritual needs, etc. as a family), our church life and personal calling and so on, we would all receive God’s blessings and favors more because we put in the time to not go

All entrepreneurs have these grand visions of seeing our products and services succeed.   That very same day, after declaring that morning that I wanted to be used by God, 3 POTENTIAL clients called -14 “I know that the LORD has given you the land, that the terror of you has fallen on us, and that all But how do we know that the next 3 phone calls are going to be the ones?   That day I spoke with the 3 clients that confirmed my direction, all 3 of them dropped clues of their

We do this by, first, making it very clear that to have a calling on your life, there must be a ‘caller I tell you this to say that we are all united under one message and one cause: spread our message. Those who believed the gospel were all together and had everything in common. Usually this is called your mission, vision or purpose statements.  All together, these form the key message you’re putting out.

But…you have to be willing to trust in your calling and drop everything else to focus on that ONE THING you were called to do. We must hold firm to what He has called us to in our businesses. Lets all choose today to be Godpreneurs committed to the calling, purpose, and God-ordained direction Questions Are you facing a business battle that calls out your trust?

I have a problem. I have a client that needs a significant amount graphic design work done in his company. I recently changed my business model so that I can focus on launching the service I’m really passionate about (one-on-one strategy sessions with entrepreneurs). I know how to get this clients’ work done with my eyes closed. I’ve done it for years. It’s going to take time, though. It's not easy, but I can make it happen. Here’s my problem: Do I sacrifice spending time on the business I’m passionate about, in exchange for instant gratification of money? I asked my right-hand person and she said that we’re on a mission to focus on ONE THING, and everything else can wait. There’s a danger, as business owners, of grabbing instant business today at the expense of what we’re trying to build for tomorrow. Yes, I can do graphic design. But that will come at the expense of helping another entrepreneur start their business, realize their God potential, and change the world with their gifts and talents. Let’s not sacrifice our GOD’S VISION for instant gratification. #MakingMoreSales #EnhanceFocus

The most frustrating times for me is when I can’t see the vision…when I can’t see the big picture. There’s a haze…something blocking. For years, I was running a business with a veil over my head. I didn’t know it at the time, I just figured that’s how business looks because I hadn’t seen it any other way. When Jesus came, the veil was lifted. (2 Corinthians 13:16). When the entrepreneur begins his relationship with God, and follows Christ, the veil that’s been over his business eyes is lifted, and he begins to see the world clearly. The entrepreneur is now ready to see the vision God has set for his life. #ShareYourTestimony #SharpenLeadership

When there are problems in my business, I’ve learned that playing the blame game is the worst thing you can do. We blame the economy, the employees, the clients, the landlord, etc. Here is what I’ve learned: Trials in business expose our entrepreneurial weaknesses and challenge us to grow… spiritually. Could it be that the purpose of problems in our business is to expose OUR OWN shortcomings? When a problem arises, is the first question out of your mind “what could I have done differently?” If not, then you’re missing out on the lessons that will propel you and your company to heights you couldn’t have imagined….visions that God has for your entrepreneurial life. #GainConfidence #IncreaseEnergy

When I focus on these things and not laser-focused on my entrepreneurial focus, all of this does seem

We’ll work through all the products and services they see, all the markets they could serve, and where I don’t call then stupid!  I just simplify it down to what we can do TODAY.   We’re so focused looking ahead that, if we don’t take the next careful step, we could trip or fall into Here’s a man with a BIG MISSION and VISION: let all the Jews and gentiles know about Jesus.   All such boasting is evil.

All I have to say is don’t be impatient. We shouldn’t move before God leads. It was the vision that gave him the strength to endure the preparation: all the practicing and hard work

That’s how wisdom works. Its time-tested and proven ways of living. Its as good today as it was half a century ago. We have at our fingertips the ability to continue learning amazing wisdom every day. Maybe you didn’t have a dad to pour into you. It could be that your single mom had to raise you and didn’t have a lot of time to instruct you in wise ways.  Maybe you didn’t grow up in a Christian home and the things you learned are getting you nowhere. God provided the book of Proverbs so that you wouldn’t have this problem anymore.  Everything your mom and dad taught you or should have taught you is in there. Godpreneurs, it would be very wise to read a chapter of proverbs everyday. But don’t take my word for it: Proverbs 1:8-9 "My son, listen to your father’s instruction, and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching:   for they will be a garland to grace your head, and chains around your neck." I’m constantly doing devotionals on proverbs because of the wisdom. I have to keep reading proverbs daily because as an entrepreneur I’m constantly sliding back into old habits that don’t suit me anymore. Proverbs 1:32-33 "For the backsliding of the simple will kill them. The careless ease of fools will destroy them.   But whoever listens to me will dwell securely, and will be at ease, without fear of harm.” #GainConfidence #IncreaseEnergy

I love telling stories of how God came through for me miraculously at the last minute in my business. He brought the perfect circumstances for my company to be in the warehouse we’re occupying today, at a rent that only God could have negotiated. In the area of finances, He always provided just enough for my company to stay in business for years because He has great plans for it, and He has patiently waited for me to do some ‘growing up’ in order to bring that to pass. You know why I love these stories of faith? Because I get to tell them to employees, vendors, contractors and my friends.  Believers or nonbelievers, stories of faith are encouraging and give hope. Most importantly, stories of faith in your business keep God front and center at the helm of the ship guiding the path and always in a position of thanksgiving.  Because of God, I’m in this warehouse and still in business, so moving forward any employee or persons working with me are a faithful result of God’s working.

I have a list to review at least once a week of all the crazy things God has come through within my business

I chose a book called Chazown by Craig Groeschel. It all made sense! I had a clear vision for the calling over my business life. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. And if that person calls you with questions, wouldn’t you stop what you’re doing to make sure they are This is called surrender to God and letting Him lead.
