The fear Of The Lord

The fear of the Lord is an attribute of the Holy Spirit. It's the part of the spirit that reveals the understanding of God's magnificent power and glory. Without this piece, you miss knowing God. You can know about him, but you can't know him. When you accept Jesus in your heart, you're getting the Holy Spirit. As part of the Holy Spirit, you're getting the fear of the Lord.

The bible says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. In this episode, I will be teaching you the fear of the Lord.

What pleases God? This is a million-dollar question for some of us. Some people believe they know how they can please God, others are unsure, and most have not taken time to think about it. In this episode, I will be sharing the one component that pleases God.

According to Hebrews 11:6, you cannot please God without faith. If you want to please God and unlock the dreams that God has for you, you need to cultivate your faith. You need to go to the next level of your faith. If you want to know if your actions or thoughts are pleasing to God, ask yourself: Is faith present? Is faith part of my thoughts? Is faith a part of my actions? Is faith a part of my answer? Is faith a part of my solution?

Listen in and learn how you can please God.

Are you a servant?

Do you ever sit down and look back all the people who have been generous to you? Those people hold a special place in your heart, right? Do you ever go out of your way to be generous to strangers,… or do you only do it for your loved ones? 

What goes on in your mind when you see someone begging for money?
Imagine you are going through a financial crisis and you are positive that if God doesn't intervene, you will go under. You will lose your business, car, home, and other things that you value. One day, as you are at the fuel station, someone begs you give them money for food. You have a $5 bill in your wallet, a $10 bill, and a $20 bill. 
Which one do you give considering you are going through a financial crisis? 

Sometimes when we pray for something, God sends us tests to see if we are ready to receive His blessings. It is said, "The true character of a man is revealed when in a crisis." You may find that God delays answering the prayer until you learn the lesson. When you pass the test, God works on your request in ways that you can hardly comprehend. You find things working out for your good.

Are you Creating Kingdom Legacy?

What would you like to leave for the next generations? Will it be money, land, a family business, or even a honorable family name? The Bible says a good person leaves an inheritance to their children's children.

The inheritance includes money, assets, property, and also your way of thinking. “Thinking” includes how and what you believe, what you believe about God, what you believe about eternity, and what you believe about how God's kingdom operates. It includes how you love, how you show honor, how you treat people, and how you help others.

Legacy is a continuation of you.

Do you remember the story of King Solomon? God appeared to him in a dream and asked him what he wanted. King Solomon asked for wisdom. Not only did God make him the wisest man, but also the wealthiest man,…and that's what he passed down his generations.

If you haven't had a good legacy passed down to you, it's your time to start building that legacy right now. By Design. Don't you want your kids to have every advantage in life thing possibly have, and every advantage spiritually that you can give them? Be intentional about your legacy.

So here’s the truth,...You ARE creating a legacy!

Either by design, or default.
By design: you're passing on the best of you.
By default: you're passing down whatever is remembered about you. 
"Whatever is remembered" about you may be the worst part of you!

"God's expectations are that every generation learned from the last and became better and more fruitful and achieve more and more."

"Legacy is the continuation of you."

Have you ever heard the term "alignment before assignment"?

It’s a great phrase, but what does it really mean?
Are your alignments really that important?

Here’s the big question for today:
Are your wrong alignments keeping you from what God has in store for you or your assignment?

Would you like to understand more about alignments? Listen in to this episode.

I have been a serial entrepreneur my whole life. Like most entrepreneurs, I've made it and lost it several times. Before I understood the power of alignments, I would tell you why every business succeeded or failed based on strategies applied (being undercapitalized) among other things. After understanding the right alignments' power, I see their success and failures through a whole different filter. As I reflect on each business that I've had over the years, I will tell you that it was all due to the right or wrong alignments.

"No matter how big your dream is for your life, God's dream is bigger! You're not going to get there if you're surrounded by the wrong people."

"Don't be surprised when God is removing people from your life."

Bible Verses Mentioned in the Episode:

Jeremiah 29:11

How You Can Grow Your Faith

Are you dealing with whatever is happening to you right now in a way that demonstrates faith? Have you found yourself in a situation where you only go to God when you have tried doing things by yourself and failed? 

The Bible says that we cannot please God without faith - faith is the currency of heaven. Faith is knowing that no matter how small an issue is, God can handle it. We need to unlearn the habit of running to God only when going through difficult things.

We need to learn to go to God with thanksgiving. It pleases God when we thank Him for all He has done for us. 

Do you remember the story of the Canaanite woman? Jesus called her, "dear woman of faith". Listen in as I share the story of the Canaanite woman and dig deeper into faith to show you how you can grow your faith.

"You can't have faith in something and then speak against it. Your words have power."

"True Faith is not believing just in yourself or your ability to perform, but believing God will give you what you need for any and every situation -no matter how big or overwhelming."

"It takes faith to believe God will actually do what He said."

"When your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you praise, glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world."

"Faith is defined as the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen."
