The Key to Prosperity

And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, in the law and in the commandment, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart. So he prospered."  2 Chronicles 31:21

     There is is a way to ensure that you prosper in what you do: serve the Lord with all your heart! Hezekiah king of Judah, lived in dangerous and tumultous time. He faced powerful enemies. Idolatry was the popular religion of the day. His parents had rejected God and encouraged people to worship other gods (2 Chron.28) Hezekiah had the opportunity to reject God as well, yet he chose to serve God will all of his heart. He did everything in his power to promote worship of the true God. He diligently followed God's commandments. As a result of Hezekiah's determination to serve God. God blessed him. Hezekiah thrived in an unsettled time because he resolved to follow God despite popular opinion.

     God will honor the heart that commits to follow Him (2 Chron. 26:5). In times when worshiping God is not vogue and when the forces of the day oppose Him, it takes courage and resolve to seek after God. God is pleased to prosper those who strive to please Him rather than to seek the approval of people. (1 Sam. 2:30). Hezekiah stands in stark contrast to Rehoboam, an earlier king of Judah. It is said of Rehoboam that "he did evil, because he did not prepare his heart to seek the Lord" (2 Chro. 12:14). When you do not set your heart to seek the Lord, calamity is the inevitable result. The surest way to prosper in your endeavors is to diligently pursue the will of God."

Signs of the End Times

BREAK'N ALERT EMERGENCY: JAPAN SAKURAJIMA VOLCANO BLEW!!!!  (Oct. 25, 2014)

Wall St Journal, Oct. 23, 2014 (emphasis added):  One major volcanic eruption could make Japan “extinct,” a study by experts at Kobe University warns… “We should be aware… It wouldn’t be a surprise if such gigantic eruption were to take place at any moment.”

Are Earthquakes and Volcanic Erruptions  Signs Of The End Times?

   Earthquakes are occurring in Tokyo very frequently…strong enough to set high buildings creaking on their girders.  Continual tremors in Tokyo stir a big fear that a destructive earthquake is due.

  This year could be the year of many catastrophes…one may be the Tokyo earthquakes that leaves thousands dead!

   Matthew 24:7 tells us that one sign of the Last Day is “…earthquakes in various place.” More and more reading about disastrous earthquakes occurring killing thousands, making many more thousands homeless.

   What you may not realize is that GOD SPEAKS TO US though earthquakes but we don’t listen! An earthquake generated that Mount St. Helen’s volcanic eruptions!

Look at these verses:

   In Judges 5:4,5…. The Lord spoke to Israel through earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

   In Deuteronomy  33:2…He brought ten thousands of His saints to witness this action.

   In Psalm 68:17…is a reaffirmation of the angels plus His chariots!

   In Daniel 7:9,  10… describes the battle of Armageddon and reveals that the angels who witness this event number into the MILLIONS!

    Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are not simply freaks of nature.  They are warnings from God!  Some 97 years ago, a volcanic eruption in Indonesia killed 37,000 people. But more significant…for a year after the eruption, sunlight, reaching the earth was reduced 13%. The sun will also be darkened at the 4^th Trumpet judgment in the Tribulation Period.

Will You Enter?

"Then Moses raised his arm and struck the rock twice with his staff." Numbers 20:11

Will you fulfill the destiny God has for your life? Perhaps you have never thought about it. God had a perfect plan for Moses to lead the people out of Egypt and into the Promised Land. It's been said the hardest place to score a touchdown is from the goal line. You're almost there. But there is something about crossing over that makes those last few yards the most difficult. Moses failed at the goal line, and it prevented him from finishing well a glorious life of service for God.

The people of Israel were complaining that they did not have water to drink. It was another of many tests for Israel. Moses inquired of God and God said, "...Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will pour out its water" (Num. 20:8a). Moses, in his frustration and anger with the people, began to act on his own and made a strategic mistake. Instead of speaking to the rock, he struck the rock twice with his staff. In spite of his disobedience, the rock poured forth water.

God was calling Moses to a different dimension. Moses was to use his words to speak the miracle. However, he not only lost his temper, but he also took credit and dishonored God. He used his staff, the symbol of his work life as a shepherd, to force the provision.

When we become callous, we can use our skills and abilities to force what we believe should happen. We take control. When we do this, we are in danger of failing to enter the Promised Land of blessing from God. Living in life's spiritual dimension requires patience and obedience. Beware of solving problems in your own strength. God wants to bring you into the Promised Land of His blessing. But it will require walking in the spiritual dimension.-Os Hillman

The Spiritual Realm

"So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind. 1 Corinthians 14:15

How real is the spiritual realm? My lawyer friend from Nigeria tells a personal story of how he was preparing for an important case. He knew that he must be prepared to argue five separate points. He was to appear before his country's supreme court, so it was a very important case.

As he neared the time in which he was to go to court, he began to pray about how he was to argue the case. He spent much time in legal preparation and intercessory prayer. As he went to court, the Spirit spoke to him and said, "Do not argue point one, point two, point three, or point four. Only argue point five." Imagine my friend's struggle of faith. If he were reading this wrong, the shame and professional fallout would be devastating.

The time had come to present the case before the judge when my friend said, "Judge, I wish to withdraw points one through four. I wish to argue only point five." The opposing counsel stood up and objected. "Your honor, he cannot do that!" "Objection overruled, counsel," said the judge.

My friend went on to present his case around point five only, and then sat down. When the opposing counsel stood to present his case, he stood speechless for 12 minutes. He could not get a word out of his mouth. He finally mumbled a few words and complained to the judge that he was going to have to yield. It seems that the opposing counsel had prepared to argue only points one through four, but failed to prepare for point five. The judge ruled in favor of my friend.

The unseen Lord wants to help us in the physical realm of our work life. We must acknowledge His presence and tap into this incredible resource He has given to each of us. Seek Him today and ask Him to reveal His perfect plan for you this day. -Os Hillman

The Way of God

"If My people would but listen to Me.... Psalm 81:13

God has a specific training ground for leaders. There are three patterns of preparation that have been common among most of God's leaders. First, there is a time when the leader is separated from his old life. Consider Moses, Joseph, Abraham, and Paul. In order for God to mold and shape them into His nature, it appears that He had to remove them from the life of comfort. A teacher once said, "You cannot go with God and remain where you are."

Next, there is usually a time of solitude. God often brings leaders into a time of solitude in order to speak to them without other distractions. Hosea 2:14b says, "I will lead her into the desert and speak tenderly to her." Paul was sent to Arabia for two years for a time of solitude. Joseph spent years in the solitude of prison. Moses spent 40 years in the desert herding sheep.

The third characteristic of God's preparation for leaders is discomfort. The setting in which the preparation takes place usually is not a place of comfort. Abraham traveled through the difficult deserts. David lived in caves fleeing Saul. Paul was frequently persecuted.

Are you ready for the classroom of leadership preparation? If God chooses to bring you into this class, you may have one of three reactions to the events. First, you may say, "I don't need it." Perhaps you know intellectually that you do need this, but God wants you to know it in your heart. Pride prevents us from entering this classroom. The second reaction may be, "I'm tired of it." You decide you've had enough. If so, this will disqualify you from leadership. Finally, God's desired response from us in this preparation is, "I accept it." To accept it with joy is the place of maturity in Christ. God often keeps us in these places until we come to accept and agree that Jesus is enough. Is He all you need?

Like the people of Israel, I think we have something to do with the timetable of our education. "If My people would but listen to Me, if Israel would follow My ways, how quickly would I subdue their enemies and turn My hand against their foes!" (Ps. 81:13-14)

Are you ready for the process required for being a godly leader? Ask for His grace to willingly embrace these times of preparation.- Os Hillman

God is Able

God is able to create something out of nothing.

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
                                                                        Genesis 1:1

If He can do it once, He can do it over and over again. He can do it for you.

God is rich and will never run out of resources.

"The silver is mine and the gold is mine." declares the Lord Almighty."  Haggai 2:8

We must no be afraid that we will run out of resources. God's resources are infinite and never ending.

God has more than enough for everyone. We should reprogram the poverty mindset into an abundance mindset. We should not be envious when we see other people succeeding and moving ahead in life. But instead we should rejoice for we know our time will also come when we are ready.

We should not be angry when our competition is making more money and winning all the awards in the company for God has more than enough for everyone.

We should not be afraid of running out of customers and clients, God has created more than enough for everyone to share and enjoy.

If we really declare that God is our source and we have an infinite source, we should be secured and at peace that everything will be fine. We should not be worry about our future.

"Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?"  Matthew 6:25-25
