We must think like “BIG” corporations which I believe is a different mode of thinking from a traditional entrepreneurial mindset. Every “BIG” corporation that I can think of offers a service…. a product.. .. AND a product for rent (a lease or license).

This is where I believe small business owners fail short because they invest a great amount of time in the day to day operations… BUT some do not offer a product for sale, nor do they offer a product for rent (a lease or license).

Here are some questions for you to consider:

– What is your current financial situation?
– How good are you with money?
– Do you want to be rich or wealthy?
– How do you measure being rich?
– How do you measure wealth?
– Do you want to have time to spend with your family?
– Do you have twelve months of savings that would allow you to remain comfortable? If not, what does this figure look like?

The Epitome of Thug Life: Corporate juggernauts assembling together to align their forces in hopes of remaining in our pocket books. The 21st century bully does not corner you in a dark alley threatening to take your lunch money. He wines and dines your soul through the art of manipulation. He befriends you by selling you a dream that in reality is an illusion…TE-LIE-VISION… LEGO ~ YOUR~ EGO

THIS IS GUERRILLA WARFARE!

SHAKE YOURSELF!
AWAKEN TO RIGHTEOUSNESS!

Maybe the lowest degree of thug life happens everyday on our street corners…. BUT where, O’where did this idea come from?

This is a word of truth for someone… Don’t be mad…

SMILE:)

Ok…

When a person purchases a “Boot Leg” movie that person is actually taking money out of the economy (in terms of dollars that are being taxed by the government). There is NO tax paid on a “Boot Leg” movie. This is why selling boot leg movies are considered as a “hustle.” Remember: Fast money is just like fast food, it comes through one end and out the other.

So…

In reality, the “hustler” is stealing revenue that is made from ticket sales, DVD sales, etc… etc…. Hustling affects the movie theater, the employees of the movie theater, the actors, the production company and all the individuals who invested their time and energy in production of the film.
Not to mention….

The families who look to invest time with each other by enjoying themselves at the movie theater.

My PEOPLE…. Hustling reaches far beyond the scope of merely selling drugs.

UH OH ….. Anyone associated with this type of transaction is known as an “accomplice to a robbery.”

#RAISINGTHESTANDARD

These people at the job are crazy!!!

These people at my job get on my nerves!!!

I DID NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS… THESE FOLKS ARE DOING TOO MUCH!

Our jobs present us with the opportunity to learn how to love others unconditionally through service. Genuine service comes from a heart of obedience, forgiveness and submission.

Genuine service is not self-seeking.

Please understand this: When our co-workers see us they should see Jesus.

THIS IS OUR ASSIGNMENT….

“OUR ASSIGNMENT” is NOT conditional, but there are times when we believe our jobs are….

These are two totally different mentalities…

A job is temporary, and can be considered as something you have been hired TO DO. An assignment can also be temporary, but should be considered as the person God has predestined for you to become. Our daily interactions with those who ruffle our feathers is called process.

Many of us feel as though our jobs are the vehicles we use to pay bills… But in Kingdom Reality our jobs are the vehicles we use not only to pay bills, but to win souls…. If you understand your assignment in the Earth.

One of the goals attached to our assignment is to win souls.

Remember: Our jobs are assignments given to us from God…
That is if we have allowed him to order our steps regarding the acquisition of employment.

You can easily find a job, but God must issue an assignment from his desk.

Maybe…

Maybe the reason why some of us are unemployed or underemployed is because God is preparing us for our assignment…

Love allows us to see a light where others would see darkness…
Love allows us to stand firm throughout the process…
Love allows us to complete our assignment…

The question is: Do we as a people really understand the meaning of love?
Love that is unconditional…

We’ve have yet come into a love that is unconditional…

We prefer comfort over loving our neighbor unconditionally. We avoid Jack and Jill at the water cooler because we don’t want to be bothered. We walked pass those who are blind all day everyday, sometimes without taking any action. BUT.. Understand that Jack and Jill Jane need you in their life to demonstrate the LOVE OF GOD. You may be the only person they come into contact with that can demonstrate this kind of love the way The Father sees fit for His love to be displayed.

But… because we prefer to be comfortable we choose the road of comfort.

You have two choices on where to rest:

A. The couch
B. The throne

The couch is for couch potatoes who give audience to sleep.
The throne is for kings who rule and reign in the midst of their enemies.

YOU GET ON MY NERVES!!

Maybe the reason why some of your coworkers get on your nerves is because they have been sent to push you into your purpose and destiny….

Engage the process by interacting with those people and circumstance that may cause you the most discomfort.. Nothing of value was ever produced with some type of friction.

If you only knew my story….

If we knew what our co-workers have been through we would be more likely to extend grace and mercy to them… We would be more quick to forgive them for their trespasses which is an extension of love that glorifies our Father..

 

Let’s get to the heart of the matter…

Which one of these statements would you consider a true statement?

A. Money is the root of all evil

B. The love of money is the root of all evil.

c. The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil.

D. The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.

Now let’s be honest… Some of our choices will vary, and this is dependent on our interpretation of this statement and our life experiences. Wouldn’t you agree?

Also… we have people in our society who repetitively parrot, “You know money is the root of all evil J”

First things first…. In all our getting we must get understanding. So let us take a journey into The Book of Life.

1 Timothy 6:10 – For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. (King James Bible)

Wisdom Key: ANY conversation,statement or sentence taken out of its original connotation (or meaning) will be misunderstood. If the conversation, statement or sentence is misunderstood then it will be applied incorrectly. We cannot afford to take a piece of one puzzle and attempt to put that same piece into a total different puzzle. That piece will not fit, AND this will cause us to cut corners. If we cut the corners off of The Blueprint our houses will be built incorrectly. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PRACTICE THAT HAS BEEN PERFECTED BY THE MAJORITY.

Understand this: The love of money statement (according to the bible) was given by Paul in reference to of all the evils before mentioned.

He stated, “But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts,which drown men in destruction and perdition. (King James Bible)

The ROOT

I believe the root of all evil is SELF. The Love of Self is the root of all evil. Without the overpowering stronghold of pleasing yourself (which is lust) the desire for an over-abundance of money is non-existence.  Self-will,self-ambition, self-righteous, self… self… self….  Causes a separation from The Lord… The Creator.

All we have to do is go back to the fall in Genesis to see how this episode plays out…

In saying that, “WE DECLARE AND DECREE THAT THE PEOPLE OF GOD WILL NOT SUBJECT THEMSELVES TO RE-RUNS OF THE FALL THAT TRANSPIRED IN THE GARDEN. WE DECREE LIFE OVER GOD’S PEOPLE. AMEN!

Let us not subscribe to re-runs of dysfunction.

So… In a desire despair of cloudiness we must ask ourselves,“Do I worship the creations or The Creator?

Let’s break this down and wrap this up!

• Love of money – BFF (Best Friend Forever); Strive after as the goal of life; coveted; lust after; personal affection toward.
• Root – Basic source, beginning, cause or origin
• Evil – Inward fowl; flowing out of morally rotten character

My answer is:

D. The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.

You can locate this interpretation in various versions of the bible.

SELAH!

As a bonus: One of the keys to riches (in our natural lives) is FORGIVENESS. If a person is harboring unforgiveness then they probably have an over-abundance of material things around them which is known as whoredom. Whoredom functions as a distraction from the true-reality in Christ.

“MINISTRY” cannot be pigeonholed to the four walls of the church… The ‘MAIN’ purpose of anything we do is to restore individual lives, families and communities.. If we continue to look at business through a tradition lens of what ministry is then there will be no convergence of the two into one.From a practical standpoint, businesses are to generate profits. However, if our business is generating a profit then this can serve as a prototype for others to FOLLOW….

This allows our business partners and clients to meet Jesus in the flesh (through what God has done through
us) which is indeed ministry..

We declare that the traditional lines of what we believed to be ministry and business be broken… The two shall become one…

Capital One… Master Card… Visa… American Express… Chase…

Hmm….

The credit card industry is the only industry I can think of
that does NOT have a product, there product is your income!
When a credit card company extends a line of credit to you
they are simply tapping your future earnings, it isn’t
another source of income it is YOUR income. Each time you
use the card it ensures that you MUST get up every morning
and go to work to pay (or build treasure cities) that credit
card whether you want to or not. ~ Julius Thomas
