Food for thought… Intelligence
Food for thought…
Intelligence: Intelligence has more to do with awareness than it does the accumulation of “book” or “head” knowledge. Intelligence is not how “smart” you are (SORRY); it’s an accumulation (in quality and quantity) of common sense. Common sense is the storehouse where all of our past experiences are stored and filed.
We cannot compare apples to oranges…
Apples and oranges are both fruit, but yet both are DIFFERENT. You and I are both humans, but yet we are both different. We are not “smarter” than one another because we are different. We learn differently, we think differently and we have similar, but different interests.
Hmm…
We all have different talents, skills, and abilities. Though we have standards used to measure scholastic ability in the Earth, these measures do not honestly weigh our “Intelligence.” These measures indicate our ability to RETAIN information that is released to us in the story of our individual lives.
In essence, talent and skill is the natural ability God has deposited on the inside of us and manifests in the Earth. So, a person can be “dumb” if he/she has accumulated a high dosage of “head” or “book” knowledge because he/she maybe only AWARE of his/her experience and no one else’s. Also, if he/she has yet to tap into their natural God-given ability then he or she can be considered as dumb (in a nice way).
Blessings!
MONEY!
MONEY!
Money in its earthy suit can be viewed as paper instruments (or dollar bills) in a printed form of expression.
However…
Money is not spent….. Money has never been spent…
I know.. I know…
What in the world do you mean money is not and has never been spent?
MONEY IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN EXCHANGED FOR SOMETHING YOU DEEMED AS VALUABLE.
Think about it: The idea of money being spent means that when it’s “spent” it’s gone. Would you agree?
True… True…
Now, does money miraculously vanish from the face of the planet because it leaves your hand?
We tell you, “NO!!!”
Have ever entertained the thought of something or someone sacred leaving your presence and never coming back?
If this were to happened, what would you do?
Hold on for dear life!
If you must hold on to something for dear life, is it truly yours?
If you release something, do you have faith that something greater will be released to you?
If you never released anything, then how can you make room for more?
Remember: God will never leave nor forsake us. He was, is and forever will be the person responsible for releasing money into our hands. If He will never leave nor forsake us, maybe the reason why our money is sporadic and minute is because we left his presence to chase dem dollars.
Or maybe we are holding on to the money is our possession because we don’ trust Our Father?
I can guarantee that anytime you released money from your hand, you received something in advance (before the transaction took place) or you received something after the transaction took place.
What do you place value on?
Hmm…. Think about it.
“Failing” versus “Learning”
Remember this…
We don’t give too much attention to failures (experiences) because AT TIMES people are failing at what they have NOT been called to become or do.
Failures (experiences) are nothing more places of humility…
Hmm….
Why do we give so much attention to a person who is being and doing something they are not?
Hmm…
Are we SIN-CONSCIOUS?
Maybe you perceived yourself “failing” at who God predestined you to become and what He has predestined you to do because you have mislabeled “failing” for “LEARNING.”
Stop trying to grade your own paper!
You are not the teacher, you are the student..
Does the fact of “LEARNING” overshadow the overall vision God has for your life? Do not get stuck in the hallways (or the process), keep your eye stayed on the outcome. Though it tarry, wait for it…

Kingdom Banking (Amplified)
Ecclesiastes 10:19 – A feast is made for laughter, and wine makes merry: but money answers all things.
Money truly answers ALL things…
When we speak of “MONEY” we are referring to “keseph” in its Hebraic translation.
Keseph can be viewed as:
silver
metal
ornament
colour
money, shekels, talents
TALENTS
Now, we can begin Kingdom Banking.
You must network to increase your networth. – Marcus Cage
Interconnected banks are “branches” stemming from a central location or headquarters. From an individual stanpoint, if you are apart of a network you should be X-CHANGING services and products within your network. He is the vine, and we are the branches (John 15:5). Only when we are fittly knitted together will we be able to make The Great Catch!
How does an individual establish an account (Socially & Financially)?
First things first… A DEPOSIT (Socially & Financially) must be made. Banking of any sort is about DEPOSITS and WITHDRAWALS.
Financial Empowerment (Knowledge) $ Financial Stability (Foundation) $ Financial Freedom (Expansion)
Financial freedom occurs when your PASSIVE income SUPERSEDES your life (operating) expenses (ANNUALLY). Passive income is income (money as TALENT) that works for you which results in a work produced. You MUST CAPTURE AND DISPLAY YOUR TALENT IN ORDER FOR OTHERS TO MAKE A PURCHASE. THIS IS CALLED: LEVERAGING YOUR INFLUENCE.
REVELATION: You can, but you don’t have to be in a physical location for someone to make a PURCHASE from you!
Many of us have attempted to calculate dollars per hour to no avail. No matter the calculation, it is never an even trade-off (in terms of dollars versus hours) when you must be physically present at your workplace to earn a wage.
We must utilize TECHNOLOGY as a LEVERAGE TOOL, the Inter – NET is BOUNDARYLESS (In location and TIME).
Technology stops TIME, this is why many are FAITHFUL to RE-RUNS on the television.
Again: We must utilize TECHNOLOGY as a LEVERAGE TOOL, the Inter – NET is BOUNDARYLESS.
This is EXPANSION.
Ask Floyd Mayweather. He is a DEMONSTRATION OF GOD GIVEN TALENT!
GOD GIVEN TALENT MAGNIFIED AND EXTENDED THROUGH MEDIA TO ENTERTAIN. However, we seperate “LIGHT” from “DARKNESS” to display how we can utilize technology to ENLIGHTEN.
At times, there is ENLIGHTMENT in ENTERTAINMENT.
Continuing on..
A bank MAKES MONEY ($), NOT EARNS, BUT MAKES MONEY ($) by lending MONEY ($) to its customers. The bank lends money ($) that is not theirs, it is we who make the deposits. Money (in dollars & talent) never sleeps, and reproduces after its own kind when CAPTURED and SOWED into the livelihood of a people.
You can do the same…
LEND YOUR MONEY (Keseph or TALENTS) to YOUR CUSTOMERS.
CUSTOMERS ARE THOSE WHO YOU EXCHANGE VALUE WITH: FAMILY, FRIENDS, COLLEAGUES, ETC…ETC..
FOR ENLIGHTENMENT…
Purchases occur within your SPHERE OF INFLUENCE when they receive your advice, suggestion or counsel (personal or business) which begins and ends in Him, Our Lord Christ Jesus.
Your internal atom-SPHERE must change in order for your external atom-SPHERE to change and EXPAND.
Lastly…
An overdrawn account is a liability that keeps you in the RED. This is why some individuals are stagnant and FRUSTRATED. You must reconcile and close overdrawn accounts be it friends, family, habits, thoughts, tendencies, environments, etc. Don’t hold yourself accountable to the past for the outward man is PERISHING..
MOVE FORWARD!
It is time to go on to perfection (completion, maturity).
We are overdrawn, and long overdue.
Blessings.
