Hearing From God....
God so longs for us to become part of the natural rhyme of our lives. He wants us to get to the point where we always seek His wisdom, grace and His gifts.
He also wants us to develop the habit of just thanking Him for being with us and showering us with His love. To thank Him for the gift of grace operating in us by His Spirit.
As we become more confident of God's presence in our lives, we are more likely to pause and pray for His wisdom, strategies, and strength to deal with difficult circumstances. As we do that, we become more comfortable listening to Him and acting on His promptings.
Do you long to hear from God? Practice listening to Him!
He is there to guide you lovingly through the little things that annoy you. As you turn to listen and act in love concerning those little things ("the little foxes, that spoil the vines") that get on your nerves, you position yourself to hear Him even louder with the big things.
God can raise you up, even amidst a major upheaval, and use you to minister to those around you.
The best way to improve your ability to hear from God is to listen to HIM through the mundane, day in and day out activities of life.
Today, whether things are going great for you or you feel like you are in a pit, you can still face many opportunities to seek out and follow HIS leading.
The more you turn to God, the better you will be able to hear His soft still voice.

Home Based Business ? 5 Steps To A Successful Home Based Business
Have you been thinking about starting a home based business?
When I retired from radio, I knew I wanted to do something that matched my passion, a business, that I could do from home.
Here are five steps for you to keep in mind when creating or maintaining a successful home based business.
* 1. You need to treat your home based business like any other job, you must be professional. You should treat this just like any other job, get a separate bank account for your business, get a telephone line and/or email specifically for your home business.
You will not want to mix too much of your personal life space in with your business. Get a separate room from the rest of your house for your business and set specific work hours. You have the freedom to work when you want and for how long but you should treat it like a structured goal, if you want your business to be successful. I realize this might be a challenge for stay at home moms. Do what you can. I know I changed a bedroom into an office one time just so I had that separation.
* 2. As I said above, set business hours for your home based business. You need to set a strict business schedule that works with you, and you need to follow it. You should not start working and take breaks to go to the store or watch a movie. If you set a good schedule that works for you follow it, work during the work time and then take breaks. This also means you need to leave your "e-mail checking" alone. Nothing crashes my schedule more than when I check my e-mail and forget the task at hand.
Set goals for projects that need to be completed. Do the things that make you profit.... Dani Johnson has a great break down of this in her training. Spend 80% of the time doing that which brings in the money. 19% to training and 1% to problem solving!
* 3. Self-discipline is very important when creating or maintaining a successful home based business. Starting and maintaining a successful home business is hard work and is not something to take lightly. You will need to have the self-discipline to work hard, even harder than when you are working for a company, and work long hours, longer than most jobs you have worked.
If you work hard, long hours and have great self-discipline you will start to get a good home business. Once this occurs you can lighten off yourself a little bit and start to really enjoy the freedoms of having a home based business. It may take a little time for this to occur though.
Once you learn and incorporate the skills to make money for your business, (http://showthemoneymakingsecret.com) you'll have time to stretch and grow in other areas.
* 4. Just like in any other business, advertising is one key. When you create a home business no one will know who you are. You need to advertise through internet banner ads, print media, and internet forums, whatever it takes. Pay per click advertising is another great form of advertising as you get paid for it and it helps promote your business.
You can also go the route of social media marketing which takes less money but more time. Check out the Six Market Plan Steps I wrote about and created videos for great ideas in this area, especially step three. (http://ministry-marketing-strategies.com/social-media-magnet.html)
* 5. If you want customers to be able to trust you than you must maintain your integrity. If you maintain your integrity you will win the trust of the customers and they will begin to buy your product or service. Once this occurs the customers will begin to help you by spreading the word of your company and the good product/service you are selling.
Nothing beats serving others. Nothing beats creating a positive and honest brand about who you really are.
Starting and maintaining a successful home based business is a hard thing to do. Once you have created a successful one, though, it is all worth it. These five steps should help you along the way to meeting your goals and doing something you are proud of, a successful home based business.

Freedom To Serve Today
The passion of my heart is to see you free to serve God.
For some, that may mean financial freedom while others may need a physical or spiritual healing to be free to go in the direction of their divine destiny.
Today we have an incredible opportunity to make a mark in our generation in excellence. Yes, the economy may be failing but no reason why you can't flourish. Some may be trying to survive, but you can thrive.
The question does not lie in the state of the economy but the state of mind a believer has. Believing the promises of God is a great place to start.
One of my favorite verses in light of having provision for the vision comes from Deuteronomy:
"But you shall [earnestly] remember the Lord your God, for it is He Who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day."Deuteronomy 8:17-18 AMP
Notice, it doesn't say God gives you wealth, but He gives you the POWER to gain wealth. That means He gives us the very power we need to be free to serve Him!
That means work. That means walking by faith.
You may have to "work your faith" by standing on the Word for your healing. You may have to "work your plan-job-vision" to be in a place to reap financial benefits to help you be free to serve.
As you pay attention to God's Word, He can give you the strategies to profit. Listen. Read. Pay attention to the Holy Spirit.
God can bring you before the right people at the right time to bring favor in your situation. Look at Nehemiah. He had a vision of re-building the walls of Jerusalem and God brought him before the person, the king, who could provide for that plan.
So, do what you know to do today. Pray. Ask God for wisdom on how to accomplish the plan you have to touch the world for Jesus Christ.
Activate your faith to trust Him for open doors and favor. Look to Him in trust that He can give you ideas, innovations, and strategies so you can be free to serve him.
Be faithful with with the small things He may give you, or small beginnings of the fulfillment of your dreams. "Who [with reason] despises the day of small things?" (Zechariah 4:10)
First, do what you know to do—work and give.
Then pray. Ask God for wisdom. Use your faith to trust God to open doors for you and to give you favor. Trust Him to give you ideas, strategies, and innovations. Be faithful with everything God gives you starting with the small things and moving on to bigger and bigger things.
You want to impact the world with your gift of Christian music? Start with impacting your community first.
Do you desire to preach to the nations? Be faithful with the small congregations He gives you now.
If you will seek first God, and put the Kingdom of God first...If you will dare to obey Him and give, and give, serving others first....."If you will reject covetousness and embrace generosity, then God says that He will teach you to profit and that your peace and prosperity will be like a flowing river!"
How Do You Need To Be Free To Serve?
Physical Healing:
Having a quality of life that includes a healthy body is a true gift and blessing. I realize many reading this may be suffering pains and illnesses of all kinds.
It goes without saying that we can go to the Word, to Jesus, and find healing.
With that being said, we are also called to be faithful to take care of our temples.
In the coming months, I will share links to share ideas, products, and health information to see you on your way to a healthy mind and body so you can be free to serve God.
Financial Freedom To Serve
One of the thrusts of this websites mission is to help you find real ways to be free financially.
Can you find successful ways to make money online without being scammed?
Can you take daily steps to work at home with a plan that can bring success?
Can you find someone to trust to help you?
Can you really experience success?
The answer is yes!
As my mentor Stephen Pierce has said, "The invisible forces of all success = focused thought, purposeful actions, priorities."
And as another mentor of mine, Dani Johnson, has said: "The marketplace pays for value. Your value is your skills."
With that being said, check out this free webinar! http://ping.fm/v3dWK
In this special "Instant Replay" of the 88 min webinar presentation by Stephen Pierce, you will learn...
* The 3 steps to igniting your income.
* 3 rules for making infinite internet income.
* How to add $10,000 a month to your income in the next 90 days.
* 5 proven profitable methods for making more money from the internet.

Let Stephen show you real steps to help you learn marketing steps to your financial freedom!
Spiritual Freedom: The Begining
If you have come across this site and do not know if you are rally free spiritually, may I encourage you to seek Jesus.
He is a God of saving not scolding.
"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9
Here are some other truths to free you spiritually:
"God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16
"God our Savior… desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth." 1 Timothy 2:3-4
And finally,
"If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 10:9
The bottom line is this: You can be free to serve Him! http://ping.fm/Rqfet
