Six Keys To Remove The Mountain To Flow In Holy Spirit

2012-01-15T13:20:00.001-05:00

By Theresa Croft of DTC Ministry Marketing

To the Ministry Marketing & Kingdom Builders Team - January 12, 2012

At the end of last year the Lord whispered to my heart that 2012 was going to be known as "The Year That The Glory Fell!"

I believe you are part of that glory going forth into the world!

And I know facing the beginning of a New Year you may have questions and struggles with trying to put the pieces together.

I tweeted this the other day as I prayed for you:

"The message of your mission must not get lost amidst the pressure of the present."

What pressure is holding you down? You can always find reasons why you can't fulfill this call to spread your message....

"I don't have time. I don't have the money."

"I don't have the skill or knowledge."

"I'm afraid to start and fail...again...I'm afraid of those who say it can't be done..."

How badly do you want to manifest this God given destiny to advance the Kingdom of God through your ministry, gift, book, preaching.... the anointing God has given you?

It it takes years, would it be worth it?

So, how do you FLOW toward your goal amidst the mountain of...lack, amidst the negative 'wing clippers' around you who say it can't be done now

with "such a bad economy'?

God gave me a great answer I'd love to share with you.

It's a simple acronym to F-L-O-W:

Faith that

Loves God and

Obeys His

Word.

Then in Mark 11:20-26 God downloaded in my heart:

Six Keys To Remove The Mountain To Flow In His Supernatural Anointing!

Read these verses when you can! Here are the six keys:

1) Have faith in God. (Faith comes by hearing the Word of God).

2) Speak faith. (Faith that speaks must first be faith that seeks...God)

3) Believe God and not your doubt (fears)

4) Renew your heart (mind) daily in His Word

5) Pray

6) Forgive...no holding offenses.

So the fuel to FLOW in your mission to spread your message lies in your faith that speaks and believes God as you renew your heart in the word, praying and walking in forgiveness.

Praise God. That makes me want to run around my house!

Well, to help you FLOW with a Kingdom and Ministry Strategy online, I introduce to you a monthly training that will give you strategies, revelation, encouragement, accountability, and a simple plan to implement.

Provision For Vision Via Automation

2011-12-13T03:42:00.001-05:00

Looking for provision for your vision?

How about online...

You know how I always say if the Jihad can use the internet for a holy war, why can't we use it to advance the Kingdom of God?

Well, how about this? If a guy like Mike can figure out technology and make it simple to make his business, authors, coaches, and other clients mucho bucks, that is, much provision for his client's visions….

Here is more on that...

Well, why can't you do the same for your mission, message, ministry, or market place business with the same TECHNOLOGY?

Do you have to be a whiz at computers and internet market stuff?

NO!

Seriously, go now and watch Mike explain:

http://MarketPlanProvision.com

I'll let my video below do the rest of the explaining why I want you to read this and watch his videos.

To be specific right here, one reason is because I believe you are one of the hidden gems, that God is going to use in these latter days through your message, your mission, your ministry or marketplace venture. You may fill empty now...but He is doing HIS work in you to manifest the Kingdom of God on earth.

Yes…you are set up by God…To stand out from the rest in wealth, health, and provision as famine hits the land. Why?

Because He knows He can trust you with the bounty to bring about His glory.

This might be for you, or it might not.

I'll let you decide…

It involves technology…powerful internet tools and platforms…that are set up for anyone to capitalize on to connect with their "flock" or target market.

And the key?

Automation…so you;re more free to do what you do best!

Go watch now!

http://MarketPlanProvision.com

I'll let my friend Mike explain all this…Just watching the second video in this series.could be an answer prayer for you. My friend Dr. Bill Williams can't wait to get his hands on this technology. He shared his thoughts…I'll include them here.

Check out SOME of the comments Video #1 got (there are almost 1,000 of them already!)

My friend Bill's is the second one!

Video Ministry: God's Train Is NOT Behind Time

2011-11-05T00:56:00.001-04:00

by Ministry Marketing Productions, Theresa Croft

This video ministry centers on the fact that “God’s Train is not behind time!

How about this verse:

“For the vision is yet for an appointed time,

but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though

it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” (Habakkuk 2:3)

I want to express to you that God is always on time. He

knows your vision and your plans. His time table is perfect.

Here is a Destiny Word for you. Click here on on

the video below:

I love what Charles Spurgeon says. This hit me in a great way:

“The Lord in unfailing wisdom has appointed a time for the outgoings of His gracious power, and God’s time is the best time. We are in a hurry; the vision of the blessings excites our desire and hastens our longings; but the Lord will keep His appointments. He never is before His time; He never is behind.

God’s word is here spoken of as a living thing which will speak and will come. It is never a dead letter, as we are tempted to fear when we have long watched for its fulfillment. The living word is on the way from the living God, and though it may seem to linger, it is not in reality doing so. God’s train is not behind time.”

My friend and Kingdom Trainer, Ericka D. Jackson, said it this way:

“I wanted to tell you that all of your holding on is about to pay off in a big way. All the days of the Lord breaking you, emptying you out and then stripping you are so worth it….

“No matter what things are looking like around you, stay focused on building His Kingdom and completing the assignment He has given you. Do it with ALL of your power, passion and capacity and He will greatly reward you.”

One more final note. I heard a well known and respected

prophet saying that anointed people like you, ministers who have

the dreams and the visions and calling on them in a strong way,

are going to go through a real test. God is preparing you NOW

for that test. NO, it’s not a test about lack but about abundance.

Can God entrust to you with the overflowing of His wealth for you

to be about the Kingdom of God? Forget the world’s economy.

We are talking about God’s economy for God’s time…the end times.

Yep, you are right where HE wants you…and I think I see Gold..

in you!

So go watch the video above…and be encouraged!

And get on God’s train….

Your best days are here…and still to come!

Christian Media Army: Online With Ministry

2011-08-29T13:01:00.001-04:00

Christian Media Army Is Arising Online

Christian Media Army is on the move on the internet today, proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ.

It is a force of Christians who use their gifts, anointing, music, talents and ministry to impact the World for the Kingdom of God through the avenue of media.

You have a gift. You have an anointing. You have skills and talents.

Have you though of promoting these online, without feeling like your promoting yourself?

What is I told you that you can be active online, in ministry, in your service, with your book, and be able to support yourself in these areas of creativity and ministry?

Really?

Yes. Really.

As you do, you become a vital part of the Christian Media Army online.

Because of the Kingdom training by such people as Patricia King of XPMedia.com (who I first heard the term "God's Media Army"), and author and Kingdom Trainer, Ericka D. Jackson, I have been all the more determined to do my part in equipping and activating Christians to take their role in this force.

Here is one example of that training with Ericka and the one of a kind Reach Ministry Marketing System, combining Kingdom Training and Ministry Marketing. This is one training to truly equip you to be an integral part of God's Media Army!

You will also be taught how you can thrive, being supportive by your ministry God has given you!

Christian Media Army Training

Prophetess Julie Meyer:

"'I declare to you: "God is going to have His way in every facet of media as long as people are driven by prayer and passion for HIM and their 'ONE THING' continues to be passion for God and prayer.'"

It states in Mark 16:15:

"And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.'

Now you can go to the world, from your home via online with the Good News of Jesus.

I first totally understood the power of this a year ago. I had been involved in ministry marketing for around 5 years and understood it was a force to be contend with, so I began producing my husband's digital online ministry.

FirebrandMinistry.com was a blog where I featured my husband, Pastor Dave's, ministry of preaching and teaching the Word of God.

Before long I began noticing in the back office of our blog, views of this video ministry from all over the world! My husband began actively using his social media sites to continue to encourage and pray for people.

It was fun shouting out to Dave the countries where people were watching the videos: Pakistan, India, South Africa, England, Germany, Ireland.......

Then I was watching God.TV and saw the Word Explosion where Steve Hill was preaching and sharing about how many text message were going out a day, and how big social sites were.....

Steve said..."Who knows...some little kid in some far away country may drive his bicycle into a internet cafe' and start to search and find God....and get saved!"

I was captivated and knew my calling all the more clearly with my passion to use and teach video, ministry marketing, and social media.

The effect on our online digital ministry was amazing. Soon people from all over the world were asking Dave to come to preach, to share more on his Facebook site, and to minister one on one. They were asking him to counsel them on Skype (and later great meetings on "oovoo"..the site I use with the interview above...)

Will You Be In The Christian Media Army?

So, do you sense the call of God on your life to use this thing called the internet, social media, video...and use your gifts to minister?

Do you desire provision for your vision?

I revised my book, Six Market Plan Steps For Ministry Marketing, updating and outlining a basic plan of action. In addition to purchasing the book, I add bonuses with video training, and mental training, such as the five keys to Focus. (I also add a bonus of sending you a cd audio of the book to your home.)

I also am excited to help Ericka D. Jackson with her four part Reach Ministry Marketing System.

This is a one of a kind training you can check out at http://ErickaJackson.com/reach

What will you do? Are you undecided? Worried about finances? Doubting your abilities? Concerned with the economy?

Now is the time. It's a new season.

You have been called for such a time as this!

Ministry Marketing: Do You Know How To Promote The Message

2011-08-24T03:06:00.001-04:00

How Do You Promote The Message?

By Ericka D. Jackson

How do you promote the message the Lord has placed within you in a way that people see Jesus and not you?

  This can be a challenge because in order to share the work of the Lord, you lend your name and face to Him as His Body.   The key to how you promote the message without drawing more attention to yourself than you do Jesus, is to be fully led and guided by Him.

He will tell you with whom to share the message He has placed within you, He will guide you to the training you need and He will provide the revelation He is instructing you to share. 

Ericka D. Jackson speaking with Theresa Croft of Ministry Marketing Strategies on how to promote the message training with here training system.

Promote The Message To Proclaim Gospel

Before I put a single word in social networking, an ezine, book or a video, I ask the Lord, “Lord, what would you like to say through me?” It is only when I move out of the way that the Lord can pour His message through me.  

Did you know that Christianity is the slowest growing religion on the earth right now? It is critical to release the teachings of the Lord for such a time as this.

  The more you lift up the name of Jesus with your specific message, the more He will draw men unto you. And the more you must be emptied out and fully realize that it is not at all about you, it is all about Him.  

Although I will be teaching the full process in the upcoming Reach Ministry Marketing System Course, here are a few ways to help you make the name of Jesus and His works even more famous on the earth: 

Receive ALL of your instruction directly from the Lord. This includes what He desires you to teach and the gifts with which He has preordained you to use.

Your face and name should only be the initial draw as you promote the message. Then people should be able to clearly see Jesus in all you do. Make sure you use a professional picture that shows the love and joy of the Lord through the image so people see His light and love through you.

Increase the time you are spending first thing everyday in His presence. Ask Him what He would have you share with His people today. Release only what He has authorized and instructed you to share that day.

Reach Out And Thrive: Ministry Marketing Training

2011-08-20T04:20:00.001-04:00

The Reach Ministry Marketing System

By Ericka Jackson

After ten years and thousands of hours of sitting in His presence and studying marketing, I have arrived at The Reach Ministry Marketing System that makes it easy for others to share the message of their ministry with others both locally and round the world.

I am unveiling my marketing system for the first time in one, cohesive training system.

It is not enough to be a great teacher or preacher of the Word. You are also responsible for getting that message into the hands of the people God has set aside for you to reach.

In other words, every ministry has to understand that they have a message to get into the marketplace and the best way to do this. And it has to be effective so you can get back to the core functions of working with the people of God and bringing salvation to the unsaved.

But, most ministers are not wired for business. This lack of business wiring is so prevalent in the ministry community that most ministers are not even comfortable working their ministry as their livelihood and just passing along your gifting for free.

Click Chere to learn more to see if this training is for you! ______________________________________________________________

But, Jesus needs you to complete the works that He began upon the earth. He needs you to plant His Kingdom.

How can you do this if no one knows the message He has given you to carry to His people?

This means that as ministers we have to also become masters at connecting or what the world calls marketing.

This is a serious challenge for most ministers because we are heart people. Ministry and marketing are not in the same sentence for most ministers.I have taken the head-ache, frustration and overwhelm out of the process of you finding and connecting with your flock. With this proven system, you will easily be able to locate your flock and communicate with them both online and offline powerfully and often.

I have perfected this marketing system over the last ten years. When I began my ministry, I could not find ANYTHING that spoke to the unique needs of a ministry in sharing your information with others. It wasn't as easy as plugging in my information into secular marketing systems, programs and teaching.

I had to figure out how to do this on my own with absolutely NO model for those called to build and grow a ministry outside of the local church structure.

I perfected this system as I had to rebuild my ministry from scratch three different times. The first time was when I made a decision to move into full obedience and leave corporate training to teach "spiritual" principles. But, Jesus did not let me get away with this for long.

As I was filming a TV show back in Seattle, right in the middle of the walk-through He asked me, "Why do you keep hiding me?" That day I had to hit the "restart" button and shift my work to the Christians to which I was called.I had to start over. Almost NONE of my professional contacts were in the Christian community. I had to learn very quickly how to redefine my target market to taking responsibility for having a portion of the Lord's flock to teach and equip.

As soon as I was plugging along and had built my e-list to thousands, the Lord called me to move my ministry from Seattle, WA to Raleigh, NC. Not only did I have to start over in a new location where NOBODY knew my name or my work, the Lord told me that I had to terminate the two training contracts I had with other companies in order to release all He has placed within me.

I had to dust off the marketing principles I had learned the first and second time around and move them into high-gear because I had only weeks to produce the income that was needed to sustain both the ministry and my daughter...as a single mother.

I had to get real good really fast.

And About that Money Thing

It is time to activate your divine scriptural right to make a living through your ministry (see 1 Corinthians 9: 14). God has given you gifts so you can apply those gifts to building His Kingdom on a full-time basis. Face it, your vision needs ALL of you.

Kingdom Training With Your Ministry Marketing Online

2011-08-15T05:19:00.001-04:00

Kingdom Training To Be In God's Media Army

Why kingdom training?

In my pursuit of providing content for you to learn basic ministry marketing strategies, I realized we have to be whole, healed, and clean vessels of honor to minister. My heart is to train Christians for God's media army to make an impact on the world for Jesus Christ.

I said it before, and I'll say it again: If the Jihad can use the internet to train up their terrorist groups, Christians need to be just as diligent to use the same tool to train and activate Christians to bring the Kingdom of God to their corner of the world.

Kingdom training deals with a spirit of excellence that reveals God's character.

I wanted to know even more about the Kingdom of God, and how I could relate it to you as you go forward with your ministry.

So I went to the word and began to study what truly is the Kingdom. I was also blessed to read material from some great Kingdom Trainers and godly teachers who only inspired me all the more to desire to include this in my family, my life, in my coaching and in my ministry marketing.

Kingdom Training Revealed

I started out considering kingdom training by realizing I had to excel in all things. One morning in my time with the Lord, I read Proverbs 22 verse 29:

"Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before Kings; he will not stand before unknown men.”

I've read this verse many times, but this time God gently spoke to my heart.

He said, "I see your heart, Theresa, and wanting to excel as a minister, as a consultant, as a marketplace woman. But do you really want to excel in My Kingdom?"

"Yes, Lord!", I responded back. "I want to excel with the spirit of excellence in all I do giving you the glory!"

The Lord then very matter-of-fact spoke to my heart:

"Excel first as a wife! Be that Proverbs 31: 25 and 26 woman: 'Strength and honor are her clothing; she shall rejoice in time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and on her tongue is the law of kindness.'"

Then the Lord said, "Excel as a mother. Be that Proverbs 31:27 woman who,'watches over the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also and he praises her: 'Many daughters have done well, But you excel them all.'"

Gulp. "I hear you Lord!"

So I understand the order in this kind of Kingdom training. It's simply this: Business principles are great, but God's Kingdom principles must come first.

We ministers sometime gets so busy tending to other people's needs and demands, that we forget we need to stay connected to the vine, to be clean, to be whole, healthy vessels.

We must deal with those closest to us and those relationships around us now and from the past.

We must tend to the relationships that wounded us in the past, those hurts that have left us carrying baggage of wounds and extreme emotional scars.

This means to walk in forgiveness, to not be so quick to be offended, and to continually walk in the power of the Holy Spirit.

As author and Kingdom Trainer, Ericka D. Jackson states in her latest book, "Your Heart is the Key: Clearing Emotional Baggage From Your Life"

"One of the most damaging things on the planet is an insecure and unhealed minister. It is the unhealed ministers that walk, and insecurity that leads to wounding their flock, holding back the gifts of those in their congregation, sitting people down instead of equipping them for the works of the ministry, and attempting to get people to honor them instead of the instruction of Jesus through the Holy Spirit."

She goes on to say, "This is so dangerous because an insecure minister will often pose the option of following traditions of man and rudiments of the world which are not of Christ versus righteousness which is the order of Jesus that is led by the Holy Spirit.”

Basic Keys To Kingdom Training

I believe there are basic keys to the kingdom training:

They have to do with following the Word of God, being a humble servant, and walking in continual obedience.

Attributes of Kingdom people can be found in Matthew chapter 5 verse one through Matthew chapter 7 verse 27.

In the sermon on the Mount, Jesus outlines the primary attributes of people who are walking out the fruit of Kingdom training.

These attributes include:

Humility

Willingness to suffer persecution

A strong commitment to God's commandments

Refusal to substitute false piety for genuinely right behavior

A life of prayer

Seeking first the Kingdom over material things

And above all, acknowledging the Lordship of Jesus Christ by obeying the revealed Will of God.

In addition, the call to Kingdom living and ministry includes the expectation that the Holy Spirit will empower the minister to walk in such a way that the fruits of the spirit will clearly be seen, such as righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.Let us endeavor to be just as committed in our Kingdom training as well as in our ministry pursuits, so as to have an impact on this world for Christ.

I believe God is raising up people like you, people who have a powerful anointing, who write powerful books, sing heart moving songs, make inspiring movies….People like you who are being raised up to be a part of God's Media Army….

"You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden…" Matt5:14

As the days get darker, the light will shine more brightly. May all you do be a true reflection of the Kingdom of God!

Don't Shoot The Wounded-Reach Ministry Marketing System

2011-08-12T21:41:00.001-04:00

What is that saying?

God's army is the only one that shoots its own wounded?

Remember that song by Chuck Girard back in the early "80's?

Don't shoot the wounded, they need us more than ever

They need our love no matter what it is they've done

Sometimes we just condemn them,

And don't take time to hear their story

Don't shoot the wounded, someday you might be one

It's easy to love the people who are standing hard and fast

Pressing on to meet that higher calling

But the ones who might be struggling, we tend to judge too harshly

And refuse to try and catch them when they're falling

We put people into boxes and we draw our hard conclusions

And when they do the things we know they should not do

We sometimes write them off as hopeless

And we throw them to the dogs

Our compassion and forgiveness sometimes seem in short supply

So I say...

I know YOU are part of the solution to bring hope, comfort, and

an answer to those wounded by the Body of Christ.

Or salvation to those who don't know Him.

You have a gift, anointing…It may be in your particular ministry,

your book, your music, or your service.

And I truly believe you are part of the answer for these end times.

It's time to take action. The harvest is white…and a great many

Ministry Marketing Videos: Basic Instructions To Promotion

2011-07-29T20:32:00.001-04:00

Ministry Marketing Videos: Tips For Christian Promotion And Marketing

Recently I produced some ministry marketing videos to answer questions about ministry marketing online, Christian promotion, and how to earn money on the internet.These are content packed videos that attempt to answer basic questions I get asked and e-mailed from various people who desire to market their ministry for promotion, and from earnest believers desiring to find ways for provision for their vision.

The bottom line here is helping you harness the power of the internet for your ministry, promotion and profit. One of my passions is to see you free to serve Him. It's not about spamming an opportunity or making up filler material.

Hence, I love to produce ministry marketing videos of valuable content!

The premise of this lies in the following interview I had with Kingdom Trainer, Author and Ministry Expert Ericka Jackson.You can watch this interview by clicking here!

The S-P-E-A-K Ministry Marketing Plan

Part of the premise of this basic marketing plan can be found in an acronym God gave me, for SPEAK.

I got this as I was driving home from Texas after spending the weekend at an internet boot camp at Stephen Pierce's ranch outside of Dallas, Texas.

As I continued to read the Word and ponder the work SPEAK, the Holy Spirit filled in the gaps.

In basic form here it is:

S S stands for specific market. A basic marketing principle where you need to identify your target market or your niche you are trying to reach.

P P stands for precise (and proven!) marketing strategies. The key to ministry marketing,social media, Christian promotion, and provision for your vision is contained by implementing these precise marketing strategies.I cover these basic steps in my book "Six Market Plan Steps To Ministry Marketing". Click here to watch a video covering the features to these steps!

E E stands for excellence. Let everything you do as you work and serve others be with a spirit of excellence! You are a King's kid. You represent a Holy God. Your actions, speech, and spirit in which you serve should reflect your intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.

A A stands for action! You must move and work toward your vision. Many of my ministry marketing videos in the free Ministry Marketing Book Video series will tell you what action to need to take to have a successful marketing plan online! This is putting your faith to work!!

K K stands for kneel. You must humble yourself before the Lord and maintain your relationship with Him. This is a vital key for life! The more I pursue helping others with their businesses or ministries online, the more I realize I need to be a clean vessel. I must remain yielded to God and His Holy Spirit. As I humbly go to Him for wisdom, I am amazed at the revelation God pours out into my life, from personal to my marketing!

SPEAK - The Glue That Holds It All Together!

And yes, this spells SPEAK. The glue that holds this plan together is your speaking words of life over your vision, your ministry, your family, your ministry. As it says Proverbs 18:21: "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."

The ministry marketing videos that I have produced over the years go will in detail on this plan, in addition to other basic marketing tips.

Here is an introduction to one of my latest FREE Video series opened for a limited time.

Thank you for the opportunity to share my passion with you!

And yes, I do like to share my content via ministry marketing videos!

Currently I have two major series going on at the same time.

Ministry Marketing: How To Profit Online With Your Vision

2011-07-26T05:02:00.001-04:00

How To Profit Online With Your Ministry Marketing

You want to profit online! You read and hear the stories of people who have found the golden key to use the internet to make money for their message, or those who have found provision for their vision online!

So what is the key basic element in your ministry marketing plan to gaining a profit online?

Setting up this one pivotal step with help you on your way for wealth for your pursuit in advancing the Kingdom of God.

This one basic internet marketing step involves you creating a list of people in your target market audience.

This is not just any kind of list.

It's a collection of potential clients, prospects, customers, friends, and people who want to hear from you. You have a message, a product, a service, or an anointing that people want or need more of to help them!

This is the important factor in reference to this list that will help you profit online.

For example, when they see your name in their e-mail, they can't open that e-mail fast enough because they know you share valuable content, that you are encouraging, inspiring, and always helping them solve a problem…or two.

You speak "their language" in reference to what matters to them, what matters to your target market.

Here is a video sharing some examples online in relation to ministry.

Click HERE For More Free Videos In This Ministry Marketing Book Video Series!

So this step is simply this: In exchange for their name and e-mail, you send them something of value in content in the form of a report (pdf), audio, video, or simple e-book that they can download instantly.

I personally prefer to over deliver by giving videos away that explain how to do something in relation to ministry marketing or Kingdom Training. (Like the example above!)

For example, one of my recent video series is based on my book, "Six Market Plan Steps For Ministry Marketing."

So in exchange for a name and e-mail, I deliver not 10 but 15 videos of valuable content that cover the basic steps in ministry marketing online. I desire to help pastors, evangelists, musicians, authors and entrepreneurs harness the power of the internet for preaching, promotion, and yes, profits online! So I continue to periodically e-mail them with more videos or more content they want.

So, you create the valuable content. Then what?

You set up a squeeze page or "opt-in" page, or a form they can fill out on the side of your blog. This is made easy with some great auto-responder e-mail list web services, such as aweber, 1shopping cart, or Monster Follow Up.

The main point here is you ,serving others, with valuable content….and giving it away!

To learn more about this step, check out my book or the free Ministry Marketing Book Video Series.

Ministry Marketing Book: Work Your Vineyard

2011-07-15T00:50:00.001-04:00

Provision For Your Vision? Plant A Vineyard!

You may be in a position where you are really looking for provision for your vision. You have a message that you know God has implanted in your heart and you are ready to step up to the plate to deliver it.

You have a message, and to keep that message going forward you need money.

But...you experience the same thing: No phone rings asking you to speak, your bank account remains the same (empty), you seem stuck in the same place, or you have stacks of books, cd, and/or products stacked in your garage waiting to be sold.

What do you do for provision for your vision?

Plant A Vinyard--Tend Your Flock

Plant a vineyard.

"Say what?"

What I have to share is a simple plan you can put into action today.

It's based on 1 Corinthians 9 where God has been speaking volumes to me lately. The more I camp out on that Chapter the more God speaks to me about helping others harness the power of the internet for profits.That's one of my passions. I desire to see you FREE spiritually, physically, and financially to go in the direction of your God given destiny.

So back to 1 Corinthians Chapter 9. Check out verse 7:

"Who ever goes to war at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? Or who tends a flock and does not drink of the milk of the flock?"

Look at those key words…"goes to war", "plants", "tends".

They involve you (and me) going forward in action. They involve work.

This is what God spoke to me.

He gives us the plan, the vision, the desire that is behind our destiny.

No matter what it is, if it involves you impacting others for Christ, you can count that as being at war! Our adversary the devil would like nothing more than to keep you bound by depression, lack, and procrastination.

But we overcome him by the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony....

It says in 2 Corinthians 10:2-3: "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds..."

He is a squirm bug meant to be under our feet. Don't believe his lies that you will never see real provision for your vision!

So I encourage you to rise up and stick it hard to this slimy opponent!

How?

Make your dream, your vision…make it your vineyard, or your flock.

And work it!

When it comes to the internet, you will have to rise up and learn some new skills or invest in Kingdom training. Use your time and free tools available to learn, to write, to move forward.

Are you waiting for someone to ask you to preach at church?

Start your own video ministry and start preaching into your web cam, on Blog Talk Radio, or at Ustream.

You'd love to write a book?

Make an outline. Write the book. Start writing on a blog….Transcribe your videos…

I think you are getting the ideas here.

Finding a plan for provision for your vision is as simple as you moving forward with the wisdom, anointing, and skills God has given you!

You plant, you tend…..and watch how God can provide the resources.

The glue to hold this vineyard together is found in John Chapter 15. Jesus says He is the vine we are the branches.

"“I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away;[a] and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit."

Cling to the vine, Jesus. Trust Him for the wisdom, the time, and the favor.

Start today.

Why wait for the resources when you have something already in your hand, or in your house. (1 Kings 4:1-7

You have gifts and anointing. You have skills and abilities. You have wisdom and revelation.

Begin sharing now. Make it your vineyard. Plant…go to work….and watch God provide for you to continue to have provision for the vision

Ministry Marketing: Are You A Red Or Green Tomato?

2011-07-11T20:43:00.001-04:00

Are You Ripe For Your God Given Destiny?

So you’re ready for your God given destiny to be fulfilled. You are ready to go through the door to the fulfillment of all that you know God has called you to in regards to your ministry, your music, your service, or maybe a product such as a book.

And it’s just not happening. What do you do?

Wait. And trust your God given destiny will be a reality soon. And grow where you are planted.

A great example I have found comes from my husband’s garden and a tomato plant.

Are You A Red Or Green Tomato?

After Dave planted the beautiful tomato vines in the rich Georgia soil, I waited with great expectation for the tomatoes to appear. Before long they did, and then it was an another wait process for them to turn red.

The growth process seemed rather slow as I was eager to have a good ‘ole Southern tomato sandwich, complete with Blue Plate Mayo, of course!

While we waited for the tomatoes to turn red, my husband decided to go ahead and fry up some southern specialty “fried green tomatoes”. While they tasted ok, what we really wanted was a ripe red tomato for a sandwich or to slice up in a salad. So this got me to thinking about one’s God given destiny in life. You have a vision of what you know God as called you to, and often you have to wait through the process of that vision becoming reality.

You might feel as if you are sitting there...wasting away...as if your dream is dead. It may be because of lack of resources. It may be because of frustration or overwhelm. You may think to your self, “Is there any hope?”

May I encourage you with the tomato plant in our garden?

So, it’s like this. The tomato plant just stands there, in the fertile soil that my husband faithfully waters. When the tomato appears, it stays put clinging to the vine.

The plant stays rooted and grounded in the soil.You are like this tomato plant. You need to cling to the vine...cling to Jesus as you grow.

You need to be rooted and grounded in the Word of God as you go through the process of growing and bearing tomatoes (fruit), allowing the Holy Spirit to strengthen and refresh you.

Now you could go ahead and be a green tomato trying to make your vision happen on your own. You go ahead rushing your God given destiny, and It may get real hot with trials and messes along the way.

Some people may really like you, some may not, just as some people like fried green tomatoes while others do not.

I believe the majority of people like a ripe red tomato!

You are meant to be ripe for your God given destiny. Sometimes that may mean you have to wait and grow. But I encourage you with this simple thought:

Stay clinging to the vine--Jesus. (John 15) Stay rooted deep in God’s word and go through the process of simply growing, being nourished and trained by His Word.

Do you hear a tomato grunting and groaning as it grows?

No!

You don’t either. You don’t have to grunt and groan to be what God has called you to in regards to your vision.

Stay clinging to the vine, stay rooted in the Word. Keep believing in the vision. Be patient with God’s perfect timing...

I love what Oswald Chambers says:

"The vision is not a castle in the air, but a vision of what God wants you to be. Let Him put you on His wheel and whirl you as He likes, and as sure as God is God and you are you, you will turn out exactly in accordance with the vision. Don't lose heart in the process."

Don’t lose heart in the process of being ripe for your destiny!

Video Ministry: Celebrate Freedom

2011-07-03T14:21:00.001-04:00

The 4th of July is fun to celebrate freedom.

I can think of no better celebration than rejoicing over one'strue freedom through salvation in Jesus.

This holiday brings back a special memory for me concerning myson William. Around this time three years ago, he accepted Jesus into his heart and became a Christian. It was a true celebrate freedom in Jesus Time!

Ever with a camera in my hand, I recorded a video with him sharing a bit about it, and uploaded it to my YouTube account and put it on one of my blogs.

I didn't think much of it.

A few weeks went by when all of a sudden I was getting these e-mails relaying comments on my blog. It was this very blog too by the way.

They were NOT pretty and nice comments.

Without my knowing it, a very agnostic and atheist blog had picked up my YouTube video, put it on their blog, and proceeded to rip me as a Christian. They said some of the ugliest things…that I was brain washing my child and was crazy…That was not the worst of things said…

Before I had shot this video, I had made up my mind….kind of like drawing a line in the sand, saying to myself that I would continue using video online to proclaim Jesus Christ. I had started my own video ministry, Keys To Be Free, about three months before this all out vicious attack.
The Celebrate Freedom Video Of Controversy
I thought about taking the video down…but then…thought…NO!

I had a few people stick up for me and share in the joy of William's moment to celebrate freedom in Christ! But the attacks were more than the hoorays!

It was a pivotal time though. This attack made me all the more committed to study and learn about video and how to produce it FOR MINISTRY!!

Today, I am more passionate than ever to use video to proclaim the goodness of our Lord Jesus. AND I'm committed to help others do the same.

Yes, I want to see YOU harness the power of the internet for preaching….for the Gospel…for your ministry.

I guess this time of the year reminds me how good God has been as I see others use the internet positively to impact others for Christ, as they celebrate their freedom in Him.

My husband and I have had a online digital ministry for over a year at FirebrandMinistry.com…..with visitors all over the world.

So what about you? Has God been tugging on your heart to be brave, be bold, and look into a camera and speak!! …or WRITE….or TEACH…or PREACH…online?

I put up a new series…15 videos….to help those who are ready to go forward in their ministry online…whether it's for video or blogging…or social media or…

Video Ministry: Legacy Of Selfless Men

This video ministry features Pastor Dave Croft preaching at his grandfather's funeral the Sunday after his own father's funeral.

Harry Croft died suddenly from a heart attack Thursday. Saturday Dave's grandfather, Lee Roy Ellis passed on to be with Jesus.

Dave was blessed to spend a lot of time with his dad the past five weeks before he passed. I am sure he'll share more about that in a later video ministry.

Both his dad and granddaddy were examples of selfless men.

The definition of uselfish is:

"Willing to put the needs or wishes of others before one's own."

That describes Harry Croft!

This video features Pastor Dave sharing about his grandaddy.

Online Video Ministry: The Open Window Of Destiny

This online video ministry from Firebrand Ministry features Theresa Croft, in for Pastor Dave.

Powerful revelation in the above article. Thanks to Regina for leading to it….

This quote below is at this link…click here for more in depth work.

“The chief gatekeepers were entrusted with the responsibility for the rooms and treasures in the house of God. Those gatekeepers would spend the night stationed around the house of God, because they had to guard it. They opened the gates each morning. This I believe represents the assignment to pray specifically for the ministries in the church (1 Chron. 9:26) or for the finance (2 Chron 31:14). I believe that God has given to some intercessors special faith to believe Him for the finances that are needed to do a specific work.”

Theresa Croft says:

“I am believing and standing and praying for you…Ample provision for your vision in the Kingdom of God.

Don’t lose heart. Stand fast. Don’t fall asleep. Stay in His Presence, in His Word, in PRAYER…Don’t panic amidst the process of God leading you to the fulfillment of your vision to your destiny.

The process is the place where you learn to cling to the vine, to be faithful with what God has put in your hand (despise not small beginnings), and to learn how to pray in the still place of waiting.

Your gift will make room for you. (Proverbs 18:16)

Trust Him to bring you to the connections you need.

Stay with the wise. Seek godly counsel. (Proverbs 11:14) (Proverbs 13:20)

Commit your heart to Him. Let Him direct your steps.

Feed on His Word. Let His Spirit dwell in you.

Delight yourself in the Lord Jesus and trust Him to give the desires of your heart. (Psalm37:3)

God bless you and keep you.

For He has raised you up…for such a time as this.

Are you ready?”

Christian Music Promotion: Power Of Music Videos

One powerful method of Christian music promotion is using the power of video.

Every day hundreds of thousands of people are watching videos online. Even some of the least professional music videos found on YouTube get tremendous exposure.According to an industry blog, labels, managers and aspiring artists are learning that YouTube continues to be the place to discover new musical talent.

You can have no doubt that YouTube has made a lot of people famous who may never have had the opportunity to become discovered.

In the secular world of music, a few notable people have been discovered and are now house hold names.

So who are some of thetop musicians who have been discovered through this medium? Here are just a few:

Arnel Pineda – Once a Filipino singer and songwriter, now lead singer for the rock band Journey.

Justin Bieber – Bieber may be one of the biggest rising stars right now and he’s only 16. My daughter loves this guys music to the dismay of "mom and dad." He is from Canada and was discovered on YouTube by Scooter Braun, who later became his manager. My daughter also loves the fact he moved to Atlanta...

Terra Naomi – This rock and pop artist won the first YouTube "Best Music Video" award back in 2006 with her song, "Say It's Possible. She writes, performs and plays guitar and piano in Los Angeles.

Now, except for Justin Bieber, I personally not familiar with these artist. But I can believe you can use the power of video to promote your Christian music ministry!

I believe with the rising statistics of people online and on social media sites, that there is an incredible opportunity to connect "one on one" with people with your Christian music ministry.

YouTube is a must have for any aspiring Christian music artist.

Facebook with its Fan pages, business and group pages is one other great outlet.

Then you have Twitter and the other rising social media sites.

How do you handle it all if it's just you and no promoter?

Social Media In Ministry Marketing: Focus Part 4

Social Media Marketing Plan: Step 4 For Focus

This is part of a social media ministry market plan focus series:

So we continue on with this series on market plan focus and how improving your focus can play a key role in your business or your social media ministry marketing success.

Step one was to F, fix your eyes on the ultimate destination, your goal. Step two involved O, only spend the most time on those things which produce results. C, was simply to clear your mind of all negative thoughts and replace with clear positive mental maps to that destination desired.

Which brings us to step four.This key provides a solid foundation to maintaining focus to the end. Clearly states, U stands for understanding the need to be steadfast.

Being steadfast means you are fixed in a direction, not easily moved, firm in purpose and faith.

You’ll need to be steadfast to fight the arrows of the enemy of doubt, defeat, and discouragement.

Anything worth your time to obtain is going to have its highs and lows. I'm sure you can remember a valley or peak in areas of your life.

This step will literally help you pull yourself out of a deep pit, if you so happen to fall into despair, doubt, or deep discouragement!

In 1 Corinthians 15:58 is a great verse of scripture to hang onto in regards to carrying out this step:

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.”

When you know God has called you to do something, you have to be rock solid and committed in your attitude. That in itself refines your focus. This steadfastness helps you fight against the enemies attack on your mind, like we discussed about with negative thoughts in step 3.

Being determined to commit to walking out the path to get to your desired destination is a day by day decision. Every day youmay have to re-commit to those things you have determined to do.

One great thing is as you learn to be steadfast, it helps sharpen your focus on what your are determined to see happen...whether in your ministry or personal life!

So make up your mind to fully understand the importance of being steadfast, fixed, rooted, grounded, established, and glued to your purpose, whether it’s for ministry, business, or yourdestiny!

And...don't grow weary. Let the Word sustain you as you hold on to it to keep your head up and your faith strong amidst the wonderful journey to seeing your vision fulfilled!

social media ministry, ministry marketing, marketing ministry, raising money for ministry, marketplan focus

Social Media Ministry Marketing Plan Focus: Step 3 To Success

Step three to the social media ministry market plan focus for business and ministry marketing success is crucial because it has to do with your mind.

Such power is given to us in the mental area. But we have to use it correctly and wisely!

This plan is based on the acronym for FOCUS.

So F is to focus on the destination; O is to work a higher percentage on those things that bring the results; and C is clear your mind of negative and communicate positive it its place.

Romans 12:1 tells us ...”and do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will ofGod.”For some that may mean as simple as to turn the television news off and not read negative headlines in the newspapers for a while! This requires a discipline to stop the negative thoughts. Those negative thoughts often become words which become pictures in your mind.

So when the negative comes you have to say “stop” to it! You have to train your tongue.

For example, when I start to get a headache, I don’t say, “I feel terrible. I think I’m getting sick...”

No! I don’t deny the reality but I speak faith ( I am healed ) to replace the negative. As it says in the Word: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it willeat its fruit.” (Proverbs 18:21)

You might be challenged to learn a new skill, like using social media in your ministry, or start a new venture. Instead of thinking about the times you failed or loss money, you need to say, “I can do this.”A key to clear your mind of the negative is to form a mental map of the positive. This means a picture in your mind where you seeyourself achieving the desired result. The mind does not know thedifference between what is reality or not.

If I see a snake, my mind is going to kick in and I’ll try to get as far away from it as I can. Never mind if it’s a rubber snake my kid’s placed in the yard to scare me. Until I inform my mind it’s not real, I’m going to act like it’s a real slithering menace of a snake!

Power of the Word Of God

Clearing your mind of negative is the quickest way to reduce fear and bring faith. I can think of no better way to do this than by constantly washing and renewing your mind by the Word of God!

Some of my greatest battles in life had to do with fear. When I got to the root of it, I always found the decaying negative thoughts that wanted to destroy my faith.

The battle ground is set. But you have the victory!“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” (2(2 Corinthians 10:5)

“You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” (1 John 4:4)

Market Your Ministry Or Business: Step 2 In Focus

Market Your Ministry: Step 2 To Focus

Market your ministry for online success has to start from somewhere. This series by Theresa Croft, helps you discover five easy steps to begin your business or ministry marketing plan online.

It starts with the word FOCUS!

Focus Defined
The word focus is defined as “a central point, as of attraction, attention, or activity.” I’d like to hone in on the part of definition that involves concentration: to focus one’s thoughts. The mind is an amazing gift from God. As it says in His Word, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.”(Proverbs 23:7)

So the beginning key to having a better focus has to start in the mind.

Well, I love acronyms, so I took the letters in focus and found five central thoughts to improve your focus for success in market ministry, business and life! The first step was focus on your ultimate destination with your business or marketing plan.

Step Two: "O"

Once you know your destination, you are ready for step two which centers on the key that youwork or walk out those things the most that produce the result. In other words, your action has to fit what you desire to see happen.

Once again, take Jesus’ life. He was always about the Father’s business. He came to seek and save the lost. His mission from the moment He came to this earth was set.

That’s why you’ll find Him at 12 years old spending time talking with the religious leaders at the temple. He may have waited until He was 30 to begin His actual ministry, but every step of the way was marked by an amazing focus.

One of my mentor’s, Dani Johnson, a business success coach and
anointed teacher, instructs how 80% of your action should be in doing that which produces the results. For example, if you are in a business where you get paid based on how many people you recruit in your business, 80% of the time should be talking to people on the phone or communicating online to share the opportunity.

From there, 19% should be on training and learning, and 1 % on problem solving. You may be in a business where you get paid based on people buying a product. So, the majority of your time is set to perform those actions to see that people purchase your product. That 80% could be divided up in numerous directions, from marketing to labeling.

If you make money selling cookies, well I hope your oven is hot and your baking cookies!

I think you get the idea.

I love the 19% focusing on training or learning. You could also
mark that as personal development. As Dani says, “The
marketplace pays for value. Your value is your skill or knowledge.”

So you may as well spend a proportion of time increasing that knowledge or learning a new skill.

Spending 1% on problem solving has to be summed up as, “Don’t sweat the small stuff.”

To walk out this might mean you watch less television, play less golf, or cut down on something else that takes so much of your time. It might mean you have to learn a new skill. You may have to
go the extra distance....but with the destination in view, it’s worth it!

The Power Of Being Social Media Magnet

2011-02-11T23:39:00.001-05:00

social media magnet, atlanta social media, social media atlanta, new media marketing,

The Power of Being A Social Media Magnet

Are you a social media magnet?

What is that you say? Simply this. A social media magnet understands the power of setting up conversations on all the social sites to draw them to their home site where their product or service is available.

No doubt, more and more studies are taken to truly understand just how the social media sites can impact business, and the value of being active on them.

I've enjoyed this most recent report from Michael Stelzner, Social Media Marketing Marketing Industry Report.

Lots of valuable information is available for you to truly understand social media in case you think all this "Twitter and Facebook" stuff is a waste of time.

One figure caught my eye. This report reveals that 64% of marketers are spending five or more hours using social media magnet sites such as, Twitter.

Stelzner says, "Social Media Marketing is an engagement with online communities to generate exposure, opportunity, and sales....And the real shocker is that experienced folks are investing more than 20 hours each week with social media."It goes without saying that you don't use these social sites to spam your ministry or opportunity. You share. You serve. You connect. You minister.

Facebook Stats

These Facebook statistics are bound to change soon, but check out the latest Facebook social media magnet facts:

There is more than 500 million active users on Facebook. On any given day, at least 50% of those active users log on.
People spend over 700 billion minutes per month on Facebook.
An average user on Facebook is connected to at least 80 Facebook pages, groups, events.
According to an eMmarketer report, 206 million US internet users. That means 71.2% of the US web audience is actually on Facebook.
Facebook is now the most searched item..passing Google, as America’s most visited website according to a new report.
The fastest growing demographic among Facebook users is...35 to 65 year-old women!
Facebook is where people are spending their time. They check in daily and multiple times a day.

Just the other day my daughter took some of my marketing advice when she off the cuff told me..."Mom, I thanked Billy Rae Cyrus for all his Bible verses in his tweets."

That made me proud.

The other night I watched the powerful Gospel singing duo of Bebe and Cece Winans. They got to talking about Twitter. Cece was teasing her brother about it and then said she saw the power of using it to encourage someone, to offer hope and healing.

Yes, you can do that with only 140 characters!

Social media continues to explode as I re-write this page.

YouTube Explosion

YouTube is now the second largest search engine. People go there every day to look for videos to answer their questions,  show them how to do something,  or review a product or business. I see this in my own house from my son who goes to YouTube to learn how to solve a video game, to my daughter who wants to hear the latest song from a favorite artist.

Many times when I got stuck or was learning something with my Wordpress.org blogs, I go to a video to figure out what I needed to do.

Another amazing fact: YouTube gets over 300,000,000 visitors a month, who watch more than 2,000,000,000 videos.

I could go on with statistics but I think you get the idea.

I have not even discussed the latest stats on Twitter, but I believe you can see how social media has grown.

What does this mean for you? How does this affect your business or ministry marketing plan?

I do believe it's obvious...You may need to scrap the old methods of promotion and bring on the new...new media strategies!

Ministry Market: Step One To Focus

Ministry Market Focus: Step One To Business Or Ministry Success

Ministry Market plan focus for success in ministry or business is an element that is easy to talk about and less easy to define.

What encompasses the word focus? Are there steps to improve your market plan focus so you can experience more success in your ministry, your business, even in your personal life?I’ve been hearing the word “focus” a lot lately as my husband lovingly teases me that I can get going in five different directions and instantly lose focus. One minute I could be helping with the dishes and the next, I end up on my computer answering a friend on Facebook.

Although the kids tend to laugh at me when I sometimes do funny things because my mind is elsewhere (such as put the milk in the pantry instead of the refrigerator), I know it’s no laughing matter in the end.

So I went on a serious journey to define focus and find sound keys to improve it in my life for ministry or business. From the word of God to great teachers in ministry and business, I found some keys that anyone could use to open the door to a greater potential of improving their focus in their life.

Focus Defined

The word focus is defined as “a central point, as of attraction, attention, or activity.” I’d like to hone in on the part of definition that involves concentration: to focus one’s thoughts.

The mind is an incredible gift from God. As it says in His Word, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.”(Proverbs 23:7)

So the beginning key to having market plan focus has to start in the mind.

Well, I love acronyms, so I took the letters in focus and found five central thoughts to improve your market plan focus for success in ministry, business and life!

F-O-C-U-S - Step 1- Fix Your Eyes On The Destination

Step one for market plan focus is to simply fix your eyes (your mind) on the final destination.

Your destination in business might be to start a company, to get a raise, to find a way to earn extra money online, or to learn a new skill. You may want to pay off credit cards or pay off your house to be debt free.

What’s your desired destination in your ministry? It might be financial freedom so you can do what God has called you to without stressing over the provision for the vision. Your desired destination might be to see your family or marriage restored.

Fix your eyes on it! Define it. See it. Believe it. Right it down on paper!

Take this as fuel for your mind...In Hebrews Chapter 12, verse 2, we are encouraged:“...fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Jesus knew his final destination was to die on a cross to fulfill His purpose to restore the fellowship of mankind to the Father. So amidst the attacks, the slander, and the pain, He pressed forward to be about His Father’s business.

Jesus knew his death on the cross and resurrection would result in eternal fellowship and redemption of His people to the Father. This ultimate result only made Him all the more intent to set His face like flint to go to Jerusalem. He was longing for the fellowship of His Father, and desiring YOU to be right there with Him.

That drive toward that destination was alive in Him like fire from the cradle right to the cross. Jesus is the ultimate example of someone having focus!

You’ll be amazed what you can endure when you make your destination you desire in your life a priority.

Firebrand Street Ministry: Being The Body Of Christ

Firebrand Street Ministry: Being The Body Of Christ

by Theresa Croft

Firebrand street ministry involves just one thing: Being a church without walls.

Our heart is for those who need to see “Jesus with skin on.”

“It was better than warming a pew bench’, said Pastor Dave. “Seriously, to reach out to the least of these is an honor.”

Some received what we had to share today and some did not, as we served hot gumbo and sandwiches with coca cola. As Dave and Anna served up the soup with sandwiches, while William gave out cokes, I got to go down the line and shake hands. I looked many in the eye and told them Jesus loved them as I told them there was hot homemade gumbo on the way. Some looked at me and smiled, while others would not allow me to look into their eyes.

After the food ran out, most of the men went away to eat or go their own way. A few hung around and Pastor Dave was able to speak life and a prophetic word.

We even gave one man a ride to his sisters house. His name was Ricky and he shared what happened when he went to church this morning. God spoke to his heart encouraging him he could always come back to HIM.

The purpose of this and the video below is NOT to say, “Look at us”.

All we desire is to see the Body of Christ BE THE BODY OF Christ.

Listen and obey where God is calling you to minister. It might be your neighbor. It might be in your school or college.

Wherever God calls you, He will more than enable you by His grace to walk.

Will you reach out to the least of these?

“Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’

“Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’

4 Strategies For Internet Business Or Ministry Marketing

4 Strategies For Your Internet Business or Ministry To Build Momentum To Make Money Online

Are you one of those people that believe that you just don't have the time to get your internet business or ministry marketing up and running so you can make money online? You are not alone. Many people who email me or I talk to claim they have too much to do and not enough time to do it. They wind up defeating themselves and their business looses momentum and suffers.

Full time jobs, family obligations, maintaining health, and too many other distractions are the main reasons for not building momentum for their internet business or ministry marketing plan. You can wind up feeling that your life is spent catering to every one else's obligations.

If you are a work at home mom, you can add laundry, cooking meals, taxing the kids around town to that list!

If you're a pastor or evangelist, you have so many hectic every day events that seemed to clog your schedule!

However, I have some good news! You can find and maximize time to build momentum for your business or ministry. All you need is to find time and commit to use that time for your ministry or business only. Try the following strategies to make your internet home based endeavor flourish.

Document Your Daily Routine

The first thing you will need to do find a quiet place and write down your schedule. Document the start and end time on events like getting ready for work, driving your kids to school, your commute to your day job, gym time and any other weekly commitments you have. Don't forget to include weekends and family time, or fellowship at your church. (this is most important).

After completing this exercise you should have a good visual of what your work week looks like for your internet business or ministry marketing strategy. You should see openings in your week. Make your goal easy: try to find two hours you can commit to spend on your business or marketing your ministry. You should be able to re-prioritize some time.

Stay with the Schedule You Created and Re-Evaluate

The next thing you need to do is stick with your schedule. This can be tough because you are creating a new habit. I have read that a new habit takes 21 days to become just that, a habit. Once you get the hang of your new routine, you should always re-evaluate your schedule. You may be able to find more time to spend on your internet home based business.

For example, you may have a day time show you really like. All I can say is…"Will watching Oprah help me make money for my family?" This might be harder than you think, but…

You can always record a show and just prioritize the time to watch later…maybe with your husband!

Sticking with your schedule means you need to discipline yourself to work this internet home based business. This means that you have to find a way after work, after little league games, after dinner and after putting the kids to bed.

Don't Forget Your Family!

I'm preaching to myself on this one! I can be so passionate about something, or get so into creating a video, or creating a blog for a client, that I lose my priorities.So, spending time with my family is always a top priority for me. I have two young children who have seen me on the computer enough. I try teaching them what I'm learning. For example, I showed them how

I use my search toolbar to generate revenue and at the same time support the A21 Campaign.

My son calls me his "techy mom".

If you have to use your family time to spend on your business, make sure you communicate with your family so they have an expectation of what you are doing. However, I would recommend that you set a time limit so you can spend that time you want with your family. This will provide balance for you.

Embrace Distractions

As we all know life also throws us off schedule. Try your best to embrace that fact instead of fighting it. If your child stays up late, focus on helping your child quiet down and go to sleep. Try not to focus on what you could be doing. Don't worry. Don't stress. The work will still be there when you are ready.

If you have to stay late at your day job, then choose to work late. Usually, you'll find that it is better just to focus on one thing at a time. You will be more efficient and effective. Having a clear and guilt free mind while working on your business is most productive.

To handle new ideas that can distract you while you are working, keep an MP3 Recorder handy so if an idea comes up you can record it or write down the idea in a notebook. You can always prioritize those thoughts at a later time. You will also find that you are using less energy dealing with distractions instead of fighting them.

Continue With Your Personal Development

Click on the picture of one of my coaches, Dani Johnson, to learn how you can get started with this step!

Finally, find ways to continue to grow in your self development. That is so important. Read books. Find authors and speakers that connect with your heart. Some of my favorite teachers and mentors include Dani Johnson, Stephen Pierce, Doug Firebaugh, Tassel Daley, and Jentezen Franklin. I also use my time in my car to listen to mp3's of training. Many phones today, such as the I-phone, are a internet home based business marketers dream tools. We can listen to mp3's, watch training videos, and really use it as a tool to learn and grow!

As you continue with your own personal development, the passion is stirred or rekindled to keep your vision alive amidst the daily tasks. Nothing like passion to keep momentum going!

Better yet, if you have the time and finances, invest in yourself and attend a seminar. I recommend Dani Johnson's First Steps to Success! I've attended two of them and always came back refreshed and ready to take on the challenges. And I learned so much about myself and what it takes to succeed at her seminars!

So there is good news when it comes to finding time to work on your own

internet business.

Don't despair and don't get frustrated. Just remember that you have total control of your time and you alone can change your habits to build your businesses momentum.

You hold the keys. The doors are ready to be opened for your future. Go forward. Don't look back. And don't be afraid to dream big!

Help Non-Profits & Businesses

One door I have found in this internet home based business arena is helping non-profits, businesses, and ministries generate revenue using the same technology that Google and Yahoo uses.It fits with my passion to consult and teach others how to harness the power of the internet for preaching, promotion and profits.

This is NOT an MLM company.

It is a real world wide business that has a "Global Vision" to provide solutions for businesses, non-profits, and groups.

"OurGV.Biz is your one-stop shop for increasing revenues, decreasing expenses, improving public relations, and gaining access to technologies that would normally cost tens of millions of dollars to develop on your own!"

Discover How You Can Help The A21 Campaign

Discover How You Can Support The A21 Campaign

My introduction to the A21 Campaign came through Christine Caine at Cathy Duplantis' Women's Conference last fall. All it took was watching one video about the facts of the abuse. Then Christine Caine spoke with passion about what the A21 Campaign is attempting to do to fight this battle against human trafficking. Christine's message came with an anointing that pierced my soul and inspired me to continue in my pursuit of hearing and obeying the voice of God to do WHATEVER He asks.

I knew in my heart that that day marked the beginning of my becoming an abolitionist on behalf of victims of this horrible crime.

The facts about this crime are staggering:

Trafficking in women is the second largest global organized crime today, generating approximately US$12 billion a year.
There are 1.39 million victims of commercial sexual servitude worldwide.
Over 25 percent of sex trafficked victims are trafficked from Southern and Eastern Europe.
90% of victims trafficked into EU member states end up in the sex industry.
There is an estimated 20,000 women and girls trafficked into the Greek sex industry, earning Greece the title: "the center of trafficking in Europe."
Tragically, only 1-2 percent of victims are rescued, and only 1 in 100,000 Europeans involved in trafficking are convicted.

Statistics found at the A21 Campaign's site.

How You Can Help

It's one way to share this vision and start to help by raising awareness. It's also a great way to raise support, not by asking for money, but simply asking that people download this tool bar and do their normal searches online.

Ready To Fight?

My husband and I watch the National Geographic shows with our children quite often. We notice how some people risk their lives and are quite passionate about saving the seals, saving the whales, etc etc.

We thought: "What about human lives?"

Whether it's abortion or the child sex trades, someone has to step out and speak on their behalf.

So this is my start. I've drawn a line in the sand. I am willing to be persecuted or challenged in my support of the A21 Campaign's fight against this horrible crime.

The A21 Campaign's Vision

The goal is threefold:

Rehabilitate Survivors

Offering a temporary shelter for victims that will meet their psychological, mental, and emotional needs.
Partnering with government agencies and NGO's to rescue and restore the lives of the victims.

Address legislation

Ensuring witnesses are protected and assisted during the investigative process.
Working to support, develop and change legislation that will ensure traffickers are identified and prosecuted.

Raise Awareness

Developing international awareness of human trafficking
Providing education to potential victims in common countries of origin for trafficked victims.

Christine is one of the pastors and directors of Equip & Empower Ministries, as well as the founder of The A21 Campaign. Together with her husband Nick, and daughters Catherine and Sophia, Christine spends much of the year traveling to reach the lost, strengthen leadership, champion the cause of justice and build the local Church globally.

How You Can Support The A21 Campaign

Human Trafficking is an organized criminal industry that affects every nation. Whilst the statistics can seem overwhelming, it is important to remember that every number represents the life of a victim. The A21 Campaign has recognized a significant need in the region of Eastern Europe, and is committed to combating this injustice through rescuing one life at a time.

The A21 Campaign is comprised of individuals, organizations, government officials, and people like you who are committed to abolishing injustice in the 21st century. Their goal is to raise awareness, take legal action where appropriate, and offer rehabilitation services to rescued victims of human trafficking in order to fight this injustice from a comprehensive approach.

Additionally, they want to branch out to address this issue from a preventative standpoint, aiming to cripple the human trafficking trade so there are fewer victims that need to be rescued.

New Media Marketing: For Business & Ministry Marketing

new media marketing, social media atlanta, atlanta social media marketing, ministry marketing

New Media Marketing: For Business And Ministry Marketing

New Media Marketing is a relatively new concept used by businesses and ministries in developing an online community, which allows satisfied clients to gather and extol the virtues of a particular brand.

In most cases, the online community includes mechanisms involving basic social media strategies including blogs, podcasts, YouTube. Facebook, Twitter, message boards, product reviews and Wikipedia, all of which contribute to a transparent forums to post praises, criticisms, questions, and suggestions.

The North Atlanta Social Media Marketing branch of DTC Online Marketplace firmly believes this new media marketing is the key for businesses and ministries to gain new clients and beat their competition in advertising.The truth is marketing has shifted from a one-way broadcast to a multi-point conversation.

Fact: 97% of consumers use online searches when researching products, services, and even ministries.

One of the primary arguments to promote New Media Marketing in Atlanta is the premise that traditional advertising is losing its influence on consumers. Backed by statistical evidence demonstrating a growing trend of consumers making purchasing decisions off Internet research and referrals. These advocates strongly adhere to the notion that consumers are more inclined to believe feedback from like-minded peers than corporate marketing promos dispersed through traditional television, radio, direct mail, or newspaper advertising.

Although businesses would be exposing certain weaknesses to the marketplace by allowing individuals, or even competitors, to post critical comments, responding with an honest and transparent answer designed around solving the issue at hand may mitigate potential risks.

New Media Marketing is most effectively marketed by Internet-driven technology such as blogs, RSS, Web video productions, and podcasts.

Final Step To Your Focus Market Plan

Below is the final step to our special fundraising ideas report on success in the marketplace.

The final step to a market plan focus for success in ministry or business is the glue that holds the F-O-C-U-S plan together.

In review, the plan centers around the acronym focus. "F" is for fix your eyes on the final destination, goal, or dream. "O" is for only spend the most time on activities that will help you reach that destination. "C" is for clear your mind of the negative and replace with positive. "U" is understand you need to remain steadfast in the pursuit.

Which brings us to "S".

If you get this last step, I truly believe you will be stepping into your destination, your destiny that you were created to walk.

S-Stay Connected To THE VINE

As a believing Christian, this is the life source of your life, being connected to the vine-Jesus.

This means your relationship with God is of utmost importance. For out of that intimate relationship with God, comes the overflow to walk in all wisdom, power, and faith.

As you walk and understand who you are in Christ, you canwalk with confidence to success in your destiny. From Him comes the all encompassing power and wisdom to walk in the anointing which you are called.The Vine-Jesus-is your life source. When you get down, He picks you up. When you’re fainthearted, He renews your soul. When you’re crushed, He is near. When you are weak, your joy in Him is your strength.“I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.” John 15:5

Atlanta Social Media Marketing: Are You Online?

Atlanta Social Media Marketing Group, DTC Online Marketplace, is asking small businesses in North Georgia one simple question:

"Are you online?"

And if not, "why"?

The shift is on from the yellow pages to the internet. From newspapers to Facebook.

The shift is on and this north Georgia company wants you to take advantage!

You can see the Atlanta Social Media Marketing and video marketing proof with DTC Online Marketplace.

DTC Online Marketplace is an independent social media and video marketing business desiring to help local businesses take advantage of the shift in advertising from the “yellow pages” mentality to advertising on the internet.

They introduce the “New Media Revolution” that has come on the advertising seen with entities, such as YouTube. The latest stats show that 26 billion videos are being viewed monthly in the United States, and growing! In addition, online video is more than 60% of all the internet traffic with YouTube being the second largest search engine.

A big part of this new media revolution also involves the rise in smart phones and applications. From I-Phone to Blackberry, there are four times as many phone users than internet users with 33% of phones using high speed data services.

DTC Marketplace shows video proof of their social media and video marketing helping local businesses to take advantage of this media madness.

“It’s no longer a must to have a website only, ” says DTC Marketplace’s co-founder Theresa Croft. “You have to find ways to be where your customers are which means strategic online and mobile advertising.”

Croft shares that her North Atlanta Social Media Marketing company specializes in using the “Five Marketing Marvels” which includes social media marketing with short videos and articles, lead capture and follow up campaigns, local search directory visibility, along with targeted internet ads. DTC Marketplace then utilizes other proven internet marketing strategies which include video blogs, podcasting, smart phone applications, and social media such as Facebook and Twitter.

Croft goes on to ask, “Imagine having multiple listings on page one of Google for your local business? Imagine that listing leading to a quality site that captures your potential clients and customers. Imagine developing a relationship of trust with this group where they not only become your clients but also refer your business to their friends? This can happen with a simple video marketing strategy,” she said.

Is this possible?

DTC Marketplace says yes when local businesses take advantage of the shift today and learn to harness the POWER of the internet.

North Atlanta Social Media Marketing Team: DTC Online Marketplace

North Atlanta Social Media Marketing and DTC Online Marketplace, has noticed the change: The Marketing Paradigm has shifted. Nearly all consumers (97%) now use onlinemedia when researching products or services, ministries or solutions. The misconception is that only young people use these technologies but in fact, nearly all of the buying public now use them.

"You don't have to be a tech wiz to get around on the internet anymore," says Theresa Croft, co-founder of Atlanta Social Media Marketing Company, DTC Online Marketplace. "In fact, the fastest growing demographic of Facebook users is 34 to 65 year old woman!"

Marketing has also shifted from a one-way broadcast to a multi-point conversation. In the past, communications were “broadcast” exclusively through mass marketing channels like radio, TV and newspapers.

Now enters social media!

With social media, however, much of the communication is controlled by the prospects through services like Facebook and Twitter, which have more than 700 million members combined—and YouTube, which gets 300 million visitors a month.

And these members of these social media networks make recommendations for products, services, churches, ministries, and experiences to their social friends online!

You need a knowledgeable expert to help you plan and execute online and mobile marketing strategies with zero extra effort on your part. Review our North Atlanta Social Media Marketing Pages and videos contact us for a no-obligation consultation.
