3 Biblical Ways to Support Your Ministry Financially: Financial Support, Funding for Ministry

Posted on January 15, 2014 by SoSpression

Jesus was a carpenter, and Paul made tents. Both Jesus and Paul established new churches. When you are bringing progress to the Kingdom you can’t always join an established well paid, well endowed ministry. New wine needs new wine skins. You have to go establish the Kingdom where God sent you.

The key is to do it Gods way (working with your hands i.e. a natural business or job, or establishing new churches that will support your ministry) not the devils way – (partner with the wicked to do your ministry.)

So to summarize: there are three (3) biblical ways to support your ministry (including family, which is your highest and most important ministry ) financially. Two are from God, and one is from the devil.

1. Work with your hands, in a job or a business that has a natural product that does not affect anyone spiritually. I.e., the carpenter or a tent maker. Do your ministry separately.

2. Minister to and Raise support from believers and churches, or build new churches that will support your ministry.

3. Partner with the wicked, join them in ministry, and claim that you are advancing the kingdom. Biblically, this is what you do if you are a false prophet and greedy for extra gain.

You have three options, and they all work pretty well – which ones will you choose?

The only way you choose #3 is if you are too lazy and prideful to work with your hands on a natural job, or too lazy, prideful and greedy to minister to churches or start new churches that God may have called you to start.

If you choose the right ways to provide for your ministry and your family – you, your family, and your entire generation will be much better off both naturally and spiritually.

God moves in strong to transform circumstances when He sees obedience.

Leader or Adulterer? Make a Decision.

Posted on January 15, 2014 by SoSpression

This is for Christians constantly impressed by the world: If you can’t make a decision which direction you are going to lead people in, what kind of leader are you?

Answer: You are a double minded and unstable adulterer (man) or adulteress (woman). You cannot be a deacon or deaconess if you are an adulterer or adulteress. Spiritual leadership is too precious and powerful.

James 1:8
A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

James 4
4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

Adulterers and Adulteresses: friends of the world and enemies of God. Their worship is worthless because it’s not exclusive.

That’s like me romancing my wife, then romancing other women that are beautiful. Thats grounds for divorce naturally and spiritually. Beauty doesn’t determine romance, covenant does.

Double Minded Christians Be Like:

“These is my all time favorite preachers and teachers:

Farrakhan: I ain’t sayin I agree with what he be sayin, but you can’t deny the skills!

The Dalai Lama: that dude is cold… praying in the mountains!

Jim Jones: he had all them people willing to die for absolutely NOTHIN! That’s leadership right there.

David Koresh: he fought to the end, and all his wives was strapped!

Sum Young Moon: his leadership skills were unparalleled, that colony he had was sweet!

Mother Theresa: She’s the first Christian I really liked, she was cool… You know, I don’t really listen to a lot of Christian leaders”

A double minded man is unstable in all his ways… It sounds funny when we apply it to preachers and teachers but many Christians do the exact same thing when it comes to singers and musicians and actors.

No Man Is Greater than His Prayer Life – Leonard Ravenhill

Posted on January 15, 2014 by SoSpression

No man is greater than his
prayer life. The pastor who
is not praying is playing; the
people who are not praying
are straying. We have many
organizers, but few
agonizers; many players and
payers, few pray-ers; many
singers, few clingers; lots of
pastors, few wrestlers; many
fears, few tears; much
fashion, little passion; many
interferers, few intercessors;
many writers, but few
fighters. Failing here, we fail
everywhere.~

Sometimes God’s Love is in Reproof, Correction, and having NO Fellowship.

Posted on January 14, 2014 by SoSpression

Mature believers understand that Gods Love is covenant love, and covenant love is obedience and faithfulness.

Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

No fellowship. Reprove. Are we being obedient? Are we willing to reprove someone in love? Are we willing to have no fellowship with someone in love? Obedience is love. The love of God comes first before the love of man.

REPROVE – Definition:
to convict, refute, confute
generally with a suggestion of shame of the person convicted
by conviction to bring to the light, to expose
to find fault with, correct
by word
to reprehend severely, chide, admonish, reprove
to call to account, show one his fault, demand an explanation
by deed
to chasten, to punish

Wannabedown Christians

Posted on January 11, 2014 by SoSpression

It’s utterly amazing how people that are not even walking with God actually know what they are doing is wrong and will testify that their works are evil, but wannabedown Christians will do the same thing and lie to themselves to justify it as being right… When the sinner is more prophetic than you are it’s a sad sight.

John 7
7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.

Easy Way to Get MERCY & GRACE from God

Posted on January 11, 2014 by SoSpression

An easy way to get mercy from God is to admit you were wrong by confessing your sin and forsaking it.

Proverbs 28:13
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.

An easy way to get grace from God is to let go of your pride, admit you were wrong, and be humble and obedient.

James 4:6
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

Perhaps Jesus ate with sinners because they were repenters… After all, that was His main first message right? ‪

Perhaps His first message was repentance because He wanted to pour out mercy and grace on humble people who had confessed and forsook their sins?

So if you preach mercy and grace while avoiding repentance are you of the spirit of truth or error? Are you leading people to God or to yourself?

People that preach grace and mercy but refuse to confess or forsake their sins or humble themselves, obey God and admit they were wrong – are the worst of both worlds. They are false prophets, lying preachers, twisting grace to pass sin and spread iniquity.

If you really preach mercy and grace why would you hide the way God dispenses it?

You Need to Get a RELIGIOUS SPIRIT!

Posted on January 9, 2014 by SoSpression

What does GOD say about Religion?

Pure and undefined Religion

James 1
27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

What does God say about Traditions of Men?

Mark 7
13 making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

Yet people will follow the traditions of men but stand against what God calls PURE AND UNDEFILED RELIGION?

It’s so funny people will support a church or an entertainment ministry where they don’t have to be a disciple of Christ or be a house of prayer, all they have to do is give MONEY and DANCE… A church stuck in tradition… An entertainment ministry stuck in the world.

But then tell you that you have a “religious spirit” because you love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength – which is the first commandment. Because you keep yourself UNSPOTTED from the world. Because you care for the poor instead of have respect of persons and cater to the rich.

Holiness is a Strength not a weakness. The Holy Spirit has power. Traditions of men don’t.

So I say this: YOU NEED TO GET A RELIGIOUS SPIRIT!

Not the religion of man’s traditions and entertainment. But PURE and UNDEFILED Religion before the Father.

Some People’s Passion for JESUS is Bigger than their Passion for their own Reputation

Posted on January 9, 2014 by SoSpression

I only sow the things I know I want to reap, and I only judge the way I desire to be judged…

So if you ever see me teaching lies, corrupting the purity of the Bride of Christ, or leading people into lukewarm mess and leading God’s little lambs away from their true Shepherd.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE:
Rebuke me.
Teach me all the scriptures you possibly can.
If I’m doing it publicly, then correct me publicly.
Try to stop me.
Message me.
Write prophetic doctrine and testimony against what I’m doing.
If i don’t stop, Tell people not to support me.
Do everything you can to lead people back to the heart of God.

I don’t care about my name brand or PR I care about Gods people being who they were created and redeemed to be.

I only care about truth, what else are here for other than to manifest the love of God and fight for the KING? I’d rather be corrected than catered to.

I don’t want to be condemned for leading people astray, so if I’m wrong, let me know!

James 3
3 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. 2 For in many things we offend all. If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.

That word “offend” does not mean you hurt someones feelings. That word “offend” means you cause people to stumble away from the path of obedience to God.

Some peoples passion for Jesus and His Pure Bride is bigger than their passion for their own reputation.

Covenant Love Defined

Posted on January 8, 2014 by SoSpression

Covenant love is personified in faithfulness.

We give pure love desire and obedience to God in return for His desire and passion for us. He did whatever it took, so I do whatever it takes.

The day you find your success in this type of love and obedience is the day you start to walk with God.

The day you start to justify success by human eyes, is the day you leave God behind.

God Embraces Abraham after Abraham Messes Up
Genesis 17
1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.

Enoch walked with God
Hebrews 11
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
