GrowingProsperity – Why Not Put Angels On Assignment to Help Manifest Abundance in Your Life?
How Can You Put Your Angels to Work?
Growing prosperity is a lifelong process…
that can be helped along the way by putting
our angels on assignment.
Do you put your angels to work or…
have they been on an extended vacation?
God provided angels for us as ministering spirits to serve; so why not let them serve?
Angels – The Ministering Spirits of God
“Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?” — Hebrews 1:14
If you are a child of God, an heir of salvation, then the supernatural beings, angels, the ministering spirits of God are here to minister for you.
The fact that angels are our fellow servants is something we don’t seem to realize. In Revelation 22 an angel appeared to John and he fell down to worship him. But the angel told John, “Don’t worship me, I am your servant.”
The angel also said he is of them which keep the sayings of this book. So if you are keeping the sayings of God’s Book, then the angels are your servants.
Angels on Assignment
Do you realize that angels are listening to the words we speak? What we say has a tremendous effect on what they do.
Many people like to think God is the only one that tells the angels what to do. Angels are called messengers and God does use them for that at times. But sometimes we give them assignments. They are listening to the words we speak in agreement with God’s Word to get their assignment.
If we say what God said, then we are assigning angels to go and cause that thing to manifest. Angels hearken to the voice of God’s Word. (Psalm 103:20) That is why speaking and confessing the Word of God puts the angels to work.
It is when we give voice to God’s Word that the angels will hearken to what we say. If you lay a scripture on your checkbook it won’t cause it to change. But if you give voice to words of promise and begin to confess them, it becomes an assignment for the angels standing by and listening.
Yes, it may take weeks, months, or even years, but rest assured they are working on it.
Sample Confession for Abundance:
‘As I sow bountifully, I reap bountifully. I am blessed coming in and blessed going out. Whatever I do prospers, because I am like a tree planted by the rivers of living water.’
Make no mistake about it: You can give voice to God’s Word and put your angels to work to see that those things spoken by you come to pass and manifest abundantly in your life.
May you put your angels on assignment by speaking the Word of God and enjoy an abundant life of growing prosperity!
Be blessed to be a blessing –
Cheers,

Self-Control Where Are You Now?
Self-Control Where Are You Now?
Self-Control vs. Self-Indulgence
We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to bring you this commercial announcement…
YES, you can say ‘No’ to that temptation that is dangling in your face today!
“Blessed is the man that endures temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to them that love Him…”
— James 1:12-16
When temptation comes, follow Jesus’ example (Matthew 4) and quote the Word of God. Memorize and have scripture verses ready and tell satan to get behind you because ‘It is written!’
Confess empowering verses like:
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
— Philippians 4:13
Keep yourself submitted to God.
“Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.”
— Galatians 5:16
Sin may be fun for awhile, but when it comes time to reap the consequences of the sin sown… well let’s just say the party’s over.
So the next time temptation comes, do fifty sit-ups and…
“Thanks be to God, who always causes us to triumph in Christ!”
— 2 Corinthians 2:14
Have a God blessed day! 🙂
Cheers,
Brenda
How Can Christian Meditation Guide You Into the Secret Place of the Most High God?
How Can Christian Meditation Guide You Into the Secret Place of the Most High God?
Abundant Power is Available when You Meditate on the Living Word of God!
Christian meditation is based on a desire…
to commune with,
to have relationship with, and
to be united in love with God.
Have you ever wondered how some believers manage to dwell in the presence of, in that secret place of, the most High God?
Meditation on God’s Word turns our minds away from the everyday affairs of life and toward Him. Blessed are those who discover and tap into the abundant divine power available in the living Word of God!
Our Place By The Father
There is a place by the Father God for every believer. We need to find our place and live in it. The Word of God tells us who we are, where our place is, and how to live in it. In the presence of God we can be shaped and transformed into His image.
“He that dwells in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
— Psalm 91:1
Through meditation in God’s Word we are able to dwell in the secret place of the most High God.
Christian meditation is at the heart of the Gospel and should also be for every believer. We were created for relationship and love, not only with each other but supremely with God. As believers we are one with the Lord, just as Jesus said “I and the Father are one.” (John 17:21-23)
“That they all may be one; as you, Father, are in Me, and I in You,
that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe
that You have sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me
I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
I in them, and You in Me, that they may be made perfect in one;
and that the world may know that You have sent Me,
and have loved them, as You have loved Me.”
— John 17: 21-23
A Spiritual Connection to God
Christian meditation is way of experiencing God beyond what the mind can grasp. Meditation allows the nourishing richness and revelation of God’s love to flow into the deep places of our heart.
“Be still, and know that I am God.”
— Psalm 46:10
Meditation provides a way to connect into the heart of God’s love and acceptance. It is our spiritual connection to the One who is our heart’s true home. When we meditate on the Word of God, we are able to step into the blessings He has provided for us and experience spiritual refreshment and intimacy with Him.
In meditation, our relationship with God deepens. And as we rest in our relationship, He works His love in our heart, drawing us deeper and closer to Him. As His light shines on us, we become more and more the person we were created to be.
It is no secret: Christian meditation on the Word of God strengthens our relationship with Him and has the power to transform our lives. Begin meditating on God’s Word today, and start strengthening your relationship with Him.
Are you ready to move yourself into the secret place of the most High God through Christian Meditation?
God bless you always,

Christian Meditation – What if My Meditation Time is Not Getting Results?
Christian Meditation – What if My Meditation Time is Not Getting Results?
Insights and Tips into Christian Meditation that Get Results!
Christian meditation –
is meant to be a part of
every believer’s life.
Okay…
So what do we do if we’ve been
meditating on God’s Word,
but our lives still seem to be a big mess?
“Meditate day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written.”
— Joshua 1:8
The Faithful Get Results
God commands us to meditate. So we need to practice it regardless of whether or not we think it is making a difference.
The truth is: If we work the Word, the Word will work in our life and make a positive difference.
We’ve already spent our lifetime making a mess of things and filling our mind and heart with junk. Even if we are not seeing positive results, we should continue to obey God’s instruction to meditate and eventually positive results will manifest.
Have you ever found it interesting that the Bible is full of “suddenly” verses? Meditating daily on the power filled Word of God, sets us up for a suddenly.
Let me tell you, when the “suddenly” hits and the eyes of your understanding are opened, your life will begin to transform. So even if you feel like your meditation time is not getting results – Do Not Stop!
You may just be on the verge of a “suddenly”.
Keep in mind: Christian meditation is a form of worship and it honors God. Our heart should be set on the giving of our time to the Word of God and our relationship with Him first; not with a focus of “how will this benefit me.”
A Powerful Biblical Meditation Prayer
Here is a really simple way to have the Word of God come alive in your life: Pray Ephesians chapter one every day. Write it out on a note card and keep it with you always. Record yourself reading it and listen to it daily. Make it personal and put your name into it.
This is just a snippet (wait until you read the whole chapter):
“…God I am asking You to give unto me the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of You. I’m asking You God, to open the eyes of my understanding, that I may be enlightened, and know the hope of Your calling…”
Do this daily for at least six months. The Word of God will soon become a different book to you. You’ll begin to see things you never did before! At any moment a “suddenly” can happen in your life.
Bottom line: Diligence will eventually be rewarded and obedience does not go unnoticed. Stay a faithful Christian and commit to a life of meditation on God’s Word!
Are you ready to renew your commitment to daily Christian meditation?
God bless you,
Brenda
Growing Prosperity – 5 Prayers to Help Manifest the Abundance of God in Your Life!
Growing Prosperity – 5 Prayers to Help Manifest the Abundance of God in Your Life!
Praying the Word of God Over Your Situation
Growing prosperity comes from God the Great Giver.
He loves to bless His children…
From the earliest of days, God has been searching for individuals who have their hearts toward Him; on whom He can pour out His blessings.
Unfortunately, whenever He has poured out prosperity, the people have quickly forgotten who made them prosper. The tendency is for them to begin seeking the gift and not the Giver.
These scriptural prayers for prosperity are based on the spirit of seeking first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and then enjoying the manifestation of His generous abundance.
Each of our desires, pertaining to wealth and prosperity, cannot be to consume the abundance of God on ourselves, but to understand, just like Abraham did, that all of us are blessed so that we can be a blessing.
5 Scriptural Prayers for Prosperity
1) Angels on Assignment
Thank You, Father, that as I speak Your Word over my finances today, Your angelic warriors are hearkening to the sound of my voice to perform that which I speak. (Psalm 103:20)
2) Prosperity Now
I thank You, Heavenly Father, for this day You have made and I rejoice in it. You are sending me prosperity now and giving me success. (Psalm 118:24-25)
3) Taught to Profit
Thank You, Lord God, that You are teaching me to profit. You are leading me by the way that I should go. Therefore, I declare that because I hearken to Your commandments, my peace and prosperity are like a flowing river. (Isaiah 48:17-18)
4) Reap Bountifully
Father, I confess that because I have sown bountifully in order to bless others, I also reap bountifully with blessings. (2 Corinthians 9:6)
5) Prospering In All I Do
Father God, I declare that because I keep Your charge, walk in Your ways, and obey Your voice, I am prospering in all that I do and wherever I turn. (I Kings 2:3)
So, go ahead; begin praying these prosperity prayers daily. They are meant to help you get started learning how to pray the Word in the area of provision, and help you plant the Word of God into your heart.
Keep in mind: The more the Word of God is planted within us, the more spontaneous our prayers will become. Once you begin regularly praying the Word, you will find that as you are reading the Word, many other scriptures will begin to “come alive” for the purpose of prayer. Get ready now to have the abundance of God manifest in your life.
May you seek first the kingdom of God and enjoy a life of growing prosperity!
Be blessed to be a blessing –
Cheers,
Brenda
How to Prosper and Achieve Incredible Success with the Powerful Skill of Diligence!
How to Prosper and Achieve Incredible Success with the Powerful Skill of Diligence!
This Rare but Powerful Skill is the Prosperous Key to Helping Make Your Dreams a Reality
Prosperous outcomes –
require the use of powerful skills.
How would you like to become one in 1000…
who accomplishes abundant success?
In every project we take on,
as well as every goal we go after,
we will get results anywhere from extraordinary to disastrous.
The Prosperous Key to Making Dreams a Reality
Take a look at the lives of successful people and you’ll see that they have encountered final outcomes in one or more aspects of their lives from this range.
The exception: When it comes to the prosperous areas of their lives, the successful results are from putting into practice the simple, but extremely powerful skill of diligence.
Diligence was the key that helped them make their dreams a reality.
“Do you see a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings.”
— Proverbs 22:29
Thomas Edison, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Walt Disney, Henry Ford, and Bill Gates are just a few of the people who have used the skill of diligence.
Why Do So Few People Fully Utilize Diligence?
The truth is it is a skill that can be learned by anyone regardless of their education, background, or IQ. True diligence is a rare, valuable trait that runs contrary to human nature.
Everyone has characteristics that happen to be part of the human condition. These types of characteristics create our natural drives, tendencies, strengths, as well as weaknesses. Diligence, although, is just not one of them.
Actually, the characteristic universal to all mankind is the desire, or drive, for quick gratification. We desire as much as we can acquire, as quickly as we can acquire it, by using as little work as possible. This is our human nature. Everyone has a natural tendency to pursue the path of least resistance.
“The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.”
— Proverbs 21:5
Thankfully, in spite of this natural tendency, we can decide to undertake a path of greater resistance and grow diligent in the pursuit of every venture, assignment, or goal. And when a person develops this type of diligence, it is possible to achieve incredible success in any significant area of life.
Diligence to Prosper
Diligence is often described as a persistent and hard-working effort in doing something.
Diligence is working at something with persistence in addition to working smart. Doing it right, or to put it another way, doing it on time to the highest possible standards achievable, regardless of what is required or anticipated. It means bringing creative thinking, persistence, and in many cases incorporating other individuals as well as outside resources into the work to achieve incredible success.
Seem difficult and too much to handle?
That is because true diligence consists of numerous qualities. That’s the reason true diligence is extremely rare and hard to find. However, let me just say, you can begin incorporating these qualities of excellence today and start developing the skill of diligence. And you need to know that anybody can develop it.
Why not develop this rare, but powerful skill of diligence that is your prosperous key to helping make your dreams a reality?
Make no mistake about it; prosperous outcomes are possible when we have perfected the skill of diligence. We can make use of it in all critical areas of our lives, in any undertaking or goal; to quickly achieve amazing results. We can make use of it to change lousy careers into great careers; okay relationships into wonderful relationships; and a faltering business into a prosperous one.
May you develop the powerful skill of diligence and achieve a life of growing prosperity!
Be blessed to be a blessing –
Cheers,

What Are 3 Key Mistakes Christians Make When Meditating God’s Word?
What Are 3 Key Mistakes Christians Make When Meditating God’s Word?
Overcome Obstacles that Try to Keep You From Time in His Divine Presence
Christian meditation is a valuable time that opens up truths and leads us into the great mysteries of God.
As children of God we should have a heart to seek wisdom and understanding of the Lord’s ways.
“My mouth shall speak of wisdom, and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.” — Psalm 49:3
There is great wisdom in the Word of God just waiting to be revealed… but we have to do our part to discover it.
When Christians begin to meditate, they often make these 3 key mistakes:
1. Meditation Becomes a Religious Chore
First off, Christian meditation should not be looked at as a religious chore. We should look at it as an exciting time that keeps us blessed, happy, peaceful, successful, and prosperous even in times of trouble; because we are tapped in the power of God.
Once we make it a chore, our heart is no longer in it and we are no longer open to receiving. This essentially defeats the purpose to begin with.
So always remember what a blessing and privilege it is to spend time alone with the King of kings; God Himself. It is a gift to spend time in the power of His divine presence.
2. Lack of Flexibility When Meditating
The second mistake that many Christians make is jumping into meditation with a strict, fixed schedule. This can be a setup for failure if flexibility is not included in the mix.
We all know life is constantly showing up with the unexpected. And unfortunately, an unexpected interruption in a strict meditation routine will become an easy excuse to stop meditating all together. Allow yourself to be flexible with time and method, especially when getting started.
3. Failing to be Consistent When Meditating
The third mistake is failing to be consistent in the long run. Meditation can be practiced in different forms. So start with one or two ways that feel comfortable for you. Begin with a simple method and schedule that will allow you to be consistent.
The goal is to make meditating God’s Word a habit. That way, the Word of God will be built up in us and help us stand strong when the storms of life blow through. It is not about waiting to meditate as soon as a need arises in our life.
If you are a believer that has not yet made meditation a regular part of your life, well there is no better day than today to get started. If you are already meditating on God’s Word regularly, then keep at it and be consistent. The more time spent in meditation the easier it becomes.
In conclusion: Meditation enables us to purposefully take the time to draw near and make a connection to God. Do not let these common mistakes get in your way. We are well rewarded for the little effort meditating takes!
Are you ready to commit to daily Christian meditation in the empowering, living Word of God?
God bless you,
Brenda
A Majestic God – Psalm 8 Christian Meditation Video
A Majestic God – Psalm 8 Christian Meditation Video
A great video reminder by bluefishtv of how majestic our Lord is!
“O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth!
who have set your glory above the heavens.
Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings have you ordained strength
because of your enemies, that you might still the enemy and the avenger.
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;
What is man, that you are mindful of him?
and the son of man that you visit him?
For you have made him a little lower than the angels,
and have crowned him with glory and honor.
You made him to have domininion over the works of your hands;
you have put all things under his feet:
All sheep and oxen, yes, and the beasts of the field;
The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever
passes through the paths of the seas.
O LORD our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth!”
— Psalm 8
God bless you,
Brenda
