God is on the move and doing amazing things in this earth! He continues to draw the body of Christ together in unity for His purposes. People may not be aware of all or see all that the Lord is doing but He truly is “CONNECTING THE DOTS”.

THE MOMENTUM OF THE WFJ GLOBAL MOVEMENT IS BUILDING UP SPEED. The dam is about to break free and there will be undeniable evidence of God’s hand moving on His People. THE YOUTH WILL PLAY A BIG PART IN THE AWAKENING THAT WILL COME FORTH!

Upon awakening this morning I received a WFJ (Word From Jesus). It was just in time and so appropriate for the second webinar of three taking place at 8AM today. Dr. Joseph Peck was hosting the Words From Jesus: How To Hear God’s Voice Webinar. Today’s topic was “The $14,400 Miracles!” The guest panelists were Doug Barclay, Bob Sims, and Bertha Hinson. During this life-changing, world changing webinar, they shared what Dr. Peck considered to be their BIGGEST GOD STORY FOR THE PAST SEVEN YEARS!

Without knowing what was going to be said today, this is what Jesus spoke to my heart. It’s so amazing how He is always right on time and right on target!

WFJ: SEEDTIME AND HARVEST

Now is the time of seedtime and harvest. I AM MOVING IN THIS EARTH IN UNUSUAL WAYS. I am the Lord of the Harvest. As long as the earth remains there is seedtime and harvest. I am planting My Word in the hearts of My people worldwide and they are speaking it out and it will bear much fruit. I DO NOT COMPROMISE MY WORD. It does not return void and it is accomplished.

MY WORD WILL BRING BILLIONS OF SOULS INTO MY KINGDOM. The Great Commission is going forth. I am also calling My people to sow financial seeds to bring in this end time harvest. SEEDS SOWN IN MY NAME FOR MY PURPOSES WILL REAP A GOD SIZED HARVEST. SPREAD MY WORD. SPREAD YOUR GIVING AND PARTAKE OF MY GLORY.

I bless you and invite you to enter My joy in the name of Jesus!

Your soon coming King!

Love in Jesus,

Webinar Details

• Title: The $14,400 Miracles
• Series: Words From Jesus: How to hear God’s voice
• Date/Time: Saturday December 12, 2009, 8 am EST
• Facilitator: Holy Spirit
• Host: Dr. Joseph Peck
• Panelists:
  - Doug Barclay: Regional Director in Partner Relations for Operation Mobilization (OM USA)
  - Bob Sims: Visionary of visionaries; Estensive business and ministry experience
  - Bertha Hinson: founder of Beauty From Ashes TV and His Gateway
  - Abigail Slocum: founder of God Whispers

In October 2002, I first met Doug Barclay at a Fellowship of Christian Athletes retreat at The Cove in Asheville, NC. As a result of our discussion, Doug left his full-time job in sales to pursue full-time ministry work with Operation Mobilization.

Through a most peculiar series of circumstances, I was eventually prompted by the Holy Spirit to sow an UNCOMMON $14,4000 (12 x $1,200) seed into Doug’s life in February 2003, which was my largest financial gift up to that time. It so happened this was the exact amount (to the dollar) Doug needed to begin work with Operation Mobilization and he began his new job on 03-03-03. Coincidence? I don’t think so. Numbers are significant to God.

An UNCOMMON seed always yields an UNCOMMON harvest. An UNCOMMON seed is one inspired by Holy Spirit for a God-sized result.

Here is what we covered …

TEAM DESTINY

“By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit;” (John 15:8a)

P.S. At the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders in the U.K. earlier this year, the primary word received was “no more business as usual.”

P.S.S. Do you sense a nudge to sow a $14,400 seed into God’s billion soul vision? If so, please call Dr. Joseph Peck (540-547-4240).

The LORD is doing a marvelous work in me to SIMPLIFY my life. Be blessed and encouraged as you read this message from my heart to yours.

On Sept 18, I left home for an 11-day road trip, including a 3 day conference (seminar) at the Ritz Carlton, Tysons Corner (VA), followed by a week vacation in Utah.

The “More Leads, More Clients, More Sales” live seminar hosted by Bernadette Doyle on Sept 18-20 was outstanding. I spent a whole weekend with five Internet Marketing superstars and about 12-14 guests in a small group setting. During these 3 days, I learned more practical things to launch my business (ministry) forward than I have during the past 3 years. Amazing!

One of the guests was Brian McFadin, who is the founder of Unleash Your Spirit. When I gave Brian one of my custom postcards with my favorite life lessons about simplifying your life and being still, he offered to email me quotes he had accumulated about STILLNESS. Yesterday, I pasted those into my journal and began reflecting on them. They are powerful and offer a broad perspective on the subject. See below.

Early on Sept 21, Julia and I flew to Utah for her to compete in the Xterra National Triathlon Championship. Xterra is the leader in the world hosting off-road, long endurance triathlons – swim, mountain bike, and run.

We experienced extraordinary FAVOR during our entire trip. For example, it rained most of the week in Utah before our arrival, but while we were there, every day was sunny with high’s in the low 70′s to 80′s. Two days after we left, it snowed. Every day, God connected us with extraordinary people and we experienced the wonder of His creation. The views and scenery were spectacular.

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights (James 1:17)

While journaling early in the morning on Sept 22, the day after my arrival in Utah for our vacation, the LORD told me to free up my Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays to give me a 4 day weekend every week to allow me much more time for rest, reflection, revelation, prayer, and meditation on the Word of God. My goal is to be STRATEGIC and create MARGIN to bear much fruit for the Kingdom.

God is restoring the 4-day weekends I enjoyed while working 3 years at Giles Memorial Hospital until December 2006. Why? So I can focus on the BIG PICTURE. See “WFJ: Randy, write the vision down!”

What action step(s) can you take today to begin simplifying your life?

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, I praise You as the God of love and favor. Thank You for the awesome privilege of being in relationship with You, the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. The heavens and the earth declare Your glory. Thank You for the privilege of experiencing the majesty of your creation in Utah. Thank You for the health that my wife and I enjoy. Bless those who read this message with understanding and wisdom on how to be STILL to experience You in fresh and exciting ways. In Jesus name, I pray and give You glory, now and forever. Amen and hallelujah!

Blessings to purpose to BE STILL to experience God in fresh and exciting ways!

Stillness and Quiet List of Quotes
Source: Brian McFadin, Founder of Unleash Your Spirit

1. Meantime within man is the soul of the whole; the wise silence; the universal beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related; the eternal one. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

2. Stillness within finds stillness without as the framework through which all activity occurs. Breathe deep and full. Relax always. Grace unfolds from within to dance about in joyous recognition. – Rob Campbell

3. The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, and his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. – James Allen

4. Enter into the stillness inside your busy life. Become familiar with her ways. Grow to love her feel with all your heart and you will come to hear her silent music and become one with Love’s silent song, the Song of Songs. – Noel Davis

5. There is more to life than increasing its speed. – Mohandas K.Gandhi

6. To do great work a man must be very idle as well as very industrious. – Samuel Butler

7. The equivalent of external noise is the inner noise of thinking. The equivalent of external silence in inner stillness. True intelligence operates silently. Stillness is where creativity and solutions to problems are found. – Eckhart Tolle, “Stillness Speaks”

8. At your very core you are stillness and silence – pure unbounded consciousness. In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you. – Deepak Chopra

9. Be still and know that I am god. – The Bible, Psalms 46:10

10. Questioning whether you’re on the right path may sound easy. The difficult part is hearing the answer. Your head will have one response, but your heart may have another. Fear may urge you to maintain you current direction, yet love may urge you to take a turn. You must quiet your mind to hear your highest calling. You must open your heart to find where love resides. If you choose to follow you passions and desires, then you must be still enough to hear the answers from your soul. Walk out only as far as you can stand with your head above water and the scenery will always look the same. Dare to venture into deeper waters and a magical world awaits you. – Debbie Ford

11. Go within every day and find the inner strength so that the world will not blow your candle out. –Katherine Dunham, Dancer and choreographer

12. We know more about god by what we do not say than by what we do say. – St. Thomas Aquinas

13. I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope, For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting. Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought: So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing. – T.S. Eliot {The Four Quartets}

14. When we honestly ask ourselves which persons in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. – Henri Nouwen

15. It is when we feel quietness deep within us that we know we truly understand, and it is this kind of understanding that can have a strong, positive effect on our lives by leading us to right action. – T.K.V. Desikachar, “The Heart of Yoga”

16. Sometimes more silence is useful. – The Dalai Lama

17. True Silence is not the absence of sound. True Silence is the absence of ‘Self’. – Bhante Ananda Maitreya

18. In the quietness we come to simply realize that – whatever ‘It’ is – It’s just a ‘Thought’. – Bhante Ananda Maitreya

19. Just sit in the stillness and watch what arises. – Patricia Walden

20. Break through the world of ‘worldly’ words so that The Flower of ‘Just Being’ may bloom. ?Just allow yourself to become suddenly still, inside and out, so that you may pierce through the thin shell of the ‘world’ and now fill the entire cosmos with a truly free mind. – Ji Aoi Isshi (13th Century)

21. The universal field of awareness underlying our individuality is imperceptible. Its very nature transcends sensory experience, and therefore our mind can only infer the presence of spirit. We can experience spirit directly, however, by going beyond our mind through the silent spaces between our thoughts. To connect with spirit, we have to go out of our conditioned mind. – David Simon

22. The danger is we won’t just sit there, we’ll do something. – Fareed Zakaria, Foreign Policy Expert

23. Do not speak – unless it improves on silence. – Buddhist Saying

Randy, good morning to you. Thank you for meeting with me first thing this morning. Thank you for your attitude of gratitude and heart to praise Me. I AM the God of peace. I AM He who weeps with those who weep. I AM My Spirit. I AM gracious. I AM the forgiver of all transgressions. I AM the manna that came down from heaven.

Randy, yes, that was Me who just spoke to you. I want You to do a teleseminar interview of John Paul Jackson. I want you to start doing weekly teleseminars or BlogTalkRadio shows with Christian celebrities. That will create tremendous attraction marketing. These leaders will be interested in what you do. I also want you to start weekly teleseminars with Pastor Baker Rigg. He wants to move forward with Web 2.0 technology. I want you to start going to his weekly worship and prayer gatherings on Monday evenings. I AM raising you up to raise up a new standard of prayer in your community.

Randy, it is Me who is making you smile. I AM smiling down upon you. My favor is upon you. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad. I AM the God of your salvation.

Randy, right now, I want you to paste your notes from the Utah trip into your journal. Enjoy. Be blessed. Receive what I AM giving you. I AM your protector. My favor will protect you from your enemies. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad. I AM smiling down on you. With you I AM well pleased.

Randy, what you have done with the 6 new people in the Prosper Now 777 course is huge. You and your team have helped them load their own space shuttles on the launching pads and now their rockets are firing to launch them forward into their destinies. That makes Me smile. I have blessed you to be a catalyst to release My UNCOMMON favor into My children’s lives. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad. I AM smiling upon you.

Wow Jesus. What great encouragement. Thank You. I love You so much. You are the reason I breathe, move, and have my being. You are my morning joy. You are the delight of my days.

I AM your God of promise. I AM returning. I AM He who places your tears in My bottle in My book. I AM God who shows you things to come. I AM the seven spirits and they are Me. Me secrets are with those who fear me.

Randy, it was Me who led you to listen to the I AM – 365 Names of God this morning. I wanted to remind you who I AM and who you are in Me. Victory is here.

Randy, I want you to follow up with the Chamber prospects today. I want you to go to the Culpeper lead share meeting this morning as Chris’ guest. Taste and see that I AM good. I AM the LORD; he who is joined with me is one spirit with Me. I AM the spirit of counsel. I AM your provider. I AM tenderness. I AM the true shepherd. I AM the dispeller of all fear and doubt. I AM interceding for you right now. I AM love.

Randy, write the vision down! You asked me what your $15,000 BIG TICKET offer is to be. I’m giving that to you now. It’s very simple. You see, to see the BIG PICTURE, you have to stop cutting down trees, step back, and see the whole forest. Then you must stay there continually. Begin with the end in mind. To develop STRATEGIC ALLIANCES, you must remain a big picture guy. Delegate away everything that someone else can do. I have blessed you to be a visionary for visionaries. Your target audience is My visionaries, people with large networks, and those with global visions (people who want to impact the world for Me). Period. Don’t focus on others.

Randy, the name of your BIG TICKET retreat (offer) is “Achieve A 30-60-100 Fold Increase In One Year (12 Months).” For anyone to do this, including you, he must begin with the end in mind. Live your dream lifestyle now and work backwards to how I will support that. Randy, eliminate all appointments on M, W, and F. Don’t check emails on those days. When people learn they must wait to have access to you, they will value your time. Start planning date weekends with Julia. You have the RCI options. Your intimacy with Julia will improve dramatically when you follow the 4 P’s of giving (your time) in the book “Fields of Gold” – Priority giving, Percentage giving, Progressive giving, and Prompted giving. You see, these principles apply to all areas of life, not just money.

Randy, you asked Me to give you the slides (messages) for your 3 minute PP for your $15,000 offer. I’m going to give that to you now.

I want you to start writing down the names of people who will want to come to your $15,000/person retreat. – [names are begin kept confidential on this blog]

What distractions do you allow to get in the way of giving the firstfruits of your TIME to Jesus each morning?

Yesterday morning I sent out my first YDB devotional in more than 3 weeks. That was prompted by an inspirational email received from Renato Amato, from Bracciano Italy. In my message I shared briefly about Renato, one of my top connections for 2009.

Yesterday afternoon, Renato and I had our our weekly coaching call over the Internet. Wow!!! While I’m supposedly the one doing the coaching, it seems I’m the one receiving the most coaching as I learn so many valuable life lessons. I’m coming to appreciate the tremendous UNITY (oneness) that Renato and his wife Patrizia enjoy. Those are the kinds of people I want to hang around.

Renato’s blog has quickly become my favorite one ever. That says a lot. Renato is the only person in the world I know who is posting his two-way journal entries daily on his blog. He calls his daily messages WFJ = Words From Jesus.

Renato’s message this morning titled “The first fruits of your time” is outstanding and reminds us of fundamental truths of tithing the best of our time each day in relationship with Jesus. It’s so easy to make excuses and start days doing things for Jesus instead of listening to Him.

CLICK HERE to read Jesus’ message to Renato this morning.

Incidentally, I highly, highly recommend subscribing to Renato’s blog. This will bless you, your marriage, and your family. And while your at it, why not let your friends know about Renato’s blog too?

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, throughout history and the Bible, You have desired an intimate relationship with Your children in which they prioritize their time spent with You and with ears trained to listen to Your voice. Thank You that Renato is modeling this intimate relationship for others via the web. May Renato’s example be contagious. Thank You Jesus. Amen.

“I AM the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.” – John 10:11

On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your practice of STILLNESS?

In December 2006, I stepped away from the highest paying, easiest, most enjoyable anesthesia job of my career in obedience to the Holy Spirit to make 2007 a sabbatical year.

On December 30, 2006 the LORD gave me my theme verse for 2007 – “BE STILL … and know that I am God.” (Psalm 46:10a).

On January 1, 2007, I began a 21 day fast. On the very first day of that fast (and sabbatical year), the LORD gave me a song — “BE STILL.” That was the only song I received from the LORD that year, so I figure it’s quite significant.

Also on January 1, 2007, I sent a YDB devotional to my followers titled “Be Still.” In that I wrote: “Today begins day #1 of my sabbatical year – a year of rest. Each year since 2003, I have chosen a theme verse for the year. Until just two days ago, I was asking God to let me know His choice for a theme verse for 2007. After watching the “Be Still” DVD on December 30, I immediately knew my theme verse for 2007 is “Be still and know.” That is God’s message for the entire world!!!”

CLICK HERE  to read the rest of that profound message.

This morning (May 26, 2009) while I was journaling, Jesus told me to record the song “BE STILL” and post it online. So I did. Enjoy!

 
Prayer Power
Jesus, we praise You as the God of stillness. Thank You for my practice of being still to know You – the great I AM.

Blessings to BE still and know!

Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path. (Psalm 119:105)

How can you empower your life story?
Will you commit to meet with Jesus daily?
When and where are you going to start?
How long are you going to meet with Jesus each day?
What resources do you need to meet with Jesus?

I’ve had a Wow! morning. God is so good! I’ll share part of the story this morning and more tomorrow. If you need encouragement today, read on.

Yesterday at Soul Purpose Church, Pastor Matt preached a message titled “My Life Story Empowered.” He shared that you’ll never know you’re soul purpose until you meet Jesus and then meet with Jesus daily. Key scriptures were Psalm 119:105 and Exodus 33:7-17.

Matt first addressed the question “How do I meet with God?” and then laid out these 4 simple steps

1) Opening prayer – preparation (confess sin) and permission (“Whatever You tell me to do, I’ll do.”)

2) Read (or listen to) Bible. According to Hebrews 4:12, the Word of God is living and active (if you let it be). According to Henry Blackaby, “The Bible is not something that leads to a connection with God; It is the connection with God.” Matt pointed out that while the U.S. Constitution is often referred to a living, breathing document, it’s not really. But contrast this with the Bible.

Matt answered the question “Where do I start in reading through the Bible?” by recommending John, 1 John, Luke, Acts, Romans, then Genesis in that order. What a great suggestion.

Matt’s answer to the question “What am I looking for as I read?” was SPACE PETS = Sin to confess, Promise to claim, Attitude to change, Command to obey, Example to follow, Prayer to pray, Error to avoid, Truth to be believed, Something to thank God for.

3) Journal – meditate and record answers to these questions:
a) What did God say to me? (Which of the SPACE PETS really got my attention today)
b) Why did God say that to me today?
c) What am I going to do today because of what God said to me? (What needs to change?)
d) With whom can I share what God said to me today?

4) Record your response prayer. Commit to follow what He has shown you today. Praise Him for who He is. Thank him for what He has done.

Then Matt did something that every preacher would benefit from. He gave each person 10 minutes to actually practice what he taught using Psalm 1. As I read that Psalm, I underlined “meditates on it (the Word of God) day and night” as my one Command to obey. I made the commitment to spend an hour each morning and night in My Secret Place reading the Bible and praying for specific people on a written list starting that evening.

So yesterday evening before I went to bed, I read all of 1 John out loud in our home. That resulted in a rocket launch this morning. Be sure to catch tomorrow’s message and opportunity.

Jesus, thank You that every day each of us has the opportunity to meet with You by reading your Word with an open mind and an open heart. Thank You for helping me write today’s message. May those who read it be doers of Your Word, not just hearers. We bless You. Amen and hallelujah!

So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the LORD of hosts.’” (Zechariah 4:6)

What is your soul purpose?
What one habit can you establish to discover that?

The LORD has really been working in my life on how best to COACH and bless those he has placed in my sphere of influence. With all the people I know and who ask for my help, it’s not really practical for me to coach people one-on-one. I have come to the conclusion that God wants me to coach people in groups of 15 and 1,000.

Since journaling is the lead domino for my life and I do more journaling than almost anyone in the world, God has prepared me to teach others. Therefore, coaching others to journal effectively will be my primary focus. As a physician and LIFE coach, I have a desire to positively impact the WELLNESS of leaders, businesses, and communities. Using the web to exponentially multiplying people who journal well will be one of the main ways to accomplish this.

In the past year, God has connected me with several UNCOMMON Destiny LIFE coaches. One is Dr. Jerry Graham. Another is Ben Stewart. As certified Lifeforming Leadership Coaches walking in our destinies, we will lead groups to COACH people to discover and fulfill their own destinies.

Through my extensive journaling (now on the computer) over the past 7 years, God has coached me to get in alignment with my assignment to fulfill my destiny. Now I’d like to share some of my experiences and methods with you to COACH you to journal in UNCOMMON ways to experience breakthroughs in your life. Discover YOUR Destiny!

Take a step toward discovering YOUR destiny and REGISTER TODAY for one of these FREE webinars titled “UNCOMMON Journaling for Breakthroughs!”

These classes will be led by me and Dr. Jerry Graham, one of the top LIFE Focus coaches in the world. Each student will be taught and expected to journal every day. After 35 days, journaling will become an enjoyable, steady habit. Jerry and I will be coaching student regarding LIFE Focus. Seize this UNCOMMON Opportunity!

We have had a very good response from the first two webinars we already did.

I like what Bill Gates (Microsoft) says, “If we don’t act on a good idea within 24 hours, we are less than 50% likely to ever act on it. If we haven’t acted on it inside of days, then we are less than 2% likely to ever act on it.”

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, I praise You as the Master Coach with Master Plan. Thank You for coaching me to this point where I can now coach others in small groups to discover and fulfill their soul purpose. I pray that many people on my devotional list will choose to reorder their priorities and seize this UNCOMMON opportunity to participate in one of these upcoming journaling webinars. Thank You Jesus. To You be all glory, honor, and praise! Amen and hallelujah!

UNCOMMON Journaling for Breakthroughs

Blessings to seize this opportunity to discover your soul purpose!

“ASK, and it will be given to you; SEEK, and you will find; KNOCK, and it will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7)
 
What question can you ask God today that will result in a breakthrough? 
 
In my devotional on May 9 titled “Letting Go and Letting God,” I mentioned that Ben Stewart is one of the top Christ-centered business coaches in the world. Ben taught me recently that there are 5 characteristics of a well-functioning team. At the foundation of these is trust. I was originally connected to Ben through Jerry Graham who has been my top mentor in the past year. In January 2008, Ben and I began sowing regularly into each other’s lives. Ben has now joined Jerry as one of the top coaches and mentors in my life.
 
On April 29 during our Marching Through Culpeper weekly prayer conference call, Virginia Morton said, “I’ve been thinking about Randy all this week. Randy has helped me get a new website and blog going. Randy is someone who seeks – he seeks constantly. He never gives up. So our key word for this week is “SEEK.”" This was Ben’s second time participating in these powerful prayer calls.
 
The next morning, Ben began formally coaching me in business on a weekly basis. During our Holy Spirit inspired coaching session, Ben asked a series of powerful questions. During our discussion, I shared that journaling is the lead domino for my life. It is through this extensive time of rest and reflection that revelations are birthed and people, ideas, and resources are connected.
 
During this coaching conversation with Ben, a light bulb went off that journaling is not only the lead domino for my life, but for my finances as well. Out of our discussion, a new series of weekly webinars is being birthed to coach people to journal in such a way as to experience breakthroughs in their lives. My very first journaling webinar will be at 7 PM on Tuesday May 20. More on that later this week.
 
On Saturday May 10, I had an awesome start to my day. Here is the first part of my journal entry for that morning:
 
Good morning Father. My spirit is leaping for joy as I listen to Songs of Zion while journaling. Thank You for waking me up early this morning to give me one of the most profound revelations of my life – ASK! That is my keyword for today.
 
Jesus, You instructed and promised in Matthew 7:7 (and Luke 11:9), “ASK, and it will be given to you; SEEK, and you will find; KNOCK, and it will be opened to you.” The three key words are ASK, SEEK, KNOCK.
 
Holy Spirit I hear You telling me very clearly, “Ask the LORD a question each morning.” I hear You saying, “To close deals, ask prospects questions. Don’t be a teller. To be the greatest salesman in the world, ASK questions. BE A COACH in all relationships, including in my marriage, with my children, with my family, and close friends.” Ask email subscribers questions through surveys.
 
What I read last night in Dan Stratton’s book Divine Provision is jumping out at me right now. “The gold is in what you hear. You will start hearing about opportunities and about needs that you may be able to meet. Do not get yourself trapped by the same person every week… and do not be the same one every week concerning someone else.  If you want to stumble across opportunity, you must be an excellent listener. There are some who never get the gold nuggets because they want to talk about how smart and successful they are.”

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, we praise You as the God of questions and the God of answers. Thank You for the revelation this past week to ask You one new question each morning. Thank You that when the Holy Spirit inspires the question, You are quick to answer. Bless my readers to receive and apply today’s message. Thank You Jesus. Amen.

Blessings to ASK inspirational questions to God and people!

but exhort one another DAILY (Hebrews 3:13a)

What would a healthy daily routine look like to you?
Have you written that down?

Yesterday’s webinar (web seminar) with Rev. Ron Davidson was awesome. What he had to share spoke so strongly to my spirit. Several times while Ron was sharing, my eyes flooded with tears. Ron has the heart of Jesus to serve the poor. While the group attending this webinar was quite small, every person was deeply impacted by what Ron had to say based on survey results. Every attendee made a commitment to make a donation to Gleaning for the World to benefit Operation Rescue Liberia.

Ron says, “A vision is not a business plan. In fact most visions if written as a business plan would not make sense. A vision is from God for the purpose of reaching people with Gods love so God’s receives the glory. A vision is not normal and is uncommon.” That message really spoke to me since my growth goal for my current Implementation coaching course is to develop a business plan for my web company.

Last night I went to bed at 10:30 PM and set my PDA alarm for 5:55 AM. Wouldn’t you know it, the Holy Spirit woke me up at 5:54 AM to formally begin my morning quiet time. This was less than one minute before my alarm went off. Mind you, it was dark and I had no clue what time it was.

While lying in bed and listening to my scheduled iTunes playlist for the day, the Holy Spirit gave me an instruction to make a slight but profound change to the wording for the gorgeous poster image on my computer desktop. JJ Phillips, my anointed graphics artist, designed that.

What was this profound yet simple change in wording? “The secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine!” became “The secret of my future is hidden in my daily routine!” While this may seem insignificant to many people, the change was huge because the message became personal and I see it every day when I come to my computer. The Holy Spirit made it crystal clear to me that my simple desktop image and scripture is His business plan for me. To see this gorgeous custom image, visit today’s Link of the Day.

God has given me a huge vision and I won’t fulfill it by planning in detail. The Holy Spirit refuses to be put in a box. He’s much too great for that.

Prayer Power
O Holy Spirit, soul of my soul, I do adore thee. Thank You for enlightening, guiding, strengthening, and consoling me. Open the eyes of my readers today, speaking to them Spirit to spirit, to have them understand and apply today’s message to their own lives. Thank You Jesus, my King and my Redeemer! Amen and Hallelujah!

Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.
(Psalm 1:1-3)
