    Episode 9: Prophetic Ministry in the Marketplace

    This is a recording of an interview that David Vaka from Breakthrough Church International did with me on Prophetic Ministry in the Marketplace. Looking at the differences between the prophetic in the church and in the marketplace. I do get very real with some of the stories of how I have applied the prophetic in the the various real life circumstances that I have been involved in. I do refer to 2 Chairs by Bob Beaudine, if you haven't read that book as yet, here is the link to it: https://amzn.to/3XH3ha2 Here is the story of the Frogs & Lizards that I refer to: Have you ever noticed how differently frogs and lizards acquire their food? The frog sits and waits for the food to come to him. When an unlucky insect happens to fly by, he simply sticks out his tongue and reels it in. If the lizard sat around like the frog, however, he'd starve to death. So he goes out into his world and hunts. Now the frog in this analogy is the Vocational Christian Worker. He goes off to seminary, gets a degree and goes on staff somewhere. Before you know it, ministry opportunities are coming to him and he has his hands full. In fact, when big frogs come to town they have to hide in hotel rooms or they'll be swamped. The lizard, on the other hand, is a layperson. Ministry does not come seeking him out. Instead, he must move around in his environment; assess his sphere of influence; establish friendships; serve people; and, once he has earned the right to be heard, be ready to give an account for the hope that is in him. I think the main problem today in world evangelization is the under-utilization of the lizard. And a big part of the problem lies with the frog. Let's face it, he has a tendency to steal the show. What's more, the layperson looks at the Vocational Christian Worker and says to himself, " I can never be as great as that ." And he's probably right as long as he defines the ministry in frog terms! The lizard needs to know how God can use him as the lizard that he is! And when he catches that vision, when he learns that evangelism is not an event but a process, and when he tastes the joy of seeing a friend find the Savior, he'll never want to give the ministry back to the frog again! If you believe others will benefit from this podcast, it would be great if you could leave a review and share it with others. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Episode 4: A Simple Strategy for Hearing the Voice of God in Business

    While is is great to receive a prophetic word, it is even better to learn to hear the voice of God for yourself. This has been Business Blessing's focus for a long time now, how to connect people to God. In this podcast, I introduce you to the whole concept of 2 Chairs from Bob Beaudine's book: "2 Chairs: The Secret That Changes Everything". This is a must purchase book! (https://amzn.to/3kFzMq5) and his book, The Power of Who (https://amzn.to/3SPHVEJ). The framework for 2 Chairs is all based around 3 Disruptive questions: Does God know your situation? Yes!Is it too hard for him to handle? No!Does He have a good plan for you? Yes! In the podcast I play a clip by Brennan Manning when he tells the story of The Empty Chair https://youtu.be/L5f2QqcRUmQ Plus I share a story about do I get drunk or do I pray from Trevor Hudson's book: Discovering our Spiritual Identity https://amzn.to/3y9MdgG If you have not discovered either Brennan Manning or Trevor Hudson's work, I strongly recommend for you to engage in their writings and teaching. I also talk about our Listening Prayer website www.listeningprayer.com.au and the Listening Prayer Podcast. Each Wednesday morning I host a listening prayer time to help you tp learn how to hear God's voice and to hear God's voice in Community. Thank you for subscribing, too and leaving a review of this podcast. If you believe it is of benefit to someone else, please share it with them. May your ears, ears and heart be attuned to the Father's voice. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
