Digg it UP - The Responsibility of Blessings
All things considered, word of mouth is still the most important means of marketing any product or service. Word of mouth is created by getting your product or service in the hands of people who will appreciate it and will talk to friends and associates about it.The best way to get people talking is to give your product or service to key individuals — talk-show hosts, columnists, celebrities, and chat-line addicts — who are going to mention it to many people, who will mention it to even more people.With the right product or service, the more you give away, the more you end up selling. I have now spent approximately $40,000 giving away over 12,000 copies of my books. There is no doubt in my mind that this has played a big part in helping me to sell hundreds of thousands of my books.But let me not dwell on my own case because I have one that is much better. A few years ago, Marlo Morgan self-published a book called Mutant Message Down Under. Three years later, Morgan had sold 270,000 copies.This is a remarkable figure for any self-published book, but the most extraordinary fact was Morgan had given away over 90,000 copies of her book in three years. She donated the copies to prisons, women’s shelters, and other institutions.Giving away almost o
Every Sunday at our church we say that confession, but we need to be in line with the word before we can walk in it. Then you can say that confession, which is reminding God of His promises to you and your obedience to Him, and He is legally obligated and faithful to fulfill it.

Philippians 1:4-5.
Fellowship here is a type of partnership. The Philippians from the first time they heard the Gospel want all of it. They went after every bit of it with their whole heart. They supported Paul in his ministry to proclaim the Gospel.
They were in fellowship with him, they were sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit to pray for him, and for his success in leading others to Christ. They also supported him financially.
Philippians 4:10,14-19
They were walking in love toward all, praying for Paul to sow the Word and reap the fruit and it was their fruit as well as Paul’s. They prayed for him, were lead by the Spirit to intercede for him. In times of dire straights they supported him financially.
This support of Paul was a sweet aroma, an acceptable sacrifice to the Lord, And God supplied all their needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Research has shown that about 70% of those diagnosed with cerebral palsy were affected by damage to one or more areas of the brain during the fetal development process itself. The other 30% of sufferers are estimated to have experienced brain injury during the birthing process. While it is muscles that are affected, the abnormalities that characterize cerebral palsy originate in the brain. It is the brain that controls the complex interactions between the brain and the nerves in a smooth and coordinated way. A brain affected by cerebral palsy has problems controlling these interactions.There are four documented types of cerebral palsy. Spastic cerebral palsy, Athetoid or dyskinetic cerebral palsy, Ataxic cerebral palsy, and mixed forms with symptoms of one or more type. The most common causes of cerebral palsy are breech presentation, complicated labor or delivery, low birthweight, nervous system malformations, maternal bleeding or severe proteinuria, maternal hyperthyroidism, seizures in the newborn and doctor errors. Symptoms in a newborn may include difficulty in breathing, low birthweight, delayed development and mental retardation. The sad part is that there is no cure for cerebral palsy. Once damaged in this manner the brain cannot recover. At the most the patients can
Blessings are not miracles. Miracles are temporary, just for you, and can occur in unbelief. Blessings Keep us out of crisis, 2. Blessings are abundance for you. 3. Blessings are abundance so you can be a blessing. 4. Blessings require responsibility. 5. Blessings are eternal.
Deut. 7: 9 Covenant God with those who love Him and keep His commandments.
Matthew 22:37-40 Love the Lord your God with all your heart soul and mind.
Ezekiel 36:26-27: New heart, new spirit.
John 15:12 Love one another as He has loved us.
When you are saved and Spirit filled you have God’s Spirit dwelling in you and you want to follow His commandments. It is the new Covenant God promised and fulfilled. He not only gave us a way for salvation but a way to walk in it - the infilling and guidance of the Holy Spirit. Salvation is the doorway to the walk. Baptism in the Holy Spirit is the power of the walk. Walking in love toward each other is the key.
In today’s society we are a “gimme gimme” generation. A really good example of this is the lottery. You put in a dollar and hope you win a million. Many Christians look at God’s blessings in the same way. They give a little - the control of their life, their time, their talents, their money and expect god to give back in abundance. It doesn’t work that way. Too many times we center on what we want and not what God desire’s from us. Total devotion and love, our worship and trust. Complete fellowship with Him.
As believers we are joint heirs and as joint heirs we have promises from God he is legally, covenant bound to honor. A covenant is a legal agreement. It is a 2 party agreement. Each party has to keep his part of the agreement. Too many times believers want God to keep all of his part and they only keep a small part of theirs. That’s not how it works.
God is faithful- He keeps Covenant as we read in Deut 7. His Covenant with us is the most sacred form of agreement there is. God will keep his end. You have to keep yours. The key to everything is God’s love!
John 3:16 For God so loved the World. God loved us so much He gave that whosoever believed!
Salvation required an action.. You had to accept his gift of love in faith unto salvation and eternal life. It is the same with all the Blessings.
Psalms 1:1
Keys: walks not, delights in, meditates then prospers.
Proverbs3:5-7
He won’t direct your path if you lean on your own understanding.
One of the major ways we love and worship God is with our tithes and offerings. Under the Old Covenant the tithes were used for 3 main purposes. To support the Levites, for the upkeep of the temple and to help the poor. Let’s talk about this in light of the New Covenant. Let’s first look at stewardship. A steward is a business manager in today’s terms, He manages the money and property of another.
Luke 12:42 We are stewards of what God has given us.
We are to be faithful stewards of all God has given us.
Our time - are you giving time to God?
Our family - Are you leading them in the paths of righteousness?
Our Home - Is it a Godly home?
Our talent - are you using the gift God has given you to further the Gospel?
Our money - Do you render unto God what is God’s.
Tithing is one of our responsibilities in this covenant agreement. It carries many blessing but also many responsibilities. We don’t give in a legalistic manner, out of duty or obligation. This is not a cheerful giver. We give because we love Him and want to acknowledge His love, generosity and Covenant agreement with him. We worship with our tithes and offerings.
It is not a “gimme gimme”. God will fulfill His part as we fulfill our part. Not when, but as! It is an obedient mutual exchange of love and blessing. We bless, adore and worship Him and He Loves and blesses us! It is a give, give situation. Not a give and take situation, with God giving and us taking. We are to love God - no matter what!
Mal.3:3 Return to God, don’t rob God, pay tithes and the doors of heave will be opened. Jesus told us to render to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s. God’s part is the tenth, it was Decided way before Moses, when Abraham paid the tenth to Melchizedek. I don’t believe that part has changed. Paul tells us to decide in our heart what to give and give it cheerfully. All this leads back to fulfilling God’s commandment to love Him and each other. When you walk in love, trust God to be faithful in keeping his covenant, you don’t have to worry so much about the return.
Luke 6:27. "But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28. "bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. 29. "To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. 30. "Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. 31. "And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise. 32. "But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33. "And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34. "And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. 35. "But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Highest. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil.
36. "Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful. 37. "Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. We so many times just use the last verse and there is so much more to it. Yes, give and it will be given to you But!!! look at the preceding verses.
God’s Covenant is not a cafeteria of blessing - where you choose what part you’ll keep and then tell God what part you need. You are responsible to do what He expects and asks. Our first and most important responsibility that should pour out of our new spirit is spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We should be fervent in supporting this aspect of the ministry. We should support our local church, Our pastors and teachers, apostles and evangelists, missionaries, and reach out to the poor as the Word tells us to.
True fellowship with God is a totally giving attitude expecting nothing in return expect the promises of God. We have the right to expect God to keep his Covenant, but we have to keep ours. I think this is why so many people fail in their believing for the meeting of needs. So many times, I hear people say “I pay my tithes for years and nothing has really changed.” But are you worshiping with your tithes, are you looking at what your responsibilities are. Are you being judgmental, are you walking in forgiveness, are you giving at the church, helping at the church. Or are you coming on Sunday mornings and answering the altar call time after time for someone to pray for you a job, a raise, etc.
Every Sunday at our church we say that confession, but we need to be in line with the word before we can walk in it. Then you can say that confession, which is reminding God of His promises to you and your obedience to Him, and He is legally obligated and faithful to fulfill it.

When doing an interview there need to be at least three people involved. The person being interviewed, you, the interviewer and someone to work the camcorder. It could be argued - I would so argue - that an extra person to handle the sound is a great benefit but this is a policy of perfection.Interviewing for video is a skill that can be acquired with practice. The key to successful interviewing is research, research and yet more research.Before you interview a subject you need to know as much as possible about the person you are interviewing.And you need to read everything that anyone has ever written about the subject.This is what the Internet is for. Typically it contains everything written in recent times.The more information you can get, the more research you do, the smoother the interview will go.Having said that it is vital that you, the interviewer, both asks questions and knows when to shut up.The problem is that often you will find yourself knowing more about a subject than the person you are interviewing, and the temptation then is to show off your knowledge.This is fatal.The viewer is not interested in your views. It is the person being interviewed – the interviewee – who should be the center of attention. And

The word motivate means to urge, excite, drive, to have an over whelming desire to accomplish a particular goal. If you want to build a successful business, you must have some motivating factor that will help you reach your goal.MONEY AS A MOTIVATORMost of the thousands of people who enter the mail order marketing business each year are motivated because they think that they are going to make huge amounts of money. Needless to say 98% of these people are disappointed.If money is the only thing that interests you about going into a mail order business, you are headed down the wrong road. I understand very well that being in business is about making money. However, making money is only a part of being in business. Money is necessary to keep your business running but it’s just a part of the big picture.Money is the reward that you receive for the product or service that you offer to those who need what you have to sell. The important thing is to offer your customer the best product or service that you can. If you are going to make money in this business you must have customers who are willing to do repeat business with you.If all you are concerned about is making money, the quality of your product or service may not be up to the highest standard and if

You've probably heard it a hundred times...affiliate marketing is a great way to make money online.What if I told you affiliate marketing was basically unethical or that the field is dominated by shady practices?You disagree?Well let's explore affiliate marketing from the merchant, affiliate and customer viewpoints.Affiliate marketing is a revenue sharing partnership between a web merchant and one or more affiliates, where the affiliate is paid a commission for referring clicks, leads or, most often, sales to the merchant.The affiliate signs up to the affiliate program via an online application form, receives an affiliate link, and can then promote the products and services of the web merchant via his own website, ezine, pay per click search engines or other advertising means.The affiliate's role, then, is to introduce the potential buyer to the seller acting as a kind of middleman.In return he is paid a commission of any sales resulting from referrals.But haven't we always been taught to cut out the middleman where possible?Well, yes, but in affiliate marketing the customer pays the same price regardless of whether he arrives at the web merchant's site directly or via the affiliate's link.Or at least that's how it

Let me leave you with a few thoughts. Love God with all your heart. Walk in love toward your brethren and your enemies. Worship with your talents, time and tithes and offerings. Expect and trust God to fulfill His part of the covenant because you have fulfilled yours.
Do you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior? Do you want to be a joint heir with Christ? If so, I urge you to earnestly pray the following prayer.
Dear Heavenly Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus. Your word says, “…and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.” (Jn.6:37),
So I know You won’t cast me out, but You take me in, And I thank you for it. You said in your Word, "whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.'' (Ro. 10:13).
I am calling on Your name, So I know You have saved me now, You also said, “…that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.” (Ro.10:9,10).
I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. I believe He was raised from the dead for my justification. And I confess Him now as my Lord, Because Your Word says, “… with the heart one believes to righteousness…” and I do believe with my heart, I have now become the righteousness of God in Christ. (2 Cor. 5:21),
And I am saved! Thank You, Lord! I can now truthfully say, I see myself as a born again child of God! Glory to God!!!! Amen
