Faith Community Podcast

The success you desire to create through your endeavors is created with words of faith. Yes we need to put in work, but success created God’s way starts with words.

I have been guilty of this many times. Here is the story: God gives me an idea. I start implementing it, and then I run into some challenges. At this point, I throw up my hands and say, “God is going to work it out.” However, it crashes and burns. Did God let me down? No. The problem is that “God is going to work it out” is not a strategy for success. God needs us to plan.

We hear many stories of successful non-Christian businesspeople in the news, and every now and then, we hear about a few Christians who have achieved success in business. Why does it seem like secular people are more successful in business than Christians? Well, the reason is that they have fully committed to their worldly system of success, whereas many Christians in business are wishy-washy. They try to do business God's way mixed with worldly principles, which is a recipe for frustration and failure.

Pastor Amos and attendees tackled a range of topics centered around faith, authenticity, and resilience. Sonja, who founded "Christ Conquers Cancer," grappled with appearing on a secular podcast, but Pastor Amos encouraged her to embrace authenticity and bring light to that podcast. Alicia and Pastor Amos highlighted the significance of engaging the secular world and witnessing to non-believers through spiritual influence. Celine sought advice on pricing her consulting services and staying confident in her value, while Stephanie shared her journey of self-discovery and aligning her calling with her services. Balancing coaching, ministry, and financial sustainability emerged as a challenge, and the group offered support to Alicia in navigating this path. Josica's struggles with narcissistic abuse and impending eviction brought forth discussions on resilience, practical help, and accountability. Throughout the episode, the group rallied around faith, encouraging each other through biblical examples and shared testimonies.

Success hinges on understanding the type of calling God has given you. Has God called you to establish and lead a ministry or a business? Confusing ministry with business can hinder your success in both. Let's delve into the differences and nuances between these callings to help you discern God's unique calling for you.

When we experience failure in life, if we are not careful, we can harden our hearts towards God. This is dangerous because a hard heart cannot have faith, which is the force by which we receive success from God. In a very real way, a hardened heart towards God blocks your success in life and in your calling.

God sees the end from the beginning. Thus, He has already seen the needs and challenges you are currently facing in your life and calling. Since God is good, He has already equipped you with everything you need to turn your current situation around. When God calls you, He equips you to win.

Does it feel as though you're on a turbulent roller coaster ride with the vision God has provided? Hold on, because victory is on its way. Even God's dream for humanity encountered bumps along the road, and it's not over yet. Just like God, we will triumph in the end.
