Activating Your Personal Faith To Receive 25 Biblical Principles For Releasing The Power Within

Author Rich Brott notes that ¿faith¿ is a choice, an act of the human will. It is a deliberate choice to place confidence in God and His Word. Unbelief is a sin because it is a deliberate choice to withhold confidence in God and His Word. Faith is a receiving of the truth, an embracing of the truth, and a commitment to the God of truth! And commitment always produces action. That is why faith without works is dead. With no action there is no commitment. With no commitment there is no faith! In this book, you will find 25 faith-building principles that will enlarge your capacity to receive the very best that God has to offer you.

God is interested in our willingness to manage and administrate all that He has given to us. Nothing will be thrown into our laps. Financial prosperity is not an unconditional providential blessing; conditions are attached. We are to take action and be proactive. The abilities and giftings God provides motivate us to action. Sometimes it takes our persistence in doing the same things faithfully with the heart of a servant. Other times it is time to try new things, new methods, and seek new opportunities. Sometimes the steady plodding brings the success of the blessed life. Many people, deep in debt and lacking in self-discipline in their spending and contentment level, complain that their employers don't pay them enough, their taxes are much too high, their business costs have skyrocketed, or render some other excuse why they cannot plan for their financial future. Of course, some of these excuses may have a certain amount of legitimacy to them, but they don't excuse a person from the responsibility of making sure that they are not wasting any of the resources God has allowed to come through their hands. The problem is rarely a lack of money; it is a lack of money management. Money management simply means self-management. This book will help the reader to re-align their financial attitude so that can begin to fulfill their potential financial altitude.

Economic entrepreneurship has a history of success in every area of the world. It has sustained families, cities and nations as it has created employment opportunities and economic growth. Your success in business will be determined by your commitment to gain, learn, understand, and implement knowledge, experience, ability, opportunity, capital, commitment and do it all with great business passion. Success is a planned event and rarely happens without great personal effort. Maximizing your business success means that you are effective, productive and efficient. Never give up! In other words, trying and failing is a risk one must bear in order to be able to succeed. Success is in turning failure into an opportunity. Failure is not your enemy. Successful people see failure as a seed; the seed of success.

Author Rich Brott notes six themes that are mutually dependent upon each other, each of which represent a necessary requirement for a successful business. They are, Knowledge, Experience, Ability, Opportunity, Capital, and Commitment. When it comes to business failures, the stats are not pretty. Within the first year of operation, over 50% of businesses fail. Extend the time period to five years, and the statistics become even worse. In that time period over 95% of all businesses fail. From the beginning, business is risky and chances of success poor. But you can significantly improve your chances of success with good insight, preparation and planning. The author notes that in this book he wants to help you in the area of establishing your business and will do so by leading you step-by-step through these critical areas.

Business focus is an integral part of your ability to advance and build your business into something beyond mediocrity. Staying focused on your vision and purpose is very key. Nothing significant is ever achieved without focus. If it's worth getting, it must be the focus of your attention at all times. Focus begins with a sense of purpose, mission and vision. This is your sense of direction, your road map, your life track for the business. It's where you are headed. A growing company does not continue without great business productivity, timely follow-through and effective leadership. Advancing a Successful Business is not automatic and will not happen without a steady hand at the helm backed by a great team who stays alert and motivated.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Have Anything You Really Really Want! is a thought-provoking study about the power of positive thinking and the Christian faith. It follows the authors own personal journey of faith and discovery as he details how his Christian faith unleashed a positive powerin the attainment of personal, even material goals (including the acquisition of university degrees and a Rolls Royce!), but more significantly in the realisation of far-reaching goals: the discovery of his wife and ultimately the transition from university professor in South Africa to successful hotel-owner in Scotland. An important lesson in the experience of mid-life change is seen in the close dependence on Gods love and boundless supply for all needs, material and spiritual. From establishing an objective, working out a strategy, and using faith and initiative, this detailed thesis explores the essential principles for personal success and achievement and guides the reader step-by-step through the practical process of attaining his or her goals. In the final analysis, however, it asks whether it is the individual, or the invisible hand of Providence, which engineers the successeven to the extent of changing ones original goals, and changing oneself in the process.
