ARE YOU A PERPETUAL CONSUMER OR A PRODUCER?

Shopping is one of the biggest "fun" words in the 21st century. Everyone loves to shop, from kids to adults, boys and girls, men and women alike. 

 The truth is, someone somewhere has produced 'a good' or 'a service' that you and I are gladly subscribing to. Now the service is so impeccable that all we see is the feeling we have and the satisfaction we derive everytime we pay for such service(s); If only we also know that the person behind that idea IS GLADLY PUTTING THEIR HANDS IN OUR WALLETS AND TAKING OUR FINANCIAL RESOURCES AT OUR SAY SO. 

The question is are you a consumer or a producer? 

A consumer is one who goes to the market place and enriches everyone. From the UK, he financially empowers someone in the US, Asia, Australia depending on what he or she is shopping for. 

A producer is one who puts out goods and services out there for him to be financially empowered by those in his locality and abroad. The truth is, the world is designed to be balanced economically by the producer and the consumer. A producer of a service is probably a consumer for another.

For instance, if you are going out this morning...you have to look good. So, you paid for the toothpaste idea, paid for the toothbrush, paid for your shower gel, paid for your  cream, paid for your shoes and paid for the clothes you put on. I guess, you are even thinking I need some more clothes, a possible change of wardrobe. Can you see how much you have paid to look good? Don't even want to talk about your lunch (for those of us who eat out). 

The question is WHAT ARE YOU PRODUCING? 

Who is gladly PAYING YOU for your idea (goods or services).

Stop short changing yourself, you have been enriching everyone else but yourself. It's time to go to the market place with a new vision. It's time to consciously decide how much you will be paid today, this month, this quarter. 

STOP BEING ONLY A CONSUMER...it's time to be a PRODUCER. 

I have good news for you, EVERYTHING SELLS! Oh yes! EVERYTHING SELLS! That idea is not too small, that idea is also not too big...start taking steps. 

If you start nothing you will become nothing! 

...then Isaac sowed (produced) in that land, and received (people paid him gladly) in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him. Gen. 26:12

God blesses Producers more: Abraham (a producer), Isaac (a producer), Jacob (a producer), Joseph (a producer). 

Do you want to be blessed of the Lord? Start Producing 'something'. 

Till when next you visit this blog...BE A PRODUCER!

PUT YOUR HOUSE IN ORDER 3

Something significant happened to Israel on their way to Canaan. As they began their Exodus from Egypt to Canaan, Israel WAS NOT a Unified entity. 

"...and the Children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot...and a MIXED MULTITUDE went up also with them..." Ex. 12:37-38 (KJV Paraphrase are author's). 

One nation, one God, possibly one goal but not necessarily a UNIFIED ENTITY. 

The "Mixed Multitude syndrome" is a syndrome that always attempts to follow you into your Canaan.  

Jesus knew his mission was to die, but when the time drew close, the "mixed multitude syndrome" kicked in...he said "Lord if it be your will let this cup pass from me" but he later realigned to the assignment and went all the way to the crucifixion. 

Believe it or not...there is "this hold" your past circumstance (success or failure) will always have on you...and sometimes, it certainly affects your new journey. It's a hold that affects the order in your paradigm.

God told Gideon "the men you have are too much,  now, ask THE FEARFUL to go back home". With a few more tests, 33000 men were reduced to 300 men. 

Even Abraham had to let Lot go for him to make progress...and it was after Lot separated God began to speak to him to enlarge his perspective. [Gen. 13:14-15]

Who is in your team?

Have you been carrying 33000 men for a task that will require just 300 men?

You have known them for long does not necessarily mean they are relevant to your assignment.

There is nothing wrong with synergising and partnerships but sometimes you also need to know the battles that are exclusively meant for you-Yes, JUST YOU!

It's time deal with your own mixed-multitude! It's time to Put Your House In Order. 

You will not fail!

Good morning and Happy New Week!
