Diary Of A Christian Entrepreneur

Many of us have rushed into purpose or delayed our manifestation in purpose because of what we call readiness. Some think they are not ready for what God has purposed for them while others think they are ready when God has not yet given them approval. This is often influenced by a biased perception of oneself based on worldly standards or criteria. God does not judge our preparedness by the physical but by His approval.  Jeremiah was a child when He was called but Joseph was tried till he was thirty before ascending the throne. ““O Sovereign Lord ,” I said, “I can’t speak for you! I’m too young!” The Lord replied, “Don’t say, ‘I’m too young,’ for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you.” —  Jeremiah 1:6–7.NLT Joseph went through rigorous training and trials before he was approved to ascend the throne. It is all about divine timing. “Until the time came to fulfill his dreams, the Lord tested Joseph’s character.” —  Psalms 105:19.NLT Samuel was also called as...

If there is one major mistake Christian Entrepreneurs make, it is making business decisions without the approval of God. If this is you, you just signed your business up for long-term failure but it can be remedied if you turn back now. Proverbs 8:33 KJV [33] Hear instruction, and be wise, And refuse it not. The verse above is God calling you to repentance if you have strayed or are about to go astray. It talks about the wisdom that comes from obedience to God's instruction; this is where redemption begins for you. Now, I will need us to understand that redemption does not start from where we realize our need for repentance; it starts from the very first point we made the error of disobeying God's voice. You want God to forgive you, but you don't want to give up the product of your disobedience, how convenient! "Lord, I know this is not the business you told me to venture into, and I am sorry I disobeyed; however, I have already gone far, and I just need to know your w...

What do you do when what started as a strong desire to spread God’s Word and revelation begins to bring you great fame and prosperity? Two things happen: You draw closer to God, or you draw closer to His work. In order not to be a victim of the latter, you must set your priorities right before you even think of coming into the spotlight. Don't let fame and prosperity happen to you by mistake, know where you are going and stick to the plan. It's just like someone who gets rich by mistake. You start something as a hobby for the fun of it, and suddenly, it becomes viral, and the dollars start rolling in, The chances are that for the first few years, you will misuse that wealth and slowly drift from the initial plan and intention. Again, don't let fame and prosperity happen to you by chance. Know where you are going and stick to the plan. There is nothing like circumstance or chance in purpose. God always has a plan and you can only stick to the plan when you know the plan. Tha...

There is no record of scriptures where God states his desire for believers to be just rich. Yes! you heard me right. There is no gospel as such. Why is that? It is simple. God only values the eternal. Every scripture where God states His desire for our earthly prosperity never stands alone. It is always accompanied by an eternal condition for an eternal purpose. "42. For He remembered His holy promise, and Abraham his servant. 43. And he brought forth His people with joy, and His chosen with gladness: 44. And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people; 45. That they might observe His statutes, and keep His laws. Praise ye the LORD." (Psalm 105:42-45) God wants us to be Wealthy, not Rich. Wealth does not depreciate, riches do. "4. Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. 5. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven." (Proverbs 23:...

Let us start with the foundation of this revelation so you understand better. Of course, it's in the Bible. Matthew 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. (KJV) People see you before they see your product. What image of your business are you portraying to the general public? Something has to attract your ideal customer to your product. It can be an emotion or some benefit that they will derive from your product or service. To shine the light of your product or service is to portray an image that best captures not just the value of your offer but also the attention of your audience. One thing light does is to catch attention. It is very noticeable. You might encounter great competition but if you can shine brighter than others, you will pull the right crowd. In what practical ways can I shine the light of my business? Influencer marketing Branding Influencer Marketing: Every business or brand has an ...

Knowing your target audience is key to making sales or getting qualified leads but it is one thing to know your target audience and another issue to know where to find them. The issue of knowing where to invest marketing resources into finding and effectively marketing to your target audience is an issue a lot of entrepreneurs and businesses are still yet to figure out. A lot of people lose a lot of resources on the trial-and-error method of running aimless ad campaigns and discounts. What if I told you there was a way out?  Recently, the Holy Spirit has been drawing my attention to one particular form of marketing, and it may surprise you, but when you are done with this revelation, you will also see the light as I did. This form of marketing is called Influencer Marketing. Surprised? Influencer marketing is any form of marketing effort that employs the engagement of a well-respected individual or brand that has some form of reputation or influence relevant to the product or servi...
