We live in a fallen world and because of the state of this world things are going to go wrong. Being a Christian does not exclude you this, it just gives us the means to respond better in the situation when it happens.
We need to live in the real world and not have our heads in the clouds thinking that just because we went through our prayer of salvation, that life is going to be a bed of roses. Jesus said when praying to the Father: Joh 17:15 I do not pray for You to take them out of the world, but for You to keep them from the evil. This is the reality of life, we all have a choice to live with the attitudes of this world which are governed by Satan or to live with a heavenly mentality, which is directed by the Holy Spirit. When you have a heavenly mentality, when things go wrong, you do not fall apart, but you respond and you are able to do this by applying the word of God to the situation e.g. You have a working knowledge of Romans 8:28 and Jeremiah 29:11 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. For I know the purposes which I am purposing for you, says Jehovah; purposes of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. You see, when you have a working knowledge of those two scriptures the way you deal with situations completely changes. That does not mean to say when unsuspecting things happen, that the initial shock is not there, but it does mean that you get over the initial shock quicker and then start operating in Faith, Hope and Trust for the situation. All of this stems out of a real relationship with God. Most times many people only go to God when they want something and not to give him anything. That is why it is easy to get prayer requests but not that easy to give praise reports, giving God and God only the glory for the victory in various situations. However when you have a daily walk with God, you are aware that he is also by your side and NOTHING can separate you from his love (Roman 8:35-39). And because God love us, he will: Protect Us, Provide for us, Healing us, Shield us, Direct us, Teach us, Warn us, Show us, Forgive us, Correct us and Establish us. He is our El Shaddai! (All sufficient one!) To be a Christian, is to be living a life of victory, being an over comer and we overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of Our Testimony. (Rev 12:11). This is way our lives should be filled with joy, and joy is completely different from happiness, happiness is dependent of happenings where as joy springs out of a inner knowledge of who God is. That is why the bible says: Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength. ( Nehemiah 8:10) Parallel Principals When we are building this business, we have to live in the real world and the reality is, people are going to say NO to you, they are going to be NEGATIVE about your business. They are going to say NO to your product and they are going to be NEGATIVE about your product. However, when you know what you have in your hands, you will be able to deal with the negativity a lot better. If you do not learn how to deal with the negative, your career building a Reliv business will be very short. People live in ignorance and many times they let their ignorance stop them from even opening their eyes to look, but for those who do, their lives get turned around. Remember we are only the messengers, we cannot control the response of the ears that hear the message. That does not stop us from giving the message though. The system allows us to gain the confidence to deliver the message of Reliv and that is why we need to build our businesses within the system. Your success in this business is going to be a direct reflecting on your actions and your relationship to the system. So everyday be consistent with your actions to build your business and learn how to use the system in to most effective way. ******************************************************************* Jason Gregory Mentor to people in their health and finances www.visionarys.ws ********************************************************************
