Kingdom Business Association

Many in business are hoping to make it through the day. They want and need a daily cash flow, daily sales, and daily comprehension of what is happening in their corner of the marketplace. While we all recognize the need for daily financial sustenance, Kingdom Business people know there is a daily bread that is even more important.

Rick Joyner, the founder of MorningStar Ministries,  discusses the daily bread and offers some valuable guidance that we can apply to our personal and to our business lives. Read below what he says.

Nov. KBA Conference DVDs and CDs.

God's best to you,

The KBA team

It just takes one match to start a fire, and very often you're the match God is looking for. KBA has helped many Kingdom people in business be affirmed in their callings at conferences, and we've provided encouraging materials on our web site. But we cannot have a face-to-face relationship with you where you live, which is so important for Kingdom people in business. It is up to you to form those relationships. And because you are a Kingdom business person, you have what other Christians in business around you need to help them walk in Kingdom purposes.

Imagine having Kingdom business people near you who will pray with you, give prophetic encouragement, supply creative ideas, and also warn you about potential mistakes. God's economy is not a solo economy. You are called to start a Kingdom blaze where you live, raise up others to their Kingdom calling, and to transform the culture around you.

"How can I do that?" you may ask. "I'm not doing the best in business myself." Well, you can't afford not to. God is calling you to build

Jesus tells us to lay up treasures in heaven, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” (Matt. 6:19-21). So, what does that mean to a Kingdom business person? Should we give up pursuing profits and corporate sustainability?

Many of us have heard of the “7 Mountain Mandate.” It gives Kingdom people a vision for stepping outside the church mountain to reclaim other significant societal mountains such as business, education, family, government, media, and arts/entertainment. We are to reclaim and restore what Satan has claimed as his domain.
So how do you take the business mountain? How do you take the land? Joshua, the leader who took the Israelites into their promised land, gives us a prophetic picture, as recorded in Joshua 23.

I’ve met people who say that God wants them to start a business. They don’t quite know what this looks like or how it will turn out. They want to work for God in some way.

Some people surrounding Jesus asked him a question that is related. John 6:28 records their question: “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God.”

Jesus gave them an answer that many of them did not understand, and the answer may not be understood today by some Christians who want to do things for God.

One year I read the Bible through with the purpose of watching for all the references to business. You'd be surprised what you discover about God and his business plan, etc., etc. The next time you read a passage from the Bible or have your Bible time, ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you about business implications from what you are reading.

For example, I read Psalm 25 the other day. It has some great insights if you are in distress and worrying about your enemies (the competition, the economy, etc.).

John Boneck shares a powerful insight into the story of the woman with an issue of blood.

Just imagine if Jesus walked in the front door of your business and immediately made your business the platform for His ministry. Picture him sitting down in your board room, giving you direction, reaching a multitude of people, and blessing your revenues.

He did this very thing, you know. Luke recorded the incident. Some people may read an account such as the one Luke captured and see it as inspirational or a good story. But it is much more than that. It is a prophetic example of what Jesus will also do today in your business.

A short while back a prophetic friend gave me a word about KBA and my work in it. And, I believe it is a word to many KBA members, too.

He said I, as the director of KBA, was like a farmer plowing new ground. He saw me holding a single plow behind a mule (limited resources). He said I was plowing straight lines (staying in a parallel spiritual path with MorningStar), and that the ground had not been plowed before (ground-breaking work ahead).

Then he said something that really got my attention.
