OUR CHOICES MAKES US WHO WE ARE
If you see a man standing on Mt Everest, Know for certain that he didn’t fall there. There has never been a man or woman that has accidently graduated from college. None of us woke up one day and realized we were who we are and where we are at.
Success doesn’t come because you are lucky. Miracles don’t come to us by mistake. Salvation is not random. Freedom doesn’t come uninvited. You ask, What is my point? Who we are, where we are at this day in our life is from a series of Beliefs and Behaviors we’ve adopted whether consciously or unconsciously aware of it.
Whether we premeditated, planned or orchestrated our actions and our behavior has brought us to where we are and who we have become. No one accidently becomes a success or a failure. NO, God doesn’t decide who succeeds or who fails – WE DO. God does NOT decide who gets saved and who gets lost, WE DO. “It is not the will of God that any should be lost but that all come to repentance” (2 Pet 3:9). “It is God’s will that you be healed” (Mark 1:39-40).
It is our faith that makes us whole (Mark 5:34). It is our faith that saves us (Luke 7:50). It is our faith that gets us access to God (Rom 5:2). It is heresy to slander God in saying that GOD makes people sick, GOD causes people to suffer or GOD makes people go to hell without their choice. It is a lie against God to suggest that God causes EVIL to happen to people without their choice or behavior.
My Point is that if we are ever going to enjoy salvation, we must “repent and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15). If we want to change any aspect of our life it will be by design. It will be from a set of teachings, Songs, Movies, Friends, Associations, Books we read, and Influences that WE receive by our will, whether consciously or unconsciously. Our choices make us who we are and where we end up in life.

HERE IN IS LOVE
I Jn 4:9-10 In this was manifested the love of God toward us. 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us.
I was raised in a home where my daddy didn’t express very much emotion or shown love toward my mother; at least not in front of me. I grew up without the affection made manifest. There was very little outward affection given to my mother and sister from my father.
I grew up in a time where it seemed the “man” thing was not to “Show” your affection toward your wife in public, or affection toward your children. “You’ll spoil them” they said. I was told by men to play the “macho” guy. Not to let your feelings show. If you did, you were weak.
I remember a man years ago who I won to the Lord, baptized and prayed him, his wife and two children through to the Holy Ghost. This dilapidated home of a man, woman and two kids was far from a family or a home.
After working with the man for a year, I started working on his wife. After a year, she received the Holy Ghost and I baptized her. Before she ever came around, he would want to counsel with me all the time about what he should do about his wife. He had marriage problems as she would go out on the night. She never showed him any attention, never wanted to clean the house, stay home, do anything with him, etc. It was bad.
One day, I asked him what he was doing to win her affection. He looked at me as if I was crazy. “What do you mean, what am I doing to win her?” I means, are you complementing her or buying her flowers to show you love her? Are you cleaning the house, helping out with the kids homework or just spending some time each evening with her? Are you being the kind of Christian man that would make her want to be a Christian?” “I couldn’t do that.” Why? I asked. “If I did that, she would become spoiled and rotten and then expect it from me all the time.” Well of course she would you lush lug! What do you think Christianity is all about?” No wonder she showed him no affection. Who wishes to romance a dead fish? I can just see her friend asking her; “What are you doing tonight? O nothing, I’m just having dinner with a manikin.”
Jesus said it well; “Here in is love.” What? That real love, the kind of love that so effects people that it demands a response is the kind of love that shows up in our lives. Here is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us. This is to say that the real way that we are to ever receive love is to first give love. It’s the Law of Sowing and Reaping. If you sow it, God will grow it. If you want friends, you have to be a friend.
What is it that you are wanting? Are you looking for love? Wishing for a relationship? If so, then you need to be the magnet that will attract the very person or relationship you are seeking. You can’t be a silent, stuck up person and attract a loving person. If you are looking for a serious relationship, you can’t act like a “one night stand.”
Whatever it is that you are looking for or desiring, you will have to manifest that very thing. If you want to attract money, you can’t be selfish. If you want people to be nice to you, you must stop being mean. If you want help, you can’t be rude. Become the very thing you want to become and you shall attract that which you desire.

GET YOUR LOST INVESTMENT BACK
Larry Hagman, the actor who played the villainous J.R. Ewing in the 1980s TV show "Dallas,'' has won his case that he was victimized by Citigroup Inc., and the bank was ordered to pay over $11 million in damages. The total award includes $10 million in punitive damages that Citi must pay to charities selected by Hagman, $1.1 million in compensatory damages and nearly $440,000 in legal fees.
Hagman, who also played astronaut Anthony Nelson in "I Dream of Jeannie'' in the 1960s TV show filmed in Cocoa, FL had requested $1.35 million in damages. He could not be reached for comment. Hagman accused Citi in May 2009 of a breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract, fraud by misrepresentation and omission, failure to supervise and violation of federal and state law, according to the ruling by an arbitration panel of FINRA, a self-regulatory body of the U.S. financial industry.
The allegations stemmed from unspecified securities held in Citi accounts, as well as the purchase of a life insurance policy. Hagman received the unusually large award after the arbitrators found Citigroup Global Markets "engaged in serious misconduct,'' meeting FINRA's standards for punitive damages, the ruling said.
This is a great sign across American people who had invested in securities schemes created by major Banks and Holding institutions. This is a fire across the bow that Banks and Securities firms who created bogus or fraudulent schemes can and should be held accountable. If you made an investment into some form of “Securities investment” and have lost big in your portfolio or lost your investment as a whole, you should contact your attorney and allow him / her to check and see if you have a case to suit and get your money back.

MEANS TO SUCCESS
I am more energized about personal success, growth and economic blessings now more than ever. God has opened my eyes to the "Biblical Entrepreneur" revelation. This divine insight has spawned a whole new sage of wisdom and passion.
In the Bible there is a story about a Wise man who saved an entire city from an invading army. However, the wise man was not remembered because he was poor (Eccl 9:15). Think of it, the ability to save a whole city but because of his poverty, his inability to influence reduced his divine wisdom to naught.
Here we are millenniums from that Wise man and still poverty restricts the greatest truth known to man - truth of the gospel of salvation. Jesus said, "You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." But without the means to spread that truth, deliver that truth and propagate that truth, what can such a truth do for a dying city?
What if you were given the ability to not only know the truth but the means by which to move mountains, save cities and transform lives? What if such a powerful opportunity, such profound information that could pour into your life a 1000 ideas, principles, tools, inspirations, and methods that would manifest itself as more money than you could spend? What if such knowledge and information would cost you your life? Would you give it? Of course you would. What if it only cost you a year's wage, would you sacrifice for it? Who wouldn’t? What if it cost only something as giving up soft drinks - that's right, Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, or Sprite? What if I said to you, I will give you enough knowledge and wisdom that could make you rich beyond your wildest dreams, would you be willing to give up a Coke a day?
Of course you would. What fool would not quit something that does him or her no physical good for information that would literally transform their lives, their family and their future? No one is that stupid to say no to such an offer - or would they?
A Coke can cost about $1.65 per can or bottle in your local 7-11, or drug store. I don't know anyone who drinks soft drinks who only drinks ONE a day (7 a week). For about the same cost: $1.65 a day you can have access to 1000's of articles, dozens of video and audio tutorials and access to a team of Entrepreneurs with a VISION to help you reach your Entrepreneur potential.
