The Instruction You Follow Determines The Future You Create.

Respond, Respect and Understand the value of God's words. "If ye love Me, keep My commandments," (John 14:15; see also John 15:10). God values His words. God's words instruct us...correct us...promote us. His words are life-changing. We must simply learn to listen and follow His voice.

I have experienced many Turning-Point days and moments when a man of God would speak into my life. I would hear a statement that unlocked something in me. I would read a book and he information affected me.

Divine conversation gives instructions, warnings, inspiration. It births hope. It corrects or harnesses our life. I have experienced 7 conversations with God where He has given me key instructions that have truly changed my life.

My 7 Turning-Point Conversations With God

1 What You Make Happen For Others, God Will Make Happen For You. This created the most significant change in my ministry. God did not say if you treated somebody good they would treat you good...it is not an exchange. He simply said to do good to people.

2 Do Not Accept Every Invitation To Battle. The Purpose of battle is to produce a reward. There are people in your life who would rather have an argument than to have no conversation at all. Stop responding to all the attacks, whether it is disrespect or dishonor.

3 Success Is Doing The Will of God. Success is built on...mending one broken life, if you bring healing to the family of God, if you bring restoration, that is Success. Success is not what you did yesterday. Success is perpetual. It is unending. It is eternal. Success Is Doing The Will of God...Day By Day.

4 The Boaz Anointing. The anointing that you respect is the anointing that is going to grow in your life.

5 The Isaac Offering. God wants to know if you were willing to obey His voice and plant the Seed He tells you to plant.

6 The Miracle of The $1,000 Seed. I broke the back of poverty with a $1,000 Seed. When God Speaks To You About A Seed, He Has A Harvest On His Mind.

7 Your Only Assignment Is To Love. I had a very interesting conversation with God when my mother died. One day as I was praying regarding her life of love, God spoke to me and said, "Your Assignment is not to write books. Your Assignment is not to teach Wisdom. Your Assignment is to love and because you love, you write books. Because you love, you mentor. Because you love, you do everything you do. Your only Assignment is to love, and because you love, you do what you do." It changed my world.
