A Biblical Strategy—For Possessing The Marketplace
One of the strategies that God has revealed to me for conquering the marketplace is drawing from Joshua's story in the Bible. God has promised us a lot of things, and one of the things that he has promised us is to give us wealth and influence in the marketplace.
There is a growing call for ministry within the marketplace. By sharing this strategy, my goal is to empower action with confidence and clarity in fulfilling God's purpose in the marketplace.
Joshua's Journey
When we look at Joshua's journey in the Bible, we see a powerful lesson in perseverance, faith, and trust in God's promises. Just as Joshua faced numerous challenges and obstacles as he led the Israelites into the Promised Land, we too encounter trials and tribulations in the marketplace. However, through unwavering faith and reliance on God's guidance, Joshua was able to overcome every obstacle and claim victory.
In applying this lesson to our own ministry, we can draw strength from Joshua's story to navigate the complexities of the marketplace with confidence and courage. By trusting in God's promises of wealth and influence, we can approach each challenge with a sense of purpose and determination. Just as God was faithful to Joshua throughout his journey, we can rest assured that He will also be with us every step of the way, leading us to success and fulfilment in our endeavours.
As we embark on our own marketplace journey, let us remember the valuable lessons from Joshua's story: to have faith, to trust in God's promises, and to persevere in the face of adversity. With God by our side, we can conquer the marketplace with grace and integrity, fulfilling our potential and making a positive impact in the world around us.
Seek God's Guidance On What To Do
Seeking God's guidance is crucial for building a marketplace ministry. Building a foundation on the word of God involves establishing a personal relationship with Him, praying, fasting, and studying His word for yourself. This connection helps in hearing God clearly, receiving vision and direction, and discerning His will. Understanding how God speaks and developing prophetic senses are essential for moving forward in fulfilling His plans.
To succeed in ministry we have to;
Build a relationship with God for yourself (this may look like having a conversation with yourself in your head or out loud)
Establish a prayer and fasting routine (prayer: first thing in the morning, throughout the day/ fasting: whole day, for a couple of hours, dry fast, water fast, etc)
Learn how God speaks to you (dreams, open or close vision, scripture, an impression, etc)
Prepare A Battle Plan
Develop a battle plan by discerning God's guidance through prayer and studying His word for yourself.
Create a spiritual framework (a plan to help you overcome any challenges and obstacles you or your ministry may face along the way).
Prepare mentally and emotionally to conquer challenges and possess what God has ordained.
Use godly affirmations and scripture to strengthen your faith and overcome negativity. Prepare your mind and body to fulfil God's calling and prosper.
Do Your Market Research (Spy The Land)
Conducting market research allows you to understand the worlds strategy, your competitors flaws and your target audience needs. After that seek God for further clarity and direction before taking action in the marketplace. This approach ensures you're in alignment with God's vision and that He is the one leading you to implement this strategic plan of action.
Create An Action Plan
After researching and seeking God through prayer and worship, write down what He is instructing you to do and how to conquer the challenges you may face moving forward. Then implement the strategies provided to progress effectively.
Take Dominion (Possess The Marketplace)
God provides strategies and plans to take dominion in the marketplace.
Launch the vision, create products and services, build the platform, and attract your audience.
Establish an online presence, implement strategies, and create systems to fulfil your calling.
Trust in God's guidance to possess the marketplace and follow His blueprint instead of being led astray.
As you advance within the marketplace, it is essential to recognise that success is more than financial gain or recognition. It’s an extension of your influence beyond the church walls.
