Purpose and Mindset

Whether employed or self-employed, God calls us to effectively engage, responsibly relate, and deliberately dominate our professional spheres of influence (Joel 2:2-11). Like Joseph, Esther, and Daniel, many of us are called to represent God's love, eternal life, and Kingdom in the marketplace. We are to learn, work and live in the world yet not be of it (John 17:16). We are to engage with and in its systems yet not be conformed to them (Romans 12:2). God calls Believers to an even...

Whether employed or self-employed, God calls us to effectively engage, responsibly relate, and deliberately dominate our professional spheres of influence (Joel 2:2-11). Like Joseph, Esther, and Daniel, many of us are called to represent God's love, eternal life, and Kingdom in the marketplace. We are to learn, work and live in the world yet not be of it (John 17:16). We are to engage with and in its systems yet not be conformed to them (Romans 12:2). God calls Believers to an even higher dimension than just being "quarantined and avoiding contamination". Like Joseph and Daniel, we are to be the solution to every challenge in our industry, because the Spirit of the living God who "knows all things and reveals all things" dwells in us. We are called to do business, lead organisations, give counsel, represent communities, and in everything we do, be found to be 10 times better (Daniel 1:20). People should want to seek out, listen to and experience our leadership and governance, and like Pharaoh said to Joseph, say "Can we find anyone like this man [or woman], one in whom is the spirit of God?" (Genesis 41:38). Every professional sphere needs the love, life, and power of Jesus Christ, the anointed One and His Anointing. And Jesus uses us to reach and restore them all (Acts 1:8, Ephesians 3:20). It is Christ in us that is "the hope of glory" for this fallen world (Colossians 1:27). When we stand in our families, our families transform our communities; when communities apply God's Kingdom principles of love, faith, faithfulness, fruitfulness, multiplication, giving, seedtime and harvest, servant leadership, healing and transformation, our governments and nations are elevated; strongholds are broken; and the light of God's truth sets lives free to live up to their God-given purpose and potential (John 8:32, Ephesians 1:15-23, 2:10, 3:20, Isaiah 60:1-19, 61:1-7). We literally bring Heaven on Earth, which was God's will for us, from the very beginning (Genesis 1, Mathew 6:9-13, 16:18,19, 18:18). In the Purpose & Excellence Series, you will find the precepts, principles, and tools you need to engage your sphere of influence as a Spirit-led, purpose-driven, kingdom-minded servant leader charged with the mandate to dominate and transform that sphere into the glorious Kingdom of our God. It is imperative that on top of our spiritual foundation, we build the character and competencies to effectively influence and impact professional nations. We must restore what all of creation had lost and remains in bondage under till today.For creation has been waiting for us to know who and whose we are, why we are here, what we are here to do, how and where we are meant to take our generation before we hand in our work, passing the baton and resting in His service (Romans 8:18,19, 26, 1 Corinthians 2:9-16, 9:24, Philippians 3:12-14, Hebrews 11:32-40). It is my privilege and honour and very life's purpose to journey with you through the pages of these books to share what God has revealed to me about how to find your purpose, position in the marketplace and, pursue excellence, for distinction and Kingdom dominion. This is my guarantee to you, Ladies and Gentlemen: When you commit to willfully submit, genuinely live and consistently apply that which the Spirit of God confirms in His Word to be the will for your life, in what is written in these pages, you will transform into successful, influential transformational leaders that know their God and do exploits (Daniel 11:32).May we be found to be faithful to the end (Hebrews 3:14-19) and, may we be able to submit our work and boldly (and humbly) say to the Lord: I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do. (John 17:4).Modesta Mahiga-Mbughuni
