123 We Divorce Poverty

Lately I've observed a stark contrast between people that are in 'bunker mentality' fighting to survive in a 'war' (whether real or not) and those stepping up, standing out and advancing in family, in business and in life. BOTH are in the same environment. The difference to me is 1. Perspective 2. Identity and 3. Intentional generosity - of time, talent, resources. The first group are in a bunker thinking mostly of themselves. This is poverty. The second group are thinking about their family, their team, their community. The key to shift? Divorcing poverty of mind - smallness of perspective and power, and embracing intentional generosity.

WE divorce poverty. My victory is not mine alone. Poverty caps you and limits you from what God has in mind for you. It ALSO limits you to you… it silo's you with your own life and cancels the corporate victory that you are called to be a part of.

Generosity uncaps you and unlocks you to be a part of an investment community where we get to see all around us lifted up. The gospel is not good news for me alone; it is good news for US.

WE divorce poverty, small mindedness, stinginess and lack.

We embrace generosity and victory and intentionally look how we can help those around us advance.

1. What would victory look like over the next few weeks in your business?

List three PRACTICAL things or measures eg. #sales or outcome of a conflict/lawsuit/situation

2. Exchange lists with one another so that you get to pray over their victory as if it was your own.

Do this, with communion, for the next month, daily!

Let one another know progress.

3. What could you practically and intentionally do to help one another gain a victory?

This session was originally recorded just after the Carr Fire in Redding, CA when 200,000 acres burned around our immediate community. Bunker mentality would have turned the disaster into permanent disadvantage or constraint. Generosity positioned us to navigate the disaster and make practical gains every step of the way - not just individually, as a community.

So, what will you do this week?
