SPOILS
The Lord revealed this name to me in a prayer meeting at a friend's home. SPOILS-Strategic Placement Of Influence, Leadership & Service Out of the spoils won in battles did they dedicate to maintain the house of the LORD. A ministry of business people and church leaders dedicated to Reshaping the Culture for Him.
We must recapture the culture. And business is one of the easiest (Though not necessarily the simplest way.) ways to reach the multitudes. And business in Christianity has often been pushed out the doors of the church. A church I attended years ago, made an effort to get it's strong business people into the ministry. Hmmm. Kind of cuts down on the finances the churches are using.
God has placed each one of us strategically within the body of Christ. He has given each one of us spheres of influence. He has set leaders in place, but mostly He is trying to grow leaders. Do we realize that nearly 90% of all leaders learned their positions and earned it, rather than being majorly gifted. Humility and meekness, obedience and worship are some of the strongest criteria for being leaders. And without a doubt, true leadership in this season's understanding is that leadership begins through serving. For us to be Godly business people we must learn that our customer, our client, our patient comes first. For them to be reached, requires excellence in our business and service to them and to the Lord.
Let us gather the spoils of battle, that we may maintain the house of the Lord.

Sorry to barge in on you. I thought you might find the information in my blog helpful. Ask The Car Dr. is an interactive blog designed for those of us who are driving and maintaining older vehicles as well as those with an interest in Hybrids and newer fuel cell technology. My last Volvo 740GL had over 360,000 mile on it before the time came to replace it. Quite honestly the car still was reliable enough to keep driving but my 140lb dog had his way with tan the interior and we were ready for a change. Knowledge is power and the tips in my blog could save you money if paid attention to. This is a new blog moderated by a former professional mechanic mechanic who is now a musician. Thanks for reading.
