10 Curses That Block The Blessing

Even though God had delivered Larry completely from drug addiction, he had not been delivered from the uncontrollable outbursts of anger that had plagued his life. Larry had tried everything he knew, but he could do nothing to put these terrible moments of rage behind him. These outbursts would come upon him unexpectedly, and when they did, he said and did terrible things to his wife and even terrified his children. After violent episodes, he would apologize in tears and beg his wife to forgive him. Though he would promise to never lose his temper again, sooner or later his control would slip. During one extreme outburst he understood that he had become just like the generations before him, angry and violent. Though he had vowed never to do those things, he had become the very thing that he most hated. In a moment of revelation he knew that he was confronting a generational pattern, acting out his anger just as generations of his family had done before him. He went to the Bible a...

20 Rules Of Closing A Deal

This is a policy that is frequently violated and missed, even by seasoned professionals. You will hardly ever close someone while standing up. The saying goes, “present on your feet, close the terms from your seat.” In addition to making sure you are seated when you close, keep your buyer seated as well. Even if your prospect stands up, remain seated suggesting that you are not done. Do not overreact, stay seated, stay calm and enforce your confidence in your ability to come to agreement. Going from a seating position to standing up suggests that something has changed and allows your prospect to exit and remove themselves from the close. Click Here To Download The Book

12 Ways To Be A Blessing To Your Church

Do you remember a statement similar to this one made by President John F. Kennedy? In his inaugural address on January 20, 1961, he said, “Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.” I remember learning that famous quote in school. I think more people would be saved and ministered to if Christians had that same thinking in the Church today. Many times we have a tendency to look for ways to be blessed rather than looking for ways to be a blessing. Of course, you know as well as I do that the best way to have joy unspeakable in our lives is to be a giver. Real joy is in putting others first instead of ourselves. Click Here To Download The Book

How To Sell To Nigerians

I don't know about you, but I absolutely detest it when friends and family try to “force” me to buy what they are selling. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. You are on your own “jejely” and a cousin of yours who just opened his clothing line comes to you. He is just starting out and he needs your support. You are a nice guy and you feel you should support him. It doesn't even matter if his clothes are of top quality or not. Nothing wrong with that. After all, we all need support. No one has reached the top without being assisted by someone one way or the other. No human is an island. So you support. His kinds of clothes are not what you normally wear but you support nonetheless. You get the clothes and give away or keep in your wardrobe or at least wear them once to show your support. If the clothing are of top quality, you can even tag your cousin on social media so others can see. You mention him and his business to a few of your friends with the hope that the...

Sales Don't Just Happen

Sales don’t just happen. Orders happen, of course. Someone calls us up and says, “Do you sell this stuff I’m looking for? Oh, you do? Great. Can I get some?” We take down the details. We fill the order. But that’s not selling. That’s taking orders. In order for a sale to happen, we have to do something deliberate and impossible to ignore—something that all but forces the other person to respond to us. The people who then do respond to us are, by definition, our prospects; they’re the ones on which we should focus our attention. Click Here To Download The Book

Finally Lust Free

‘The enemy is only as strong as you allow him in your life.’-H Phamodi. Open doors are a legal ground for the enemy to operate in your life. Sexual sins that are present in a life of a born again Christian is due to some negligence and ignorance that the enemy takes advantage of. I was counselling a young man who was struggling with pornography and women, and to my surplice these young men will be free for a few weeks, but soon fall back into the same sin again. I didn’t understand why, until God revealed to me that there is an open door, remember what the scriptures says about an unclean spirit in Matthew 12:43-45; the spirit that has gone out of a man goes about dry places seeking rest, but find none. Then the sprit says; ‘I will return into my house from where I came out.’ And when he has come he finds it empty and clean and garnished, then he goes and take for himself seven other sprits that are more wicket that him, and the state of that man is worse than before. The enemy looks f...

Sex, God And Marriage

Everywhere today, people are searching for lasting and meaningful relationships. The myth of free love continues to be taken for granted by millions, and a new generation of young men and women has accepted the belief that sexual freedom is the key to fulfillment. But as desperately as people want to believe in the sexual revolution of the last few decades, it is clear to many of them that something has gone terribly wrong. Instead of bringing freedom, “sexual liberation” has left countless wounded and isolated souls. As we face the great anguish around us, it is more important than ever for all of us, young and old, to consider the direction of our lives and ask ourselves where we are headed.

Experiencing Jesus

From the moment we are conceived, we have a built-in desire to run the world around us so that it benefits us and serves us completely. Let’s face it: We are all born with a self-centered, me-first identity. We emerge from the womb a cry baby, our sole purpose being to see that every whim, desire, and need is fulfilled by those who have obviously been placed in our lives to accomplish this. In our eyes, the world revolves around us. The description I have just given is the essence of the sin nature. There is not one sin we can name that cannot be labeled selfish and self-centered. Furthermore, the original sin is addressed in the first commandment, which contains the antidote to the sin nature: Click Here To Download The Book

Sales Coaching

Organizations today must adjust to change with more speed and insight than ever before. As a sales manager, you are on the front line of that change. You are close to external and internal customers. You make the inside-outside connection. You are in the field near customers. You are on the inside track. You are the link between executive management and the sales force. Your sales coaching is the lifeline for your sales team. Sales coaching is a process, but more than that, it is a way of life. It is visceral—a gut-level feeling that helps determine how you work with your salespeople and how your managers work with you. It is a commitment among professionals to support one another so that they can be the best they can be. How much sales coaching do you provide? Richardson research with more than 1,000 managers and 4,500 salespeople showed that many sales managers are simply not coaching to the level that they could be or that is needed. In our study, sales managers were rated as coache...
