God Bless Israel

I love Israel and pray for their peace and prosperity. While the USA, Russia, China, and every other country in the world can easily be wiped off the map by the One True God Almighty, Israel is the only country promised to stand forever. Jesus will rule the world from Jerusalem one day soon and it will never end. Jerusalem is the center of the universe. Israel is the greatest and most powerful country on planet earth because they are protected by God himself. Nobody can stand against Israel. I give my blessing and favor to Israel.

Step of Faith

Well, I did it. I took the step of faith and did what I feel the Lord is leading me to do. I have enrolled in the M.Div. program at Liberty University. Starting in the Summer 2021 semester. The following will be my first courses:

LEAD 510 Biblical Foundations of Leadership

NBST 515 New Testament Orientation I

NBST 520 New Testament Orientation II

RTCH 500 Research, Writing & Ministry Preparation

I know you may be asking, why are you getting another degree. Normally, I wouldn't have even considered it. But I truly feel this is what the Lord wants me to do. So, regardless of any negative input that anyone may have, I am ignoring what anyone has to say except what I feel in my heart from the Holy Spirit. Keep me in your prayers as I begin my seminary education.

My Dream

This is my personal blog, and thus far, it has mostly been about my desire to become a full-time stock trader. What does that mean? It means that I want 100% of my income to come from stock trading. That's my heart's desire. Why do I want 100% of my income to come from stock trading? Because after learning from TradeWay and Timothy Sykes, I've learned that trading stocks as a career can provide substantial income while giving you the freedom of not having a job for money. So, my heart's desire is to be a full-time stock trader, making my 100% living from trading stocks a few hours per day. I am praying and asking the Lord for this to become a reality soon.

So, when the Lord makes this a reality and I'm not having to "work" for a living, but instead can make my income from trading stocks, what will I do with my time? For the past year, the Lord has laid this whole idea on my heart and mind, and I'm sharing it with you today. I feel that the Lord does not want me wasting time in my current jobs because they are not doing anything for him. And I agree with the Lord because I feel that my current occupations are a huge waste of time (in the long run, nobody cares). I could be doing something much more meaningful with my life. But I need my current occupations right now to pay for my living expenses. So, I'm stuck until the Lord blesses my efforts in stock trading to the extent that I'm asking.

What the Lord has laid on my heart for the past year is to go into church work. When I'm able to earn my living by stock trading a few hours a day, the rest of my "working time" during the day can be spent in church and ministry work. I have asked the Lord to bless my stock trading so that I can become a millionaire. The reason I want to become a millionaire is because I want to do as the Lord demanded and create an inheritance for my children's children. Also, I want to have the money to support and start new ministries. I would love to fund Cross International. I would also like to replicate what my friend Rusty Price did in Charlotte, NC with his Camino Community Center. I would like to replicate that idea in other places around the country. My wife is from Chile, so I would love to establish a soup kitchen there to keep the poor and have her family run it, while having missionaries in the area come and spread the Gospel. I would also like to get involved with the agency that builds wells in Africa, and the agency that feeds children and sends them to school. Also, as a lifetime Gideon, the Word of God is most important to me, so I want to get involved with the agency that translates the Bible, and I would love to personally fund the translation of the Bible in all remaining languages. But, none of these dreams will come to pass until the Lord blesses my stock trading efforts to a huge degree.

In addition to using my millions to support ministries, I also want to have a farm for myself and my family. My daughter loves animals, and especially horses, so I would love to have a farm full of animals, and I would hire ranch hands and other workers to take care of things because I don't know how since I never lived on a farm. But my daughter is currently helping at a farm, and I believe this is something that she would enjoy and might would want to make a future out of.

So, now for my new big idea. When the Lord allows me to trade for a living, I want to spend my time doing church work. I have a desire to help people. I've reached out to my pastors recently to get their thoughts and opinions, and after much discussion with several people that I highly respect, I believe that the most usefulness that I can be, and the greatest need in the church is for me to work as a non-preaching pastor, doing counseling and executive administration. Right now I'm looking into seminary training, and after much review over the past few months, I believe I've settled on two degrees from Liberty University. To accomplish what I believe the Lord has put in my heart, I believe I'll need a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) in Pastoral Counseling, and a Doctor of Ministry (D.Min.) in Pastoral Counseling from Liberty University. With this training, I believe that I will be equipped to counsel others, and this skill will add to my position as an elder, and will also be very useful if the Lord decides to put me in a pastoral position.

Having these two seminary degrees combined with my three business degrees will greatly equip me to serve the church in administration, organization, finance, and counseling. This is what the Lord has laid on my heart over the past year and I believe that it's him that's wanting me to seek this avenue. Therefore, as I continue in my current occupations, I plan to enroll into these two seminary degree programs, which will take four years to complete both. Additionally, I will continue to build my stock trading skills. Hopefully when I finish the D.Min., then I'll be able to resign from my current occupations and trade stocks for a living while working in a pastoral capacity and supporting other ministries from my millions that I believe the Lord is going to give me. Plus, I have a huge desire to help the poor, meaning that if I'm counseling someone (or a married couple) that is having financial problems, I would love the opportunity to counsel them and also give them money to help them, but without them knowing that the money came from me. I desire to be a stock trading millionaire pastor because I believe I can help a lot of people for the sake of Jesus Christ.

Therefore, as in Exodus 35, I am asking my Heavenly Father, the Lord God Almighty, in the name of Jesus Christ, to fill me with his spirit of wisdom and understanding, in knowledge and all manner of workmanship in the area of stock trading. I ask that he put in me the ability to trade successfully and fill me with the skill to do all manners of successful stock trading in both bear (negative) and bull (positive) markets. As I please him in seeking seminary education, supporting ministries, and wanting to volunteer in pastoral counseling, I'm asking him to do as he has promised in his word and take from the unrighteous and give to me through stock trading.

I want this to come to pass with all my heart. Please Lord, I beg you to let me become a millionaire stock trader so that I can support ministries and bless others. It's my heart's desire to see the people of your church to have financial relief, and with millions coming from the unrighteous to me, I am more than happy to make this happen and give as you direct. Thank you Father in advanced for what you're going to do in my life. Thank you for allowing me to get these two seminary degrees. Thank you for the millions of dollars that you're bring to me from the unrighteous through stock trading. Thank you for what you're going to do in the ministries that I'll be supporting. Thank you for the lives and the families that I'll be able to help in counseling. I praise you for letting me be a small part in your plan to make a difference for others. In Jesus’ name I declare and claim this and speak it into existence.

Psalm 91

I declare that I will dwell in the shelter of the Most High God.

I declare that I will find in the shadow of the Almighty.

I declare that God is my refuge and my fortress,

I declare that You are my God, in whom I trust and with great confidence on whom I will rely. 

I declare that God will rescue me from every trap, and protect me from every disease. 

I declare that I am covered and protected by His outstretched arms. 

I declare that God’s faithful promises are my armor and my protection. 

I declare that I will not be afraid of the the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies in the day. 

I declare that I will not dread any disease that stalks in the darkness nor any disaster that strikes at midday.

I declare that because God is my refuge, and the almighty God of my home, no evil can befall me, and no plague can come near my dwelling. 

I declare that God has ordered His angels to guard, defend and protect me and my house. 

I declare that God’s armies of heaven will keep me from falling. I will walk unharmed and kick anything that is evil from my path. 

I declare that because of God’s love me, I will call upon Him and He will set me above all my troubles, He will deliver me from all my fear, He will honor me with His presence and power. 

I declare that He will reward me with long life and He will show me His salvation.

Lord Jesus, thank you that I have an abundance of undeserved favor.

I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

I have a right to all of the finished works of Jesus Christ.

Natural Born Leader

I am not a natural born leader. I know and accept that. This is the fate the Lord has bestowed upon me. God did not create me to be a leader. I realize that and accept it, and I'm fine with it. I have come to terms with it. However, I would love to change it and be a leader that people would want to follow. But I realized that I have no charisma, and with my looks and personality, I am not a person that people see as cool and say "hey, I want to follow him." But, I am a hard worker when I'm passionate about something, and I've always had the tendency of being the number two person that carries out the plans of the leader. So, if you're like me and strive to lead, but people just don't naturally follow you, then it's ok. Just do what you can do, and help someone that God has destined to lead.

For example, Moses was a leader but his brother Aaron was someone that helped carry out what Moses decided (upon receiving a word from the Lord). I see myself as Aaron. I don't have the vision for a big plan, but I can get behind someone that does and do an outstanding job supporting them. Unfortunately, in today's world, if you're not a leader then you are not a high quality employee. Also, if you're not a leader, then you'd be stuck in dead end jobs, making no money and no hope for a future. But that's not acceptable to me.

If you're like me, then I recommend getting as much education as possible. For me, even though I'm not a natural born leader, at least I did the work that's required for people to address me as doctor. So, that's at least something. Even though I'm not followed by anybody, I do support leaders and have been put it very good positions to advise and such due to my willingness to support/serve and because of my education. So, if you're like me, there is at least some good you can get involved in. Albeit, as with me, without being a natural born leader, opportunities will still have a cap on them financially, which I disagree with.

You often hear people say "you can be whatever you want to be." But this is an absolute lie. No matter what I do and how hard I try, I could never be a professional athlete or a professional actor. Why, you ask. Because that's not what God designed me for. You cannot be anything you want to be. You might can select from a few options what you might do, but you're limited to selecting within the areas that God created you for. If you believe that you can be whatever you want to be, then you are believing a lie that the system has created to keep you trying to do something that you'll never be able to achieve because God didn't create you for something like that.

Why am I writing this post? To let you know that it's ok to be a normal, average person. When I was growing up, I wanted to be Anthony Burger. Then more recently, I'd rather have the life of Timothy Sykes. But, I know that I'll never be like them because I am not a natural born leader or a person that people follow, and that's ok. But when it comes to trying to be like Anthony Burger, I'll just play Southern Gospel piano like him and enjoy my own playing, and maybe a few people at my church would enjoy it. It's ok that I'll never have his size audience. When it comes to being like Timothy Sykes, I know that I'll never have a following like him because I'm not someone that anyone would want to follow. But, I can work hard to develop my stock trading skills and make tons of money without having a following.

That's why I choose stock trading. It is my passion. And, I am not limited by the money I can make as I am with a normal job. I can be an average person without the makeup of a leader and still become a millionaire without a lot of people following me. I am fine and ok with that. That is what I'm working toward. If I die without making this a reality, then I will see my life as having failed and wasted time. If I have to spend the rest of my life in a job working for somebody else, then I would have failed and wasted my life. So, I am passionate about trading stocks for a living. This is the most important thing in my life because when I get to where I'm planning, I'll have the freedom to do meaningful things that I can't do while wasting my time working for someone else for pennies.

Come Quickly Lord Jesus

This blog is about me wanting to be a millionaire stock trader for the sole purpose of giving and financing the spreading of the gospel. I love the Lord Jesus with all my heart and I hate wasting my time in a meaningless job when there's a much better life that I desire. However, here recently, I've had a great longing in my heart to go home. I want to be in Heaven with Jesus more than anything in the world. If God the Father decides not to send Jesus for the church during my lifetime, then yes, I want to be a millionaire stock trading Christian philanthropist. However, I would much rather prefer that Jesus return very soon and take home his church.

I absolutely hate being on this earth. I am ready to get forever started. I can't wait until I'm with the Lord and this place is barely a memory. I'd prefer not to remember it, and just know my life in Heaven. Everything here has been terrible. Sin is running rapid and the majority is falling for it, supporting abortion, homosexuality, and other unholy things. I just want to leave. I wish people would accept Jesus and change, but it is written and that will not happen. Only a few will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. The majority of the people will spend forever burning in hell because they refused God's will.

I want more than anything to be with Jesus, in His presence, and living in Heaven. I am ready to get forever started where there will be no sin. But if God doesn't have plans for Jesus' return during my lifetime, then I want my dream of being a millionaire stock trader. I don't want to waste more time in a meaningless job that I hate, when I know that I could be trading a few hours a day for my total income and then spend the remaining time of my day doing ministry work, and to also use money received from trading to further spread the gospel. This is where my passions are.

PLEASE JESUS. COME QUICKLY. YOUR CHURCH WANTS TO GO HOME.

I am looking for him to return everyday and everyday he doesn't, I am greatly disappointed, but will continue to strive to take money from the unrighteous through my trading activities as He promised he would do for those that please him. And since I've put my complete faith in Jesus, then according to his word, I am the righteousness of God through Christ Jesus.

More than anything, I just want to go home to Heaven to live in the Kingdom of God under the monarchy of Jesus Christ.

Be Like Jacob

In Genesis 32:24-29, we're told, Jacob wrestled with an Angel until the break of the day. And when the Angel did not prevail, the Angel knocked his hip out of socket. Jacob said, I will not let you go until you bless me. And the Angel said, your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel because you struggled with God and prevailed. And he blessed him there.

In Genesis 18, we’re told that the Lord told Abraham that he would destroy Sodom and Gomorrah. But then Abraham questioned the Lord and asked if he would destroy the righteous with the wicked. At then end of their conversation, the Lord agreed that for the sake of ten righteous people, he would not destroy the cities. In the end, we know that both cities were destroyed, so there were not 10 or more righteous. But for me, the lesson is that God was originally going to destroy both cities regardless of its inhabitants. But because of Abraham’s persistence in saving the righteous, then the Lord changed his mind and basically said, ok, I’ll not destroy the righteous with the wicked. To me, this is similar to Jacob’s struggle with God because these two are example of men being persistent in their request to the Lord for something very specific.

In Luke 11, Jesus tells the story of a person that went to a friend’s house at midnight to borrow bread. But that friend and his family were in bed, so the friend would not get up and give the bread just because of his friendship with the person. But instead, Jesus said that the friend will surely get up and give the friend as much as needed because of the friend's audacity and persistence. Then Jesus says, So I say to you. Ask and it will be given to you, for everyone who asks receives. If you, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give to those who ask him.

So, I pledge to continue my persistent and constant asking big things of the Lord as he has commanded. I am like Jacob. I will keep asking God until I am blessed or I die trying. The way I see it, I have one life to live. And if I have to waste it working dead end jobs for someone else, then that is no way to live. I don't want to be a worker. I want to be one that provides the employment. I want to be a millionaire stock trader so that I can fund ministries, missions, spread the gospel, and do more useful things for God's kingdom instead of wasting my time miserably depressed working in a job. Life can be so much more, and I will consistently and persistently ask the Lord for it until it is received or I'm dead. I will not settle for a mediocre life. There's too many people that aren't being reached for me to waste my time in a stupid job. Especially when I see many others personally trading for a living, freeing up their time for charity and other much more meaningful work.

I rebuke the demonic spirit of poverty and lack that has been on my life. I will continue to do as God as demanded in order for me to be prosperous, and then I will constantly and persistently mention in my prayers... remember when you promised as I give you would give in good measure pressed down and open the floodgates to where I wouldn't have room to store it, or what about when you said that when I keep the book of the law and be obedient that you promised to make me prosperous, well, I've given to the church and the poor and have kept a constantly Bible study and have specifically been obedient overcoming specific sins (that I'll keep private and not mention here), therefore, I expect you Father God to keep your end of what you promised. Father God, you said that the task of the unrighteous is to gather wealth to give over to those that please you, and according to your word, I am pleasing to you, therefore, I expect through my stock trading that you'll bring the wealth of the unrighteous to me. Lord, I expect you to honor your word as I do what you've asked so that I can fulfill your command of leaving an inheritance to my children's children. I expect to receive and will not settle for anything less than what you've promised in your word. 

The way I see it, if I do my part and God does not do his part, then his word is void, and we all know that the Bible said that God's word will not return void. So, that means that he keeps his promises. Therefore, I have the confidence in saying that, even though I don't see it yet, I am already a millionaire stock trader philanthropist that funds Christian ministry activities. And since Proverbs 23:7 says, for as a man thinks in his heart, so is he, therefore, so am I in the name of Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God.
