Learn to Love Marketing

My attitude toward marketing had always been "yuck". I told the Lord that I hated marketing. The Lord spoke to me: "I want to teach you to LOVE MARKETING, and to become good at it. For you will become good at what you love." 

My Reflections: God's grace flows out through the channel of His love (Matt. 14:14; Gal. 5:6). Without love, there is no revelation, anointing or breakthrough. Breakthroughs require love, passion, and whole-hearted search which result in God disclosing Himself to you. This is followed by steps of obedient implementation of the revelation(s) received.

Journaling: Each marketing piece is to come from My River, My flow, My heart, and it will speak directly to their heart. It is to be birthed in prayer and then sent with prayer. Then My Spirit will carry My message on the wings of My love into their hearts. Then I will prosper you. Then you will have success.

Mark, you know what the language of the heart is. It is imagination, pictures, emotions, flow, pondering, and meditation. The heart deals with attitudes, motivations and character traits. Communicating to the heart involves discerning their deepest needs, aspirations, God- given destinies, passions and desires.

I know all about the issues surrounding people's hearts. I will show you their hearts' needs, aspirations, fears and desires. I will grant you powerful stories and parables which will touch their hearts in a meaningful way, allowing My Spirit to work mightily within them, convincing them of what they are to do.

You know what a healed heart is. It is a heart full of faith, hope and love. The driving goals and passions of each person’s heart are to experience these things. You are to help lead them into these things. You know what an unhealed heart is. It is a heart filled with fear, despair and anger. As you write, you are moving people from their fears, angers and despair to a place of faith, hope and love. It is really as simple as that.

Journaling: “Appeal to the heart with honesty and integrity and get out of the way.”

Scripture: He who wins souls is wise (Prov. 11:30).

Prayer of Repentance

Lord, I repent: for my judgments against marketers, seeing them all as evil manipulators. I repent for my scorn against marketing, saying, "I have a powerful message, they should recognize it and come to me." I turn away from these attitudes and believe that marketers can be honest, serving their clients in the best way possible, and marketing is a biblical idea, for You said, "How will they know unless someone tell them," and You sent us out to tell the world of Your good news of salvation. So there is a place to go out and serve society well by telling them good news which can enhance their lives. Those who are ready and able will respond to the invitation. Others will not, and that is fine. That is the way it is.
