Doing Business With God by Dr. Rodney Howard-Browne
Psalm 107:23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters.
God welcomes you to come and do business with Him - in negotiations. Come, let us reason together saith the Lord of hosts. God is waiting to hear from you and he wants to hear the cry of your heart. The Bible says the effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Many people in the church world today do not know how to do business with God. The Bible tells us to put God in remembrance of His word. We come to Him humbly and we come to Him in faith. The Bible says in Hebrews 11 that without faith it is impossible to please God - for he that cometh to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. I don’t only believe that God is - I know that He is, but I also know that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. When I go to Him in prayer, this is my attitude in prayer, that if I am the only one on the face of the earth that He will hear, He’s going to hear. Why? Not because I am anything special, but because I go to Him on the basis of His Word.
John 15:7 declares: If you abide in Me and My words abide in you, you shall ask what you will and it shall be done unto you. One translation says that if you live in Me and My words live in you, you can ask whatever you want, and if I don’t have it, then I’ll make it for you! When you are born-again, you have a right to come boldly up to the throne of grace and you can do business with God.
The Lord told me to tell the church to ask largely. I’m not the God of the little, I’m the God of the big! Ask largely! You’re not asking large enough. He is a big mighty God and He wants to do big and mighty things for you. Call unto Me, and I will answer you, and I will show you great and mighty things! It is time to do business with God.
