There is a constant war going on between our flesh and the Spirit. As Christians, the Spirit of God seeks to move us under the authority of His domain in order for us to fulfill all that we were created for. Every person was designed to be under some form of authority. Jesus modeled this in His own life. He lived under the authority of His heavenly Father. He made no independent decisions.

What’s the perspective that’s needed from a Kingdom Business Leader to achieve success today? Unless the LORD builds the house, the builders labor in vain. (Ps. 127:1) The mind of man plans his way but the LORD directs his steps. (Pr. 16.9) If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. (Jn. 15:7-8) In addition to experiencing the presence and power of GOD we find that great leaders have a vision that’s bigger than themselves and they have the unique ability to be both humble and direct.

We will soon emerge from one of the most unusual times in history. Many of us have been isolated and set apart from the normal routine of life because of the COVID-19 virus. It has been uncomfortable and strange, to say the least. This is not a time to be wasted or squandered. God has something to say to us if we have ears to hear. "Those who have insight will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of Heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever." (Daniel 12:3 NASB) The word we are carrying into this season is "RESET". God is currently resetting the course of individuals, businesses, ministries, and governments. Without a reset, we will enter the next season guided by assumption from the past, not a revelation for the future. BY LARRY NAULT, BKC President and Chief Strategist
We live in a world where many doubt a follower of Christ can run a highly successful business without compromise or while following biblical principles. At BKC, we believe in combining how we embrace our faith with how we operate our businesses as a holistic approach to building any endeavor of significance and lasting impact. Everyone lives a life of conviction. Whatever we give our greatest time, our greatest energies, and our greatest resources to is a good indication of where our convictions lie.

"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me." - Psalm 23:4a KJV In the battles of the workplace, your peace is actually a weapon. The workplace creates many opportunities to rob us of our peace: the Coronavirus, cash flow concerns, deadlines, relationships - all create stress on us. Your confidence in the God of peace declares that you are not falling for the lies of the devil. BY LARRY NAULT, BKC President and Chief Strategist
The distinguishing mark of a Christian or a Kingdom Company is not a cross, a crucifix, a dove, or a fish on a bumper sticker. The sign is LOVE. How many people know you’re a follower of Christ because of your loving lifestyle? We sing about love, talk about love, pray about love, and study love. But do we do it?

Most people get to watch history; very few get to make it. But we believe you can be one of those few history-makers. A thousand years before you were born, God knew you’d be where you are right now. He knew you’d be reading this devotional. I believe it’s because God has something special, something unique in store for you. You’re not sitting where you’re sitting by accident. You haven’t had the experiences in your life by chance. God designed your life to make a difference in the world. BY LARRY NAULT, BKC President and Chief Strategist
WELCOME new members and to all our community as we continue this journey of building great companies that glorify and advance the kingdom of God! Your identity determines your destiny. That’s a pretty big statement. But in the life of Moses, we see that it’s true. Once Moses realized who he was, his life took a whole new direction. Hebrews 11:27 (NLT) says: “It was by faith that Moses left the land of Egypt, not fearing the king’s anger. He kept right on going because he kept his eyes on the one who is invisible." Learning your true identity does two things: it gives you the courage to let go of the past, and the courage to walk into the future. Moses “left the land of Egypt.” He had the courage to let go of his past. BY LARRY NAULT, BKC President and Chief Strategist
In today's edition we learn the importance of knowing who we really are. It’s true that when we don’t know who we are, we live for other people’s approval. But God offers us so much more. He wants us to live in the true identity that he’s given us. The Bible tells a famous story of someone who chose to live in his God-given identity—the story of Moses. Moses was the greatest leader in the entire Old Testament. He led the Jews to freedom after 400 years of slavery in Egypt. He received the Ten Commandments from God. He’s credited with writing the first five books of the Bible. But Moses started life as a slave. As an infant, he was placed in a river basket as his mother tried to save him from genocide. He was found by Pharaoh’s daughter and raised as a prince. BY LARRY NAULT, BKC President and Chief Strategist
WELCOME new members and to all our community as we continue this journey of building great companies that glorify and advance the kingdom of God! In today's edition we learn how to walk in the favor of God. “For those who are led by the Spirit of God are Sons of God.” Romans 8:14 Sons of God have a huge place of favor in the Kingdom. The difference is night and day. Sons have authority over obstacles; we see Father’s purpose first and break the yoke second. The question is, “How does it happen.” Does God sovereignly pick a few favorites, or do we volunteer somehow?” listen to these examples of favor: |
