One of my friends on Facebook shared a clip of the following video with me.
I wanted to hear the entire message and another one of my Facebook friends messaged me the video in it's entirety. This same Facebook friend by the name of Tokoyo Thrive Carter, also shared with me his travel business. I do believe in supporting other entrepreneurs. Tokoyo is a member of Avengers Network. You can check out his business site here to learn more about his business opportunity.
I found the message in this teaching to be very interesting. We as people can get so attached to individuals, places and things that we will miss what God has for us.
When it comes to jobs, many people will stay in a job that they absolutely hate in the name of a paycheck.
Check this video out and let me know what you think about the idea, "I don't need a job!" I suggest you skip to 32:55 to get straight to the message. The beginning of the video is the praise and worship part of the service.
Always wishing you Peace, Love, and Many Blessings~

and the Lord answered me and set me free.

Let God Lead You In Business
What a day, what a day and it's still going. I had the opportunity to make it onto a webinar with Mia Davies, a successful internet business entrepreneur and wonderful woman with a heart for God.
Her webinar was entitled, "Discover How To Turn Your Business Into The Mission Field God Intended It To Be." I would have known nothing about this webinar had I not been on Facebook this morning between taking customer calls for some of my corporate clients.
I also learned that In-N-Out Burger is a christian company, which I had not idea about. I actually ate at In-N-Out Burger last night and posted the picture of my meal in Instagram.
What I didn't add in the picture was he fact that In-N-Out Burger has bible verses written on their cups and burger wrappers.
Who would have known!?You have to know that I was so excited about the fact that the owners of this company are sharing the word of god while sharing the worlds greatest burgers, fries and shakes! :) Let this be inspiration for you as well to know that you can prosper and succeed in business while serving God too!
We do not have to leave God out of business in order to be successful or try to fit in. He created us to stand out!
I am so excited to be led by God on a continuous basis. He is directing my every step in all of my business endeavors and I am so grateful.
I'm not sure if or when Mia Davies will have another Live Webinar on the subject, but you can follow her on facebook HERE and visit her webiste http://miadavies.com
I'm off to do some coaching with my daughter to get her through some of her school lessons, but I want to encourage you all to continue to seek God in all you do, including your business endeavors. He will lead you. With him we have garaunteed success not only in business, but in life!
Much Love, Peace, and Prosperity to you and yours ALWAYS~

Mid-Week Bible Study Review: The Holy Spirit Is Not an IT. He is a PERSON!
I wanted to share my mid-week bible study lesson with you all. How often do you communicate with your helper, The Holy Spirit?
John 14:26 But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.
Mark 16:17-18New Living Translation (NLT) 17 These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe: They will cast out demons in my name, and they will speak in new languages.[a] 18 They will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them. They will be able to place their hands on the sick, and they will be healed.”
Have a great rest of the week!
Be blessed!

If you could go back in time, would you shoot Adolf Hitler before he killed six million Jews?
I know you're probably wondering why I would do a blog post about this. Well read on... :)
Today was definitely one of those days. I got off to a late start. But at least I got through all of my daughters lessons and got some work done! :)
I was supposed to be up early and out to my Tuesday Praisercise class for my workout, but it didn't work out that way, considering I was up until 4:00 AM watching some very interesting videos with my husband.
He's usually up late, considering he's a recording artist. He comes alive in the night time! lol I was off of my computer by 2:00 AM and I just knew that I was gonna get enough rest to make my class, but when I walked into his studio and saw what he was watching I just had to watch along with him.
I couldn't find the videos that we watched where 2 Athiest and 2 Christians had a full on debate about whether or not there is a God, but this is one of the videos that we watched....
"180" Documentary, produced by Living Waters, founded by Ray Comfort in 1974- In the video, Ray asked people if they would shoot Adolf Hitler if they had the chance. Is Ray advocating vigilantism?
"In “180” people were asked that if they were back in time, would they shoot Adolf Hitler before he killed six million Jews? Many said they would. But would they also shoot the other Nazi leaders, if they had foreknowledge of what they were about to do? How about Jeffery Dahmer? Would they take him out if they knew that he was going to murder 16 young men? How many murders does someone have to commit to qualify for their vigilantism? In other words, who is calling the shots? I'm not a pacifist, but it's my conviction that we should never take the law into our own hands, and kill anyone." ~ Ray Comfort
Was that video deep or what!? I'd love to know what your thoughts are on the subject matter. Leave me a comment with your thoughts.
Once I find the other videos that we watched with the Athiest vs. Christian debate I will share it here on the blog. I have to ask the hubby what the heck he was watching. lol
If you want more information on "180" or Project Heart Changer visit http://heartchanger.com
Always wishing you success in Love and Life and Many, Many Blessings!

Housewives' Song by Maron with Lyrics
-
So I have a new favorite song! The lyrics are beautiful and I've learned that listening to this song in the morning is a great way to start the day!Check it out....Much blessings to you and yours!Monique Bradford ~The WifeyMommyPreneur
Lyrics
Don’t look for your beauty in the eyes of your children
Don’t look for your beauty in the eyes of your man
Don’t look for your beauty in the eyes of the world
Your beauty, you’ll find it in the Lord
Don’t look for your worth in your friendships
Don’t look for your worth in your pay
Don’t look for your worth in the things you do each day
Your worth now, you’ll find it in the Lord
‘Cause it’s like a mirror looking in
When you find the strength to stand
It’s not you, it’s the Father inside
And when the storm clouds pass on through
And they’re only raining on you
Run for cover, in the Father you can hideDon’t look for your strength in your coffee
Don’t look for your strength in your routine
Don’t look for your strength in your diet and exercise
Your strength, you’ll find it in the LordDon’t look for your rest in the glow of the television
Don’t look for your rest on the telephone
Don’t look for your rest in the shopping mall, sister
Your rest, you’ll find it in the Lord‘Cause it’s like a mirror looking in
When you find the strength to stand
It’s not you, it’s the Father inside
And when the storm clouds pass on through
And they’re only raining on you
Run for cover, in the Father you can hideCharm is deceiving and beauty is passing
But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised
He said, “Come unto me all you weak and heavy laden
And I will give you rest.”They that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength
They shall rise with wings as the eagle
They shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint
Teach me Lord, teach me Lord to wait“My strength is made perfect in your weakness.”
He said, “My strength is made perfect in your weakness.”Wait on the Lord, be of good courage and now He shall strengthen your heartJust wait on the Lord….Words and music by Maron Gaffron

Prayer And Scripture Of The Day
I have truly been enjoying my Christmas Vacation. My daughter is out of school for a week, which means I can let my teacher hat rest for a while. I'm still giving her lessons, but I don't have to keep such a strict schedule.
I've been taking this opportunity to spend some much needed time in prayer and boy am I feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and renewed! I've also been doing a lot of reading.
Tonight, after putting my daughter to bed, I decided to take a stroll over to one of my favorite authors website. Her name is Stormie Omartian. She is the writer of the book, "The Power Of A Praying Wife." I was looking around the house for my copy of the book and remembered that I gave it to one of my friends. It is a great book.
Below is the prayer of the day that's posted on her website. May it be a blessing to you, as it has been a blessing to me!
Wishing you Mo'Love, Mo'Peace and Mo'Money~

When I Need Greater Faith
Lord, I worship You and give You the glory due Your name. I worship You in the beauty of Your holiness. I thank You that as I praise You, You are bringing my life into alignment with Your purposes. Help me to sing Your praises even when I wake up troubled in the night. Even when my soul is heavy and I don't feel like singing at all, I pray that You would put a song in my heart that rises out of me and sends away the dark clouds. Help me to know Your Word so well that I can sing of it in my praise to You. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
Let the saints be joyful in glory; let them sing aloud on their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand.

Video: The science behind Ephesians 5:31 - "A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one."
One of my Facebook friends shared this video today. I thought it was very interesting...
Ephesians 5:31 says:
| |||
I never really completely understood what that meant until I watched this video and found out the science behind it. This is just more proof to me that God is indeed very real!
I'd love to hear your opinions on this. Leave me a comment with your thoughts on the video.

Middle of the night/morning devotional.
I will meditate on your precepts and have respect to your ways [the paths of life marked out by your law]. I will delight myself in your statutes; I will not forget your word. Deal bountifully with your servent, that I may live; and I will observe your word [hearing, receiving, loving, and obeying it]. Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.
Psalm 119:15-18 (Amp)

Is Thanksgiving A Pagan Holiday?
Here I go again... being the party pooper. But somebody has got to tell the TRUTH! I shared the truth about Holloween being a pagan holiday with all of my Facebook friends on Holloween. I didn't post it on my blog, but I will so that you can check that out.
Now, let's get into the true meaning of Thanksgiving. Lord knows I love Turkey, Ham, Greens, Dressing, Cranberry Sauce, Gravy, Pie, Macarroni and Cheese and all that GOOD stuff! But why do we make all this good food on this particular day and celebrate "Thanksgiving"? Have you ever wondered?
I know you heard the story in school about the pilgrims and the indians and all that..... blah, blah, blah... I don't even want to go into it. But have you ever researched it on your own? We all know you can't just take everything you hear and believe it. So why do we think everything we learned in school is 100% true or not go deeper to find out the whole story?
It reminds me of all of the people on Facebook that were sending out the message about Facebook charging people a fee for their account. I was so tired to seeing the posts and I could not believe how many people were just blindly spreading the message without doing a lick of research. That's pretty scary if you ask me!
Anyhow, one of my Youtube friends put up 2 good videos about the true pagan meaning of Thanksgiving... and like I said, don't even just take her word for it... do your own research to find out for yourself! That is if you care enough to do so.
Wishing you success in Love and Life,

Bible Study - Monday, October 17, 2011
I have been working since last night on branding WifeyMommyPreneur. I have totally changed the website, yet again as you can see and I'm still building pages that focus in on what WifeyMommyPreneur stands for. My mind needed to rest so I decided to pick up my bible and read.
Here's what I read tonight:
"Not Philosophy but Christ"
Colossians 2
1For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
2That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
3In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
4And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
5For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
6As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
7Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
8Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
9For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
10And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
11In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
12Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
13And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
14Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
17Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
18Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
20Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
21(Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
23Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
Colossians 3
"Not Calamity but Christ"
1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
11Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
12Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
14And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
"The Christian Home"
18Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
20Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
22Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God;
23And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
25But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
