Apostle Peter asked Master Jesus, "Lo we have left all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?" Our Lord Jesus knowing that the question mirrored the minds of all His followers, answered, "Verily I say unto you, that ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of His glory, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel." Furthermore, "Everyone that hath forsaken houses or brethren or sisters or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake shall receive an hundred fold, and shall inherit everlasting life." (Matt. 19:27-29).

The apostles, most of who were business gurus heard a new methodology of a hundred percent interest. It took me years to understand that a hundred fold mentioned by Lord Jesus meant "highest reward". I had wondered how one would have in return, one hundred of houses, wives, or, children, and still have the ability to preach the gospel again. However, the highest reward will couple no sorrow. (Prov. 10:22).

The hundred fold or highest reward of blessings which is your dividend as Jesus business partner will reflect on your personal life (i.e. Body, Soul, and Spirit) to turn you to an object of blessings. You will also have dividends reflecting on your finance, family, work, health etc. It is only a business partner that is entitled to a dividend.

Our Lord Jesus declared to us that if truly HE is the source of our Life, we have to bear fruit. Bearing fruit includes multiplication of what we have got from Him. HE said, "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth" (Matt. 28:18). That is including the power to subdue all the powers, principalities, rulers of darkness of this world and spiritual wickedness of all degrees. And power to get wealth (Deut.8:18). God's purpose is to prosper us in every area of our lives. (3 Jn. Vs. 2) How? Financially. Why? To meet our needs and others through us. And to enable us finance His Kingdom business. Amen!

God is looking for partners to His soul winning business: Those who can invest everything they have such as time, money, materials, status into His Kingdom. "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine" (II Tim. 4:2). "But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist [soul-winner], make full proof of thy ministry" (II Tim. 4:5). And you do not have to know everything in the Bible or about life before you start preaching the Gospel. Jesus said His Holy Spirit will teach you all things (Jn. 14:26; 16:7-14). What you need to do is just to remind Jesus of His promises and ask the Holy Spirit to take charge. I know HE can never fail in His duty.

"Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And, these signs shall follow those who believe: in my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover" (Mk. 16:15-18).

Soul winning, in all honesty, is not always an easy task, but there is joy in it even though at times the devil may confront you both spiritually and physically. He may attack your finance as well, but be bold and faithful in your giving, you will surely be rewarded. (Please read Matthew 5:10-12.) The Apostles rejoiced even when they were beaten (Read Acts 4, and 5:40-42). Always remember that Jesus has promised to be with you always (Matt. 28:20; Heb. 13:5-6).
