Investing Into Your Heavenly Account 3

<p>&nbsp;Wednesday 20th January 2021&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Beautiful Wednesday to you in the name of Jesus. May this be a winning Wednesday for you!&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>We thank God for everything, we thank God for today and for this month.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>We are still talking about “Investing In Your Heavenly Account”</p> <p><br></p> <p>How do we make investments consciously in this our heavenly account so we can enjoy its treasure when we need them?</p> <p><br></p> <p>The Place of Discipline is very important when it comes to investing &nbsp;and we will discuss this more today.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Years ago when I was going to do my industrial attachment as an engineering student, I went to the HR office of the company and the officer asked me “What is your discipline.?” That was the first time I heard the word “discipline” used in that context.

He didn’t say "be disciples", He said "make disciples". Why? Because there is a process to follow in order to come &nbsp;out as a disciple Christ just as there was a process I had to follow to come out as an engineer.
