and choices to avoid a total derailment of his or her finances. With sometimes
very little to spare, some seem to always find the funds they need to get the
things they want, and yet, when it comes to their music ministry, it sometimes
suffers at the hands of such things as getting the hair and nails done, and the
best outfit for that very special occasion that seem to happen every week!
As one who makes major sacrifices for my ministry, I pride myself in giving up the "finer things in life" to avoid running this God-given opportunity to ruins; I pride myself in excellence, and as such it bothers me a lot when some people take theirs for granted and treat it any kind of way reflected by their words and actions.
I bring this up to say that, there's a difference between those who want to sing because they know that they can, and those who want to sing because they know that God gave them the talent to minister to others and help to change lives. Too many artists are singing just because they can sing; they do not have a message, a word and a desire for ministry, they just want to show off their vocal abilities. Too often the listeners try to get a word and there's absolutely none to be had, just pure entertainment.
Are you missing out on your blessings as artists; is this the reason why some cannot move their careers forward because they're going about it the wrong way; will you take a moment to stop, identify this problem and fix it?
Let's face it, if you allow God to lead your ministry completely you will see a complete turn-around, stop trying to be celebrities - you're not selling enough records to justify that action, and ladies, start dressing like ladies and not like you're on a night out to the clubs. Gentlemen, for Christ's sake dress decently and pull your pants up, don't tell me that you have to be all thugged out to get your message across...what's up with the increasing number of tattoos and body piercings on Christian folks?
When people look at you what do they see, a Christian artist, a minister of the gospel or a celebrity? I know that you want to reach everyone and you simply cannot, so be yourself and approach your ministry with class, dignity and a spiritual focus and see how things start working in your favor.. take your message and your ministry seriously and others will take you seriously.
