A man who disobeys laws of State is in effect challenging authority of that State -- sovereignty, which means right to rule. Now, when Adam and Eve decided to eat forbidden fruit in exercise of their free will after being deceived to do so by Satan, they were in effect challenging God's legal right to rule. They were effectively saying to God: "We can tell good from bad. It is better for us to be independent of you. We can rule ourselves without you."

That was an affront -- a rebellion against their Creator. So God has allowed man past 6,000 years to see if he can do without his creator. In those years, man has tried every political and economic system. And result?

Helmut Schmidt, former German Chancellor tells us: "We humans . . . have always only partially governed world, and most of time very badly . . . . We have never governed it in total peace". Do you agree with him? With all man's best efforts, do we have peace or pieces of peace? (I am not playing with words.)

But how are we children of Adam and Eve who didn't have a bite at this fruit, concerned in this matter?

It is because of law of genetics. When our first parents disobeyed, they became sinners -- imperfect people. And imperfect parents cannot give birth to perfect children. So we have all inherited result of sin -- suffering and death from Adam and Eve.

Here comes questions:

Question: Why did God plant a forbidden tree in garden? Answer: Because he has right to so, and nobody can challenge him.

Question: Did he know or not that Adam and Eve would eat fruit? Answer: No, he did not know. For God can choose not to know.

Question: Why did he allow Satan to deceive them? Answer: God did not allow it. Satan desired worship, and deceit was his tool.

Question: Why did he not destroy sinning trio? Answer: Because God's purpose of populating earth wil be defeated, and sovereignty issue wil not be resolved.

Question: And who made Satan Devil in first place? Answer: It was not God, because God made perfect angels. One of angels made himself Satan, meaning resister, and Devil meaning liar.

Are you surprised to read this, folks? Do not be amazed. That is Bible fact. The bottomline is bottomline.

We each have within us key to accessing power of God. Through praise and worship, we please God and invite Him to help us. God will not become involved in our lives without our invitation. “I will praise and Lord at all times. His praise will continually be on my lips” (Psalm 34:1). These statements are not merely friendly phrases. Their use can activate fullness of God power. Praise and worship are our “rolling over” song and prayer that enable use to move out of way so that God can help us fulfill His will for our lives. His will is “that you prosper as your soul prospers, (3 John 2).

Being obedient to Word of God will require that you read Word in order to know what Word says for your lives. It means taking time to hear, absorb, question, and learn by “studying to show thyself approved” (II Timothy 2:15). Once you read Word of God, you are responsible for making it part of your daily life. In this way, not unlike Jesus, you can boldly go before God in prayer as his child asking for wisdom and power to change negative situations so that you can be fruitful and multiply in your business and personal life.

For business people, obedience and commitment to Word and will of God is paramount to living successful and fruitful lives. Our “walk” must demonstrate ethical principals. There are no trade-offs or detours.

Each business decision must begin and end with Christ-like attitudes and responses. Professionalism, punctuality, follow up and follow through must be focus. Profit motive, at all cost, must not be standard of operating and profit planning must be tempered with supernatural wisdom and guidance through prayer. In this way, business is built on a solid foundation, not sinking sand.

Non-conforming will be a daily battle, with worldly views and carnal thinking around every turn of operation. It becomes your mandate, therefore, to renew and transform your thinking toward God centered living. Psalm 37:4 advises that we delight ourselves in Lord and he will give us desires of our heart. God wants to give us what we desire, in conformance to His good and perfect will for our lives. We must be vigilant and cautious not to: *Get in a hurry and decide to give God a hand in process *Go ahead of God *Forget to ask God for His will for our lives *Seek His face at all times in all decisions, with all challenges *Wait on Lord with patience and confidence (Faith) that He will see us through *Believe that God knows perfect timing of what we need and that….. *He is working it out for us.

Living “Rollover” life requires that we have an attitude of totally relinquishing power over our lives, in faith, to God. It is a call to separate ourselves from self controlling situations and allowing a power greater and more resourceful and creative to take charge.

Essential elements to this transition includes acceptance that there is a greater power than you, importance of your willingness to submit and cooperate fully, and an openness to trying another way to connect your vision to personal and professional success. Remember, behind scenes, God is working it out.
