Message summary & scripture references

Many married entrepreneurs are frustrated because their spouse doesn’t believe in or support their vision. Why? Because God gave you the vision, not your spouse. Your faith has been activated to see something that doesn’t exist yet, so you can believe the vision without seeing proof. However, your spouse may not have received a word from God about it, so they don’t have a basis for faith yet, which means they will need to see some tangible proof. In today’s Daily Word, we are going to explore the concept of asking God to provide your spouse with proof of success so your spouse can get on board with the vision.

Deuteronomy 18:21-22 KJV

[21] And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord hath not spoken?
[22] When a prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.

Joshua 3:7-13,17 KJV

[7] And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.
[8] And thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye are come to the brink of the water of Jordan, ye shall stand still in Jordan.
[9] And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, Come hither, and hear the words of the Lord your God.
[10] And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites.
[11] Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passeth over before you into Jordan.
[12] Now therefore take you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, out of every tribe a man.
[13] And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the Lord , the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of Jordan, that the waters of Jordan shall be cut off from the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand upon an heap.
[17] And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people were passed clean over Jordan.

Matthew 4:23-24 KJV

[23] And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
[24] And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.
