The Goodness of God!

 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Psalm 27:13 

God is good, isn't He.  I want to thank you for those that responded to my previous blog (part of listed again below).  

This past week, the Lord has been speaking to me that He will bless the work of my hands.   At first, I was like, but what do I do with my hands that you can bless.  I'm kind of a literal person.  Well, duh.  He said when you write, when you blog, when you type, when you post to social media, when you cook for others, when you lay hands and pray for others, I will bless that.   This morning, He said, blog again and let others know what I am doing for you.  He wants you to know that the prayers you have been praying are being answered.  He is a good God.

1.  Back to Thrive Life - when the Lord told me to start doing this again in October, I agreed. I knew in my gut it was time.   I really am amazed at how many people are getting prepared for what may be pretty bad food shortages and hyper inflation on food, gas and other things.  I just read this - large food distributor burns down https://www.columbiagorgenews.com/fire-destroys-azure-standard-headquarter-facility/article_7df4657c-c03e-11ec-a8c2-5f88e266c6db.html

This past month or so, the Lord has brought me a few customers/consultants that are stocking up big time... by that I mean, one has spent $23,000 already.  Freeze dried food companies are barely keeping up.  So much product going in and out of stock.   That should concern you some and also encourage you to prepare.   Because of the increase in sales,  I have moved up the ranks 4 levels this month alone and am soooooo close to the next level.  (That happened literally overnight and I was so in awe of what God did, I cried tears of JOY - experiencing His goodness.    Totally unexpected!!!  And if that wasn't enough, one of the corporate employees messaged me this week and said that I was on target for the annual getaway trip.   I've heard of it, but definitely it wasn't in view or a goal.   So I checked into the trip.  It is 5 days and 4 nights in Cancun at https://www.barcelo.com/en-us/    - It includes hotel, flights, 3 meals a day at six 5 star restaurants and incredible sandy beaches.   Ken and I have been praying for a vacation for some time.  The last one we had was in 2010!!!    This would be amazing!    I feel like the Lord is telling me He will bless my hands and help us to get there!  We will see.   I only need $4500 in sales in April to reach the next goal.... 

My heart is not to beat people over the heads to buy, but to educate and help them make good choices for themselves and their family.  If the blessings come, all credit to God.   Let me give you an example this week.  A consultant of mine ordered around $9300 in food.  When I saw her order, it showed Retail and she paid over $600 in shipping.   So I called her and long story short, we called customer service together, changed it over to Monthly Delivery so she was able to save 15% and got FREE shipping.  God blessed me by helping her -she increased her food order to over $10,000.      

2.  Thank you to those who felt led to sow into us.  Your support helped us with a chunk of our tax bill.  It brought me to tears again.   I am so emotional lately with God's love and goodness.  Even know things aren't completely where I want them to be, I am seeing His hand and heart!

3.  And for those that have been praying for my healing.... it's coming.   I am seeing some improvement in the pain I've had in my back for almost 3 years now.  It seems like morning to late afternoon, the pain is quite tolerable... and then by early evening until bed, the pain creeps up.   I am thankful for any and all reprieve.  I've dealt with pain and health issues for 38 years now and I am extra worn out.   Sleep is better than 2-4 hours and yet still asking God for more consistent and continuous sleep.  It takes a while to fall asleep and I wake up often leaving me exhausted.  But the good news - there is improvement and God is working hard to bring me into healing!  I feel it!   I have also been using red light therapy - which I feel the Lord led me to - it can actually heal at a cellular level.  I've been doing this 3-5x a week for a few months - that may be the improvements I am seeing.  I think so! 

The Lord will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. Deuteronomy 28:12 

I feel led to ask again... here are a few ways you can help us = we still have credit card debt that we are trying hard to pay off - this is because of unexpected expenses & just the cost of living.  It's expensive here in MT.   We are also trying to get to KC in June... surprise Ken's folks for a family reunion, see the many friends we did NOT get to see or say goodbye too.   With Ken not having vacation pay and gas prices, we have a big need.

1.  Facebook Marketing - which I have room for one or two more accounts - this is where I help market your business or ministry on Facebook.  I have had 30+ years sales and marketing and the last 8 years doing Facebook. I took over 40 hours of training and am still actively pursuing further knowledge on how to increase traffic to your page and build a customer base.  I have had huge success with several companies over the years.  I am really geared towards small business.   So if you know of anyone who might want my services, I'd love to chat.

2.  I am also actively doing Thrive Life - long term food storage.   This is great for people who don't like the preparation to cook meals everyday, great for singles & families - no waste, fresh food.  25 year shelf life unopened & 1 year opened (with just a few exceptions).   Kids even love this - they'll eat vegetables right out of the can.   This food is amazing!  You can buy other products in the big box stores or online, but if you were to compare side by side - you would find this is far superior in quality and nutrition.  Thrive Life is the leading company out there.  They are proactive -and offer non-gmo, organic and mostly organic (some items they haven't paid for that label as to keep prices down).   They are a great company to work for.  For those that know me, know I am a foodie.   I've tried many other companies brands before I found this and this is the product I believe in and KNOW is good!   

With the ever increasing need to be prepared, food shortages, inflation, this is something I feel the Lord has asked me to be committed to.  You can check out my website at https://michelecole.thrivelife.com.   There are 3 ways that help me.        You can have a tasting party - and I can do it even long distance - over zoom! 

     a.  Be a customer - start a monthly delivery (can skip months) with a budget you can afford and prepare for what's here and coming.    If you bought from me before but went inactive, we can reactivate your account under my name.    By choosing monthly delivery  over $99 you get free shipping & a 15% discount.  They offer monthly sales that are worth looking at too!   Even the news channels are reporting to expect food shortages!!!!!  

     b.  Refer people to my website who may want to store food.  If you are a customer, you get a referral link.  When you share that link -you get discounts and free food when they order. 

     c.  Become a consultant - hear me out - you don't have to sell unless you want too.  People become consultants for several reasons.  One - they get paid 5% on everything they spend over $50. Did you hear that - you get paid on your own orders.  Two - if you share with friends and family you can build a residual income & earn free food.  Especially in the first 100 days.  Three - some (me) are wanting this to be a way to earn serious cash.  Yes, this is a MLM company - but there compensation plan can be quite lucrative.  I'm still learning all about this... there are some consultants who are "inactive" and still making 6 figures off residual sales  That would be my goal - not to be inactive -but to make a nice living so we can really step into full time ministry when God opens that door.  This would fund that!  

3.  We are trying to sell our timeshares.  We have two.  We have moved away from the area and there is no chance we will get back to use them.  

     Branson - http://rocklane.com/branson-yacht-club/

     2 bedroom, 2 full bath - sleeps 6, full amenities, kitchen, wifi - on the lake - beautiful views.  Down the street from Silver Dollar City.  Quite, peaceful location.   You get to use it 1 week every ODD year for life (but they are flexible on that).  You can also break it up to 3 nights and 4 nights in any given year.  Annual dues $330.  We are asking $5000 (includes closing costs).  Will consider other offers.  You can rent it out when not using yourself and get $500-$750 a week.  We've done that often throughout the years.  This is something you own and can pass down through inheritance.  You can also subscribe to RCI and trade this week for anywhere else.  We did that a couple of times. Branson has great trading ability.  

    Lake of the Ozarks -       http://www.lakeview-resort.com

    This is a studio condo- sleeps 4 - but more comfortable for just 2.  Kitchen & bath.  On the lake - full amenities.  Great out of the way location.  Annual dues $230.  We are asking $3500 (includes closing costs).  This is 1 week a year anytime for life.  

Oh... and great news, I am finally finally finally beginning to write books!  The Lord has put three books on my heart to get written - years ago, He actually put them on my heart.  With my health, lack of sleep it's been challenging to even consider writing.  I began this week and I am encouraged!   

Please let me know how I can pray for you - and how I can celebrate God's goodness with you! 

Hugs, love and prayers.

Vision

God has given us a vision to build a retreat property along with ministry equipping center.  

The retreat portion of our ministry is to provide a safe place for pastors, lay leaders & other ministry folks to come and be refreshed & encouraged through prophetic ministry (if wanted).  We will offer private cabins with kitchens & full bathrooms, and plenty of places to roam on the property to get quiet with the Lord. 

We will offer other specialty retreats - marriage, healing, prophetic teaching & activating people into the world & health and wellness retreats and more.  

The Lord has graced us with the desire to come alongside the Church - to bring healing, deliverance & freedom to new/newer believers.  We are not wanting to replace their church, but better help them be ready to serve in their church. 

In our community building - we will eventually have a 24/7 prayer room, healing & prophetic rooms and a place for community worship services for those on the property.  

Our passion is to minister to a lost & hurting world.   To equip the saints to do the same and to be a blessing to our community and surrounding areas.  Our hopes are that we can pour out God's love in a mighty way to bring more and more souls into the Kingdom, get them discipled, called into their purpose & destiny and released to do God's business!!!!  We also have a passion to give generously to help those in need and to help others launch into their God given destinies.
