Top 5 Support Raising Mistakes

Missionary Confidential posted a link to a new Support Raising Solutions article from BodyBuilders.net called the Top 5 Support Raising Mistakes. It’s a fantastic article with a lot of helpful advice especially for those of us who’ve broken each of these at some point in our ministry. My favorites?

1. I prayed too lightly


WHY oh why do I not pray more?! When I pray…I see God work. When I don’t pray…it seems like His blessings dry up. So, why do I not pray more? I guess I am just a fool. To think I can plan my work and work my plan without bathing “the before, during, and after” in prayer is the height of arrogance and pride and shows precisely where my security is—in myself, instead of God. If I choose to sacrifice time in the prayer closet because I am supposedly too busy, I am literally shooting myself in the foot!

and...

#2. Put a $ on their forehead


I thought I could determine in advance what someone would give. The better off they seemed, the more I expected. Well, not anymore. I have been blessed so many times by the sacrificial giving of those who didn’t seem to have anything to give.

Well worth a read if you’re in the support raising season.
