Using video marketing strategies as a way to promote your ministry or business online can be extremely effective. Let’s face it: Video compels people.
Look at the popular wave of YouTube! YouTube is a video sharing website where users can upload, view and share video clips. YouTube was created in mid-February of 2005 by three former PayPal employees.
The recent statistics of the power of YouTube is amazing.

Ministry Marketing Encouragement To Advance The Kingdom Of God
“Build a bridge and get over it dad,” said my then 5 year old son to his dad correcting him on an issue.
Needless to say…Dave and I were shocked this statement came out of our young son, yet to this day it makes us all laugh (even though THEN it was not a laughing matter.)
This phrase came back to me this week. I was praying about the issue of resistance which seems to come to many people. You may feel it too, as you go forward in your destiny with your ministry/vision.
I had asked the Lord WHY so many anointed and called vessels of honor were not in a place to really go forward in their call and giftings…to have the resources to impact the world right now!
The resistance might be lack, no time, strife in relationships, fear, unbelief, your flesh…And the battle feels like this great wall surrounding the one thing inside that’s keeping you from your destiny. Inside that wall could be that one connection, strategy, resource, person, or revelation that could break you out from the battle into fulfilling your destiny in sharing the message God has given you to the world.
As I was pondering this issue, as clear as day I heard, “BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET OVER IT THERESA!”
It so startled me I looked over to my husband to see if he said it…or heard it! (He just looked at me wondering what caused the look of shock on my face).
So I tried to make sense of it all.
I realize struggles and battles will arise in your ministry/vision pursuit.
How will God move you in position to minister or release the anointing He has place in you?
What people/saints of God will He connect you with to carry out His will?
When will these people and resources manifest?
“The details of the outworking of His will are so cloudy.”
Doubt is one fruit of a spirit that must be demolished.
Fear, if not countered by faith and trust in God, can destroy a dream/vision/ministry that is in the process of being fulfilled and carried out in a life.
“So what’s the bridge God…what do I build,” I asked
It’s simply this, He said…The Bridge is Jesus. You build by making sure the foundation of your work is the Word and His Holy Spirit guiding you…And then you walk in Jesus’ strength, wisdom, and power.
Amidst the process of building that bridge, obey God’s Word (walk by faith). Wait on Him to put the pieces perfectly in place for the fulfillment of the mission He has given you. The manifestation of His glory is in you.
Know that what He calls you to do, He enables. For with Him, nothing is impossible.!
God is placing big things, huge assignments into the hearts of His Kingdom builders. The vision is so large that you can stagger under the weight of it.
You are not called to carry the Kingdom calling, but to walk into it with belief that the One who gave you the call, will bring it to completion. As you take steps of faith, be attentive to His directions, His networking and divine connections.
And keep building…
You may be surprised that this move of the Spirit will not come out of the big and well known “camps” in the Church world, but out of the smaller camps out of the public’s eye. These are the hidden gems, the unknown teachers and masters of faith, who God has been equipping to fulfill His plan in these latter days.
These believers have gone through the fires, faced the wilderness, walked amidst the trials, and are coming forth as tried and true.
They are coming. They are coming.
People will flock to you who need the answers and the Word to help them through a crash.
So, get ready, get ready.
Do what He says.
Build on that relationship with Jesus. Equip yourself now. Pray without ceasing. Seek Him and His Kingdom first in all things.
Banish the fear and replace it with belief. Yield to God and trust His ways.
It’s time for His Church, His Body of true believers, to step up to the plate and hit homer runs for Him. It’s time for His People to be The Church right where they are.
It’s time to arise and open the doors of the hospitals (ministries, churches, organizations) for the broken, wounded, and shell shocked hearts running to find the answers, healing, and deliverance from a world that’s gone mad.
Has He called you?
Is this a part of the vision, the calling, the ministry that you know that you know He has deposited into you, just as His seed was deposited in Mary’s womb?
Magnify Him now as you wait to give birth.
And remember:
Luke 1:37
“For with God nothing will be impossible.”
Luke 1:45
“Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.”
I will pray you continue in being diligent and obedient in following God’s basic directions to build that bridge (your relationship with Jesus), even when the outworking of His will are unclear or unknown.
