It’s Time for You to Accelerate

Gary Keesee • June 12, 2018

I drove a car off a cliff.

And not just any car—I drove a Ferrari off a cliff.

Have you lost your mind, Gary? This is no way to open a post!

I haven’t even gotten to the best part.

After I drove the Ferrari off the cliff, unbuckled my seat belt, and jumped out, I…

Well, you really just need to see the video. Yes, there’s a video. Our team created this awesome video for this year’s Provision Conference, and you need to see it.

Because it’s really about YOUR life…

It’s about ignoring the roadblocks the enemy puts in your path.

It’s about God making a way when it looks like there’s no way.

It’s about not slowing down or stopping, but pushing the accelerator.

Friend, you have something the world needs—something specific God designed you to do.

Whether you realize it or not, you have incredible potential. God has called you to do something great. He has given you gifts and talents that the world needs. He has a dream and a plan for your life.

You have a purpose and an assignment, and it’s time for you to ACCELERATE into the life God has for you. It’s time for you to double your speed, double your vision, and double your focus.

It’s time for you to have God’s double portion for your life and to make an impact for His Kingdom.

As an important friend of this ministry, we want to help you.

We want to help you change your mind-set—your thinking—to one of opportunity and acceleration. We want to help you jump-start your future.

You can go to the next level.

You don’t have to keep doing things the hard way, the small way, or the slow way.

Of course, God’s system isn’t instantaneous. Success in the Kingdom of God happens one small decision at a time. You have to walk it out, get the training you need, and pass some tests. We all do.

God will train you and raise you up with the capacity to handle the specific assignment He has for you, and He’ll also line up people to help you along the way.

That’s where the 2018 Provision Conference comes in.

God brought together an incredible team of people at the 2018 Provision Conference—a team of people whose mission is to coach YOU to your next level and to help you accomplish your assignment.

You need the life-changing messages from the 2018 Provision Conference.

You need to hear for yourself everything that was taught at the conference about the principles of the Kingdom of God, doing things God’s way, sticking to your assignment, and so much more.

We know these mentorship messages will inspire you and allow God to cast vision for your life. We believe they’ll help you recognize the ideas God has been downloading for you and how to walk them out; and they’ll help you discover your potential and hone in on exactly what your “something specific” might be.

Even if you were there, you should get your copy, so you can listen to these messages again and again!

“But isn’t Provision your ‘entrepreneurs’ conference, Gary? I’m not an entrepreneur.”

It’s true that the Provision Conference does draw a lot of entrepreneurs, but it’s really about business—specifically, the business of making money to fund the Kingdom of God.

And whether you recognize it right now or not, YOU have the power to produce something, make something, or do something to capture money, change your life, and further the Kingdom of God just as much as any other entrepreneur.

You just need mentoring and coaching.

And that’s what the Provision Conference is all about. And this isn’t just your day-to-day mentoring and coaching. No, we specifically line up the best of the best—leaders in the faith and prominent leaders in their industries, leaders with amazing stories who are doing extraordinary things—to help you accomplish your God-designed assignment.

This year, we lined up two of the best keynote speakers: Dave Hodgson and Dr. Dean Radtke.

Dave has an amazing story you absolutely have to hear for yourself. He grew up in Africa during the turbulent ‘60s and ‘70s, was conscripted into the Rhodesian Army, and joined the Secret Air Service. Later, he joined the highly secretive Selous Scouts, and then fought as a mercenary.

Eventually, he immigrated to Australia, where he came to know Jesus during an amazing encounter at a Reinhard Bonnke crusade.

Dave is the Founder and Managing Director of the Paladin Corporation, which owns more than $850 million worth of business acquisitions. He also founded Kingdom Investors, a marketplace ministry, which has spread around Australia and overseas.

Dave’s two sessions hit hard as he shared the critical Kingdom principles he’s learned over the years that have taken his companies from “below zero” to being worth more than $100 million and influencing the culture.

I love how Dave uses the term “spiritual logic,” and his personal story left me shaking my head in disbelief, but what impacted me the most in his sessions was the remarkable story he shared about how God worked through a dire financial situation. That story alone makes the whole Provision Conference teachings worth getting!

Dr. Dean Radtke is the Founder and CEO of The Institute of Ministry Management & Leadership, and has more than 35 years of senior corporate and ministry leadership and management experience. Having worked directly for Admiral John S. McCain, U.S. Atlantic Fleet; James E. Preston, Chairman, Avon Products, Inc.; Les Wexner, Chairman, The Limited, Inc.; multi-billion dollar, Fortune 500 companies; and as Executive Director for Pastor Rod Parsley, Breakthrough Television, and World Harvest Church, Dr. Radtke is in great demand as a professional and personal performance coach.

We’ve had the privilege of knowing Dean for many years now. Dean is an incredible coach and mentor, especially for leaders and pastors who are on the brink of quitting and are in desperate need of hope. I should know; I was one of them.

Dean and his systems completely changed our lives years ago when we found ourselves needing better processes in place to help us more effectively lead our growing ministry and an infusion of hope that things could eventually get better. It was a great honor to have him at the Provision Conference both to encourage everyone there and to share his tremendous knowledge on business, management, and leadership in his two main sessions and in his workshops.

Both Dave and Dean packed so much knowledge on provision and going to the next level in their sessions—you MUST hear them for yourself!

In addition to the four main sessions with Dave Hodgson and Dr. Dean Radtke, Drenda also shared a powerful main session message about the tactics the enemy uses to get you off of your God-designed mission. You need to see the footage she shared from when she allowed our granddaughter Ivory to apply her makeup and hear what happened afterwards. It’s a hilarious peek into our life as grandparents.

I also led two critically important main sessions about God’s Sabbath Rest and the double portion. You absolutely need to hear Arthur’s story at the end of my first session. It’s an undeniably encouraging story of how God restores above and beyond what the enemy steals! And you don’t want to miss the six reasons why people never discover or tap into the double portion that I shared during my second main session, because I don’t want that to be you!

You need a copy. Really. I can’t emphasize enough how important it is that you get your own copy of the 2018 Provision Conference main sessions and workshops.

I promise you these teachings will help you change your life, reach further, be stronger, move faster, and accelerate into the future God has for you.

Are You Taking Care of God’s Business?

By Gary Keesee • April 14, 2025
Reading Time 3 mins 8 secs – Let me ask you something. Are you truly concerned about God’s business? Or are you more focused on your own? That might be a tough question, but it’s one we all have to answer at some point. The truth is, when we align our lives with God’s agenda, everything else begins to fall into place. Jesus made it clear in Luke 2:49 (NKJV) when He said, “Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?” He was focused. He understood that His life was about fulfilling a divine purpose, not just going through the motions of everyday existence. And guess what? The same applies to you and me. God’s Business First A lot of people are trying to build their own lives, solve their own problems, and make their own way—only to end up frustrated, tired, and lacking. But Matthew 6:33 (NIV) gives us a powerful principle: “Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” That means if we take care of God’s business, He’ll take care of ours. I’ve seen this firsthand in my own life and in the lives of countless others. When we align our time, energy, and resources with what God is doing, He ensures that we never lack what we need. Provision follows purpose. Philippians 4:19 (NIV) reminds us, “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” When we prioritize His business, He supplies all we need. What Does It Mean to Be About God’s Business? Being about God’s business isn’t just about working in ministry. It means bringing Kingdom principles into everything we do—our careers, our families, our finances, and even our daily conversations. It means: Using your talents and skills to make an impact for God’s Kingdom : “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters” (Colossians 3:23, NIV). Handling your finances according to His Word, not just worldly wisdom : “Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine” (Proverbs 3:9–10, NIV). Being led by the Holy Spirit in decision-making, rather than reacting to circumstances : “For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God” (Romans 8:14, NIV). Viewing your work as a mission field, wherever you are. Stepping into Your Kingdom Assignment Too often, people are waiting for God to bless them before they take action. But that’s backward! When you step into your Kingdom assignment—when you take that step of faith and prioritize what God is doing—then provision, opportunities, and success start flowing your way. That’s how the Kingdom works. James 2:17b (NIV) tells us, “Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.” God has called you to make a difference, to live with purpose, and to operate in the blessings of the Kingdom. But it starts with a choice: Will you focus on His business, or will you continue trying to figure things out on your own? Make the Shift Today If you’ve been struggling, feeling stuck, or wondering why things aren’t working, take a moment to check your focus. Are you aligned with God’s business? Are you seeking His Kingdom first? Proverbs 16:3 (NIV) encourages us, “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.” When you trust Him and put Him first, He will lead you to success. I challenge you today: Make the shift. Start putting God’s agenda before your own, and watch how He transforms every area of your life. His business is the best business to be in! Let’s go after it together! Watch the full message here: Are You Concerned About God's Business?

Occupy Your Destiny: Finding Your Purpose in a World of Distraction

By Gary Keesee • March 18, 2025
Reading Time 2 mins 52 secs – Have you ever felt like there’s more to life than what you’re currently experiencing? That nagging sense that you were created for something greater, yet you’re not quite sure what it is or how to step into it? You’re not alone. Many people go through life knowing deep down that they have a specific purpose—a destiny to fulfill—but they struggle to identify it and take the necessary steps to walk in it. But here’s the truth: You weren’t just saved to survive; you were saved to occupy! You were created with a unique assignment and a position of influence in this world. Your destiny isn’t just about achieving personal success; it’s about fulfilling your Kingdom purpose. Moving Beyond Deliverance to Destiny One of the biggest traps believers fall into is celebrating deliverance but never stepping into their destinies. Think about it—have you ever experienced a breakthrough in your life? Maybe you got out of debt, overcame an addiction, or walked away from a toxic situation. But instead of pressing forward, you found yourself simply enjoying your newfound freedom without any real direction. Here’s the problem: Deliverance is never permanent unless you learn to occupy! The enemy will always try to reclaim territory in your life. If you don’t move forward into your destiny, you risk falling back into old cycles. Your breakthrough is just the beginning, not the end. God didn’t free you so you could sit still. He freed you so you could step into your purpose and advance His Kingdom! Understanding Your Authority To occupy your destiny, you have to understand the authority God has given you. Too many believers live far below their potential because they don’t recognize the authority they carry. Authority isn’t about how powerful you feel; it’s about knowing your legal standing. Think about a police officer directing traffic. Cars don’t stop because the officer has the physical strength to stop them. They stop because of the badge —the authority the officer represents. It’s the same with you. Your authority doesn’t come from your abilities. It comes from the One you represent. But here’s the key: You can’t walk in authority unless you’re also submitted to authority. Finding Your Place in God’s Organizational Chart Have you ever considered where you fit in God’s organizational chart? Your destiny is directly tied to understanding your role and responsibilities in the Kingdom. Ask yourself: Where has God called me to be? What unique gifts and abilities do I bring? Who has God placed in authority over me? Who has He placed in my care? When you’re in the right place—operating within your assigned role—things work smoothly, and God’s authority flows properly in your life . The Power of Staying Submitted One of the biggest challenges in stepping into your destiny is staying submitted —especially when you disagree or face correction. Your maturity isn’t measured by your talent or your age. It’s measured by your ability to remain submitted even when it’s difficult . Think about how quickly you want to defend yourself when criticized. Do you get offended? Do you want to quit? That’s a sign of immaturity that can derail your destiny. Submission isn’t about control; it’s about protection. When you remain under authority, you position yourself for greater authority and greater Kingdom impact. Moving Forward with Confidence As you step into your destiny, God will provide everything you need —the right people, the right resources, and the right opportunities to fulfill your assignment. The double portion is already yours! When you align yourself with God’s plan and operate under His authority, you’ll find that He supplies “exceedingly, abundantly above all that you could ask or think” (Ephesians 3:20). So, are you ready to move beyond just celebrating your freedom to actually occupying your place of influence ? Your destiny is waiting. It’s time to take possession of what’s rightfully yours! What area of authority has God placed in your hands? How are you occupying that space for His Kingdom?

Leave the Junk Back in 2024 & Make 2025 Your Best Year Yet

By Gary Keesee • January 8, 2025
Reading Time 4 mins 39 secs – You know, every January, people talk about starting fresh—setting New Year’s resolutions and trying to reset their lives physically, emotionally, financially, and spiritually. And that’s great. But how many times have we found ourselves setting the same resolutions year after year, only to abandon them a few days, weeks, or a month later? This year, I want to challenge you to think differently. Instead of focusing only on what you want to achieve in 2025, let’s also take a hard look at what you need to leave behind in 2024. Sometimes, the biggest breakthroughs come not from what we gain but from what we let go of. Here are three things to leave behind as you step into God’s best for your life in 2025: 1. Insecurities Let’s talk about insecurity for a second. It’s a sneaky thief. It keeps you stuck, paralyzed, and doubting whether you’re capable of doing what God called you to do. Insecurity is not from God. It's the enemy’s tactic to rob you of your destiny. God made you on purpose, for a purpose, and He doesn’t make mistakes. Genesis 1:27 says you were created in His image. That means you have His DNA—His creativity, power, and potential—inside of you. Stop comparing yourself to someone else’s highlight reel. Stop trying to fix yourself with things that don’t matter—more stuff, more status, or other people’s opinions. God has already given you everything you need to walk confidently into your calling. Here’s what to do: Spend time reminding yourself what God says about you. When insecurity tries to creep in, stand firm on the Word of God. Write down affirmations based on Scripture, and speak them out loud! Your words carry power. Be confident in this truth: God chose you for this moment, this season, and this purpose. Let 2025 be the year you leave insecurity in the rearview mirror. You have too much ahead to let fear hold you back. 2. Complaining I’m going to be real with you: complaining is one of the fastest ways to keep yourself stuck. It focuses all your energy on what’s wrong instead of what God’s doing. And the Bible makes it clear: “The tongue has the power of life and death” (Proverbs 18:21a, NIV). What are you speaking over your life? Complaining doesn’t just create negativity; it’s a mindset. When you constantly dwell on the problems, you miss the solutions God is already providing. So, what’s the alternative? Gratitude. Gratitude is a weapon. It shifts your focus and aligns your thinking with God’s promises. Here’s how to flip the script: Start a gratitude list. Write down three things you’re thankful for every day. Train your mind to focus on what God is doing, not what isn’t going right. Catch yourself. When you start to complain, pause and say, “What can I be grateful for in this moment?” Get perspective. Ask yourself, “Is this going to matter a year from now?” Most of the time, the things we complain about aren’t worth the energy. When you retrain your mind to focus on the good, you’ll find that joy and strength naturally follow. The Bible says, “The joy of the Lord is your strength” (Nehemiah 8:10b, NIV). Let’s lean into that joy in 2025. 3. Toxic Relationships We’ve all been there. Relationships can be a blessing, but some relationships weigh you down, pull you away from God’s plan, and drain your energy. Toxic relationships aren’t just in romantic settings. They can show up in friendships, family, or work environments too. If someone is constantly pulling you away from your purpose, making you question your worth, or keeping you from stepping into God’s best, it’s time to set some boundaries. And listen: this doesn’t mean cutting off people entirely. Boundaries don’t mean you stop loving people. They mean you stop letting their dysfunction control your life. Ask yourself: Is this relationship pushing me closer to God or pulling me away? Does this person consistently build me up, or do they tear me down? When you let go of relationships that aren’t aligned with where God is taking you, you make space for the right people—people who will encourage you, challenge you, and grow with you. I’m Sure You Can Think of More Things to Leave Behind… This list is just a starting point. Maybe for you, it’s leaving behind procrastination, negative thoughts, or the fear of failure. Maybe it’s doubt, pride, or the need to control everything. Whatever it is, take some time to reflect. Ask yourself: What’s holding me back from stepping into the life God has for me? We all have things we’ve been carrying for far too long—things that don’t belong in the next chapter of our lives. This year, don’t just focus on what you’re reaching for; get intentional about what you’re letting go of. There’s power in leaving behind what no longer (or never did) serve God’s purpose for you. Stepping Into 2025 Here’s the good news: You don’t have to navigate this alone. God didn’t design you to do life by yourself. Surround yourself with people who will speak life into you, remind you of God’s promises, and stand with you in faith. You won’t always get it right—and that’s okay. Nobody succeeds at everything all the time. But when you fall, God’s grace is there to pick you back up. He’s cheering you on, and so are Drenda and I. As we move forward into 2025, let’s leave behind insecurity, complaining, and toxic relationships. Instead, let’s embrace God’s truth, walk in gratitude, and surround ourselves with the right people.  This is your year to step boldly into what God has called you to do. Let’s make it count.
