It’s Time for You to Accelerate

Gary Keesee • Jun 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.

5 Steps to Release the Kingdom in Your Life

By Gary Keesee • 10 Apr, 2024
Reading Time 2 mins 13 secs – In John 6, we read the story of Jesus feeding 5,000 people with five loaves of bread and two fish. Do you know it? It’s where we see Jesus teaching the disciples how to release the Kingdom of God into the earth realm. Basically, a large crowd was following Jesus, listening to Him teach, and watching Him perform miracles. It got to a point where the people needed to eat, and Jesus asked the disciples what they planned to feed the people. Of course, Jesus knew the disciples would freak out. They couldn’t feed 5,000 people. In fact, they started talking about how it would take more than half a year’s wages to buy just a bite for that many people. Jesus was teaching the disciples, and He was teaching us— the Kingdom of God has all the answers you need . How can you release the Kingdom of God into your life? Here are the five steps Jesus took. 1. Look at what you have. Jesus asked the disciples what they had to feed the people. What do you have in your life that you can give God to work with? Jesus multiplied bread into bread and fish into fish. What do you need multiplied in your life? Find some of it. That’s your seed. Also, remember that money can be named. You don’t sow money to believe for more paper or digital money. Money represents your life and can be named to be the thing you need multiplied. 2. Make sure you’re in faith. “To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see” (Hebrews 11:1, GNT). You have to know how to judge whether or not you’re in faith. How? Do you have the right picture? When you close your eyes, what do you see? Do you see yourself with the thing you’re believing for? Can you defend your position? Why do you believe it? Prove it! Because you can be sure that between the “Amen” and the “There it is!” the enemy is going to contend for it, so you better be able to defend it. Do you have joy, expectancy, and peace? Are you in agreement with your spouse? 3. Confess over what you have, and release it in faith. Be specific. Say exactly what you’re believing for and release the seed to God. 4. Get the plan from God. Be ready for new direction, new ideas, and new concepts by revelation from the Holy Spirit. Carry a notepad and a pen. Write everything down. 5. Act quickly! When God gives you the plan, MOVE! It’s wise to have counselors and get wisdom, but you need to act swiftly on any direction you receive from the Holy Spirit.

Want Growth and Success? Here Are 10 Steps to Help Take You There

By Gary Keesee • 13 Mar, 2024
Reading Time 2 mins 34 secs – How can you make sure you’re equipped for the growth coming your way this year? Here are my 10 steps to posture yourself for opportunity and success. 1. Ask yourself how you’re handling your current responsibilities. Don’t run from your responsibilities. No matter where you are or what you’re doing, you should be a success. People will still see the evidence of God even if you think you’re in the wrong spot. 2. Detox your life of the things that keep you from having time to think. We live in a fast-paced world. There are plenty of things that can keep you distracted. But it’s in the moments that you stop to think that you’ll find ways to solve problems, and that’s where the opportunities are. So figure out what is consuming your time. Start saying no to some things. Find time to think. 3. Don’t hang around people who are always losing. I know people hit rough spots, but if the people in your life are chronically losing, it’s time to expand your circle. Hang around people who are better than you are, who don’t see things as impossible, and who have vision. It may be uncomfortable for you, but their influence will cause you to think differently. 4. Write down EVERY idea that you have, no matter how strange it seems. Most people filter opportunities and ideas through what they perceive their ability to be. This means most people discard ideas by the dozens because they don’t think they can do them. But God isn’t limited to what you know how to do. The ideas He gives you might seem so weird to you that you can’t process them fully. Write them down so you have time to think about them. 5. Research. Research. Repeat. You don’t need to know how to do something; you need to know how to learn how to do it. Research until you find what you’re looking for. 6. Count the cost before you jump. A lot of Christians hear God and jump out too soon, resulting in catastrophe. There are seasons for everything. God will prepare you for where He wants you to go. Be patient. 7. Always be in agreement with your spouse. Never, ever march out into battle without your spouse being in total agreement and your faith aligned. 8. Ask God for direction. Ask Him to help you, to show you where to go, and what to do. And always remember that prophecy from other people shouldn’t lead you; it should only confirm what God has already said to you. 9. Commit to never quit. Quitting is not an option. Once you’ve moved, don’t move again until God speaks to you. Stay with it. Walk it out. Don’t quit. So many people have so much potential, but they get uncomfortable and they quit. If you want to win, you should always be stretching. 10. Get ready to embrace bigger things. Your ability to see the big picture will keep growing as you change and grow on the inside. You’ll pick up on even more opportunities. For more principles, check out this FREE video on success.

The Consequences of Strife: Why You Should Never Allow It in Your Life

By Drenda Keesee • 14 Feb, 2024
Reading Time 2 mins 59 secs – A stuffed toy laid in the road at the scene of the accident. As we passed, the Lord spoke to me, “ Okay, this is your last warning. Are you going to continue this? You know you are opening the door to the enemy.” Gary and I had had a disagreement just before we had left the house for our family road trip. And there we were six hours in and we’d barely said a word to one another. Six hours. You think driving from Ohio to Tennessee is a long stretch of highway? Try doing it while giving someone the silent treatment. One word: torture. Then we passed the accident. Gary and I both felt the same conviction when we passed it, especially because it clearly involved children. But... pride. We knew what we were doing wasn’t good. (What kind of example is it to your children to ignore each other?) But neither of us wanted to lay down our pride. I kept hearing the voice of the Lord, and I’d think, No, I’m not going to fix this thing, because then I’ll have to talk to him. It was almost a competition to see who could hold our grudge for the longest. But strife is dangerous stuff. What is strife? Drama, conflict, friction, disagreement, bickering, arguing, bad blood, disputes… whichever words you use to describe it, it’s dangerous. Whether it’s between you and your spouse, you and your child, you and a friend, you and a family member, or you and a coworker, you don’t want to let strife remain in your life. The Bible says that where there is strife, there is confusion and there is every evil work (James 3:16). Our small argument between Gary and I had gone unchecked and had escalated, and neither one of us were listening to the voice of the Lord. And there were consequences for our strife and outright disobedience. About an hour after we passed the accident, a car pulled out in front of our vehicle, and we were in what could have been a very serious car accident. I started yelling the name of Jesus, and God supernaturally protected our entire family. Initially, it looked as though there were going to be serious issues. They told us our son’s spleen might rupture. I was pregnant, and the doctors worried that I might lose the baby. Through all of these things, we stood on the Word of God, and we all came out unharmed, including the young preacher’s son who had pulled out in front of us (he was in disobedience at that moment too). Even in the midst of this difficult situation, through our prayers, standing on God’s Word, and our children’s words to the medical personnel, we had opportunities to minister and impact the little county hospital we had to visit. The enemy tried to take us out, but he lost. We were responsible for opening the door to the enemy. But the name of Jesus is more powerful than our mistakes and circumstances, and that is what kept us protected. You MUST stay on guard and not allow strife in your life, with anyone. How? Here are just three quick tips: Bite your tongue. You don’t have to say everything you think. Don’t lash out or give the silent treatment. Work on communicating with others in a healthy way. Repent quickly and forgive quickly. Take responsibility; admit when you’re wrong. Say you’re sorry and ask for forgiveness. Don’t hold onto hurts. Forgive as you’ve been forgiven by Jesus.
