How to Build Your Business From Heaven A conversation with spiritual business coach Bralynn Newby on the Kingdom Business Revolution podcast Introduction What does it really mean to operate from heaven rather than for God in your business? In a recent episode of the Kingdom Business Revolution podcast, host Kristen sat down with Bralynn Newby, spiritual business coach and creator of Kings on Fire, to explore this transformative shift in how Christian entrepreneurs can build their businesses. Bralynn doesn't just talk about heaven—she helps entrepreneurs operate from it, activating their spiritual senses to hear from God clearly and partner with heaven to build businesses that shift culture. From Church Age to Kingdom Age One of the most profound distinctions Bralynn shares is the difference between operating in the "church age" versus the "kingdom age." Church Age Thinking: Praying up to heaven, asking "Oh Lord, bless my business." Kingdom Age Reality: Actually operating in the kingdom, understanding that "the kingdom of the Lord is within you" (as Jesus declared), and functioning from your seat in heavenly places. This shift isn't just theological—it's practical. As Bralynn explains, "When He's sitting on His throne, I need to be sitting on my throne. When He's commanding angel armies... I need to be commanding the armies that I have assigned to me." Activating Your Five Spiritual Senses Many believers don't realize they have spiritual senses that need to be activated. Bralynn breaks down the biblical foundation for each: 1. Hearing (Spiritual Ears) John 10 speaks about hearing and knowing your shepherd's voice. This isn't just about occasional divine whispers—it's about consistent communication with your heavenly CEO. 2. Seeing (Spiritual Eyes) John 5:19 reveals that Jesus only did what He saw the Father doing. If Jesus needed to see into the spiritual realm to know what to do, so do we. 3. Tasting (Spiritual Taste) Psalm 34:8 invites us to "taste and see that the Lord is good." This spiritual sense helps us discern and experience God's goodness in tangible ways. 4. Touching (Spiritual Touch) Matthew 10:7 describes heaven's Kingdom as "accessible, close enough to touch." We can reach into spiritual realities and bring them into the natural realm. 5. Knowing (Spiritual Perception) When Peter declared Jesus was the Son of God, Jesus said, "You didn't get that from man. You got that from the Lord." This divine knowing—an inner witness—is a critical spiritual sense. Your Imagination: The Interface With Heaven One of Bralynn s most fascinating revelations concerns the role of imagination in spiritual communication. When Paul writes in Ephesians about "the eyes of your heart being illuminated," he's referring to something profound. The word for imagination didn't exist in Greek at the time Paul was writing. The Hebrew concept of "hearts and minds" (yeser) carries the connotation of imagination. As Bralynn explains, "The screen of our imagination is something that God gave us to interface with Him and to really see what He's doing in heaven so that we know what to do on Earth." This isn't about making things up—it's about using the interface God designed for spiritual communication. Understanding Your Destiny Scroll Perhaps the most intriguing concept Bralynn introduces is the idea of destiny scrolls—what the Bible also refers to as "books" written about each person's life. What Is a Destiny Scroll? Psalm 139:16 declares: "I knew all of the days of your life were written in the scroll before you were born." Bralynn describes it in simple terms: "It's what's been written about your life... Heaven is all about recording and writing everything down." Some people see their scroll as one book with different chapters (marriage, business, community). Others, like Bralynn, see multiple scrolls—like a library full of possibilities. How to Access Your Scroll Even if you can't "see" anything spiritually yet, Bralynn encourages op
