Ricardo Equips Artistic Leaders: Recent Episodes
Ricardo Butler / ReAsOn DiSciPLe
I exist to gather together creative artists that have been either rejected or have moved away from “the existing music system” to equip them to be artistic leaders in the Five Fold for the purpose of bringing the Ark (Praise, Principles, Pattern, People, Power, Provision, and Presence) of God back to the restored Davidical Tabernacle (the Body of Christ) to impact the digital Music, Marketplace, Ministry, and Media Cultures imparting faith, hope, and LOVE using our artistic abilities in the process.
My first Q&A session/survey. Let's hear what people had to asking concerning the music ministry, industry, and culture!

In this podcast, I talk about the history of ALL music, no matter the genre. And I lay a foundation of what the purpose of music is, why it was created, and what God's order or plan is for music (no matter the genre or style) and His musical artists today!
Love you and Christ bless!

And today we want to talk about the downfalls of talents when we put them over anointing. We will also talk about how to use that anointing to make your talents and natural abilities, supernatural abilities.
Love you and Christ bless!

Today we talk about how to use your creativity as part of your anointing and power to do miracles in your music ministry. We also talk about how to release these powers by:
- Believing you have them
- Speaking to build up others
- And taking actions of faith to release that anointing in your music ministry or music business.
Every believer has this authority and right as a child of God.
Love you and Christ bless!

In this podcast I talk about the Five Fold Hip-Hop Ministry and the purpose of it in the music ministry, industry, and culture!
Let's SUM them all up!
"And David [the Apostle] spake to the chief of the Levites to APPOINTED [Heb: 'confirm, establish, appoint, ORDAIN'] their brethren to be the singers with instruments of music, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the voice with joy. So the Levites APPOINTED Heman [the pastor] ... Asaph [the Evangelist] ... Ethan [Jeduthun the Prophet] ... So the singers, Heman [the pastor], Asaph [the Evangelist], and Ethan [Jeduthun the Prophet], were APPOINTED to sound with cymbals of brass; and Chenaniah [the Teacher], chief of the Levites, was for song: he [Chenaniah the Teacher] INSTRUCTED about the song, BECAUSE HE WAS SKILLFUL." (1 Chron 15:16-17, 19, 22).
There it is! The Five Fold Ministry Hidden in the music ministry!
Love you and Christ bless!

This podcast talks about how there is POWER in agreement ON THE WORD!
Remember to free people from the bonds of Satan ...
- You need to be SPEAKING the Word of God.
- You need to be SPEAKING the Word of God CLEARLY SO THAT ALL MAY HEAR AND UNDERSTAND.
- You need to be SPEAKING the Word of God in agreement with God's TRUE ministers.
- And finally, though I didn't mention this, you need to be speaking by the ANOINTING OF GOD! You natural talent to rap holds not weight. Your talent is just a gift that makes room for you and brings you before people (Proverbs 18:16). But it's the ANOINTING that breaks chains.
"And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed BECAUSE OF THE ANOINTING [that comes from the SPIRIT, not your talent to rap]." (Isaiah 10:27).
And in these end times God is raising up Five Fold Ministers/Leaders who will restore by His Spirit the musical order and the purpose for hip-hop. We are going to talk more about that in detail in the days ahead.
Love you and Christ bless!

This podcast is taken from my blog post "The Foundation of Music" and then expounded on.
In short, here is what you need to set the foundation for your music (ministry or business):
- You need a Wise Plan that is BIBLICAL--founded in the WORD or on the ROCK--Jesus Christ
- You need a Wise Master Builder--an Apostle who understands the Plan and can help you
- You need the LIGHT--the Spirit of God upon you so that people may SEE God in your and come out of Satan's kingdom of Darkness to the Father and Christ
- You need to by FAITH put ACTION to this plan, whether if God says so, Christ says so, the Spirit of God says so, the Word of God says so, and the human agent--the Hip-Hop Apostles says so. That's FIVE witnesses that need to all agree together to confirm and establish your music ministry or music business.
Love you and Christ bless!

Some of the three greatest cries that I have heard all year for 2012 and what the people of God want more of in 2013 are:
- A closer walk and relationship with the Father and the Son,
- Financial Breakthroughs.
- And greater Unity in the Body of Christ.
Well in this blog post we are going to talk about 9 ways to building greater unity on social media and in face-to-face relationships throughout and across the body of Christ. We are going to use an example of the Life of King David (as usual) and the relationship he had with Jonathan.
Love you and Christ bless!

In this podcast we talk about Romans 14, which I believe is God's solution for the conflict about using Secular beats vs. Christian produced beats.

BUSINESS PLAN FOR 2013
I heard it somewhere that in Japan they create from 100 to 250 year business plans!
I’ve been working on my business plans and goals ALL DAY for just the year of 2013.
I finally got what I wanted down and still I am not finished. All I got is a handwritten (organized) mess.
I’ve got my four training courses; one for each quarter: 1. Business Start-Up Course, 2. Five Fold Leadership Course, 3. Creative Writing/Teaching Course, and 4. Music Ministry/Business Course.
Level 1 courses are Free, Level 2 courses are $60, and Level 3 courses are $100. There are 28 Sessions per course that will be held in each quarter for 3 months; given on Tuesdays and Fridays of each month.
I have scheduled 240 Blog posts (Monday thru Friday). 20 Per month. 4 For whatever the theme is for the month (Ex: Worship, Fellowship, Discipleship, etc). 4 to add extra content to whatever the course is for the month. 4 to add extra content in promotion of book release of the month. And 4 for marketing and promotional use.
I have scheduled 4 digital media messages in the form of Videos or Podcast (or both). One per four weeks. The subjects determined by either the course, theme, or book of the month.
I have scheduled the release on Amazon Kindle and Lulu.com 12 eBooks. 1 Per month. The rough-draft titles so far are …
Jan: Five Fold Davidical Hip-Hop Leader
Feb: 7 Beneficial Ways to Stay on God’s Good Side
Mar: Restoring Father’s to the Head of the Household
Apr: From the Bus Stop to the Altar
May: Five Fold Fatherhood
Jun: 27 Ways to Unify the Church
Jul: Done Unto His Image
Aug: Function in all 4 Temperaments 4 a Well Balanced Life
Sept: True Religion is Real Ministry
Oct: 12 Simple But Powerful Ways to Beat a Demon
Nov: The Jurisdiction of Joseph
Dec: The Top 15 Types of People to Best Reach with the Gospel
And to top it off, I am opening up my “Ricardo Equips Mentorship Program,” where I will take only 10 Students. 7 students for training and equipping in the industries of music ministry/business, creative writing/teaching/speaking, and Ministry (Five Fold) Leadership.
And the other 3 students for Entrepreneurship/Business mentorship, which includes training and equipping in the industries of music ministry/business, creative writing/teaching/speaking, and Ministry (Five Fold) Leadership.
For pricing for the 7 students and pricing for the 3 students contact me for more info at Ricardo@ricardoequips.com.

I have released a new hip-hop ministry and business eBook called Record Label, Music Ministry, or Both? It is designed for Holy-Hip Hop Artists who wrestle with making a decision to function as a music ministry (free services) or a music business (paid services). I teach these music ministers how to actually combine both by deciding from the beginning to either to function as a ministry first with a business element second or to function as a business first with a ministry element second. I explain that combining both will bring even greater glory to God, fulfillment to the artist as part of their calling, blessing to their family, financial support to the Body of Christ and impact on the hip-hop ministry, industry, and culture.
