YOU WILL HAVE PLENTY MONEY…
Actually, having plenty money has never been a problem with God. He wants us to have plenty money, but His concern is if we’d be able to make money without adding sorrow to it. Recall Proverbs 10:22, that scripture clearly says, “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it”.
So the real question is, do you want to be rich with sorrow or without sorrow? If your desire is to be rich without sorrow being added to it, then the only way you can get that kind of riches is through the blessing of the Lord. As long as your riches is not sponsored by the blessings of God, then sorrow and emptiness is inevitable.
The difference between those who get rich by the blessing and those who get rich by struggling is that while those who get rich by blessing focus on attracting blessing from God, those who get rich by struggling do just anything their hand finds to do. While it is totally okay to do whatsoever your hands finds to do, you must know how and when to convert your proceeds to a blessing. The inability or refusal to do this conversion is what leads to the emptiness and sorrow that many rich people feel at the end of their pursuit for riches.
Please note that when I say “sorrow”, I don’t necessarily mean you have to lose something or a loved one, it could just mean you lost the opportunity to discover and explore your true self. Actually, there’s no greater tragedy than this; after you have toured round the world and made all the money, you still get that vacuum of dissatisfaction within you.
One of the best ways to attract blessings to your life is to use the gifts of God upon your life to impact the world and ultimately advance the kingdom. Unfortunately, there are many people out there who do not invest in developing their gifts because they’d rather use the money for something else. Shockingly, this same people would like to make money through their gifts, unknowing to them that if your desire for money is greater than your desire to develop your gift, then your gift will not bring you money. You must be willing to use your money to develop your gift.
Don’t concentrate on what to eat, focus on how to live. The state of your life is more important than the state of your stomach. The prosperity of your life is more important than the prosperity of your stomach. Do not keep changing direction, it is wasting your time. Stop moving into every trending business, stay within the space that your gift permits. Stop frustrating the grace of God upon your life.
Nobody is lazy or incompetent, we just have people who are competing where they don’t have a gift. You have to stop competing where you don’t have a gift. Most people know that I’m a teacher of the gospel, that’s my purpose, but my gift is in writing. I’ve tried several times to do teaching videos, but I find out that I get weary after a while. I had to stop using applications like Tiktok because I couldn’t keep up with making videos. Each time I try to make a video, it’s like something is zapping life out of meš. I had to restrict my operations to YouTube, Instagram and Facebook because those are the apps that allow me post my articles.
Writing inspiration is my strenght, not necessarily making videos or even audios. And because I’ve focused on it over the years, it has attracted so much blessings to me – which has in turn made me rich in all things. There’s no vacuum in my life, just joy unspeakable. Coincidentally, I still work for an organization that pays me monthly salary. So just incase you’re making excuses for not being able to develop your gift and serve the purposes of God, your job shouldn’t be an excuse.
Find your field, understand it and stay there until it begins to attract the blessings of God. The blessings of God in this case simply means possibilities. God can introduce you to profitable relationships, He can give you favour with men, He can give you wisdom and understanding, He can mould your character. The more you serve God’s purposes with your gifts, the more blessings are released upon you. It is these blessings that will make you rich and add no sorrow to it.
Today, if I want to relocate to another country, I’m pretty sure I won’t spend a dime. God has blessed me with favorable relationships, people who are waiting for one phone call from me. God has given me a name and a fame, such that there’s literally nowhere I go to that I don’t encounter someone that knows me, even in a market. I attended a conference last week and while I was waiting to meet some of the pastors after the service, people started walking up to me to greet me. The one that amazed me most was how one of them placed an envelope that contained a foreign currency in my hand. Ofcourse I get such gifts, but I didn’t think such a thing would happen in that kind of place. I went there to learn, but riches still located me there.
Now you should understand what that scripture means when it says “the blessing of the Lord makes rich”.
I hope this has brought enlightenment to someone.
Remain ever blessed, in Jesus precious name!
