I’m not wealthy yet but one day I know I will be.
Not because I want to be to do anything I want at anytime, I’m a slave under Christ, as Paul said. Though, that’d be cool to enjoy the fruits of my labor. But I want to do more, a lot more, and impact a lot more people than I’d ever think I could. I don’t know fully how this will happen, but I have seeds of several ideas for what I’m going to do- maybe sometime soon I’ll share it.
Mostly, I’d like to be wealthy to show other people how to get wealthy too. Like a Christ-focused Tony Robbins or Jim Rohn. I want to write books to enlighten people to Spiritual Truths and most of all, Jesus, through the Holy Spirit.
ALSO, I realize now that the best way to help the world is to add enough value to it to the point where value has to come back to me.
So then I may be a mover and shaker for Christ’s sake and glory. Starting corporations, small businesses, non-profits, ministries, churches, creating apostolic ministries, and having the message of faith backed by power shown in the accumulation of currency and a lifestyle surrendered to God.
God, Lord Jesus, use me for your glory. Let me be your test dummy – and I know you can make me a prosperous wise man, like the world has never seen before. This is what I want, but may every semblance of pride in me completely die. I want to be sold out for His sake, not for His sake FOR MY SAKE, if you get what I mean. God sees the heart. I can’t lie to Him. He knows me too well…
Success, riches, even fame (though I don’t think I want fame, if it’s not for His special purpose) – all these things are possible. But, if it’s not done for Christ, I don’t want any part of it. At this point I’m currently at, I don’t know how I’ll even work up the motivation or the mindset to do anything that’s not in line with God – but if it is, if it’s His glory, His orders… backed by His Spirit, then c’mon! Let’s do it!!
Anyway, recently, I’ve been feeding my mind with a lot of Christ and Bible-centered techniques/mindsets on how to get rich, famous, create abundance, stay motivated, etc. I want to teach people these things but obviously I have a strong conviction to achieve these things first myself in order to educate others effectively about these things… with personal anecdotes and the works to back it.
Today I heard on a motivational audio by “Motiversity” – link is here. Wealthy people do three things.
Their mindset is fixed AS SUCH –
- They stop trading their time for money
- They make their money work FOR them
- They give as much value as they can to other people.
I want to share as much as I have that’s of value, tried and true, soul enriching, empowering, wealth-creating value, unto others. As such, I want the books which I’ll put out (in the very near future) to be completely soul transforming but also to lay seeds that will have discernable fruits in the future. Physical fruits for everyone to see. All for Christ’s glory. May it be so just as you have said, Lord.
John 10:10
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
I receive it God. Type “I receive” below if you receive God’s abundance!
Jeez… I hope I’m not becoming one of those prosperity preachers… haha just kidding! The Bible and God is supposed to make you abundant! What’s more prosperous than being with God? Amen.
