2 Corinthians 8:9 KJV — For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.
It is the will of God that all Christians might be rich; unfortunately, not all Christians will be rich, simply because many of us are unwilling nor ready to engage with other inputs and factors that make one rich, other than grace.
In creating wealth and making money for advancing the kingdom of God, remember it will take;
Transacting value with people who appreciate it
Many gifted believers are poor because they sell nothing, produce nothing, create nothing or provide no service. It is however, not enough to sell things to people who do not appreciate the value of your service or products. They will buy your product, service, creation or content too cheaply, and in the long run, they will despise you.
You must sell your product, service, creation and content at a profit. You must seek to make profit. That is how you create wealth.
Strategic relationships
When God wanted to bless Lot, he aligned him with Abraham.
Joseph entered the Pharoah’s palace because he ministered to someone who served in the palace.
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego rose to prominence because they connected strategically with Daniel.
Your strategic alignment and relationship is important to guarantee your wealth creations and prosperity.
Blessings and favour
Proverbs 10:22 KJV — The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, And he addeth no sorrow with it.
Keeping books and practicing good stewardship
Luke 16:1-2 KJV — And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods. [2] And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
In this story, the Lord asserts that the steward kept books, so he knew how much each debtor owed.
No Christian is supposed to be poor, but many are, and many will be, unless we learn to engage with these Godly keys as I have share with you today.
Stay blessed
