The Bible talks more about money than heaven and hell combined! Wow! You can be sure that what we do with our money is important to God! But why is money so important to God? The answer is because it is intricately tied to our hearts. The average person will spend more time obtaining money (their job) than any other single activity in their life. This is why money is so connected to their heart. Therefore, Jesus said, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Mat 6:21  The word  “treasure” in the original language is “thēsauros.”  This  Greek word speaks of the place where a person has stored up all their wealth.

It is nearly impossible to read the Bible with an open mind and not see that God wants to bless his children with financial wealth. Still, it is also abundantly clear that God does not want wealth to have us! Somebody once said, “If God can get it through you, he will get it to you.” A life of real purpose and significance is a life of blessing others! Mike Murdock says, “What you make happen for others; God will make happen for you.” It is so important to live a “seed minded life.” Living to get will cause a person to live in depression and oppression. Living to give will produce a life of joy, purpose, and fulfillment!

In light of this, how much money do you want to make in the next three months, six months, nine months, etc.? When will you be debt-free? Remember, God wants you to be blessed in every way!

2 Corinthians 9:8-11 And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. As it is written: “He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor; his righteousness endures forever.” Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us, your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God. 

Do you believe that, because of the blood of Jesus, you are perfect in the eyes of God and therefore worthy to be blessed? If the answer is yes, then start planning and strategizing! God, your senior partner, wants to come alongside you and release heaven’s wisdom for wealth to you! Again, money was never meant to be your fulfillment, but instead, your opportunity to be a blessing to the kingdom of God and others.

If you are ready to increase, then it’s time to get busy making clear and precise goals! Make sure that you put your goals in front of you every single morning and every single night! Reviewing your goals once in a while will not work! The things you will be successful that will be things you meditate on every day. The secret to your future success will be found in your daily routine!

Your best is life is ahead of you, not in your rearview mirror! I am praying for you today! I am trusting God to give you his grace to firmly take hold of the exciting path ahead of you because it is time for you to be…
