“And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth. But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.”
Deuteronomy 8:17-18
God wants us to be financially viable and secure so that we could attend to all our financial needs with minimal effort, and be a blessing to others. You and I need real money to solve our financial problems and to add value to our lives. The Bible says money answers all things. The question then is: How does God empower us to be financially fruitful? The answer is simple! It is by embracing:
1. Diligence!
“He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.”
Proverbs 10:4
Diligence remains God’s method or strategy for financial empowerment!
Until we are prepared to be diligent, we are not ready for financial fruitfulness. Isaac became wealthy because he was a diligent farmer. Diligence is about consistency and hard work. Desire alone without hard work will never command financial fruitfulness! A mere wish
will get you nowhere financially but hard work and consistent effort will always procure financial fruitfulness. God sees your diligence and rewards you for it. Don’t be idle or lazy! God hates it!
2. Wisdom!
Divine wisdom is the true Source of financial fruitfulness. It takes divine wisdom to be wealthy! Wisdom is the harbinger of durable riches! The Bible says, “Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness. My fruit is better than gold, yea than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver. I lead in the way of righteousness, amid the paths of judgment: That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance, and I will fill their treasures.”
Proverbs 8:18-21
Embrace divine wisdom and you will be empowered by God to be financially fruitful.
3. Giving!
“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.”
Luke 6:38
Embracing and practising the act of giving is your surest way or path to financial fruitfulness. You secure wealth by scattering not by hoarding. The Bible says, “There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.”
Proverbs 11:24
Make up your mind to be a giver this year.
I decree and declare that you will be empowered by God to be financially fruitful in Jesus’ mighty name!
Yours sincerely,
