PRINCIPLES TO WEALTH CREATION
Wealth, has principles. So also, poverty has principles.
Do the thing, get the power.

Life is a field of harvest where everything that you get for free, are resources that should be invested.
There are various types of investments depending on your judgement. There are right investments and obviously wrong ones. This is based on the daily decisions we make about life.
From what time you sleep, to how you leave your bed when you're late.
Daily simple, insignificant actions that culminate the success or failures we experience.
Life they say, isn't a bed of roses. I say, life is whatever you call it.
Every situation offers you an opportunity, depends on how well you see the opportunity, your perspective towards it, and ultimately your timing.
From ancient times, wisdom has been hidden in the text of authors, and was supposed to be with the advanced in age because they have the wisdom of years.
But these days, the internet has made that readily available to everyone. You can read and get knowledge. But it remains trapped till you know how and when to use it right.
From the bible, wisdom is gotten from two sources, the world and from above.
Jesus himself is wisdom. Today, I would like to share with you, wisdom revealed in the person of Jesus.
This logos has been displayed before our eyes for over 2000 years, some know of it already, but quite a number still don't know.
Money is good. Very good. And you have the right to have a whole lot of it. You deserve it.

But life will never give you what you deserve unless you dust your butt, stop living at the mercies of others and get your game on.
And what's more, be consistent with it.
Today, look up Mattew 13:4-11
4. And as he sowed, some seed fell beside the road [between the fields], and the birds came and ate it. 5 Other seed fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil; and at once they sprang up because they had no depth of soil. 6 But when the sun rose, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, and thorns came up and choked them out. 8 Other seed fell on good soil and yielded grain, some a hundred times as much [as was sown], some sixty [times as much], and some thirty. 9 He who has ears [to hear], let him hear and heed My words.”
This is different from evangelism. The word is renewed daily. So here it is.
Life is a loaded with various free resources. Your life, is a seed.

This passage, it talks about a sower, which I would call the Creator, God. He went out with seeds.
Do you believe you're co-heir with Christ? That means, you're a seed of God. You carry his name. You carry his blue print.
And note... the tree is always in the seed.
Your seed is inactive, but loaded with potentials.
So this is it, the seeds, fell from the bag, all on their own accord.
The first fell on roadside, and what happened, birds cleared them off.
They were in a place that didnt support growth.
They didn't even grow before the birds feasted on them.
Life will crush you so hard if you fail to GROW.
The next ones, chose their place among the rocks. They found little soil, they sprang up, but the Sun scorched them to death because they had no DEPTH.
These guys are often the lucky ones. They are shallow success stories.
In life, nothing happens by luck. That you mistakenly fired a shot as a footballer and it went in for the goal, and you were the MVP for the season, doesn't mean you'll remain like that.
These guys lacked depth. They had skills and were able to gain recognition so fast. But their consistency game and slef development game was not it.
They got only surface value, no depth. And when life comes challenging and questioning their success, it all dries out.
This group houses lots of talented folks. They have talent, rely So much on their talents, but never develop it.
Do you know the irony of stats is that the number of failures are more among talented people than people who stuck to learning the talent.
Skilled people are driven by passion, that's why they are stuck to hard work.
The other talented guys most times are driven by the fame. only a few are driven by passion or just simply because they are goal oriented.
So also, are people who get wealth through quick and crooked means. They can't sustain it. They loose it as easily as they got it.
These next guys, found themselves among thorns. Obviously wrong association.
They were friends with the thorns, they grew up together.
But a thorn will always be a thorn and a seed always a seed.
They might not be bad people, but they are wrong for you. Do you get I now?
Some people you are with right now, you've been friends right from childhood. But not all of them will take you where you are going.
Everyone in your life has something to contribute. So don't sit spending 5minutes with those whom you should be spending 5hours, and don't spend 5hours with those you owe less than 5minutes. Judge your relationships.
Your Jacob needs a Rebecca that will make your goat meat taste like Bush meat,for you Isaac to bless you.
Find the people and relationships that are right to your life.
And the final guys, guess what, they fell in the good fertile soil. That's all we used to know. But read further, you will find out they produced, some 100 folds, some 60 and some 30.
Other seeds on other soils gave just one result.
These guys in the right place, right resources, same potential of seeds, and same environment for growth.
Why then will A produce 100 folds, and B 60 and C 30? Given same resources?
It's simple. It's DILIGENCE.
seest thou a man, deligent in his ways, he won't stand before mere men, but before kings.
Each and everyone of us is a seed.
For a seed to grow, if will first be buried in a hole, where it dies, then it draws nourishment from below, water from above, and showers of sunlight.
Are you deligent in passing through your dark and death phases?
All the seeds in the three instances, the rock, thorns and good soil all went through the process of painful growth. Aside wrong locations for the two, they both grew.
Growth is painful, its like working out at the gym, its sweaty and painful. But the result is awesome body.
How deligent are you?
You want to start being deligent when your $500 worth company turns $60,000? It's a lie, you will never grow that big if you cant manage that little.
Diligence requires wisdom. Wisdom is knowing what to do, when to do it in the manner that pleases God.
You become a success before you ever become a success.
Build yourself on the little things, grow. Be deligent.
God bless you. Thanks for reading
Thanks for sharing on such an amazing topic
But I still also think that giving is also a very important principle to wealth creation
Thanks for sharing

Very true. Give and it shall be given unto you. God loves cheerful givers.
Giving is the heart of wealth creation. It centers on diligence too.

Am going to follow this principle of yours, it's simple and godly.
Thanks for sharing. I do agree with you.
In creating wealth, the first thing is having a relationship with God. Scriptures says HE gives the power to wealth.
Prv 22:29,tells us that we must be diligent to stand in the midst of wealth ie standing before people who are in wealth (kings)
He that loves sleep shall never be rich. The preacher in proverbs admonished us to consider the ways of the ant and be wise.
God's wealth makes rich without adding sorrow. Don't envy the evil man that has great substance.
That's true. I agree. But these days, people base relationship with God alone as pass for wealth creation. Isaac worked, abraham worked. They didn't only recieve promises, they worked.
Every blessing will place a responsibility on you.
Wealth has principles. This principles is what those people we call unbelievers understand. I wonder why we fail to read our bibles as christians. Some of what we call faith is laziness
Congratulations! You have received an upvote from @abuja-steem. Don't forget to always use #abuja-steem as tag on your posts
God’s purpose for our prosperity is for His purposes being completed in our lives. We gain so we have to give. Giving and supporting the Gospel is our main purpose. He gives power to gain wealth to establish His Covenant upon the face of the earth.”
There's nothing of value here. Once you get rich get back to us. Once you understand the Bible get back to us.
Come on, do you feel good about what you just said? If you didn't see anything valuable there, no need to trash the post.
I saw wisdom in the post.
