LESSON OUTLINE
- SOME FUNDAMENTAL TRUTHS ABOUT WEALTH.
- PRINCIPLES OF WEALTH CREATION.
1. SOME FUNDAMENTAL TRUTHS ABOUT WEALTH.
A. Christians should note that God wants us to prosper (Psalm 35:27; 3John 2) because;
i. He desires for us to have an abundant life (John 10:10b).
ii. To provide financial resources for kingdom advancement (Luke 8:3).
iii. To be able to humanity (Proverbs 11:11a).
B. Christians are not called to just survive nor are they to be unduly extravagant (3 John 2; Philippians 4:5). As Christians, we should aspire to get wealth and bear in mind that all blessings come from God through men to men (Luke 6:38)- this is why we must keep healthy relationships. Being wealthy in God’s kingdom is a trust from God, we are only custodians (Deuteronomy 8:17-18).
C. It is pertinent to know that prosperity goes beyond financial blessings (Ephesians 1:3; 3John 2). Therefore, we must strive to achieve all levels of prosperity which includes; Spiritual, mental, bodily, financial, and relational prosperity (positive relationship with family, friends, and destiny helpers).
CLASS ACTIVITY 1
What is the difference and similarity between wealth and prosperity?
2. PRINCIPLES OF WEALTH CREATION
A. The principles of wealth creation can be broadly categorized under two divisions: Spiritual principles and Economic principles. To get wealth in the kingdom way, some of the necessary principles include:
i. The principle of absolute surrender (Job 22:21-26; Psalm 112:1-3).
ii. The principle of tithing and first fruit (Leviticus 27:30; Malachi 3:8-12; Proverbs 3:9-10).
iii. The principle of giving (Luke 6:38; 2Corinthians 9:6-7).
iv. The principle of divine wisdom, direction, and strategies (James 1:5; Genesis 26:1-2, 12-13; 30:37-43).
B. In addition to the above, economic principles for wealth creation may include:
i. Principle of mental transformation (Proverbs 23:7a): the reality captured in your heart is what comes to manifestation. Imagine great things because your mind is an extraordinary fertile garden (Proverbs 4:23; Philippians 4:8).
ii. The principles of value: Your value is a measure of your skills, gifts, or abilities- acquired or inherent (Proverbs 18:16). Be too valuable to be ignored.
iii. The principle of productivity: It involves refining and developing your value and turning it into a product or service. Creativity, innovation, competence, and excellence are magnets attracting people, resources, and opportunities to your life (Proverbs 22:29).
iv. The principle of increase/multiplication (Matthew 25:14-30/: Know how to ‘grow’ money through savings and investments. However, you should be cautious and invest only in things you understand.
v. The principle of networking: Connect with people of like minds and enablers (Proverbs 13:20). Your network determines your net worth.
