Harnessing His Wealth: The True Purpose of His Wealth

Hi everyone,

This week I’ve been writing on the topic Harnessing His Wealth, it is a finance series, in understanding God’s plan for your life as regards wealth. We understand that wealth is not a do or die affair, it is something God has given to everyone individually. We now understand that the greatest form of wealth is the fullness of Christ Jesus whom God gave us, and anyone who ever believes in Him and become born again into the kingdom of Jesus becomes wealthy automatically.

Also, I wrote that as we are in Christ, we are to be led by the Holy Spirit who guides us when we identify our individual path when meditating on the Word who actually is Jesus and is our map. The Holy Spirit is the One who leads us as we walk through our path. We also found out that if we walk through our path and can’t harness His wealth, it is because we are not adding value to that which we have identified as the tool used in harnessing His wealth, and we cannot add value without the Holy Spirit showing us what to add and how to add value.

I wrote that we need to be patient and trust the map (the word/Jesus) and the Holy Spirit who leads us. Today, I will write on the purpose of harnessing His wealth, why God wants us to harness His wealth here on earth.

The first point I would like to start with is to explain why we automatically become wealthy under the new creation. The reason anyone born of Jesus is wealthy is because Jesus is wealthy, it is that simple. The life we left had a lot of “drama” in it [if you know what I mean], the reason why that was so is that we inherited all that Adam became after leaving the Garden of Eden. Adam’s life rubbed off on us because we were his offspring, and the hoarding mindset was how he lived as he toiled to put food on the table which was different from the wonderful life he left in the Garden of Eden. But when you become born of Jesus, the life of Jesus becomes your life as you have His very Spirit, in other words, all that He is, is all we become, (ref.: 1 John 4:17). And since we have His very life in our Spirit, we can only harness this great life by our soul being renewed to know that Jesus is now our new life, and this is done by meditating on the word of God who tells us who we are, and the Holy Spirit interprets to us.

Now, what exactly is the reason why we need to harness His wealth? The reason why we need to harness His wealth is for us to understand that we are not here on earth as Sons and Daughters of God to seek for what has been given to us already—His wealth. The essence is for us to be focused on why we are here, the tool we find when we take our individual path.

The truth is that if we act like the people of the world who are eager to be rich, we will never use the tool to fulfill our purpose here on earth, because our time is occupied with doing everything to put food on the table, to be classy, to be rich no matter the level you want to put it.

Jesus made us understand this Matthew 6:33 which says, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” He said earlier in verses 31 and 32 which says, “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.” The Gentiles are the people of the world. God made provision for everything you will ever need which is wrapped up in Christ Jesus, and it is just for you to focus on the purpose of your calling, which was why Jesus said we should focus on what we are born to do (that is after being born again). And as we follow the leading of the Holy Spirit, we would find out that all we ever need have been provided even before we got there.

And don’t think those things are shabby, they can’t be shabby because God isn’t shabby. He provides according to His standard which can’t be measured by human understanding.

If you are crying that nothing is working, it is because you are not doing what He called you to do. His wealth is being harnessed as we take the path He showed us, and we must be led by the Holy Spirit.

God loves us so much that He has provided for us His own wealth for us to enjoy, so why suffer in the world and be carried away by the luxury that fades, when you can harness the wealth that can never fade.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

 

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
