[Music] thank you for joining us for another powerp packed Message from Dr Miles Monroe provided by Monroe Global Incorporated and Monro global.com we transform followers into leaders and leaders into agents of change we hope that this message is a blessing to you as you advance your life and discover your purpose now let's go into the message okay right on top of your page the statement again if you haven't written it down the Kingdom Purpose for resources and money say it the Kingdom Purpose for resources and money and you want to take notes cuz you're going

to follow some things to get you out of debt and also to keep you out of debt and some principles that I have used in my own personal walk with the holy spirit that took me out of debt I am out of debt personally and I'm telling you it's because I learned what I'm going to teach you tonight you're going to learn some of my secrets and I got them all from the kingdom book The Bible I want to begin first of all by talking a little bit about the kingdom concept of wealth and as

you know we're dealing with the application of the kingdom of God to Earth and I want to remind you in this particular segment of a a reintroduction of the global picture that God has and a couple of statements you want to write down number one the original purpose and plan of God was to extend this heavenly Kingdom to Earth that's God's original plan Heaven is a wealthy place the the asphalt on the streets of Heaven is are made of gold so when you talk about wealth if you don't like wealth don't go to heaven now

if a kingdom is wealthy and it has a colony then the colony is to reflect the nature of that Kingdom because the purpose for colonization is to extend the Kingdom's influence to a foreign territory so I want you to get this picture remember if you're thinking is wrong your life is wrong if your thinking is right your life will begin to line up with your thinking and your life your life begins to become right I don't pursue wealth nor do I look for money why because in my country where I'm from wealth is the part

of our culture my country no one is pooring in my country nobody where I'm from no one is poor so poverty is a foreign experience for people from my country where I'm from I used to live in the Bahamas you know I thought I was from the Bahamas but I'm actually from heaven in case you don't know that and in my country there is no depression there is no poverty listen I believe that with my whole being and that's the way I think now and to get you to think that way we got to start

with this concept if the kingdom is colonizing a territory the territory will reflect the nature of that Kingdom the same way the Bahamas reflects the nature of Great Britain in the way we live and the what we eat what we drink and how we drive so if a kingdom is wealthy Like Heaven is then the colony of people on the planet that represent that kingdom are supposed to be reflective of that Kingdom and they are not wealthy in order for them to boast or to compete with each other or to brag about what they have

because what they have ain't theirs so Point number three is important write this down wealth in a kingdom is the personal property of the king I want you to start thinking that way otherwise you won't come out of debt wealth is what the personal proper of King now in a kingdom no one owns anything the king owns everything the land the animals the forest the waters and the people everything in a kingdom is personal property of the king this is important because if you don't get this point you will continue to run after money pursue

material things and compete with other people for resources but if you get a revelation I hope you get it sometime this year hopefully tonight that you you own nothing then if that ever hits you then no one can ever steal from you listen people can only steal from you if you think you own it I tell you this stuff is heavy now I got a whole lot of material to give you tonight but if if if you don't get the first slide I might as well just quit because it ain't going to work unless your

Concepts change Kingdom concepts are the most important thing in the world for you to capture that's why I wrote the first two books just on Concepts because if you don't get the concepts right you will be lost in the activity listen if you are in a kingdom you own nothing if you own nothing you can lose nothing nor can anyone steal so crime is only possible where ownership is present it's a profound statement now here's the problem I call it a culture Clash you were brought up in a culture just like I was that trains

you to think ownership the whole culture is built I mean capitalism is built uh the Western Society is built the whole culture is built on two ideas one Independence two personal ownership and both of those concepts are anti- Kingdom that's why people are stressed out I'm going to show you from scripture tonight why God keeps money from you and I'll show you right from the Bible why he does and he does it because you are a capitalist you are a Earthling and you are trapped in a system that encourages the belief that you own things

and that very belief is what's keeping things from you oh please Lord help me and somehow I'm praying for God to break that thing from your mind I'm going to take a while because you were brought up in there but we going to start tonight and you need to ask God for how about a miracle anybody want a miracle ask put your hand here say Lord Lord Lord destroy my ungodly thinking remove from my mind remove the cultural damage cultural Dage of the world of the world and give me and give me your culture your

culture of the Kingdom in Jesus name I receive it reive hallelujah praise God he he have to heal your mind and this point is important in a kingdom the king owns everything personally number four the kingdom gives the kingdom gives his wealth to his citizens to accomplish his purposes in the colony this is a very important statement the Kingdom and The King The King himself he owns everything and whatever he gives you is not for you it's for his purposes in The Colony this is important because the moment you think what you receive is yours

then you lock it up you stop it with you you hold on to it and that is anti Kingdom if God cannot get it through you he won't get it to you anything God gives you is to accomplish his purpose in the colony I remember the scripture that explodes in my mind at the moment Deuteronomy chapter 7 and chapter 8 are important chapters to read is when the Lord brought them out of Egypt he began to tell them how they they must think the attitudes and then he said to them he said he said I

am your God and it is I who will give you the power to get wealth now that word power then means ability or skill I will give you the ability the power the skill to get wealth and the sentence ends like this so that I might accomplish my Covenant that I made with Abraham in other words I'm going to make you wealthy to fulfill my Covenant in the earth so any time the king gives you resources remember your first question should be what's it for not who it's for what's it for cuz you want to

say it's you it's for me right away and that leads me to this important final statement in introduction and that is the kingdom citizen is responsible and accountable to the king for the use and the management of his resources please be sure that everyone in this room gets a copy of this CD or dvd when I'm finished cuz I'm going to give you a lot of information you need to to convert your thinking and to do that you keep listening to it at least seven times listen to this thing seven times to get your mind

changed the kingdom citizen is responsible and accountable to who the king for what for the use and the management of his resources he owns everything he gives it to you for his purposes and then he makes you accountable back to him as to how you use it and how you manage it basic fundamentals in the Kingdom now let's move to this particular story Matthew chapter 25 if you look at verse one of Matthew 25 you will find that Jesus Christ is still talking about his only message and he opens the passage this way he says

again the Kingdom of Heaven is like and then he gave these different stories in other words these stories are about the kingdom of God so you cannot read nor preach nor teach from these passages outside of the context of the kingdom of God these are Kingdom stories and he begins by saying the kingdom of heaven is like this and then he tells this beautiful story that everybody remembers let's read it for the first time he said again the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man going on a journey who called his servants and entrusted his

property to them hey boy think about the statement now there's a man going where on a journey and he does what entrust his property to who his Serv okay now let's see if we can connect that now remember now these are not supposed to be literal stories he's trying to explain the kingdom okay the kingdom begins in Genesis 1: 26 Dominion Dominion the word mlak or the name is Da in Hebrew da or mlak and they both mean Dominion rulership Authority Kingdom in Genesis 126 the the Lord created the heavens and the Earth everybody follow

me now heavens and the Earth so he finished the property the Earth was created before man was released so the property preceded the manager yes so Christ is going back to the story he said look I'm trying to tell you a thousand different ways here's another way there was a man who had property he made his property and he left in the hands of his servants now those servants are actually his sons who happen to be mankind over the Earth he's trying to connect he's telling people in that area in that culture who know about

servants and About Properties he's using that scenario that simile that example to explain Genesis 1: 126 he said look God created you he had a piece of property and he told you look after that for me have dominion over the Earth clar are you sure okay that's exactly what he's talking about he's talking about about rulership over his property Point number two he says to one he gave five talents of money now why does Jesus use money you're going to say in a minute why he uses money money is the most personal thing to everybody

money is so personal that we keep it in a purse that's why you call it a person it's it is so personal that only you know how much you don't have you faking it all the way it's so personal that that if anybody wants it it's a fight it's so personal and money is the most powerful thing on earth next to God that's why he uses money Jesus said this to his disciples his students he said there are only two masters on Earth God and he never mentions the devil you keep thinking that the devil

is powerful he said no there's something more powerful than the devil and you got some in your bag right now he made money more powerful than Satan because money is so person up and he says you can't serve both of them huh he says this man gave everybody say gave I want you to underline every word I I emphasize underline those words he what he gave talents of money talents is a certain amount of money the word talent that means a certain amount of money in in measure of money to another he gave two talents

to another he gave one Talent each according to his what ability everybody say ability ability according to what in other words he gave not according to how much he had he gave according to what they have the ability to manage the kingdom Has No Lack and no scarcity it has no limit in wealth so if there's scarcity in your life it has nothing to do with God read the statement again he says he gave them not how much he wanted to give them he gave them how much they had the ability to handle so God

doesn't determine what you get from his kingdom you do can change your thinking now change your thinking so what you got to do is don't even pray for certain things your ability should determine what you pray for that's frightening me you ask God for 10,000 bus God say you know something I gave you $100 last week you even didn't pay tithes so now your prayer is frustrating you you don't get the thousand and then you tell God he don't answer prayer he answered your prayer completely you ain't able to handle a thousand so he answered

your prayer he didn't give it to you the amount was determined by the person's the recipient's ability to manage it now watch this last part it says then he went on his journey that means and I I got a list to show you this in in a few minutes this the list you get the principles are powerful that's an important statement he left everybody say he left underline that please he went away went away that's important in other words God gives you stuff and then leaves you to handle it he give you a brain he

give you his Spirit he gave you intelligence he gave you wisdom he gave you his word he says now I ain't going to tell you what to do with that money I'mma watch see how you manage that yourself he goes away God told us have dominion and then God left when God came back a snake was in charge God says Adam where in the world are you I didn't leave you like this you I left you in charge you mismanaged the garden so what to do God drove him out whatever you mismanage God drives you

out of look at the next verse it gets worse smile Matthew 25:16 the man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work everybody say money to work underline it money to work everybody say money to work say it again he didn't go to work see you you missed the whole Revelation because in the kingdom of God you don't work for money money works for you in the Kingdom anytime God gives you resources he wants it to work for you what makes us die young and sick and depress and

grow old fast is the fact that we have reversed this Kingdom principle we purs you two jobs two and a half jobs we don't even go home if you work for money Guess Who's The Boss Christ has only two masters on the planet Hallelujah I'm listening sorry and the governor is very close to me or he's screaming listen Hallelujah you are supposed to work for purpose not money if you find your purpose money will find you if you're not in your purpose you hav't found your purpose you're still working for money money is your boss

Jesus tried to explain this one time with a simple example he said why do you worry in other words why are you pursuing what you will eat what you will drink trying to get stuff getting money to buy food clothes and stuff he said what are you doing then he says look at the birds now the birds is important he says look look at the bir he said they don't worry they don't toil they don't plant they don't re they they they he said under father takes care of them what is the only thing a

bird does be a bird be a bird get it you get it after I'm gone tonight he said look look at the bird he said be like the birds find what you do what do birds do birds are birds so they bird whatever birds do that's what birds do birds don't try to be horse you never see a bird trying to be a cow you never see a bird trying to lay eggs or nothing you know like I mean sorry like like have children like like cows and thing children calves calves you all know what

I'm talking about you know a bird will never try to be crocodile but the bird never tries the human is the only creature that tries to be something they are not purpose attracts the prosperity for its fulfillment I repeat purpose attracts the prosperity for its own fulfillment why because God will always Finance his own products his own assignments his own purpose that's why Jesus is saying here you don't work for money he put the money to work it says the one with the two talents gained two more the man who had received the one Talent

went off everybody say went off hey people people was going off going off do you know what I believe going on off implies they look busy but ain't nothing happening he went off as if he doing something guess what he did he went to bury the thing some people some people are taking all their wealth and burying it in some work that ain't profiting them they look busy so where you going I going off to work I day going be rough today where you going I go off to work people can go off and be

busy and never get their mortgage paid always Robin Peter to pay Junior because they don't understand the power of money he went off he dug a hole everybody dug a hole how many of you know what a hole is in finances no just lift your hand if if you know what the ho is come on all of youall everyone lift your hand stop lying a hole is where every time you put it in it gone every you put it in it gone is it like a you ever put in a Pockets with hole yeah some

of y'all you know your payday is already paid gone that's called a hole they go off every day and in the month a hole go off a hole go off a ho God's like saying that's a rough way for you to live you my kid what's wrong here is my children have not locked into Kingdom culture money does not exist did you know that I learned that years ago from a very wealthy man I was free from money that day he says money is an idea it's in your head it's an idea there's a book

called Think and Grow Rich do you know what your book says work and Grow Rich the book says Think and Grow Rich it's a multi-million dollar seller when I read that book I said this book is saying exactly what the Bible being saying that book stole all all the Bible principles and it's the it's selling Millions still it's a bestselling book and it doesn't say work and Grow Rich we keep if we work We Grow Rich he said no no you a supposed to work for riches you're supposed to work for purpose if your thinking

is correct wealth is attracted you know it's amazing that Solomon never asked God for money now now let's be honest if God showed up in your room tonight 215 and say hey anything you want now you know behem you tell God right away listen I got my dumb truck somewhere fill that with a couple thousand million dollars for me dump it right here in my yard you know that's that's where we go for money is a master and Solomon refused to ask for wealth cuz wealth is supposed to be a byproduct of Kingdom thinking Solomon

asks for mental things give me wisdom he says knowledge understanding that's it once I got them down pack in my mind then they will make money for me and Solomon became the wealthiest man in history he became wealthier than his father David I never asked for money and the first thing we asked for was money I asked my daughter the other day I said what you want for Christmas money I said I said you answer me too quickly I tell her tell you what I can do I'm going buy you some books I want you

to read That's how your daddy become what he is today it wasn't money that made me what I am because money is a lousy God money will last in your life until you pay for something it's gone so if you have sense you'll do what Solomon said proverbs 4 verse 7 one of my favorite verses he said in all if it costs you all you have get understanding Proverbs 4:7 if it costs you he said if you're going to spend money say buy understanding with it no we want to go buy a nice car or

hereo we want to buy clothing we want to go to Miami and God is saying no that's why you broke now tell your neighbor I'm coming out of the hole the say like you mean it man say it loud so it become a spiritual Force I'm coming out of the hole say it I'm coming out of the hole praise God can you see yourself coming out if you could give him a big hand you can see yourself coming up you're coming out of the [Applause] hole you know tithing and giving doesn't necessarily get you out

of the hold you have to add to your faith works and then it says add to your Works understanding you have to know how to think even when you give it that's why I spent so much time in this introduction my thinking changed years ago and that thinking was he owns everything and everything in the kingdom is his property and he gives it to me for his purposes so my thinking is different let me give you another verse verse 19 read aloud with me please everybody read go after a long time the master of those

servants return and settle accounts with them everybody say accounts accounts that means underline the word God says look I gave you the planet I told you what's in the planet water precious stone uh resin oil fruit fish bird in other words in Genesis he says I gave you guys all this wealth there is Earth around your house and you still buying tomatoes if anybody today want a fresh head of cabbage I'll give you one from my yard right now I'm serious okay so you want a fresh fresh hair of cabbage you let me know I'll

pick one from my yard and give it to you anybody here want broccoli broccoli cost seven $8 for a little stick if you ask me for one I could pick one right now from my yard and give it to you now you see you you think so wrong all you want is the broccoli and the the Cabbage you missed my point I am saving money because I turned my yard into productivity and he who has more you asking God for money to buy grocery God is this grocery behind your house you are abusing ignoring the

dirt I gave you now you notice before I close tonight I'm going you're going to see me use two words over and over again the two words are put together because we keep thinking of money as money no it's resources God's concern about resour everything is resources after a long time long time implies he gave out on the planet and God came back long time to see how he doing it's being said 7,000 years now and God still trying to figure what are yall doing to that planet the man who had received the five talents

bought the other five bought the other five so he had 10 right he said Master look you entrusted me everybody say entrusted underline it please entrusted God gives you money and resources as a trust do you consume it all on yourself you entrusted me that mean by the way the word entrust means this guy understood it was in his property even though it was given to him he refused to own it he says you entrust to entrust me is I left this with you and that's still mine if you are going to take the right

attitude in the culture of Heaven over resources and materialism and money you're going to have to be converted with my first statement on my slide he owns everything all the time can I hear an amen amen that man was a smart man okay if I left my car with you and I went away for 3 months is that your car that ain't never your car so it's called trust in trust to in trust means it's never yours now I come back and my cars are wrecked mashed up lights broken windows broken engine smoking nothing's working

do you know how I feel about you if you read the last verse of this story it says Jesus said this with he says cast that worthless worthless servant out into outer Darkness read that right there in other words I don't even want to see him what you messed my car up my my I gave you my car to use and you destroyed it you know what I discovered something we use the concept of tithing to claim ownership to the 90% oh that's heavy but I didn't give God his God no no no no no

what you let left is mine too see in other words the whole idea but I didn't pay my this mine God said that ain't yours either I might come back for another 20% to give somebody so now God got a fight to get was his already and then you try to hold on to it so he take the whole thing with some sickness and disease just to remind you that none of it is yours let me put it this way when you give God a tithe look at me this is deep now the pressure just

start why he got his now he watching you to see how you manage his 90% that's pressure so there's more pressure after you die do you understand that yeah so God want to know okay that ,000 you got for bonus at Christmas I want you to go back and I count what you did with it then write down everything what you did with that you'll be amazed how you abuse that and then he says say come to pray again for another 10,000 Lord what I can do with you God say what I can do with

you so he takes you back to 100 he says start again let me watch you you don't get away from God in the Kingdom management is the highest work it's the highest work he gained five more verse 21 his master replied watch this well done good and faithful servant well done what good everybody say good underline that please good in other words if you don't increase what he gave you multiply it and make it beneficial to bless more people with it you are no good let me tell you something nothing could be better than God

calling you good we keep saying God is good but how we getting him to call you good and Christ is giving us the secret to position ourselves for God to call us good and he ties it to money the scarcest thing in most people's lives is money am I right I say am I right you got plenty fat on your body at least those of you who be on a fast God have a little bit you got plenty things air to breede you got plenty oxygen but that money boy that t he got plenty friends

e but all them broke in other words this this thing this money thing is just like it's like but Solomon says if you ho it it takes Wings it actually leaves you it runs from you the Bible say money runs from people and that's the truth I've watched it it used to run from me now it keeps running at me why cuz it can go through me this guy he says you are good what's the second word faithful everybody say faithful say it again faithful that's an important word underline it two things God observed about

people who are good money managers they are good people and they are faithful people faithful to what let me put it this way you can only be faithful if you are aware that you're doing something for someone else faithfulness is a concept of a steward faithfulness implies you are accountable to someone in the name of Jesus he says you've been faith ful now watch the result you have been Faithful over $10 I will now give you charge of$ 10,000 work does not attract money management does work does not attract money management does whether you attract

more material resources to use for God's work on Earth is determined by how well you manage what he gave you the first time he actually says come and share your Master's Joy wow in other words God begins to trust you so much he lets you into his private business okay let's close this 24 then the man who had received the one Talent he came and said master I knew that you were a hard man harvesting where you have not swn and Gathering where you have not scattered seed by the way this statement is a very

important statement now this Jesus speaking Jesus made a this sentence he made the sentence for the story look at me please I beg you oh God he made up the sentence so the sentence must be important he said the guy's mentality he's explaining what the guy is thinking in other words this man never got his money to grow or multiply not because the money couldn't his mentality stopped the money from growing Jesus said he said in his mind this guy said to himself I know you you mean that's what the sa means the man was

jealous he was angry at a wealthy man and some of you feel a way about me right now since I told you I was dead free who does he think he is see that's why you ain't going never get it listen you can never get help from someone you jealous of write that down please if you are jealous they can't help you I'm telling you if you see somebody blessed go find find out how they did that if you are angry and hate somebody you cannot receive from them you can never receive from someone you

don't respect this man did not respect the master he was suspicious of the master he was jealous of his wealth it's matter of fact it's even worse he felt that the master got his money by using him woo that's a Beman so why should I give him more that's not Kingdom culture verse 25 he says therefore I was afraid fair and money don't go together I was afraid I think I have a good question you know the question is what was he afraid of you know it it doesn't really say he's afraid of you know

look so the fair had to be related to the statement before that because I'm suspicious of you and don't like you and you think you better than me and got everything and y y y y y y I was afraid to get involved in it his mentality stopped his multipication money is an idea see here take your money back he says his master replied you Wicked and lazy everybody say Wicked under line that is we almost think of wicked people as those who doing witchcraft and turning Sal down on people and all kind of things

he said look there's Wicked people sitting right here in this building a wicked person is somebody who mismanaged money we think of a witch as being Wicked well if that's true you sitting next to one don't know where the paycheck gone buying things they can't afford investing in things they can't afford buying stuff trying to compute everybody else that means spending money on Sho and watching thing because it's a f hey be deliv if you buy stuff to be accepted by the world you are not in the Kingdom cuz remember we are in the world

but not of the world so tonight in Jesus name will you be delivered from fashion that stuff will make you poor I heard Donald Trump this week y all saw that program he was on Tire Banks or whatever her name is Ty or something and I and and I just you know yesterday when I was getting ready to go down to the convention and the TV on and he you know I want to see cuz she said he was coming on I wanted to see what he say this guy is a multi-billionaire so she asked

me some interesting question she said do you carry doggy bages home and from restaurant he says absolutely yes she said of course I do she said ask a question she said uh uh do you pay for lunch every time like if someone take you out do you Vol to pay for it he said no he said people just like to believe that that's a IC she said you you're tight he says yes he said if you don't manage money money will destroy you I went to visit the temple down there the temple down there behind

the gate John templ the multi-billionaire own I went to visit him one day he invited me to his house I went to his house behind the gate life key I'll never forget this man I walked in there and I fell out on whole short PS with hole in it straight hole in it and I said this is the multi-billionaire and he even didn't notice me looking underneath he just talking talking talk talking and I said to here I am in my nice suit I come impress him he had on tennis shoes with hole in it

why they comfortable with his feet he liked them he didn't dress up for me from that day for I was delivered I said that's it poor people dress up rich people they wear normal clothes at [Applause] [Laughter] fit that's amazing is it yeah Set Me Free lazy and wicked lazy and wicked by the way before I close I'm going to Define laziness for you it's a word that you probably didn't think about cuz there's something that this guy didn't do that Jesus defined as lazy he defined it he says I have not sown you know

that he said then why didn't you put my money in the bank and at least got some interest in other words even if you wasn't going to get the money to work for me at least let the bank work the money for me I want I want my money to work take the money from thisy this man and give it to the guy who have the most he says that make sense that make good sense to me whoever makes the most money for me I can give him more money to make more money if I

could trust you with more I give you more and you prove I could trust you with more than I give you even more the God give you 100 bucks and you eat the tide cuz this boy can't trust that one next week may go find somebody else who I could get the money through cuz the work of God got to go on and that person holding up my money where God can't go on the church is a wealthy place if everybody pay their tithe and Bas Ministries we pay all of the bills of the ministry

off I talk about in one year off they have done studies in every Church in America and the same thing is in the Caribbean and only 20% of the people in the church pay ties 20 that means 80% of the people sitting in this room potentially don't pay ties only it's small 20% and they're the one who carried 80% they Carri the cost of the lights and the thing and the upgrading and the whole place and keeping air condition on 20% do that the rest just come they kind of just Loaf and just enjoy the

whole thing and never give back to God so that could mean that only 20% in the church really Prosper can he trust you with management you know uh brother uh my trumpet player where he is Odin M Odin where are you get to slip out Odin Moss say his mother call me one day she said pastor M want you to come by my house he said Mar you okay she said I'm okay M she said okay miss m okay so I said okay I'll stop by and I stopped by and she gave me two oranges

she said I had I I I want this I give this to you he was my pastor I said thank you very much and I leaving the door I said you call me for two oranges she said yeah she says somebody gave me 20 oranges that's my Tides clap see you only think of ties as money she was conscious that two of them were not hers she never want she'll never want for anything her thinking is right do you think thed first or you got to wait till you come to church to be reminded by

the pastor everyone who has will be given more and he who have an abundance whoever does not have even what he has will be taken this so negative isn't it that's so depressing he said if you don't manage your money well I'll take the little your G and give it to someone like Pastor miles he'll have abundance and you'll even be worse off than before you get anything because management attracts Prosperity all right let me give you some things to write down just write this down real quick I call this the Kingdom Purpose for money

and resources number one resources and money is a trust he give it to see if he can trust you number two resources and money is a gift that means it ain't yours it's given to you you think you work for money you don't work for money remember you work for purpose money is a gift he gave them the talent number three the quantity of resources you receive is determined by your ability so you should never pray beyond your ability to manage you'll never get that prayer answered let your ability determine the size of your prayer

which means that the more you become good at managing resources the bigger you can request from God that's why every session in this particular series you must come to I laid it out because I want you to come out of the hold and you got to learn how to budget how to invest how to manage what if you learn the skills you start attracting more I put it to you number four resources determine your own creativity now this is very important demand rather your own creativity this is the key here about laziness okay remember this

I got to work in my hands again this is my gift it's my money my talent whatever it is my material things okay I give this to my servant my son I said I'll be back in two years and I want you to improve that and I leave watch this stand your place okay that's all I said to him oh that's deep and I left which means I must know that he has the capability the creativity the dream the the the skill to do what I left him to do and I'm gone let me tell

you something though let me put it another way oh please hear me in the kingdom of God poverty is a lack of creativity God gave Adam a tree but never gave him a table now God says you want to sit down find a way to get a chair out of that tree I ain't going to get it for you God has never made a table in history God has never made a car and that's why Mr Ford is a multi-billionaire and you broke it Cuz Mr Ford went to the mountain and got the iron ore

and made it into a car no car came out of a mountain driving you know here I am somebody had to think and November a lady came to our conference some of you all saw her she gave me a check for $10,000 remember that lady she G check she said she said this is this is the fruit from the seed you planted Dr M she gave me a check for $10,000 she said I read your book on potential that's why I tell you get that book on potential she said I read that book she said

every she says I what was she doing what she used to do she's like a [Music] maid she's the seller of the back of her car yeah sell of the back she said when I read that book say everything changed said my mind changed she said everybody say mind see money is it's an idea she built a business from a book and hire over 200 people and came back to the Bahamas never knew and gave me 10,000 but said this is just a TI yeah your back trunk is good business but you don't use it

the guy with the five he didn't tell the guy how to make it 10 the guy with the two the master didn't tell him how to make it four which means that the the five and the two guy were creative so laziness is defined as lack of creativity and wickedness is defined as not using your brain you Wicked my mother used to say something boy mothers something else say think they say never leave you huh she still Haun me my mother say get out of bed now she says if you lay there grass will grow

in your belly now I used to you know think that was funny she's right she was telling me something deep if you don't develop instead of becoming a garden you'll become Bush she was telling me control the growth of your life don't let things just happen in life get up and use your brain resources demand your own creativity that's the word own there own means he didn't tell him anything he left you need to take money and just sit down and say okay God give me some Revelation let me use the brain the Insight the

wisdom the the talent you gave me to multiply this do you know what we think money is for spending money is for creativity you get $10 look at it for a while just look at it this ain't $10 this is a what's the first one a trust what else a gift and what is it this determines whether I get more I want you to use this list okay this list for the whole year thank you next resources of money must work for us not us for it number six resources of money is not for hoarding

or possessing but for investment now listen it's important to save money saving is not hoing you should save for a purpose not save so Noone else can get it Jesus talked about this in Matthew chapter 6 in the Kingdom culture he says do not lay up for yourselves he didn't say don't lay up management includes saving he said but it's not saving for you for yourself so we have an account in our family and and that account we put money in account we save an account and that account is forgiving so we can give effectively

boy do you think that count is always full God makes your it full because our purpose for it attracts kingdom do you have a giving account in your life get one take $10 go to the bank say I want to open a giving account just just just just try it for 2007 says go to bank this month and say look he has 20 bucks open an account and I'm going to call it my giving account all of a sudden you start kicking into Kingdom culture now God got to give you something to give now the

trick is when the money comes hey boy say he's watching your management yeah he's watching your management number six number seven rather we will give an account of what we did with resources and money I'm telling you the stuff that some of you have done with money God's he calling an account you you going you going to pay for that what have you done with God's resources his resources nothing you see this suit I have on he gave me the suit so I have to use it to stand before you and serve his purposes there

are people home tonight who should be here you know they told God I had underwear but that same person would go to a club or a party God is say you know something all the clothes not closet is mine and you ain't using it for my purpose write this down number eight resource money must be multiplied he told this guy you didn't even get interest on it when God give you something think about how to multiply this of course the first way to multiply anything God gives you is to put it in his system that's

the first thing Bible said lay up for yourselves not Treasures on Earth but lay up for yourselves Treasures in Heaven how do you get treasur in heaven it doesn't mean you send money up to a place Heaven is on Earth remember the colony he says put put it in my kingdom activities Heaven is here in the colony get your money in the hands of the governor he says my work and moth and dust were not corrupted and thieves cannot steal what ain't yours what a way to go number nine resources and money test our goodness

you want to be good God said look you know fasting and praying ain't enough that a that a that doesn't mean you're good that means you're consecrated I want to see if you're good you could be fasting and praying and still mismanaging money and not paying your ties and not giving and and not organizing your spending and not saving properly and not B managing your stuff God said look all the tongue you talking I can't still can't trust you with nothing TS don't attract money management does test for goodness resources and money is the measure

of your faithfulness remember good and faithful if you faithful to God God will check it by how you manage money and resources you Faithful coming to church but you ain't never paying your tages God's confused you are a faithful loser a faithful mismanagement you you know car say you know something something this ain't working you you know always remember this now God watches money say it God watches say it again God watches money say it again God every time I get money I become nervous I really do I'm thinking uhoh oh boy I got somebody

else's things and I got to give an account for for it next resources and money determine our promotion and influence he said because because you've been Faithful over little because in other words I am not going to promote you because you pray and you nice I'm promoting because you was Faithful over a little bit of material resources I will make you ruler that means influence over much more that means possessions friends the power of money is the key to your whole life because it's the power that God uses to measure everything that's why we must

manage it we must learn to budget it we must learn to give it we must learn to tithe it we must learn to spread it around and when he speaks to us even if he tells us give our last 20 $30 a week you say God this hurting me but anyhow it ain't mine and then you give it oh God I trust you with 5,000 imagine God fighting to get 25 bucks from you in a whole church service for for two hours God like this is crazy first of all it's mine secondly the work that

she went to that she think gave it to her the energy is mine and then the dress she got on to hold it back from me with the place that she bought with the cow's mine this don't make no sense God just forget this and he walks off then suddenly there's a lump in your breast because he takes his hands off and they say need surgery for $5,000 all he wanted was 25 the Bible says the blessings of the Lord maketh rich and he adds no sickness no sorrow no infections to it he wants you

wealthy but remember they ain't yours that's all in a kingdom the wealth is what common it's a common wealth so he moves it around whenever you're ready to move it you got to give it up move it around write this down resources and money must not return as given you should never give God back what he gave you give him more I give you two give me four I give you five give me 10 I want to see increase I want to see more this is the power of money I thought I would write this

down for attitude you want to jum this down quickly at ude can change the perception of money remember the guy with the one his attitude made the money look evil he says look you did not you know you you go get money that you didn't work for D in other words he had jealousy coing coveting he hated the rich fell and he felt like he was competing for scarce resources you got it boss and I ain't got it in the in the kingdom of God it ain't you got it and I ain't got it it

belong everything belongs to the government but he was thinking if you got it I ain't got it and if that thinking is is prevailing in your mind you start fighting for it because now you begin to think of this word that God hates it's the word scarcity next scarcity mentality restricts effective management this guy says because I know that you are tight on your money I did not invest it he says scarcity mentality makes you not invest he said boy Pastor M I got my last 10 and I need gas in my car and Holy

Ghost says give it you said going boy this thing scarce so the scarcity holds you back from giving God back what his his already all of you all know all the stories in the Bible I the story I love the the best of Scar is this woman you know who had only two meals left and she said me and my son going to eat this be going to die and then God sends a fat prophet and asks for the first meal now that's scarcity e she had to take the spirit of scarcity and drive it

out of the house and she gave him the last meal you know God was just waiting for that to start the meal Barrel growing and the meal Barrel start growing this is so critical scarcity mentality restricts effective management it stops you from giving so the minute you think this is this this is all I this is all I this is all this is my last that that whole mentality is what robs you from investing in God's economy I found out something very interesting brother listen to me I found out something interesting I fig something about

God okay let secret guess what God loves to to bring you down to your last just to test ownership let me say it again God loves to bring you to your last to test ownership that's all you got plenty in them but he will reduce it to the last just for a moment and then he asks for it just to test what ownership to test what see if sometime God just want to you know he just want to check you he's going to check you he going to check you you know here you are praising

the Lord hallelujah God said let me check her this week and he bring it down right down the end you know car on E just make it in the car churchyard bomb cut it off God said okay now that last 10 bucks you got put that an offering and you don't know that he got somebody in church with 100 bucks that's yours and they looking for you but he said I can't release 100 until you at least a 10 and you sitting there going boy scarce and he says you know something I just want to

test where you think you own that 10 and you hear the spirit talk to you Spirit say okay write the whole check and you going God sound like you uh let me test this if a person with a blue shirt walk in with a pink tie then I'll give you the 100 bucks ain't nobody walking that was that was the devil that was the devil there that was the devil God said no don't play games with me but we do it yeah it's amazing oh by the way this last one here mismanagement of resources and

money is a result of laziness and wickedness and so he says you are you will always lose what you mismanage he said take it from me take it from me say it I will always lose what I mismanage say it again I will always lose what I mismanage I will always lose I what I mismanage say it one more time I will always lose what I mismanage say it again I will always lose what I mismanage no s say it again I will always lose what I mismanage I will what always lose what I what

to see if he can trust you and then to try you it's a trial and if you pass then you get more if you fail he takes what you have from you management of material resources determines your ability to manage spiritual resources manage material resources God will give you a lot of spiritual resources young people young men women listen to me please I'm giving you my secret to my success in my financial life if you manage material things God will give you great spiritual influence some of youall are praying for God to give you Ministry
