IF MONEY WASN'T A FACTOR, WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH YOUR LIFE?

A pastor friend of mine made a post on Instagram recently asking people this question - "if money wasn't a factor, what would you do with your life?"

I saw the post and The Purpose Preacher in me wouldn't let me go without reading some of the comments.

I scanned through the comments and I realise money was not the problem for many people; many of them lacked purpose and were full of fears.

Why am I sharing this with you?

You see, money is good, and surely, "money answers all things", says the Bible but money is not everything you need to prosper and succeed in life.

The first thing you need is PURPOSE!

When you know God's purpose for your life, you know what to be passionate about. You know what to give your attention and time to. You live for dominion instead of survival.

The second thing you need is FAITH

See, many people are just using money as an excuse not to lift a finger in chase of their dreams. They wake up and the excuse on their lips is "if I had money now, I would have applied to Harvard". Excuse me, have you at least found out the requirements to apply to Harvard first? Do you know what Harvard is looking for?

If you do, then put your WILL POWER to work and make that application. Trust God and have faith. Just as money is a currency on earth, faith is a currency in heaven! In other words, faith with God just as money works with men! With faith, you can ask God for anything!

The third thing you need is GROWTH

Your life is capped by the level of your growth! Growth is the only guarantee you will make it in life. If you are never growing or don't have a plan to grow, nothing will become yours.

Whatever God has created you to be, you will have to become it. God's part is done, your part is what's left. God's part is settled, your part requires your commitment to growth and learning.

God doesn't do magic, He only does miracles. His miracles require your involvement in putting to work His principles.

So, stop using money as an excuse! You have more than what it takes to deliver your dreams and purpose.

God is counting on you, and earth awaits your manifestation. I believe in you.
