Why God Wants You to Have Wealth

Have you ever wondered why God wants you to have wealth?

It's not just about enjoying a comfortable life, but about fulfilling your purpose and using your gifts to make a meaningful impact.


Think of Joseph of Arimathea, a wealthy follower of Jesus who generously provided his own tomb for Jesus' burial. Joseph's wealth enabled him to serve God and others in a significant way.


Wealth gives us the resources to share our talents and abilities with the world. When we have the financial means, we can invest in our passions, support worthy causes, and bless others. God wants us to prosper, not just financially, but in every aspect of our lives, so we can live out our purpose and make a difference.


Joseph's story teaches us that wealth is not just a blessing, but a tool for serving others. His wealth allowed him to provide a dignified burial for Jesus, demonstrating his faith and love. Similarly, when we use our wealth to further God's kingdom, we honor Him and bring glory to His name.


So, don't be afraid to ask God for abundance, not just for personal gain, but to amplify your impact.


Remember, wealth is not the goal; it's a means to an end. When we use our resources wisely, we can change lives, spread love, and bring hope to those around us.


I hope this has blessed you.

You Need Clarity of Purpose
August 24, 2025
In 2017, I applied to speak at TEDx. Rejected. In 2018, I applied again. Rejected. In 2019, I applied twice—both times, again, rejected. But I didn’t stop. Why? Because I was stubborn about my purpose. Like the widow in Luke 18 who kept returning to the judge, pleading for justice, I kept showing up. I kept believing that one day, the door would open. Eventually, it did. That TEDx stage didn’t come because I was the most eloquent or the most visible—it came because I refused to give up. I’ve learnt that any success you desire in life will demand persistence. Not talent, not applause, not connections—persistence. When all else fails, try persistence. When clarity is blurry, try persistence. When the applause is absent and the doors are locked—try persistence. Seest thou a man diligent in his work? He shall stand before kings (Proverbs 22:29). If I could share one counsel with every dreamer, it would be this: Be stubborn about your purpose. Be relentless in your pursuit. For in due season, you will reap—if you faint not. I believe in you.
