"...wisdom is a defence; money [symbolic of wealth] is a defence..." - Ecclesiastes 7:12. To make this Scripture more lucid, let us use a mathematical allegory. Basic mathematics tells us that if a=c and b=c, then it necessarily implies that a=b. Applying this to the above Scripture: wisdom=defence and money=defence, thus we can deduce the identity relationship that states wisdom=money. This corroborates with last week's insights where we stated that Wisdom=Wealth.
A poor [but] wise man delivered a city but his voice was not heard [Ecclesiastes 9:14-15]. You will immediately notice a contradiction in this text. From earlier explanations we see that 'wisdom' and 'poor' don't go together. He was operating at a sub-optimal level. Wisdom and Money should have been a 100% percent weapon but he employed only 50% of his armoury [i.e only wisdom].
To solve this problem, Jesus said: "...i will give you a wisdom and a mouth [not physical oral cavity but influence and affluence which amongst other things include money]. This is why in local parlance, when a person has money it is usually stated in colloquial terms that the person is "mouth-ed". Like i always teach, money is not good or bad in itself i.e it is neither moral or immoral, it is amoral. Money takes the dimension of the possessor. To the pure all things [money is a thing] are pure. Conversely, to the un-pure all things are un-pure. To a good man money is good but to a bad man money is bad. What is not good about money is the LOVE ["love" in this context means the obsession and topmost prioritization] of money. This is because either God is your priority or Mammon [the spirit of money] is. Money is only but a means to an end and not an end in itself.
Guess what? God created money! "...the silver is mine and the gold is mine saith the LORD of hosts..." - Haggai 2:7 In the biblical and medieval times, silver and gold were the predominant currency. So if God created money and i am joint-heirs with Christ, it means i legally inherit what God has! When Jesus was asked to pay His taxes, He did not speak in tongues! He simply authorized someone to go and withdraw from one of His numerous bank accounts [guess the water, the fishes are the Lord's and the money thereof! Hehehe]. When it came to changing water to wine [something that money cannot do], He performed a miracle! What the devil usually does is to introduce the [ab]use of money. "...money answers all things...". When i wish to acquire a Mega Mansion in Park View like a certain someone [@gn_] just did, i don't necessarily have to pray to God. I will just wire the required funds from my account to the corresponding account, Se fini! However when i need a miracle [what money cannot do], i quickly go down on my knees!
God will not do for you what you can do for yourself! He will do for you what you cannot do for yourself so He will ultimately take all the glory. So if you are still waiting on God to take your bath for you, do your dishes or lace up your shoes - i have got two words for you: STOP TRIPPIN'! Wake up and become alert to your own financial responsibilities! God only empowers you for wealth but it is your responsibility to go and get! You are not reading this quintessential and very expository insight because i know how to speak in tongues! You are reading it courtesy of money! It cost a good amount of notes to purchase an internet bundle and consequently subscribe for a data plan. The device i use to broadcast this is not free either. Money is a tool! One of the only incentive for my doing this is primarily that the blessings it brings to others like you far outweighs the financial implications. So if i have affected your view of money, let me know. Celebrate this knowledge like it was your birthday! Selah.
I close with this Scripture i pray i will be able to expand some other time. This is one of the reasons you should become prosperous because your wealth can and should be used to propagate God's Kingdom here on earth!
"Cry yet, saying, thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities [remember you are a city set on a hill, thus the agglomeration of the individuals = cities] through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad; and the LORD shall yet comfort Zion, and shall choose Jerusalem." - Zechariah 1:17
