“The Cause of Poverty is Poverty Consciousness”

Good Morning Everyone!

I am here to share some very important information. I have spent most of my life wanting to be wealthy and prosperous but not knowing exactly how to get there. I thank God that I have never gone hungry, homeless, or completely without. There have definitely been some seriously hard times, but it was nothing that my family could not handle. The reality was I was sick and tired of just getting by or just having enough, I wanted to be wealthy. I started to make significantly more money during my last year or so of college but unfortunately, since my mindset was that of lack or poverty, I squandered the money I was earning and put myself into a lot of credit card debt being able to finally “get what I wanted”. Fast forward to a couple of years later, I am wiser, my relationship with God has drastically deepened, and I am working towards getting married and having a family of my own. There just seems to be one problem, I’m still trying to get myself out of the hole I created for myself two years ago.

Now at this point, I can throw myself a good ole pity party and just work myself into a coma trying to pay off debt…I’M NOT DOING THAT! God has been too good and has shown that He can restore not only my mind, soul, body, and spirit but that He can change my situation. I have been put in a position where I had to start making conscious decisions to go after the abundance God has already destined for me to have. I have to know it’s there for me to have and fight for it. If I can be honest, I am so glad that the money I so desperately wanted at a certain time in my life never came to me. I know that because I had the wrong perspective when it came to money (I had a poverty mindset, and I lacked financial knowledge and discipline) the money would have changed me and caused me to put myself in an even worse situation than I was already in. Now that I am taking my future a lot more serious, I have taken the time to make sure my heart and my mind are in the right place to receive the abundance that is mine.

God had to take through an interesting journey to get my heart in check.  First, I left my job of four years to try something new that promised to pay a lot more. However, when I started to make significantly more money, I worked such long hours I hardly saw anyone I loved or went to church. Then I got a position back where I started which paid me pretty well but I was miserable! Then it happened, during a full week at my church where we had worship every night, I sought God harder than I ever had before. It wasn’t until that Sunday that God spoke so clearly and said my last day at my current job was June 15, 2018. Being in a place where I could finally put my faith to the test, I did. It was the best move I had ever made. God took me on a journey of trusting Him like I never have before. I found so much joy and peace in a time (of about 3 months) where I had no job and no secure means of paying my bills. I can’t help but be reminded of the worship song that got me through that time, I’ll post it for you all below. This song really showed me that the journey with God is not an easy one, but it’s more than worth it.

Now after getting my spiritual life in order to prepare for my abundance, I had to get some knowledge from those who have obtained the wealth that I want. I was surprised to see that some of the most effective methods and formulas for gaining an abundance of wealth had more to do with your mental and spiritual state than anything else! My God! God is truly preparing me for an abundance that is more than I could ever dream of.  In this next video I am sharing with you all, Bob Proctor gives some amazing insight on how to gain wealth by first changing your mind. If you don’t tackle that first, you’ll never be ready when the money gets to you and you will more than likely lose it or misuse it. One of the quotes from this video is “being broke is a temporary situation, being poor is a mental condition.” How powerful is that! Just because you may be broke for a time, if your mindset is correct, money will surely come back to you in a short period of time. He also says that the cause of poverty is poverty consciousness which goes back to the biblical principle that says “as a man thinketh, so is he”. We have to be mindful of how we think about money, ourselves, and God. You may not have the more you want simply because you don’t think it’s possible, or because you don’t think you deserve it. That’s a complete LIE! I challenge you all to read and see what God, our marvelous Creator, says about who you are and the abundant life He has for you. Then I challenge you to listen to this video below, really take time to hear and listen. After you’ve done that, apply the biblical truth, coupled with the helpful knowledge from those who have acquired wealth, and watch your life change. The change has to begin in YOU, but once that starts taking place you are going to become a magnet for money, blessings, and abundance. You have got to have faith in God, faith in His word, and the discipline to keep your mind on the things of God and all that He has for you. Don’t allow your current situation to be a distraction. You’ve got this because God’s got you! Abundance is your portion and has always been, you just have to do what is necessary to get your hands on it.

HAPPY WEDNESDAY EVERYONE!
