10 Biblical Wealth Secrets from King Solomon (Biblically Proven_ · Bible Ascent

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: What if I told you there was a man who
• 0:01
  Speaker 1: made Jeff Bezos look poor, a man whose net worth
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: was over two point one trillion dollars in today's money.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: That is not a typo two trillion, more than the
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: entire GDP of most countries, more than Apple, Microsoft, and
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Google combined. But here is the strangest part. He lived
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: three thousand years ago, before banks, before the stock market,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: before cryptocurrency, before the Internet. His name was King Solomon,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: and by the time he died he owned enough gold
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: to fill an Olympic sized swimming pool seven times over.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: His annual income was twenty five tons of pure gold
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: every single year. Now you might be thinking, okay, he
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: was a king. Of course he was rich, but that
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: is not the whole story. Solomon was not born into
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: unlimited wealth. His father, David, was a shepherd boy who
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: killed a giant with a stone and became king through
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: decades of warfare. Solomon inherited a kingdom, yes, but what
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: he did with it shocked the entire ancient world. In
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: just twenty years, he turned Israel into the richest, most
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: powerful nation on earth. Queen's traveled from Africa just to
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: meet him. Kings sent ambassadors to learn from him. Traders
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: competed for contracts with him. How not through war, not
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: through conquest, not through luck. Through ten specific biblical principles
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: that modern billionaires are secretly using right now but will
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: never admit it. And before we go any further, I
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: need you to do something that will change everything. If
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: you are serious about building real wealth, not just watching
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: videos about it and staying broke, hit that subscribe button
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: right now and comment the word wisdom below. Why Because
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: every single week on Bible Assent, we decode ancient biblical
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: secrets that Wall Street does not want you to know.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: These are principles that built empires before America even existed.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: And I can only keep making these videos if you
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: show me you are actually applying this information. So comment wisdom,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: smash that subscribe button, turn on notifications, and let us
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: unlock the vault that has been sealed for three thousand years.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Secret one Wisdom First, Wealth follows automatically. When God appeared
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: to young Solomon in a dream and said, ask me
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: for anything in the world. What would you have asked for?
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Be honest, most of us would say money, right, maybe
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: power over our enemies, maybe fame and recognition, maybe a
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: long life. Solomon was offered a blank check from the
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: creator of the universe, and he asked for none of
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: those things. He asked for wisdom one thing, wisdom to
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: lead people well and make good decisions. And God was
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: so absolutely blown away by this answer that he said
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: something remarkable. Because you did not ask for wealth, or
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: long life or the death of your enemies. I am
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: going to give you wisdom like nobody has ever had.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: But I am also going to throw in wealth and
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: honor and peace and everything else you did not even
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: ask for. This is recorded in Second Chronicles, Chapter one,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: verses eleven through twelve. Here is the principle that most
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: people completely miss in their pursuit of money. Value attracts
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: money automatically. When you become genuinely valuable to the marketplace,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: money has no choice but to chase you down. You
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: do not chase it anymore. It chases you. Steve Jobs
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: became a billionaire not because he chased money, but because
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: he mastered design and user experience. Oprah became a billionaire
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: not because she wanted to be rich, but because she
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: mastered human connection and storytelling. Warren Buffett became a billionaire
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: not because he was greedy, but because he mastered understanding
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: business fundamentals and patience. None of them woke up every
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: morning asking how do I make a quick buck? Today?
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: They asked how do I become excellent at something the
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: world desperately needs. This is the shift that changes everything.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Stop asking how can I make more money right now?
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Start asking how can I become more valuable to more people?
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Invest in courses that teach real skills. Read every single day,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: even if it is just ten pages. Find mentors who
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: have already done what you want to do. Master a
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: skill that solves expensive problems. When you do that consistently,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: wealth becomes an automatic byproduct of your value. Secret to
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: the compound effect of diligence Proverbs ten to four says
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: something that sounds almost too simple to be valuable. Lazy
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth. But
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: do not let the simplicity fool you. This is one
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: of the most powerful wealth principles ever written. Diligence is
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: not about working eighty hours a week until you burn out.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: It is not about hustle culture and grinding yourself into dust.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: It is about showing up consistently day after day, even
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: when you do not feel like it, especially when you
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: do not feel like it. Solomon did not get rich quick.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you a story that proves this. When
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Solomon decided to build the Temple in Jerusalem, he could
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: have rushed the project to get it done fast. He
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: had unlimited resources, he had thousands of workers. He could
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: have finished it in two years if he wanted to
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: impress people quickly. But he did not. He spent seven
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: full years on that project, seven years of daily decisions,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: seven years of daily oversight, seven years of daily excellence
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: in every single detail. And when it was finally finished,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: people traveled from other continents, crossing deserts and oceans just
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: to see it with their own eyes. That building stood
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: for four hundred years. That is the power of diligence
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: over quick fixes. Let me ask you a question. Would
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: you rather have one million dollars handed to you today
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: or a penny that doubles every day for thirty days.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Most people instantly pick the million because it sounds bigger.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: But that is a massive mistake. That penny becomes two
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: cents on day two, four cents on day three, eight
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: cents on day four. It does not look impressive at first,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: but by day thirty that penny has become five million,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: three hundred eighty six thousand, seven hundred eighteen dollars, more
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: than five times what the instant million was. That is
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: compound growth, That is diligence. Small actions, repeated daily with
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: consistency create wealth that shocks everyone who doubted you. The
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: problem is, we want microwave results with crockpot effort. We
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: want to go viral overnight without building an audience for years.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: We want a million dollar business without the foundation of
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: daily discipline. Solomon knew better. He understood that empires are
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: built one brick at a time. Fall in love with
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: the daily grind, Fall in love with the process, fall
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: in love with showing up when nobody is watching. Do
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: that for five years, and the results will change your
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: bloodline forever. Secret three Never depend on one stream. Ecclesiastes
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: eleven to two is one of the most powerful financial
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: verses ever written in human history. Invest in seven ventures,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: yes in eight, for you do not know what disaster
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: may come upon the land. Solomon literally wrote the book
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: on diversification three thousand years before one finally figured it
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: out and started teaching it in business schools. Look at
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: how Solomon structured his wealth. He had trading ships bringing spices, silk,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: and exotic goods from India and Arabia. He had copper
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: minds extracting valuable metals. He had vast agricultural land producing
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: food and materials. He had real estate throughout the Kingdom.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: He had international trade deals with Egypt, Phoenicia and distant nations.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: He had manufacturing operations. If one business sector crashed, he
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: had six others still printing money every single month. Now
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: apply this to your life today. Maybe you have a
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: job right now, great, that is your first stream. But
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: what happens if you lose that job tomorrow because your
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: company downsizes. What happens if your industry becomes obsolete. You
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: need a side business. You need investments working for you
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: while you sleep. You need multiple skills that can generate
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: income independently. Start building your second stream this month, not
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: next year, This month, a freelance gig using skills. You
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: already have an online course teaching something you know, dividend
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: paying stocks, real estate. If you can afford it, Just
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: start somewhere. Because financial security is not one stream flowing strong,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: It is seven streams. Flooding in from different directions, so
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: that drought in one area does not destroy you. Secret four.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Debt is a cage you build yourself. Proverbs twenty two
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: seven hits completely different when you really stop and hear
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: what it is saying. The borrower is slave to the lender.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Read that again, slowly. Slave. When you owe money to someone,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: you are not free anymore. You are working for them.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Your time is their time, your money is their money.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: You are serving their interests, not yours. Let me be
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: crystal clear about something thing, because people misunderstand this. Not
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: all debt is evil. Strategic debt is different from stupid debt.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: A mortgage on a rental property that pays for itself
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: and generates cash flow. That is strategic. Student loans for
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: a medical degree that leads to a high income that
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: can be strategic if managed right. But credit card debt
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: on a vacation you cannot afford that is financial suicide.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: A car loan for a luxury vehicle to impress people
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: who do not care about you, that is volunteering for slavery.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: The average American is drowning in over sixteen thousand dollars
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: of high interest consumer debt right now that is sixteen
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars working against them every single month. That is
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: interest piling up while they sleep. That is stress, anxiety,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: and chains they build themselves, one purchase at a time.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Solomon would look at modern credit card culture and call
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: it exactly what it is, slavery with extra steps and
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: better marketing. If you are in debt right now, make
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: an aggressive plan today. Cut the lifestyle inflation immediately, stop
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: trying to look rich, and start actually building wealth. Attack
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: the debt like your freedom depends on it, because it
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: absolutely does. Every dollar you send to creditors is a
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: dollar that could be building your empire instead. Secret five,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Your reputation is your real wealth. Proverbs tend to says
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: ill gotten treasures have no lasting value, but righteousness delivers
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: from death. Translation. You can make dirty money fast, you
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: can cut corners, lie, cheat and get rich quick, but
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: you cannot keep it. You cannot sleep peacefully with it,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: and you definitely cannot pass it down to your children
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: with pride. Solomon built his entire wealth on a foundation
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: of integrity. Every deal was honest, every promise was kept,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: every transaction was fair and beneficial to both parties. And
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: because of that, Rock solid reputation, Kings from other nations
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: wanted to do business with him. Traders competed for contracts
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: with him. His word was worth more than gold because
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: everyone knew it was unbreakable. In modern America, we have
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: seen this principle proven over and over. We cancel people
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: who lose their integrity. One scandal can destroy a career
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: built over decades. One lie can collapse a business built
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: over generations. Think about the companies that have collapsed not
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: because their products were bad, but because they lost trust.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Think about the celebrities who lost everything, not because they
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: lost talent, but because they lost character. Build your wealth
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: on honesty, even when it costs you in the short term.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Do the right thing even when nobody is watching. Keep
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: your promises even when it is inconvenient. Treat people fairly,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: even when you could get away with exploiting them. Because
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: here is the truth that Solomon knew. Reputation is worth
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: more than any bank account could ever hold. Once you
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: lose your reputation, not even Solomon's two trillion dollars can
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: buy it back. Secret six. Wing it and you will
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: lose it. Proverbs twenty one point five says the plans
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: leads to poverty. Solomon spent years planning the temple before
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: he laid a single brick. Every measurement was calculated precisely,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Every cost was projected accurately, Every material was sourced strategically.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Every risk was accounted for in advance. Nothing was left
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: to chance or luck. Wealth is not an accident that
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: happens to lucky people. Wealth is architecture. Wealth is engineering.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: You need a written financial plan with actual numbers and dates,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: not vague wishes like I want to be rich someday.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: That is a fantasy, not a plan. A real plan
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: says I will save three thousand dollars by June thirtieth
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: by cutting these specific expenses. I will earn an extra
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: one thousand per month by March by starting this specific
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: side business. I will invest fifteen percent of every single
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: paycheck into these specific index funds starting next week. Sit
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: down tonight, not next month, and map out your next
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: five years financially. Be brutally specific, Be ruthlessly realistic, Be
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: completely committed. Where do you want to be in five years?
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: How much money do you need saved? What income level
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: do you need to hit. What skills do you need
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: to develop to get there? What investments do you need
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: to make? Write every detail down, make it measurable, make
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: it tra packable, because a goal without a detailed plan
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: is just a fantasy that will keep you broke forever.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Secret seven Your network determines your net worth. Proverbs fifteen
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: twenty two changed my entire approach to business and wealth. Building.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: they succeed. Think about that. Solomon, the wisest man who
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: ever lived, still surrounded himself with experts and advisers. He
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: had financial counselors, he had trade negotiators, he had building architects,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: he had foreign policy advisers. He knew he did not
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: know everything, and he was secure enough to admit it.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: There is a real story about a young trader in
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: New York who lost one hundred thousand dollars trying to
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: day trade stocks by himself. He watched YouTube videos, he
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: read blog posts. He thought he could figure it out alone.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: He lost everything in sin months. Then he swallowed his
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: pride and hired a professional mentor for five thousand dollars.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: That mentor taught him proper risk management, proper strategy, proper psychology.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Within one year, he made back everything he lost and
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: doubled it. That five thousand dollar investment saved him years
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: of expensive mistakes and hundreds of thousands in losses. You
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: do not need to figure everything out alone. You are
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: not supposed to find people who have already done what
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: you want to do. Hire coaches, even if it hurts
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: financially in the short term. Join master minds with people
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: ahead of you. Read books by people who succeeded, Pay
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: for courses from experts with proven results. The information exists,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: The road map exists. The only question is whether you
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: are humble enough to seek it out and secure enough
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: to admit you need help. Secret eight Give your way
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: to wealth. This sounds completely crazy until you actually test
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: it in your own life. Proverbs eleven twenty four says
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: one person gives freely, yet gains even more. Another withholds
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: unduly but comes to poverty. Wait, what, how does giving
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: away money make you richer? That seems backwards. Here is
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: how it works. When you give generously, you create circulation
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: in your financial life. You signal to your subconscious mind
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: that you have abundance, not scarcity. You are not hoarding
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: because you are afraid. You are giving because you trust
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: more is coming. That mindset shift alone attracts opportunities you
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: would never see from a scarcity mindset. But it goes
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: deeper than psychology. When you give value to people, they
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: remember you, they trust you, they want to work with you.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: They refer clients and opportunities to you. Generosity is the
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: most powerful long term marketing strategy that exists. It builds
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: relationships that turn into partnerships that turn into millions of
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: dollars over decades. Speaking of generosity and giving value, every
• 18:09

  Speaker 1: We get to keep serving you with weekly Biblical wealth content.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Everybody wins. That is Kingdom economics in action. Start giving
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: today in some way. Give your time to mentor someone,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: give your knowledge to help someone struggling. Give your money
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: to causes that matter, not because you expect immediate returns.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: Or a tax deduction. But because you are planting seeds
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: that will grow. Some seeds grow in weeks, some grow
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: in your years, some grow in decades. But every seed
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: you plant will grow and produce a harvest if you
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: are patient enough. Secret nine right action at the right time.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: Ecclesiastes three to one says there is a time for everything,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: and a season for every activity under the heavens. Solomon
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: understood timing at a level most people never reach. He
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: knew when to invest aggressively and when to save conservatively,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: when to expand operations and when to consolidate resources, when
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: to take big risks, and when to play it safe.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Think about the people who bought real estate in two
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: thousand and eight and two thousand and nine during the
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: housing crash. Everyone else was panicking and selling. They recognized
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: the season and bought. They became millionaires within ten years
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: just from recognizing timing. Think about people who invested in
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: bitcoin when it was under one thousand dollars. Everyone else
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: said it was a scam. They saw the opportunity when
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: others saw only risk. You need to develop discernment and
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: market awareness, study economic trends and cycles. Understand how industries
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: evolve and change. Pay attention to what is happening in technology, politics,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: and culture. Read voraciously, talk to people in different industries.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Because opportunity has an expiration date. When the door opens,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: you need to walk through it before it closes. But
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: you also need the wisdom to know when to walk
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: away from what looks like a good deal but is
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: actually a trap. Solomon made his fortune partly because he
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: knew when to act decisively and when to wait patiently.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: He knew when to make bold moves and when to
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: be cautious. Develop that same instinct by studying, observing, and
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: learning from both successes and failures around you. Secret ten
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Money is a tool, not the goal. Here is the

  Speaker 1: secret that completes and gives meaning to all the other nine.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Proverbs three to nine says, honor the Lord with your wealth,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: with the first fruits of all your crops. Money without
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: purpose is meaningless. Money without meaning is just numbers in
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: a bank account that will not satisfy you, no matter
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: how big the number gets. Solomon understood this at a
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: profound level. He did not just accumulate wealth for himself.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: He built the temple that became the spiritual center of
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: a nation. He helped the poor and established justice systems.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: He funded projects that served people for generations. His wealth
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: served something greater than himself, and that gave his life
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: meaning Beyond the money, What is your why? Why do
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: you really want money? Is it just to buy things
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: that will not matter in five years that gets old
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: incredibly fast. Or is it to create real impact in
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: the world, To build a legacy your children will be

  Speaker 1: fund causes that align with your values, to create jobs
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: for people in your community. Money is a multiplier. It
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: multiplies who you already are at your core. Generous people
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: become more generous with money. Selfish people become more selfish
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: with money. Wise people become wiser with money. Foolish people
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: become more foolish with money. The question is not will
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: you get rich? The question is who are you becoming
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: while you pursue wealth. Start thinking about wealth as stewardship,
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: not ownership. You are managing resources for a limited time
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: on this earth. What will you do with them that matters?
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: How will you be remembered after you are gone. Solomon
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: could have hoarded everything selfishly. Instead, he built things that
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: outlasted him by centuries. That is real wealth that transcends
• 22:57

• 23:16
  Speaker 1: and apply at starting this week, not next month, not
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: when you feel ready. This week. Maybe you sign up
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: for that online course you have been putting off to
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: increase your value. Maybe you create a detailed debt payoff
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: plan and cut up your credit cards. Maybe you reach
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: out to a mentor you have been too scared to contact.
• 23:37

  Speaker 1: started with nothing but a prayer, for wisdom. He ended
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: ruling an empire that changed history. You have access to
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: the same wisdom right now. The same God who blessed
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: him wants to bless you. The question is not whether
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: the principles work. They have worked for three thousand years.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: The question is whether you will act on them or
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: just watch more videos and stay broke. Go build the
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: wealth you are called to create. Not to hoard selfishly,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: but to serve generously, not to boast proudly, but to
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: bless others. That is the Solomon way. That is the
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: Bible Assent way. That is wealth that lasts not just
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: for a lifetime, but for eternity.
