- 0:04And I'm going to tell you something in this broadcast that you might not have
- 0:07ever heard any other preacher or teacher of the Bible tell you before.
- 0:11There's something about money that the devil really doesn't want you to know.
- 0:15And if you listen to the end of this podcast, I'm telling you,
- 0:18it's really going to help you. This podcast is going to help your money,
- 0:21your life, and your future.
- 0:22Because after all, who doesn't need more income in their life?
- 0:26We all could use more. So I hope you stay with me till the end.
- 0:28Thank you so much for watching. You do me a favor. Will you follow me, subscribe?
- 0:32That way you can see the next podcast when it drops. And will you share it with
- 0:35somebody and leave a review? I'd really appreciate it. All right.
- 0:37But I want to get started with the idea of wealth. You know,
- 0:41the money isn't for the rappers or the pimps or the prostitutes or the pornographers or anything else.
- 0:48The money in the world is actually for you. It's for good people who love God,
- 0:52who want to do good things. And I can prove it to you.
- 0:54In the Bible, in Genesis, originally, in the beginning, God didn't design mankind to struggle.
- 1:00He created Adam and Eve. And you know what he did? He put them in the garden without struggle.
- 1:04So the original creation was not that you had to struggle, strive,
- 1:08work 50 hours a week or whatever.
- 1:09Now, I'm not saying you don't have to work because the Bible says if you don't work, you don't eat.
- 1:13But what I'm saying is this toil, this never-ending need.
- 1:16And that's why God said you can't serve mammon and God.
- 1:21What he's saying is you can't make money your slave.
- 1:24See, you serve God and money's just a tool, all right?
- 1:28So in Genesis two, it says, the Lord God planted a garden and there he put the
- 1:32man who he formed and out of the ground, the Lord made every tree grow and it was pleasant.
- 1:35So you see that there was a garden and then it said, I've given you every herb
- 1:39that yields and every tree with fruit and it'll be good for food.
- 1:42So in Genesis three, you see where the hard part came.
- 1:45It said, cursed is the ground for your sake and toil you'll eat all the days,
- 1:50both thorns and thistles.
- 1:51So we were good until eve jacked
- 1:55the whole thing up and here we are all right so there originally
- 1:58was not the stress the strain the the hamster wheel the constant it that just
- 2:04wasn't what it was all right so there's a way to create wealth in your life
- 2:08and it starts with this the number one hack for being rich the godly hack number
- 2:14one is that you have to know that it belongs to you.
- 2:17So the Bible says, it talks about the blessing of Abraham. And there's a blessing
- 2:21of Abraham. And you can find that in Genesis chapter 12.
- 2:25And he says to Abraham, I'm going to make you, he says, I will bless you.
- 2:29I'll make your name great.
- 2:30I'll make you a great nation. And I'll bless those who bless you and curse those
- 2:32who curse you. And you might be thinking, I'm good for Abraham.
- 2:36But the Bible actually says that same thing belongs to you.
- 2:40So the only way that you can become rich is first to know that God wants to bless you.
- 2:46And so many Christians don't know that. They fight each other.
- 2:49They drag each other down. They say, that's a prosperity gospel.
- 2:53But yet all these people saying it's a prosperity gospel. Can I tell you something?
- 2:56Y'all are going to work. You might even be listening to me on your way to work.
- 2:59Everybody is trying to increase income because in this world, you need money.
- 3:03And some of the people that speak against prosperity the most,
- 3:06like some of the greatest anti-prosperity dudes, they make more money than you've ever made.
- 3:11So you need to really get in the Bible and see what the Word of God has.
- 3:15And I really hope that this is going to... Look, all I want you to do is just
- 3:18spend literally 13 minutes with me. Can you just give me 13 minutes?
- 3:23I promise you I'm not going to lie to you. And what I tell you is straight up
- 3:26out of the Bible. If it's not in the Bible, you can write me and say, Lisa, you're a liar.
- 3:30But I'm telling you, it's right here in the Bible. So if you'll listen,
- 3:33I really think it'll help you. Galatians 3.13, Christ has redeemed us from the
- 3:38curse of the law, having become a curse for us.
- 3:40For it's written, cursed is everyone that hangs on a tree, that the blessing
- 3:44of Abraham would come on the Gentiles, that we would receive the promise.
- 3:49So the Bible tells you that God said the blessing of Abraham is supposed to come on you.
- 3:55So it's great for him to say, hey, I'm going to bless you. I'll make your name great.
- 3:59And you're like, oh, whoop-dee-doo. but the Bible actually says that blessing is for you.
- 4:03And sometimes what people don't realize, not only does God say he's gonna bless you,
- 4:08But then he says, I will bless those who bless you. That's a double blessing.
- 4:13He will bless you and others will bless you. And a lot of Christians miss this.
- 4:18So there is no gospel where you just don't have anything because God's original
- 4:24plan is for you to be blessed.
- 4:26And let me get to the point about the devil in a minute.
- 4:29But I'll show you why this is important in the scriptures. So the number one
- 4:33hack for money is, A, you've got to even know it belongs to you because you
- 4:37can only get what you know.
- 4:39God said that my people perish for lack of knowledge. So his people are perishing,
- 4:44because they don't know any better.
- 4:46But let that not be said about you. You're gonna know the truth after today.
- 4:50So then when we see God talking to Abraham and telling him all the good stuff
- 4:53he's gonna get, we see in Genesis 13 where he said, Abraham was very rich in
- 4:59livestock, silver and gold.
- 5:00See, God knew there'd be preachers telling you it's just spiritual.
- 5:03So he put this in the Bible on purpose so that you could read with your own
- 5:06two eyeballs. Wait a minute.
- 5:08It says he was very rich in livestock, silver, and gold. So it's not spiritual. This is actual stuff.
- 5:16Come on. It's stuff. The blessing of Abraham is stuff. Okay.
- 5:21It's not just spiritual.
- 5:23Yes, spiritual, but it's also financial.
- 5:27So what about Isaac in Genesis 26, 12?
- 5:30It said, Isaac sowed in the land and reaped in the same year,
- 5:33a hundredfold the Lord blessed him.
- 5:34And the man began to prosper and continue prospering till he became,
- 5:39here's that word again, very prosperous.
- 5:42You know that Isaac sowed in a famine?
- 5:44So the number two way, godly hack two, is you gotta sow something.
- 5:49You can't have a garden if you don't sow.
- 5:52You can't reap something if you didn't plant.
- 5:54So this isn't like, I'm not telling you you have to give to me,
- 5:57but if you go to a church, you have to tithe.
- 5:59If you want to partner with our ministry, you can. You just go to preach at
- 6:02lisa.com, and you hit give, and you sow a seed there.
- 6:05But for me, I'm a tither. I'm a giver.
- 6:08It's like a contract. I was telling my kid, if you go to buy a car,
- 6:12and you love the car, you pick it out, everything's great, but they slide that
- 6:16contract across the table, and you're looking at that contract,
- 6:19and that's everything you want, but you don't sign it, the car doesn't belong
- 6:23to you, Even though the description of the car, the color, all of it's on there.
- 6:27Until you sign the paperwork, you don't get to have the car.
- 6:31And that's how it is with the promises and covenant of God. That there's a covenant,
- 6:35a blessing that's like a contract promise.
- 6:38That when you put your money into his kingdom, he is obligated then to multiply it.
- 6:43Do you remember when Jesus was looking for people to feed on the side of the mountain?
- 6:47And they were like, all we got are these few loaves and fish.
- 6:49He said to him, give it to me.
- 6:51When they gave it to Jesus, he held what wasn't enough up to heaven.
- 6:56And he said, thank you, Father. And it multiplied.
- 6:59That's how it is with your tithe and your offering. Maybe you don't have enough for the house.
- 7:04Maybe you don't have enough for the car. Maybe you don't have enough for all your bills.
- 7:07But if you would give God your tithe, he will hold it up to heaven and he will multiply it.
- 7:13So godly hack number two for wealth is you need to be a tither.
- 7:16That helps you to enter into the contract with God over your money.
- 7:21All right. The Bible says in Proverbs 13, 22, a good man leaves an inheritance
- 7:26to his children's children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous.
- 7:30Okay. So if you're a good man, you're supposed to have enough for your children's
- 7:34children. But if a lot of Christians were honest, they wouldn't have that.
- 7:38But it's okay. You can get there. Don't be discouraged. If you're like,
- 7:41this podcast sucks. I don't have that.
- 7:43It's all right. Don't get discouraged. I'm telling you, God has a plan for you.
- 7:47He has a plan to prosper you.
- 7:48He has a plan to do great things for you, if you'll just get the word in your
- 7:52heart, it will change you. And maybe you've never heard this before.
- 7:55Maybe people have told you money's not a big deal. But if money wasn't a big
- 7:58deal, why are you going to work?
- 8:00If money's not a big deal, if your child gets sick, you need money to go to
- 8:02the doctor. You need money to buy food.
- 8:04This world functions on money. There's nothing wrong with money. It's a tool.
- 8:08There's something wrong with
- 8:09being covetous. But you can receive the blessing of God today. All right.
- 8:14Then we see that Solomon, you know, he was one of the richest men.
- 8:17Everyone likes to talk about how rich Solomon was. But do you realize what Solomon did?
- 8:21Solomon, you know, back in the day, they would do an offering and they would
- 8:25only give like one animal or two animals or three. Solomon gave a thousand.
- 8:29Solomon sacrificed 1000 animals. And when he did that, God said,
- 8:33Solomon, what do you want me to do for you? It like triggered heaven.
- 8:36And so I will tell you in my own life that I've noticed that when I sow financially,
- 8:41that it's opened the windows of heaven. and I'll give you a quick testimony.
- 8:45Maybe it'll encourage you. But I really wanted to travel. I've been believing
- 8:48God to go different places.
- 8:49And we have the ministry, which is fine, whatever.
- 8:53But there was no way that I could take a trip to where I wanted to go based
- 8:56on what we're doing in the ministry.
- 8:58And so I just asked the Lord when I'm like, I'd really love for you to bless
- 9:02me personally. And I sow seed financially or whatever.
- 9:04Then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, an incident happened, and we got a decent amount of money.
- 9:10Didn't come from the church or whatever. Didn't come my husband,
- 9:13didn't have to labor for it.
- 9:14And we were able to take a trip to Africa. It was completely supernatural.
- 9:18It was the most beautiful trip I ever took.
- 9:20So God cares about the things that are in your heart and he loves you and he wants to bless you.
- 9:25And so when you trust God with your money, he will multiply it.
- 9:29He will open wide the floodgates of heaven.
- 9:31So Solomon sacrificed and he sacrificed more than normal. And then the Lord
- 9:36said, Solomon, what do you want me to do for you?
- 9:38You see, there might be people that tell you that God doesn't want you rich,
- 9:41But I'm telling you, the Bible says that the Lord, it says, let them shout for joy continually.
- 9:47Let them say, let the Lord be magnified, who has pleasure in the prosperity of a servant.
- 9:54Now, here's the thing I wanted to talk to you about the devil. All right.
- 9:57Well, two things. Maybe this will help you because I don't know.
- 10:00Maybe this message is hard for you and you're like, man, I don't know about
- 10:02this. But OK, let me tell you something.
- 10:04Solomon built a temple in the Bible and it was it was mac daddied out,
- 10:09man. And it was full of gold and this and that was beautiful, right?
- 10:12But you know, the New Testament says that God doesn't dwell in buildings made
- 10:16with man's hands. The Bible says that God lives inside of you.
- 10:20God makes his home inside of you. God makes his house inside of you.
- 10:25So if he ordains and makes that temple that gorgeous, and now he lives inside
- 10:31of you, why would he want you just to be run down in like a rickety shack and not have anything?
- 10:35That doesn't make sense. He lives inside of you. He likes nice things.
- 10:39Heaven is a beautiful place.
- 10:42So it's the will of God for you to be blessed. Now, let me talk to you about
- 10:45this concept of the devil. Maybe this will help you.
- 10:49If you get healed of a disease, which is, of course, always the will of God.
- 10:53If you've listened to my other podcasts, which please check them out.
- 10:56It's of healing and different things. But if you listen to it,
- 10:58you know that healing is the will of God, okay?
- 11:01If you get healed, but you still have no money and no influence,
- 11:05you can't really do much in this life.
- 11:07You just kind of live your own little life and you live and die and that's it.
- 11:11But if you become prosperous, if you become blessed, if you have a big business
- 11:15where you could bless other people or do things for the church or I don't know,
- 11:19do things for a few families or whatever, you begin to then impact other people's lives.
- 11:26And with money now, you literally take chunks out of the devil's kingdom.
- 11:32I'll give you example, in my area, there's a lot of people on drugs. Okay. Just is what it is.
- 11:38Well, let's pretend that all of a sudden I grow to be prosperous and very prosperous.
- 11:43And I decide I want to build a halfway house or a safe house for people.
- 11:47And then I build this safe house because I've got extra money.
- 11:49And then I get a program and then I help people. Well, guess what I'm doing now?
- 11:53Because I have money, because I have influence, I'm building this safe house.
- 11:57And now I'm taking a chunk out of the devil's kingdom.
- 12:00So what I've learned is that Satan fights Christians having money more than
- 12:04anything because that's the one thing that will attack his kingdom.
- 12:10You see, he wants Hollywood celebrities to be rich because he wants them to
- 12:14puke their mess all over your life. and he wants the pornographers to be rich
- 12:17because he wants them to destroy families, marriages, kids, whatever.
- 12:21And he wants drug dealers to be rich because he wants to wreck your body.
- 12:24So he wants all those people to have money. He wanted Jeffrey Epstein to have
- 12:28money, but he doesn't want you to have money.
- 12:30Because if you're a good person and you have money, you can take a bite out of his kingdom.
- 12:35And that's why he fights it. But I would issue you a little challenge.
- 12:41I would tell you to go look at all the Bible verses about money.
- 12:44What does the Bible say about prosperity?
- 12:47What does the Bible say about wealth and riches? Do you know that Deuteronomy
- 12:508.18 says, you'll remember the Lord your God. He gives you power to get wealth.
- 12:55That's another hack. The ability to get wealth is not something outside of you.
- 13:00It's something on the inside.
- 13:02You already have everything you need to become rich. You just need to ask God,
- 13:07give me wisdom and revelation, Lord.
- 13:09Show me what to do. Show me how to get it. And he will.
- 13:13That's all you need. There is a multitude of Bible verses about prosperity.
- 13:18And if you will look in the Bible, you will find them for yourself.
- 13:22And then when you read this, it's impossible to think that God wants you to
- 13:26be poor. You know, when he brought the children of Israel out,
- 13:29he brought them out with silver and gold.
- 13:30He said, Abraham was very rich in silver and in gold. And that's you.
- 13:35You're supposed to be very rich.
- 13:37Deuteronomy 8, 18, you remember the Lord, your God. He gives you power to get
- 13:40wealth. For what reason? that he would establish the covenant.
- 13:44Again, it's about God's promise, God's promise of blessing, God's promise of
- 13:48wealth, God's promise to help you and your family.
- 13:51God loves you and he wants to bless you and he wants to prosper you.
- 13:56Proverbs 13, 22, a good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children
- 14:00and the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the just.
- 14:03You know that sinners are supposed to store up money just for you. That's pretty cool.
- 14:07Psalm 112, praise the Lord, bless the man who fears the Lord and his delight
- 14:11is in his commandments. His descendants are mighty in the earth.
- 14:14The generation of the upright wealth and riches will be in their house. Come on.
- 14:19This is the one I was telling you about Psalm 35, let them shout for joy and
- 14:23be glad who favor my righteous cause.
- 14:25Let them say continually, let the Lord be magnified who has pleasure in the
- 14:30prosperity of his servant. That's another one.
- 14:34You know, the devil hates God. He doesn't want God happy. So if God says he
- 14:37has pleasure, look, I'm not saying it. Don't take my word for it. It's in the Bible.
- 14:42If the Bible says that God has pleasure in your prosperity, then don't you think
- 14:46the devil fights that because he doesn't want God to have any pleasure? Of course he does.
- 14:50So the Bible says that, that he wants you to have much, like he wants you to be prosperous.
- 14:56Joshua 1a, this book will not depart from your mouth, but you'll meditate day
- 14:59and night. Then you'll observe to do all that's written.
- 15:03Come on. Proverbs 11 25, the generous soul will be made rich and he who waters will water himself.
- 15:09Proverbs 3, 9 through 10, honor the Lord with your possessions and with the
- 15:12first fruits of your increase. So will your barn be filled with plenty.
- 15:17Prosperity and health. 3 John 1-2. You know, people are like,
- 15:20I don't like that health and wealth gospel. Well, I hate to tell you,
- 15:22Jesus said it's in the Bible.
- 15:24Beloved, I pray above all things you'd prosper and be in health as your soul prospers.
- 15:28And Malachi 3-10. Bring all the tithe in the storehouse.
- 15:31If there's food in my house, prove me, says the Lord, if I'll not open the windows
- 15:35of heaven and pour out such a blessing. Come on.
- 15:37I could read these all day long to you. But at the end of the day,
- 15:40God wants you to be blessed. He wants you to be healthy.
- 15:43He wants you to be happy. And money is a tool. But let me tell you a little secret before I close.
- 15:48Sometimes you've heard people say, if God can get it through you, he'll get it to you.
- 15:52In other words, God just wants you to throw your money out to everybody else.
- 15:55Now, you should be generous. The Bible says the generous soul will be made rich.
- 15:59But can I tell you something?
- 16:02I'm a parent, and I wouldn't just throw my money out to a bunch of other kids and not my own daughter.
- 16:07I love my daughter, and I want her to be blessed.
- 16:10And that's how God feels about you.
- 16:13He said to Abraham, I will bless you, because he's his friend.
- 16:18So one thing you gotta get in your heart if you're gonna get this wealth system
- 16:21is that God really loves you. And he just wants to bless you because he loves you.
- 16:25He's not blessing you so you can just give it all away.
- 16:28He actually really loves you. And there's nothing wrong with you having money,
- 16:32as long as the money doesn't own you.
- 16:35You don't have to be covetous. You can have it, enjoy it, and then you can share it with people.
- 16:41But religion tells you that God just wants you to give everything away.
- 16:45The devil hates the fact that God loves you, and I'm trying to tell you in this
- 16:47message that he really loves you.
