“For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.” (Romans 14:17)
The world measures wealth in money, possessions, and status. God measures wealth in purpose, stewardship, and impact. God’s economy is not limited to nations, recessions, or inflation — it’s rooted in His covenant and eternal principles.
Biblical Foundations of Kingdom Wealth Creation
a) God Gives Power to Create Wealth
“But you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant…” (Deut. 8:18).
Wealth is not self-made — it is God-enabled for covenant purposes. The "power" includes:
• Ideas and creativity (Exodus 31:3–5 – Bezalel filled with wisdom to craft).
• Favor and connections (Esther before the king).
• Skills and diligence (Proverbs 22:29 – excellence brings you before kings).
b) Wealth is for Dominion and Expansion
Genesis 1:28 → mandate to “Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, subdue it, and rule.”
Wealth creation is part of dominion living — shaping society, innovating, and influencing.
c) Examples of Kingdom Wealth Creators
• Abraham – blessed to be a blessing (Gen. 12:2).
• Joseph – economic strategist who saved nations (Gen. 41).
• Solomon – wisdom produced wealth that drew kings and queens (1 Kings 10:23–24).
Breaking Poverty Mindsets
Poverty is more than lack of money; it’s a mindset that limits what God can do through you.
a) Characteristics of a Poverty Mindset
• Scarcity thinking → “There’s never enough.” (contradicts Phil. 4:19).
• Survival mentality → only focused on daily needs, never long-term impact.
• Fear of risk or investment → burying talents instead of multiplying them (Matt. 25:24–27).
• Dependence mentality → always waiting for others, never creating.
b) Breaking Free with the Word
• Romans 12:2 – Renew your mind.
• 2 Corinthians 9:8 – God makes all grace abound to you, for every good work.
• John 10:10 – Jesus came to give abundant life.
Poverty is not humility; it is limitation. True Kingdom humility is stewarding God’s blessings for His glory.
Kingdom Prosperity With A Purpose
Wealth in God’s Kingdom is not just for luxury; it is for covenant, impact, and influence.
a) Prosperity for the Gospel
• Luke 8:1–3 – Women of means funded Jesus’ ministry.
• Acts 4:34–35 – Early believers shared wealth, meeting every need.
• Romans 10:14–15 – Preaching the Gospel requires resources.
b) Prosperity for Influence
• Proverbs 22:7 – “The rich rule over the poor.”
• Ecclesiastes 9:16 – “Wisdom is better than strength, but the poor man’s wisdom is despised.”
• Kingdom people must rise in wealth to have a voice in shaping culture, media, education, and governance.
c) Prosperity for Generational Impact
• Proverbs 13:22 – “A good man leaves an inheritance for his children’s children.”
• Wealth creates legacy, institutions, and lasting impact beyond personal life.
Principles For Living In The King’s Economy

6. Innovation & Creativity (Isaiah 45:3).
