BECOMING A GOD-KIND OF MILLIONAIRE BIZ SERIES – Day 4

SYSTEMS

Genesis 2:3 says - And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it; because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

The question is – Can God get tired? If he cannot get tired, why does he need rest?

When we are reading the bible we should not just take it as any other book and take the words at face value. It behooves us to think about what we read and search the true meaning. The bible tells us in Proverbs 25:2 that it is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honor of kings is to search out a matter. People become king by searching out what God has hidden because when you find them kings would look for you. The secret to your wealth is hidden in the word.

So we need to understand what the word rest means here is to cease from labor. To stop actively participating because he has put systems in place that would never require him to labor again.  The bible tells us in Genesis 1:29 that God gave us every seed bearing plant such that every plant would have a seed that can be planted to replace and multiply that plant, human reproduce themselves so God doesn’t have to keep laboring over and over again to create one thing. He does it once and it begins to replicate itself.

Now let’s look at this in today’s terms. If God was a business man he would not go out every day to make money like we do. He would work and then rest from his labor i.e. when he works and gets paid he ensure the money begins to work for him.  Our creator fully understands what many of us have not begun to understand.

When we go out each day to work and at the end of the day we spend that money then we need to go back to work again to get more money to sort out our expenses. Which means we would forever be slaves because at what point would all our needs be met such that we do not have to work again. The answer is never so we would work till we can work no more. Our bodies are finite and cannot last forever so at a certain point we must stop and therefore finally become bankrupt.  On the flip side if the days we are strong and can work we set the money we make to begin to work for us no matter what that money would not get tired. The key therefore is any money we make must first be sent on an errand to work for us and we take care of our expenses and daily living from the proceeds of the work done by the money living the initial money put in to keep on working or better still after taking care of expenses from the proceeds send what is left to join the first seed money to keep on working. With the power of leverage in a few years you would be financially free to do whatever you want while this money keeps working for you.

Let me blow your mind right now? Are you ready for this? Because we are about to go deeper?

Let’s turn our bibles to

Matthew 25:14-30Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁴ For it is like a man (WHO IS THE MAN – GOD) who was about to take a long journey, and he called his servants together and entrusted them with his property.

¹⁵ To one he gave five talents [probably about $5,000], to another two, to another one—to each in proportion to his own ^[a]personal ability. (THIS TELLS US THERE WAS NO FAVORITISM) Then he departed and left the country.

¹⁶ He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them ( MAKING MONEY BY BUYING AND SELLING THINGS OR SERVICES MEANING LABOR WHICH IS MAKING MONEY WHILE PHYSICALLY PRESENT), and he gained five talents more.

¹⁷ And likewise he who had received the two talents—he also gained two talents more.

¹⁸ But he who had received the one talent went and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money.

¹⁹ Now after a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them.

²⁰ And he who had received the five talents came and brought him five more, saying, Master, you entrusted to me five talents; see, here I have gained five talents more.

²¹ His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, ^[b]admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the ^[c]blessedness) which your master enjoys.

²² And he also who had the two talents came forward, saying, Master, you entrusted two talents to me; here I have gained two talents more.

²³ His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, ^[d]admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the ^[e]blessedness) which your master enjoys.

²⁴ He who had received one talent also came forward, saying, Master, (WHO IS HE REFERRING TO AS MASTER – GOD) I knew you to be a harsh and hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you had not winnowed [the grain]. (SO IT IS GOD HE IS SAYING REAPS WHERE HE DID NOT SOW AND GATHERED WHERE HE HAD NOT WINNOWED)

²⁵ So I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is your own.

²⁶ But his master answered him, you wicked and lazy and idle servant! Did you indeed know that I reap where I have not sowed and gather [grain] where I have not winnowed? (GOD DIDN’T DENY THE ACCUSATION)

²⁷ Then you should have (invested my money with the bankers) (INVEST MEANS TO COMMIT MONEY IN ORDER TO EARN A FINANCIAL RETURN), and at my coming I would have received what was my own with interest.

²⁸ So take the talent away from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents.

²⁹ For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will be ^[f]furnished richly so that he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away.

³⁰ And throw the good-for-nothing servant into the outer darkness; there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.

The servant that was given one as the scripture pointed out earlier it was because he knew that this servant knew him well, knew his principles and how he made money and having known all these was why he was given one talent knowing that if he had acted the way the master would have done he would have made much more than the others.

Our God is a God of abundance and the kind of riches he has in store for us we can never achieve it by our labor, by anything we have to physically do. There is a saying that you make a living by our income (which is what we receive for what we do) we make a fortune by what the system does for us. You can never get rich with wages only with profits. 

Without systems in place you business would not be aligned with God's Business Model. 

The next cardinal point in God's Business Model is relationship and would be discussed tomorrow. 

Have a blessed day. See you tomorrow.
