Practical Keys To Creating Wealth

               It is rather absurd to imagine that we are exempt from the norm of
               what the secular counterparts engage to make wealth. That will be a
               lie! There is no true wealth without diligent effort in what we have
               been entrusted with.


               We are not to walk as unwise, but rather with great understanding
               that in every labour there is profit!


               While we have been given the “UPPER” hand of God’s favour and

                                                                      st

               There are conditions that have been laid out clearly throughout the
               scriptures that if applied will lead to the tangible blessings of wealth
               and prosperity.

               dedicated effort; it’s the Lord who makes that possible. He is the
