THE ABILITY TO CREATE WEALTH

So then, we must keep firmly in mind that God gives each one of us the
abilities that we need to create wealth. Be persistent in seeking out both
the understanding of your natural abilities and the revelation of the
opportunities that will help you transform those abilities into wealth-
creating activities.

Once you have identified your gifts, begin to take some practical steps
to put those gifts into action: Perhaps you can start setting aside a small
amount each payday from the income that you currently earn to re-train
in the area of your interest. Or perhaps, in your current work, you can
volunteer to take on projects that develop and spot-light your natural
talents. Or perhaps you can take short online courses that build your
skills over time. Or use an hour of your leisure time each day to start
your dream business. As you navigate this leg of your journey, be
confident in the knowledge that God has put in you something of value
that will prosper you, and that He will instruct and guide you in the way
He has chosen for you.

“I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to profit,
who leads you by the way you should go.”
(Isaiah 48:17 (NKJV))

“So, I saw that there was nothing better for a man
than to enjoy his work, because that is his lot.”
(Ecclesiastes 3:22)
