Alexander Lorenzo discusses three types of people wealth is attracted to: the generous, who follow biblical principles; the patient, who avoid quick riches; and those who speak life through positive words rooted in God's word.
Wealth is attracted to 3 types of people, and this is how God intended it. Starting with the first person, the one who is generous. The Bible says it and science confirms it. Proverbs 11 says, give freely and become more wealthy, be stingy and lose everything. And science shows that for one reason or another, the people who are more generous are on average making more money.
This is a fact. It's not only giving, it's also receiving, right? So the whole point of The Christian faith is to receive what God did on the cross, right? To believe in the blood of Jesus. So our whole entire salvation is the ability to receive the gift that came from God. And so normally people that can receive well is also people that can give well, and they're typically the people that make the most money.
The second person is the one who is patient. Proverbs 28 says greedy people try to get rich quick but don't realize they're headed for poverty because greed pushes you to make decisions that you normally wouldn't make at a speed you normally Wouldn't make them. It destroys your patience and therefore your ability to make good decisions.
So to be clear, I, you know, I think this is actually accurate. Patience generally is a principle of the Bible— long-suffering, right? Fruit of the Spirit. I would also follow it up though that there's actually scripture in the Bible that specifically talks about, you know, quickness. There is sometimes you need to be quick, specifically just to be clear with you. And not all decisions are financial decisions. Some of them are fueled based off of love. An example of this is the Book of Ruth, right? Boaz redeemed Ruth, married her, took her whole inheritance, pretty much made what some people would call a very hasty decision in 24 hours. And so yeah, it's— I believe patience is good, but I believe ultimately what's more important is following the will of God. And sometimes he'll tell you to move fast. I learned this the hard way, by the way.
The 3rd person, lastly, is the one who speaks nothing but positivity, the one who speaks life. In Proverbs 18, it says the tongue can bring death or life. Those who love to talk will reap the consequences, and those will be either good or bad.
I agree with that last statement as well. You know, speak life no matter what you're going through. It's— the life comes from the will of God, right? So when you speak life, it's basically you're speaking what God has already done. Speaking life can be positive but not God. And that's why I say that it's not just about speaking positive, it's about speaking God, speaking the word of God, what he said, you know, things like that, right? Because what can be perceived as positive can be something that is negative to God. So it's not just about speaking positive.
