How to get the POWER to generate real wealth

A sermon arguing that Christians should move beyond salvation to steward money as divine power. The speaker rejects the idea that poverty is holy, presents each dollar as a soldier to deploy, and uses the Parable of the Talents to show that God rewards multiplication and obedient rulership over resources.
Chapters
Most Christians are gonna stop at salvation because what happens is they get saved, they sing a few songs, and then they struggle for the rest of their lives. They're broke, bound, and begging for any form of breakthrough. And why is the case? Because you, including myself, we didn't learn how to steward our kingdom finances, our kingdom authority, and our kingdom power. Because when you get saved, all that does is change your eternity. But then God asks you to start to steward your life in the way he calls you to be. And that ultimately is determined determined by your authority and how you use it as your identity in Christ. The problem's not that God didn't bless you. The problem is that you never managed what he already gave you. And a man who refuses to manage his money disqualifies himself from managing a move of God. So we're going to go ahead and focus on this key topic, which is understanding how to move forward in kingdom finances so you can use the power that God already gave you to generate the wealth that he applied to you. And that's what we're here to talk about, because In the kingdom of God, it's not a democracy. And this will apply to healing and financial breakthrough and all forms of bondage. So it doesn't just apply to finances, but we're going to focus on this because in the kingdom, you're not an elected official because there is a king and you are his servants. You're stewarding all the things that God gave you, even as your identity as a son and daughter is ingrained in your heart. Because the kingdom wealth flows from the throne of God. It's distributed by command, not a consensus. This is extremely important to understand. 'Cause there's no polls, there's no committees, there's no debates, there's no Congress. There's just one ruling voice, and that's the King. And you don't get to go ahead and vote for provision that God gives you. All you can do is obey for the provision that you already have so you can steward more for the kingdom. This is God's economy. Agreement doesn't release power. Alignment to God's will does. Putting on the robe of righteousness is key. You don't have to understand the instruction. You just have to move when the King says. There are too many believers in this world, so many that even I know, that are asking God to bless what they created, what they stewarded, instead of stewarding what God commanded them to do. Because Deuteronomy 8:18 doesn't say God gives you money. It doesn't say he gives you faith. In fact, it doesn't even say he gives you a business plan. It says it give— he gives power to give wealth, to get wealth, to move forward. And that's key because the word power is dunamis, explosive, miraculous power. Miraculous ability, kingdom capacity, supernatural might. This isn't a check; it isn't even a job. And guess what? It's definitely not an investment tip. It's power. It means for you to get out and go get the wealth. It means that it's possible to be filled with faith and still be broke. That's a really tough thing for people to hear, but it's true. You can even be filled with faith and still be stuck in the healing that you've been desiring for for many, many years. If you never tap into the power of God stepping into the stream, in the flow of the Holy Spirit, you're going to get stuck in your season for the rest of your life. Because faith is the door that gets you access to Christ, but the power that gives you the authority is what you have to receive from God in order to move forward. You can have Jesus Christ in your heart and still be completely financially irrelevant if you refuse to walk in kingdom order. God didn't say he rained down dollars from the sky. He said he'd give you a divine power to multiply. And let's go ahead, let's be brutally honest, because I've There where you're at. If your money manages you, then you're not going to be free. That's a key statement. I really want you to grab it because you have to be able to master money so money doesn't master you. If you are just saved, you can be stuck and never move forward. God didn't pull Israel out of Egypt just to give them a song, just to give them manna, just to give them quail in the desert. He gave them systems. He gave them instructions. He gave them land, silver, Gold and an inheritance, but freedom without stewardship is just wandering in the desert. If you treat money like Pharaoh owns it, then you will still live like a slave. Stewardship is not budgeting; it is rulership. When you treat every single dollar like it's a soldier, you're not going to waste their time. And you know that soldiers don't beg, and soldiers don't panic; they just move forward in obedience and operate in victory. You assign it, you invest it, and then you multiply it. So let's go ahead and break. I want to talk about one other lie that really causes problems in the kingdom of God. People say all the time money is the root of all evil, and that's not true. In Timothy, it talks about the love of money is the root of all evil. Money is a seed in the hand of a believer. It's not even a tool because it's a seed, because it has to be planted. It's also considered a weapon because it's a strategy, because it can destroy the kingdom of darkness. Godly men built altars with money, but foolish men build idols. You can't serve both God and money, but you can serve God with money. The world knows how to use money and then push their agendas. The enemy isn't scared of your fasting. He isn't even scared of how much money you have. And he surely is not as scared of your faith if you do not move forward in faith. Because what happens is forward action, coupled with finances, coupled with faith, coupled with prayers, coupled with righteousness, shake the spiritual realm. But your dollars are meant to build a kingdom. That's why you have to sow into the kingdom, because you're not going ahead and tipping heaven 10%. You're engaging in the law of divine multiplication. The world calls it a return on investment. God calls it a harvest. The law of sowing and reaping is not a prosperity gimmick. It's a kingdom principle. That's why the world uses it and then shames the Christian when they try to do it. It's older than Abraham. The seed is not the end of your increase. It's the beginning of everything that you have authority over. You don't get to give to be rich. You give to take territory back from the enemy. When you start thinking like that, you'll start to see how powerful the things that God has given you really is. Stop looking at sowing as subtraction. It's not how it works. It's not losing, it's launching. Every single dollar you steward well is a declaration to God. It says, I trust in your economy more than I trust in the world system. I trust and I stand on the rock that is Christ. 'Cause some of you are praying for God to fix your finances. But the thing is, is you never fixed your mindset in order to be able to steward things properly. You were taught that lack is holy, that poverty equals humility, that struggling is spiritual. But let me say as clear as I can, there's nothing holy about being— not being able to pay your bills. There's nothing spiritual about drowning in debt and not supporting your pastor or your church. Jesus didn't die for you to live paycheck to paycheck. He died to restore dominion. Amen. including over your money. The early church was never broke. And guess what? They were financed so well that it was only the second time in history that that was the case. They had land, they had houses, and they had the power to sell and give at will. And that was under the thumb of Rome. You don't need more faith. You need to unlearn the lies that you trained yourself and you accepted to stay small, to stay small in this world. And you need to start operating in kingdom principles, 'cause in God's monarchy, when he speaks, It becomes law. Provision is going to be tied to your position. This is really key. Promotion comes through your obedience. When Jesus gave the parable of the talents, he didn't ask the servants for ideas. He just gave them instructions and they went ahead. The one who multiplied was rewarded with rulership, and the one who buried the money stripped, cast out, and rejected. God doesn't bless passivity. He rewards productivity. and results. He doesn't multiply by some form of magic. He multiplies by your movement and your obedience. Jesus said, to whom much is given, much will be required. And if you're not multiplying what God gave you, you're not walking in kingdom principles. And there are too many believers that treat money like it's mysterious, like they don't know, like it floats through the windows during worship. But God never said money was the miracle. He said that your obedience allows the miracles to happen by bringing his presence into those situations, because You're the vessel, the carrier, the steward. And if you can't handle even your bank account and managing the things that you're trying to do, how can he trust you with anything else? Imagine being entrusted with revival and crusades. It's so much bigger than that. A broke kingdom can never advance. All it does is retreat more and more. And guess what? You're not waiting on the money in your breakthrough. Money is waiting on you to take advantage of the situation you're in and to manage it so you can move forward through godly wisdom and godly principles. Money doesn't make a man, but it does allow the mission to become reality. And let's go ahead, let's be real. God's not responsible for your harvest. You are. You plant a seed, God waters it, but you got to go out there and get it. He provides the increase, but you got the hole to get everything started. He gives you the power to gain wealth, but you have to move the plow. And so if you don't sow, you can't grow. If you waste the seed, Don't blame God for the famine that comes because you were not prepared for it, because he gave you the opportunity to be in a position where you could feed not only yourself but others. God's not mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will also reap. And that's not just a promise, it's a law. God never called you just to survive. He called you to subdue, to dominate, and to build, to finance the kingdom of God on this earth. And if you reject the command to steward, you actually are rejecting the invitation to reign. A Christian who won't manage their money can never manage the nations they're called to rule. If you can't multiply what's in your hand, don't expect to put God— have anything in it. So go ahead, let me ask you this simple question: are you going to keep using poverty as a crutch for disobedience? Are you going to keep using your faith and that you're waiting on God to move as a crutch for your disobedience? Because that's the truth. You have one option here. Can you rise as a kingdom financier, or will you shrink and continue to go back into the places of comfort? Because the world is waiting as the kingdom of God is expanding, and God's looking for those who will steward his wealth his way. Stop praying through breakthrough while you ignore the blueprint he already gave you. Stop asking for favor and open doors and for people to help you while you reject the instruction you've already received. Stop waiting for the overflow while you mismanage the little that you. You already have the power, you already have the seed, and you already have the assignment. So go ahead, take it, multiply it, because the steward who refuses to grow is no better off than the day that he got saved. Here is your opportunity to move forward in victory. Are you going to go ahead and seize it and move forward in faith, knowing that the provision you have been seeking for so long is in front of you? It's going to chase you, and it's going to be there for you. Amen. But all you've got to do is step out on faith, step out in victory, and watch God move the mountains that you think are in your way and turn them into valley-filling plains that you can walk straight in an acceleration.
