When Abraham heard that they took Lot away in Genesis 14, he went to fight for him. He led his men and they brought Lot and his goods back, and this man was going to give Abraham some money.
Genesis 14:22-23
23 That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:
24 Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.
May this spirit be birthed in your heart today, that the wealth of the world is not valuable to you; that what you value is what God gives you. Be content with what God gives you as what suffices you, and your heart will be settled trusting the Lord, not putting your attention and eyes on man!
You have an aunt in your family; she has given birth to three children for four men. She goes to the United States every week and her shop is stocked up; she is living an iniquitous life. You envy her, wanting everything she has. I do not think you will last as a Christian with that strange desire. You must come to a place that everything, plus everything she has, does not amount to the head of a pin in your sight because it is not wealth from the Lord. That is the spirit which qualifies you for correct kingdom wealth and positions you for God’s specific instructions and guidance as He begins to help you and bless you.
I have seen young women who shared testimonies of money that sugar daddies gave them as a means of divine favour; this is not kingdom wealth. God has a way He blesses His people at a higher level, such that you are not a slave of anybody.
PRAYER: Lord, my heart is fixed trusting in You, I embrace the higher things You have prepared for me above satanic alternatives.
