SERIES: Day 4
The Lord makes poor and makes rich; He brings low and lifts up.
-I Samuel 2:7 | NKJV
Another area names have effect on, is your FINANCIAL LIFE. The truth of the matter is that, it is not everyone who is going to get rich. Getting rich is like leadership. It is not everyone who is a leader and it is not everyone who is going to be one. Forcing yourself to lead when you are not made one, will bring chaos. There are some people who have been given the power to make wealth the right way. We are not all the same and that is the understanding we have to get. If someone is rich, don’t be jealous or envious. It is what it has to be. In 1 Samuel 2:7, God is the One who makes someone rich and this same God is the One who makes another poor as it pleases Him.
You will realise that the poor has a name and the rich also has a name. In the Book of Records in heaven are all the list of names of the people God created purposely to fit His will to be poor and those He also made to be rich. What you will eat, drink, where to sleep etc will be provided by God for you, but to get to the top as a rich person was not what God intended for you as a poor person. God did all these for a purpose and it is Him alone who understands why. This divine order is linked to so many factors. One of the factors of this divine order of riches is the day you were born. The day you were born has a name and it depicts the destiny whether you will become rich or not.
For instance Tuesday and Thursday borns are destined to multiply and be fruitful and this is linked to riches. So it is no wonder that a Tuesday or a Thursday born can become rich. But what works against this sometimes is the first name, middle name and last names we were given. If your first name means little as the name Paul is, you can be rich alright but not to the extent that you were destined for. Your name can even mean poverty but you were born as a rich person by God. The harsh experience of your parent or guardian can make them give you a name that God didn’t intend for you to have. The name you have can even mean laziness and this is also linked to poverty.
When you look through the Bible, majority of the rich people have names and majority of the poor people also have names. You will also notice that the rich people blessed by God were not lazy. Riches is linked to diligence. You can’t fold your arms and get rich the right way. The name you have, is what will propel you to work towards the direction of success that will make you rich. There are some people God didn’t make them poor but it is because of their own laziness. If you are made rich by God and you have a lazy attitude towards work (Proverbs 6:6,9), you can never be rich. Don’t expect money to fall from the sky because God doesn’t rain money; He rains manna.

The name you have is linked to your financial life because money is also a name.
