It's even in the Scriptures
* 16 out of the 38 parables talk about money.

3.Being A Blessing
1 Chronicles 4:9-10 : Jabez was more honorable than his brothers; and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, "Because I bore him in pain." Jabez called upon the God of Israel, saying, "Oh that you would bless me and enlarge my border, and that your hand might be with me, and that you would keep me from harm so that it might not bring me pain!" And God granted what he asked.
*Book : Jabez....Honourable man to ask for a blessing to g e a blessing.
* The enemy mutated us for asking for a blessing.
