Affirmation:
Circulation Over Consumption: How I Handle Money Reveals My Future!
How you spend your money is how you build your personal economy.
Your money isn’t just a tool—it’s a seed. And the way you circulate it determines the kind of harvest you’ll see.
Most people don’t realize that money has movement. It either flows into things that build or drains into things that break.
Jesus didn’t just talk about money—He taught that where your treasure goes, your heart follows.
📖 “Give, and it will be given to you…” (Luke 6:38)
📖 “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” (Matthew 6:21)
Story 1: Derrick – The Bailout Trap
Derrick was a kind-hearted man. Whenever his cousin got arrested, he was the first to answer the call.
✔ First time? He paid the bail.
✔ Second time? Same.
✔ Third, fourth, fifth? It became a pattern.
One day, Derrick looked back and realized he’d spent over $20,000 in just two years helping someone who never changed.
He wasn’t circulating money—he was leaking it.
And it hit him:
“If I had taken that same money and used it to start my business, or to sow into someone who actually wanted growth, I’d be further along—and so would they.”
That moment changed him. He began asking God not just who to help, but how to help with wisdom.
✔ Stewardship means knowing what’s inside of people before you spend what’s inside your account.
✔ It’s not harsh—it’s holy.
✔ It’s alignment with God’s will, not enabling dysfunction.
Story 2: Miss Lila – The Quiet Investor
Miss Lila was 72 years old and lived modestly.
✔ No big car.
✔ No flashy house.
✔ But her money moved with purpose.
She gave faithfully to her church. She supported scholarships at the local high school. She helped single moms with groceries—but only after sitting with them, praying with them, and making sure they were ready to grow.
One year, the mayor recognized her publicly because of the economic ripple effect of her generosity.
What nobody knew was this:
✔ Her small gifts circulated into businesses, ministries, and people that created jobs, food programs, and community stability.
She understood the power of circulation.
Her currency created a current.
Circulation Is the Key to Growth
✔ When you hire the right people,
✔ Invest in the right soil,
✔ And give out of Kingdom generosity,
You’re not losing—you’re planting.
You’re creating a personal economy that honors God and rewards wisdom.
That’s the difference between:
✔ Spending and circulating.
What to Do Before You Spend
✔ Let your money rest in an interest-bearing account until God gives direction.
Don’t just:
🚫 Spend emotionally
🚫 Invest blindly
🚫 Give out of guilt
Instead:
✔ Give your money energy by increasing your intelligence.
✔ Learn the power of circulation.
What to Ask Before You Spend:
1️⃣ Is this fertile ground?
2️⃣ Does this reflect my values?
3️⃣ Is this an emotional rescue or a strategic investment?
4️⃣ Will this bring fruit—spiritually, financially, or relationally?
Final Word:
You’re not just managing dollars—you’re managing destiny.
✔ God wants to flow through you, not just to you.
Circulate with clarity. Steward with vision.
And watch what happens when your economy aligns with Heaven’s economy.
