đź‘‘ Scroll of the Crown: The Wealth They Forgot to Count
“The blessing of the Lord brings wealth, without painful toil for it.” — Proverbs 10:22 (NIV)
There was a time I thought being a man meant being a provider, financially, visibly, relentlessly.
And while provision is honorable… I now see how the world twisted it.
It whispered that unless it showed up on a paycheck…
Unless it drove something expensive…
Unless it stacked in my account…
Then it didn’t count.
So I started discounting the very wealth I was walking in.
I ignored the kingdom I was entrusted with…
because it didn’t come wrapped in dollar signs.
But God
He’s been breaking that lie off me.
I see it now.
Wealth was never just the job.
It was the laugh of my children, the breath in my lungs, the soundness of my mind, the covering over my home, the memory of a laugh about a goose on a morning walk, and the peace that stayed even when the money didn’t.
The greatest treasures I ever held weren’t things I earned.
They were things I was graced with.
đź“– Testimony:
I used to call myself broke in seasons where heaven called me blessed.
I used to chase approval in places where God had already stamped me anointed.
I used to grind for validation, while ignoring the peace He paid for in full.
But now?
I count different.
“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth… but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven… For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
— Matthew 6:19-21
My heart is different now.
And because my heart has shifted—my posture has too.
đź‘‘ Crown Mirror Reflection:
• Have you been chasing riches and ignoring rest?
• Have you been waiting for peace to come from profit instead of Presence?
• Have you mistaken God’s provision as “not enough” just because it didn’t look like the world’s definition of success?
🙏🏽 Final Reflection:
This isn’t just a mindset shift. It’s a heavenly correction.
A reminder that the most valuable things in life can’t be swiped, transferred, or taxed, but they can be lost, if you forget to see them as sacred.
I’ve learned that peace is profit.
Family is fortune.
Health is holy.
And clarity is currency.
So today I repent for calling myself empty when I was full.
I release the pressure to perform for proof.
And I posture myself in gratitude for the riches I already carry.
🔥 Final Whisper:
“The poor man who sleeps in peace is wealthier than the rich man who cannot rest.”
You are richer than you think.
Start counting like the Kingdom does.
