The currency of Heaven

When God blessed Israel with riches, he gave them

skill and commodities. However, when he instructed

them in Deuteronomy 12 to put a 10th of their annual

gains aside as a tithe and take them to wherever, He

commanded them to go and feast on them there. He

also said, if where I am sending you to meet in my name

is far, then convert your tithe into money - what

money? Silver and Gold. This would enable them to

bring this money into the temple and among

themselves purchase. Therefore, there would be an

exchange of commodities and money (trade)

- that's economics. But all this was for the benefit of

the Israelites. This is where the concept of the

contractual document gave rise from. The enemy

didn't have silver and gold, but he had ruling power. So

he used the concept through his own 'commodity',

except it is valueless. He used this 'commodity' to build

up a kingdom here on earth because every king is a

kingdom and the glory (weight/wealth) of the kingdom

is determined by its riches or acquisitions. A kingdom

to compete against God's kingdom. Hence the two

masters are God and mammon. So while people are

chasing after bank numbers he is collecting

commodities.

You cannot accumulate true physical wealth through

holding currency, be it cash or bank balance. You can

accumulate it through holding commodities. But true

[real] wealth is spiritual wealth.

Deuteronomy 8:18, it is I who gives you power to

create wealth. Therefore, chase up the currency of

heaven [spiritual gift], and that'll give you material

acquisitions when you have mastered the conversion

formula [obedience].
