The speaker discusses the evolution of work and money throughout history, from the agrarian age to the technological and information age. They emphasize the importance of moving from hard work to smart work, using brain power instead of muscle power. They also mention the shift towards a cashless society and the need for individuals to utilize their energy and skills to create opportunities for themselves. The speaker encourages listeners to understand that they are the source of their own wealth and that money is not limited to physical currency. Every family has their chairs represented in this hall, in this auditorium, and I believe and I declare that this month, God will give you your portion. God will give you your portion, and God will give you a seat at the table in the name of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah, hallelujah. So welcome to Success Business and Leadership School. If you don't have your manual, you need to get the manual. We're already going deeper now. You can see we're going deeper into this thing, so if you don't have the manual, you're just going to lose your love. Many of these things we're sharing, there are so many stuff in the manual that I cannot even touch. So you need to make sure that you get the Spirit of the Living God speak to us again with clarity, with insight, with understanding. Let there be divine illumination. In Jesus' mighty name we pray, amen and amen. So last week we went on to look at, we should be able to wrap up module two. We looked at the evolution that took place. So we started from the agrarian age, and then people were going after water. We started from the Untagadra caveman era, going after what was underground, energy and skill. Then we went to the agrarian age, going after what the ground can produce, energy and skill to hunt was replaced by energy and skill to farm. And then the trade by butter came out of that. Then we went to the third level of evolution, which is the industrial age, that brought forth the currency and derivatives and all the stuff. At this point they are going after what was underground. And then as a result of the limitation of currencies, because currency is geographical, but money is universal. As a result of that limitation of currency, we now realize that they needed to go into the next level of evolution. And that is what brought us into what is called the technological and information age. The technological and information age, and that's the fourth level. So you have heard of the fourth industrial revolution, and that's where we are right now. We are still in the technological and information age, where the technological and information era. And the fifth level is already coming now. The world of AI, robotics, animation, and all kinds. So another dimension is coming, where you are going to see that what you think you know, a lot of things are going to challenge this as we continue to progress. But let's just stay with the fourth now. So you need to get the book, The Fourth Industrial Revolution. It will go a long way in helping you. Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. So paper currency is geographical, while money is universal. And now the world has become a global village, and the internet is really square. So that limitation that I was speaking about last week Sunday, exchange rate differentials. You carry your money. You think you have big money. You get to another country. They collect 1.3 million from you, and they give you $1,000. They collect 1.7 million from you, and they give you 1,000 pounds. And they're like, ah, I'll give you 1,000. I'll give you 1.3. No, it's exchange rate. Then the size. So for instance now, if you have $100, just one paper like this, $100, that is big money. If you have $1,000, big money. If you have $10,000, $10,000 is just one bundle like this one, $10,000, one bundle. And that's 13.5 million. Because of that weight and size issue, you bring $10,000, they give you 13,000. God now help you, they give you 200. You now carry three bags, and you are going like that. And then security problem. So people now began to talk about the need to move into another level of evolution. And that's what brought us to what we call the cashless policy and electronic money. Somebody say e-money. Yes. That's what brings us to e-money, electronic money. So now you have cards. You do transfers. And because of this, you don't forget that we have done paper. Now we are even moving away from paper. So you go to some countries now. If you go to the U.S., for instance, or U.K. Go into a store in the U.S. Bring out $1,000 cash. You see people will be looking at you. Because many of them don't have that much cash. Why? Because they are not in a cash society. They are in a cashless society. So most people, they only have a few notes in their purse. They don't carry cash like that. They have a cash clip. But we know Niger. You see, carry cash. So many of them don't. So by the time you bring $1,000, they will bring it out. They will put it under the radar to be sure it's genuine. They will be marking it. They don't know. I'm telling you, go to some stores in the U.K. Bring out 50 pounds. They will be checking whether it's real money. Some of them have not seen 50 pounds before. And they are in the U.K. Why? Because they don't need the cash. They are in a cashless society. And that's the realm we are going into right now. But don't forget that we have now forgotten energy and skill. That's how everybody forgot. That the energy and skill is still what we are supposed to be operating in. But now, people have energy. They have skill. They say, I don't have a job. Are you seeing the foolishness now? I don't have a job. But what are you doing with your energy? You don't have a job. What are you doing with your skill? Who should provide the job for you? So you see able-bodied men, able-bodied women with energy. They are not ready to work. They are waiting for somebody to just come and help them. They are looking for money. When you have your energy and your skill. And right now, many of the things that people have done is no more relevant. Because the energy and the skill you need for agric or for hunting is different from what you need for industrial revolution. The energy and the skill that you need for technology is different from the one you need for industry. So right now, we have now moved from hard work to smart work. So it's no more muscle power. It's now brain power. Because during the Untergadra stage, what were they doing? They were going after what was on the ground. During the Agrarian stage, what were they doing? They were going after what the ground was producing. During the Industrial Age, what were they doing? They were going after what was under the ground. Now, what are we going after? We are going after what is in the mind of man. We are no more going after what is in the minds. But what is in the mind. So it's no more muscle. It's now brain. It's no more hard work alone. It's now smart work. Now, think about it. Who are the richest people in the world today? The richest people in the world today are not producing anything. Hello? They are using their brain. They are not producing anything. They are using their brain, coming up with product, coming up with services, coming up with inventions, coming up with ideas, coming up with solutions. And because they are bringing solutions to solve a lot of problems, they are offering value. They are the richest people today. So I repeat again. Your currency is not money. Your credit card is not money. Your bank card, ATM card is not money. Your checkbook is not money. So if all these things are not money, what then is money? What then is money? Because it's about what is inside you right now. So you are the mobile money. Where you move, money moves. And once you understand this, it will go a long way in helping you. I'm telling you. When I started traveling, my first trip out of Nigeria was in 1992. So I went to Ghana. And then I came back. And then the first time I traveled out of Africa, I went to London in 1997. Seven was my first trip. And I went to London. And when I got to London, opportunities came as a result of that trip. I met some people. Then I went back again. I started going to London like at the point I was going to London every quarter. At the point I was going like six times a year. Because I started doing business. That was when, you know, Nollywood started. I was selling books. So people would order for books. And then, oh, bring, there was one bishop. I want Amagabu. There was one guy. That type. Dangerous prayers. You know, different sales. We're selling. Then they would say, oh, bring the music. Oliver the cuckoo. Orlando brother. Oriental brother. Orlando. All kinds. People would order. I would send people to a lab. I would buy video. In those days, they used to release it every Monday. They would release different Nollywoods. So I would pack, go to London. So I was selling Christian Matilda. Supplying bookshop. Supplying everybody. But guess what? When I go, the first time I went with load, I went with like 16 bags with trucks to the airports. I didn't understand export. I didn't understand anything. I just reached the airport. The BG charged me money. Charged me. Then I go to London. There is a door. You have nothing to declare and something to declare. Me, I just didn't work. I passed nothing. I didn't get anything to declare. That's when, because I've been going without load. Now, as I was going, they said, excuse me, sir. Excuse me, sir. Come this way, please. Excuse me, sir. Come this way, please. I said, I'll kill you today. I got there. And I got there. They started checking everything. What? I said, ah, the people. You know, honesty. No. I said, pastor, you can't say no. I'm here to say that they are my customer. They order for his books. They said, oh, no, you can't do that. No, you need to pay duty for this one. The books are duty free. This one, you pay duty. I said, hey. That's what I started learning. But guess what? As I was doing that, 98, 99, 2000, 2001, 2002, I think I started the business around 2003. But between that 1998 and 2000, that five-year window, I was developing myself. I was evolving. I was developing myself. I was moving from that hard work. When you see me in London in those days, all the people in London. I would never have seen my friends today. But when you see me in London, I had to leave. I had to occur that I would be moving from one bus to another, one train to the other. Carrying up and down. Going to supply different people. Doing business. I'm just. Ahem. Oh, my God. But guess what? I was developing myself. Developing myself. Developing myself. Developing myself. By 2002, 2003, I realized this shift that I'm talking to you right now. About moving from muscle to brain. From hard work to smart work. In 2003, I was invited to the UK to speak at an event. They called me. They wanted me to come and speak. It was supposed to be a weekend executive meeting. So I was just speak for one day, two sessions. Guess what? They paid for my business class tickets. They paid for my hotel. And I didn't charge them money, but they said 10,000 pounds is what they are going to pay. 2003. So now, I carry a suit bag with suits and a small bag with books. And I was coming. Now, listen. When I got there, something to declare, nothing to declare. I went through nothing to declare. Nobody stopped me. And as I was going, the only guy who said, can you notice what just happened now? I said, what? He said, when you came with 16 bags, they stopped you. You spent hours. You went round different shops, different offices. But all you made was 3,000. Now, they are paying your ticket. They are paying your hotel. You are not doing anything. You just come, talk, and they give you 10,000. He said, now, you have become a mobile money. Woo! I said, hey! That's when I said, this at night, we will go get her. We will start fasting and praying. We will start reading. Let me study. Let me study so that I will become an authority. I was not a common sense guru then. But the guru of today was being made. It's better to focus on this knowledge industry and just sit down there instead of all this glick. So, listen to me, people. Money is not what you think it is. So, all this evolution is what has brought us to where people are now looking for paper. They have energy. They are not using it. They have skill. They are not using it. They have trade by battle. They have things they can exchange for what they need. They are not exchanging it. And yet, they have. Blame the people looking for money. So, what then is money? So, that brings me to module three. So, let's go to section three. The real definition of money. The real definition of money. And that's what I want to focus on majorly today. The real definition of money. So, generally, money is defined as a legal tender. Or, as one dictionary states, a current medium of exchange. So, generally, money is defined as a legal tender. So, when you say money, it's just a legal tender. So, whatever any geographical region has agreed to be a legal tender. I told you two weeks ago that if you go to the Central Bank, the Money Museum at the Central Bank Headquarter in Abuja, you're going to see all the things that have been used as legal tender in Nigeria. You're going to see copper coins, cowrie, shillings. You're going to see all those things. So, money is defined as what? A legal tender. Or, as one dictionary states, a current medium of exchange. So, money is a current medium of exchange. Current means it can change. So, currently, we can have a medium of exchange. But that medium of exchange can change again. Because it is currency. The reason why we call it currency is it has to be correct. The reason why we call it currency is because it flows. It's either flowing to you, flowing away from you, or flowing on. So, it's a medium of exchange. So, what then is money? Money is any medium of exchange. Money is any medium of exchange. So, let's look at this. And then, money is a reward for solving a problem. Money is a reward for solving a problem. So, when you solve a small problem, you make small money. When you solve a medium problem, you make medium money. When you solve a big problem, you make big money. When you solve a national problem, you make national money. When you solve a global problem, you make global money. Look at what happened a few years ago in COVID. A lot of people made money in COVID because they were solving problems. That people did not know how to solve. People made money from vaccines. Even though it was in trial. And everybody with booster shots, clinical shots. So, sit down and stop complaining. If you are looking for money, any medium of exchange, that's money. Any medium of exchange. So, let's look at this. So, money is any medium of exchange. So, whatever you have, that you can exchange for what you need, that's money. So, get it now. Whatever you have, that you can exchange for what you need, that is money. So, if I have knowledge, and I can exchange knowledge for money, knowledge is money. If I have skill, and I can exchange skill for money, skill is money. If I have energy, and I can exchange my energy for money, the energy is the money. So, once you have that understanding, you will know money there. I don't have money. There is nobody that doesn't have money. I'm not a poor man. Because I know I have something that I can exchange for what I need. And once you understand that money is any medium of exchange. So, anything you can exchange for what you need, that thing that you can exchange is money. So, money is actually fluid. So, money is not currency because currency is just within a geographical region. So, whenever you focus on solving problems, money becomes the result. So, money is any medium of exchange. And then about two, money is a reward for problems that you solve. So, repeat after me everyone. Money is any medium of exchange. I can't hear you say money is any medium of exchange. So, say it louder. Whatever I have that I can exchange for what I need is money. They are repeating number two. Money is a reward for solving a problem. If I need money, I solve problem. When I solve problem, money flows. And that's it. Once you get this. So, when you see some of us and you think that he has all the money, it's because we have the understanding. Whenever we need money, we just go and look for problem to solve that can produce the money. So, anything you have that you can exchange for what you need is money. So, when you look at the creator, like I told you a few weeks ago, when God created the heavens and the earth, how much did he spend? So, the creator used the word. The creator used faith to create the world. So, the word of God is money. Faith is money. Faith is the currency of the kingdom of God. So, the same way you can use physical currency to buy things, you can use your faith to get things. You can use your faith to produce results. The creator has also given us all we need to create wealth, but we need to know how to carry out the exchange from one realm, spiritual, to another realm. So, God has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places, but you don't live in heaven. So, heavenly places is where the blessings are, earthly places is where you need it. So, how do you transfer heavenly blessings to earthly reality? That is what you need to understand how to do that exchange. So, let's look at what I call the 818 code. The 818 code. The 818 code. So, let's look at Deuteronomy 8.18. But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God, for it is he that giveth thee wealth power to get wealth. So, God does not give wealth to anybody. He gives you the power to get the wealth. God does not give wealth to anybody. He gives you power to get wealth. Thou shalt remember the Lord thy God, for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant, which he swore unto thy fathers, as it is this day. Look at the message. You say, well, think again. Remember that God your God gave you the strength to produce all this wealth, so as to confirm the covenant that he promised to your ancestors, as it is today. So, God gave you the strength to produce all this wealth. Power to get wealth. Strength to produce wealth. Look at the Amplified. But thou shalt earnestly remember the Lord thy God, for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant, which he swore unto thy fathers, as it is this day. New Living Translation. Remember the Lord thy God is the one who gives you power to be successful. In order to fulfill the covenant he confirmed to your ancestors with the oath. He gives you power to be successful. So, always remember the Living Bible. Always remember that it is the Lord your God who gives you power to become rich. Power to become rich. And he does it to fulfill his promise to your ancestors also. God does not give wealth to anybody. So, every time you are praying, Oh Lord, give me money. Oh Lord, give me money. God cannot answer that prayer, because they don't spend money in heaven. God cannot answer that prayer, because they don't spend money in heaven. The security printing and minting corporation is not in heaven. So, they don't spend money in heaven. So, if you are a child of God and you are praying for God to give you money, wrong prayer. If you are a child of God, you are praying for God to bless you, wrong prayer. Oh Lord, bless me. Oh Lord, bless me. Oh Lord, bless me. That's not the prayer. You are already blessed. You are already blessed. Use the blessing. He says, He has given us power so God does not give wealth to anybody. But He gives you the power to get the wealth. So, it is God's responsibility to give you the power. It is your responsibility to use the power. Repeat after me. It is God's responsibility to give me the power. It is my responsibility to use the power. Repeat it again. It is God's responsibility to give me the power. It is my responsibility to use the power. When God gives me the power to get wealth and I refuse to use the power, I will be a powerful poor man, I will be a powerful poor woman. Are you seeing it now? So, when you have the power and you are not using the power, God has done His own power. He says, I give you power to get wealth. I give you power to become worthy. I give you power to become rich. God does not give you riches. He gives you the power. The power is the blessing, not the blessing of the Lord. It makes you rich and you have no sorrow with it. So, the blessing is the empowerment that God has given to you and then when you now use that power, it makes you rich. Riches are a result of the blessing. Lift up your hands and declare, I am blessed. I can't say, I am blessed. If I lay your hands upon your head and declare, I am blessed. Shout it out, I am blessed. Yes, you are. You are blessed. So, there is a blessing upon your life. It is the empowerment of God and you now need to use it to produce what you need. So, when you don't use the power, you are not going to see the result of the power. You need to get my book, Parts Way to Wealth. I explained all this. Even in School of Money, I did another explanation on understanding the power to get wealth so that you understand. When God says, I have given you the power to get wealth, it does not mean to receive it, take it. No. That is one dimension. Power to get wealth is beyond falling under the anointing. No. So, you need to understand the power that God has given to you so that you can use the power. So, let me help you understand this. Ah, ok. If you have a brother or family member in London and you phone them to send you money, what will they send to you? Pounds. Why? Because that is what they spend in London. If you have a brother or family member in America and you tell them to send you money, what will they send you? Dollars. Why? That is what they spend in America. Do we spend pounds in Nigeria? No. Do we spend dollars in Nigeria? No. So, what do you do with the pounds or the dollars in order for it to be useful to you here? What do you do? You carry the pounds and you exchange it. Somebody say exchange. So, what is money? Enemy medium of exchange. You exchange the pounds for Naira and you can now use the Naira. Ok. Now, when you call your brother in America and he sends you dollars, what do you do? You carry the dollars, you exchange it for Naira so that you can use it here. So, what do you do with the pounds? You exchange it for Naira. What do you do? Ayagora, boshege, dede, boshata. What do you do with the dollars? You exchange it for Naira so that you can use it here. So, you call your brother in London. He sends you pounds. You call your brother in America. He sends you dollars. When you call God in heaven, what will God give you? Power to get wealth. Are you seeing it now? God will not give you pounds. He will not give you dollars. He will not give you that. He will give you power. Now, what do you do with the power? You go to the road in exchange of God. And then you exchange the power for what you need. That is why money is whatever you have that you can exchange for. So, money is any medium of exchange. So, when you talk to God, Lord, I need money. And he gives you favor. That favor flows. It answers your need. Somebody now gives you the car. Instead of you buying the car. When you pray to God, Lord, Lord, I thank you. I give you all the glory. Lord, I need a house. Thank you, Lord. I need a house. You say you need a house. God gives you a skill. You use the skill. And the skill produces money. You get the house. So, any medium of exchange. And then you now know that when God gives you power, you use the power. So, what is the power to get wealth? That is, I don't know if it is in this voodoo. Or whether it is in the second man. This is 100 level. This is master class I did now. Check your manner. It is 100 level. There is 200 level. To let you know the realms. But just get the book. Get the material. I have to stop here. And then we will pick it up next week. So, please listen and listen well. Yaguraba Shadiagabaya. Zemurugudia Ndekebe'eha. Every Wednesday this month. It is going to be a massive open house talk show. We are having talk shows. We are having open house discussion. Miracle and power. So, don't miss midweek service this month. I am telling you. You will be amazed at what God will bring in the house.
