Strategies
1. Wholesale Import - Retail Export
- Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and from Kue. The king’s merchants purchased them [in large numbers] from Kue at a price. And they imported chariots from Egypt for 600 shekels of silver apiece, and horses for 150 apiece; and in the same way they exported horses to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Arameans (Syrians). 2 Chronicles 1:16-17 AMP
2. Real Estate - Farming
- She considers a field before she buys or accepts it [expanding her business prudently]; With her profits she plants fruitful vines in her vineyard. Proverbs 31:16 AMP
Others Prosper because of you
Examples
- Laban because of Jacob: But Laban said to him, “If I have found favor in your sight, stay with me; for I have learned [from the omens in divination and by experience] that the LORD has blessed me because of you.” Genesis 30:27 AMP
- Potiphar because of Joseph: It happened that from the time that he made Joseph overseer in his house and [put him in charge] over all that he owned, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house because of Joseph; so the LORD’S blessing was on everything that Potiphar owned, in the house and in the field. Genesis 39:5 AMP
How long will you serve others?
- Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the desert, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. Exodus 3:1 NKJV
At this point in time, Moses was about 80 years old (Exodus 7:7). The one time to-be Pharoah of Egypt was still tending his father-in-law’s sheep after spending 40 years with him!
Have something of your own
- For you had little before I came and it has increased and multiplied abundantly, and the LORD has favored you with blessings wherever I turned. But now, when shall I provide for my own household?” Genesis 30:30 AMP
