How I Transformed My Life and Raised 200,000 Naira in One Week Using Timeless Principles
I started this year with a phone, but I wasn't fulfilled. Struggling with emotional challenges and lacking proper guidance, I decided to take a drastic step: I let go of my phone and set a strong determination to get a new one within six months. Along the way, I discovered an incredible community that transformed my life. They taught me the basic laws of life, which I applied to raise over 200,000 Naira in less than a week to get a phone. Here’s how the principles of envisioning a clear-cut objective, having a burning desire, praying for assurance, and speaking the word helped me achieve this goal and changed my life.
The Clear-cut Objective
For over three months, I navigated life without a phone, feeling the weight of disconnection in our increasingly digital world. My clear-cut objective was clear: raise 200,000 Naira in less than a week to purchase a phone. This device was not just a luxury but a necessity for my personal and professional growth.
A Burning Desire
My desire to own a phone wasn't just a wish; it was a burning need. Without a phone, I was cut off from job opportunities, unable to stay in touch with loved ones, and hindered in accessing information. This longing drove me to take action, knowing that regaining connectivity would open countless doors.
Pray for Assurance
During this challenging period, I turned to prayer, seeking assurance and guidance. Each prayer strengthened my resolve and provided the confidence that my efforts would bear fruit. This spiritual practice became a cornerstone of my journey, giving me the inner peace and clarity needed to move forward with determination. This is the secret: pray until you get the substance, the assurance.
Speak the Word
In my quest, I was fortunate to be part of a supportive community that taught me invaluable lessons about resilience and resourcefulness. Encouraged by their teachings, I began to speak the word. I reached out to my network, not asking for donations, but offering my skills. God performed miracles, calling “those things which be not as if they were.” I realized the truth and I told myself the truth: "You have the resources within you, and now you know the elements needed in incubation to make your faith usable. Get a clear-cut goal and objective. Have a desire that burns to the boiling point, then pray until you have the substance, the assurance. Then begin to speak the word about which you have been given assurance."
Action and Results
First, I understood the law of savings. Just like being someone who doesn't save any amount of money, I learned to pay myself first. Paying myself first helped me cultivate the habit of saving any amount of money that came into my hands.
Next, I leveraged my talent for investment. I invested in myself at first, with a little savings, not up to 16,000 Naira. The result was overwhelmingly positive, and commissions started to pour in.
Additionally, I didn't stop saving when I started getting profits from my investment. My savings grew.
Within less than a week, the dormant skills I thought wouldn't take me anywhere helped me raise over 200,000 Naira needed for a phone. This achievement was not just about meeting a financial goal; it was about the empowerment and sense of accomplishment that came from applying what I had learned from my community.
