Most times when I am working, I listen to something that would feed my body and soul. I have listened to Seven Spheres of wealth from the Kingdom perspective by the late Dr Myles Munroe many times and always seem to hear something I missed previously. When people talk about wealth, they normally talk about money, but Dr Myles Munroe has a different view on that.
He shared the seven spheres of wealth and they are:
Spiritual Wealth
Soulical Wealth
Physical Wealth
Social Wealth
Influence Wealth
Community Wealth
Generational Wealth
Spiritual Wealth – This sphere of wealth is what the bible calls wealth towards God. If your spiritual wealth is not in order, you can have millions in the bank and still be poor. I have been more intentional about my spiritual wealth in the last decade and I am experiencing peace and joy like never before.
Mark 8:26 said, “What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?

Soulical Wealth -It means intellectual and emotional development. We must focus on developing ourselves emotionally and intellectually. God gave us a brain. He expects us to develop it. God gives us a brain with nothing in it, just like computer hardware and it is up to us to decide what we download. We have to be careful what we download because viruses can invade our minds, like our computers. Sometimes, we need to take time to delete from our hard drives and unlearn things that are not adding value to us. Out of the seven spheres of wealth, soulical wealth touches the mind and emotions. Our souls consist of will, mind and emotions. It is very important to become wealthy in our souls! It is not beneficial to have a billion dollars in the bank and not have the intelligence to invest it, the knowledge to multiply, and the wisdom to invest. That is why Soloman was smart when God asked him what he wanted. He never asked God for Money but soulical wealth.He asked for knowledge, wisdom and understanding.

Blessed are those who find wisdom. That means that our health depends on our mental state and prosperity depends on our soulical development. Wealth is in an idea and it has to be first in the mind. We must be wealthy in our souls. We should become wealthy when we read, learn and study good books.

The book of Proverbs is so profound and I must share some of my favourite verses below.

13 Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding,
14 for she is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.
16 Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.
1seven Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peaceful.
18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her; those who hold her fast will be blessed.
19 By wisdom the LORD laid the earth’s foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place;
20 By his knowledge the watery depths were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew.
21 My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion;
22 they will be life for you, an ornament to grace your neck.
23 Then you will go on your way in safety, and your foot will not stumble.
those who gain understanding,

Physical Wealth –
Dr Munroe referenced Steve Jobs, one of the Richest men in the world who founded Apple with a partner. Even though he was worth billions of dollars that could not save him from pancreatic cancer. Steve Jobs has material wealth but not spiritual wealth. No matter how much you know and how talented and gifted you are, if your body breaks down, we are poor. That is why the Apostle John Said,”I will above all you prosper and be in health”. We must be aware of what we eat and drink, we must exercise, avoid consuming drugs, not abuse our body, etc . I am still struggling with my exercise routine, but I try to do the things for my body to be healthy.When Dr Monroe referred to Steve Jobs I remember I read years ago that claimed what his final words were.

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is the epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, my wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to. At this moment, lying on my bed and recalling my life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in have paled and become meaningless in the face of my death.”

You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you, but you cannot have someone bear your sickness for you. Material things lost can be found or replaced. But there is one thing that can never be found when it’s lost—Life. Whichever stage in life you’re in right now, with time, you will face the day when the curtain falls.

Treasure love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well and cherish others. As we grow older and hopefully wiser, we realize that a $3,000 or a $30 watch both tell the same time. You will realize that your true inner happiness does not come from the material things of this world. Whether you fly first class or economy, if the plane goes down—you go down with it.

Therefore, I hope you realise that when you have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and sisters, who you chat with, laugh with, talk with, sing with, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven and earth, that is true happiness. Don’t educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be happy. So when they grow up, they will know the value of things and not the price.

Eat your food as your medicine. Otherwise, you have to eat medicine as your food.

The one who loves you will never leave you for another because, even if there are 100 reasons to give up, he or she will find a reason to hold on. There is a big difference between a human being and being human. Only a few really understand it. You are loved when you are born. You will be loved when you die. In between, you have to manage.

The six best doctors in the world are sunlight, rest, exercise, diet, self-confidence, and friends. Maintain them in all stages and enjoy a healthy life.”

Dr Myles Monroe has left a great legacy that is impacting lives from beyond the grave and trusting this content touched someone in a special way. We will be discussing Influence of Wealth, Community Wealth,Generational Wealth as we continue to celebrate this beautiful journey called life BEYOND THE RUNWAY.
