It comes from seeking God first, trusting in His promises, and living according to His principles. Below are key biblical steps to cultivate a life of Godly abundance:

Seek God First

Godly abundance starts with putting God at the center of our lives. When we prioritize Him, everything else falls into place.

Be a Good Steward of God’s Resources

God entrusts us with time, money, and talents to manage wisely for His glory.
