READ: Genesis 14:8-24

“And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, …That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, LEST THOU SHOULDEST SAY, I HAVE MADE ABRAM RICH:” – Genesis 14:22-23

If you are wise as a serpent you will live your life not expecting money, gifts, grants, donations or even loans. Abraham did not need anybody to make him rich. In fact, he did not want anybody to think that they had made him rich.

It is children who always expect that Mummy and Daddy will give them something to solve their problems. When someone is incapable of independent living, he often expects people to give him something. Many people look to America and England, expecting to receive something. The fact that you even think that Americans and Europeans will come to your aid shows that you are incapable of an independent life.

You must not expect that any outsider will make you rich. Why do you want somebody to give you something? Why are you always looking, hoping and expecting a gift, a loan or a handout? Bad leaders fool the masses with their talk about acquiring loans. But those who can see through the smoke and the fog can tell that there is actually no need for a loan. There is simply a need to cut out waste, corruption and poor management of resources.

You must lead your life in a way that will make you independent of an external donor. Hopelessly incapable leaders are always happy to go for donor conferences to hear what grants and gifts will be dished out to them. Amazingly, some of these leaders fall asleep at these donor meetings because they are simply out of their depth when it comes to leadership.
