A Note From Jenn
This week the Lord has had His hand on one thing in my heart: fear around money.
It’s wild how something as ordinary as dollars can hold your soul hostage. And it’s even wilder how gently He exposes it.
I’ve been telling God I trust Him, that I believe He called me to build my business, to step out with no Plan B. But He started showing me something I didn’t want to see.
My mouth said trust, but my heart was still acting like a runaway orphan. Afraid to receive. Afraid to enjoy. Afraid that abundance might somehow offend Him.
Your Character Exposes Your Heart
The Briefing
A Poverty Mindset is a slick, quiet lie that hides under “humility” and steals from your calling.
For the last few months, the Lord kept whispering:
Abundance has your name on it.
Not because you’re entitled.
Because you’re entrusted.
Stewardship and Obedience over the last few years were the key that unlocked supernatural blessings in the heavens for my life, but a poverty mindset is what’s been keeping it out of my hands for the last few months.
And here’s the truth I’m finally letting sink in: abundance is not the enemy of holiness. Fear is.
Poverty mindset is not about how much is in your bank account. It’s about how little your heart believes God can do. It’s the reflex that says “keep it small,” “don’t expect too much,” “don’t look greedy,” “don’t grow too fast,” “don’t dream too big.”
But kingdom abundance is not flashy or self-exalting. It’s fruitful. It multiplies what God touches. It carries responsibility, clarity, and purpose. It feeds people. It funds missions. It builds legacies. It breaks generational lack.
This week in the Wait Room, God is stretching my capacity to receive. Not to hoard. To steward. To stop flinching when He wants to bless me. To stop assuming His generosity is somehow unsafe.
TODAY’S FORM CHECK
Deuteronomy 8:18
Remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth.
2 Corinthians 9:8
And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.
These passages remind me that abundance is not a betrayal of God’s character. It is an expression of it.
Reflection Questions for Your Own Wait Room
Where have you quietly believed that money makes you less spiritual?
In what area of your life has fear been disguising itself as “wisdom”?
What has God already given you the ability to create, multiply, or steward?
What would shift if you believed you were safe to receive more?
What does abundance look like through God’s eyes, not culture’s?
A Simple Prayer
Father, break every false belief I have carried about money.
Heal my fear.
Expand my capacity.
Teach me to receive without guilt and steward without fear.
Align my mindset with heaven and teach my heart to trust Your generosity.
In Jesus Name, Amen.___________________________________
Feeling the Pressure Yet? Here’s our encouragement:
When we come to Christ we have a burden that should be carried with the utmost elegance and grace. It’s not a burden to be carried alone but rather with a community of responsible believers.
If you’re locking in, bring someone with you!
Forward this. Share the link. Invite them into the tension—into the place where waiting for God becomes training with Him. We carry light, but we carry well. Let’s build this together.
You’re not broken. You’re not too late. You’re being conditioned by the call.
And pressure? That’s just a setup for power.
