Since God opened my eyes to how to create wealth in 2009, I have positioned myself uniquely and helped many to do the same. I #createsmiles through the wealth God helps me to create.
I am grateful to the leaders at ALCC, our spiritual leaders at PTNMA Pastor Festus and Pastor Anthonia Adeyeye for adding a wealth creation master class to the 2024 convention. As Pastor Festus left the altar, I went to greet him and he poured out prayers for me. I felt like I got the best portion of the 2025 convention!
The couple has been a blessing to me and I recommend ALCC, my new home church when you are in Brooklyn.
I am grateful to Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo for accepting to facilitate the class free of charge.
For all who were present this class had a cost. The organisers must have had to take care of the cost of having their mentor, Pastor Matthew in Brooklyn. On my part, I had to fund my trip to Brooklyn and sowed a seed.
I am sharing not only what I heard but what the Holy Spirit laid in my mind as well as information from research I did.
It would have taken me many more days but in the spirit of scaling up and to deliver something excellent to my beloved Christian sister who requested my note, I have gone through extra mile to edit and share.
Note that my note may not follow the sequence because at some point my phone died and I had to take note on my napkin. PMA also rushed through the class just to ensure he maximised our participation ahead of going for an investors meeting.
Let me plug in that he teaches wealth creation and anyone who desires more can research how to join his class. He also has an estate you can invest in.
Here begins my note:
Pastor Ashimolowo has been pastoring for 51 years. In addition to being a pastor he teaches about Generational Wealth Creation and that Covenant Prosperity is a right. God gives according to ability and capacity not popularity. He argues that no one should feel guilt about teaching about wealth.
A leader once asserts that if it is Biblical and Fundamental, teach it! It is a covenant for us to be wealthy.
The following are covenants he mentioned. Click link to read more based on my research:
1. Edenic/Adamic
2. Noahic
3. Abrahamic Genesis 13... as far as your eyes can see
4. Palestinian (Israel)
5. Mosaic
6. New
Everytime God enters covenant with humans, he gives land. That is the real estate!
Lord Jesus, I received property as part of my covenant of marriage. Lord return my landed property or give me new covenant and land in America!
When God enters into covenant with humanity, He prospers the people.
There are more words on finance than there are than any other subject in the Bible. Pastor Matthew is the only one who has come up with a Prayer Bible.
500 - direct or indirect (unsure what this is)
150-200 - home
2215 - finance (Biblical Economics)
37 and 23 parables has to do with economics
Few parable about finance:
1. Sower (Jews look for the codes)
2. Children in a marketplace
Change from the level of children
3. Talent (gold bar federal reserve, half a million dollars)
Aliko Dangote was given half a million dollars by the Dantata family who has produced 4 generations of wealthy folks. This is the only family on Nigeria who can be credited with this achievement.
Christians must rewrite that history
Luke 15 has three stories about finance
Lost silver - dowry
Lost sheep - left capital to look for profit
Lost son - want inheritance; he demanded it because he felt entitled. It appears we are still raising more children like this directly or indirectly; which is why I believe Matthew Ashimolowo put the investment for grandchildren in trust rather than hand it over to them or their parents.
The show after is celebration
Be Thankful
Be Expectant
God wants us to prosper... Above all things be prosperous.
Many quote this verse and Pastor did too but it was Apostle John expressing his hearty prayer for Gaius:
3 John 1:2 NKJV
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers
Ut is important to understand the protocol so you do not extricate self and finance
Christianity is a lifestyle in a kingdom and I am a major player and stakeholder
1. It is a kingdom with protocols
- Pay your tax or tithes (bring what is not yours; Jesus paid tax)
- Do charity or sacrifice (at 17 Solomon slaughtered 1000 bulls instead of 1)
- Release seed to increase (Jesus was released for Triune glory to increase)
2. Give in joy, thanksgiving and reverence
Your dollars stays in ALCC (or your ministry) but the attitude ascends to heaven. The honour goes up and blessings come down
3. Create Generational Wealth
Psalm 112:1-4
Announce to the righteous it shall be well with you
Many complain "I can't get the right job."
News Flash: You cannot create wealth through a job.
JOB = Just Over Broke
You create wealth by solving problems.
Find your passion and SELL SOMETHING (this is why I partnered to publish Selling Skills)
5. Break the poverty mindset
Poverty does not glorify God. Poverty does not bring blessing. You are limited by what you can do if you stay in the well of lack.
Poverty mindset contradicts "God gives us all things richly to enjoy". Hence it is important to consider the following:
● Solve Problems
Elon Musk is valued at over $500b. He solved the problem.
From my research, I discovered that the initial problem Elon Musk solved was helping local businesses establish an online presence with maps and directions, essentially an online version of the Yellow Pages. This was the purpose of his first company, Zip2.
● Correct your mindset; wealth is a blessing not a burden
Cells:
The adult human body contains an estimated 30 to 40 trillion human cells, with one study citing an average of 37.2 trillion. This number varies based on factors like sex, age, and body size.
Follicles:
The human body has approximately 5 million hair follicles. This number can vary slightly depending on factors such as age, gender, and hair color. The head has around 100,000 hair follicles. The remaining 4 million hair follicles are distributed throughout the body, including the eyebrows, eyelashes, arms, legs, and chest.
Cones:
The human eye contains approximately 6 million cone cells. These cones are photoreceptor cells responsible for color vision and are concentrated in the central part of the retina, known as the fovea. The exact number of cones may vary slightly from person to person.
Intestine:
The human body has an average of approximately 20 to 25 feet of intestine, with the small intestine being the longest at about 20 to 22 feet, and the large intestine (colon) being the remaining 5 feet. The small intestine is responsible for most digestion and nutrient absorption, while the large intestine absorbs water and electrolytes.
Above shows us we serve a God of ABUNDANCE.
Pillars for Generational Wealth
1. Embrace an abundance mentality
2. Positive money beliefs
3. Adopt a growth mindset
4. Develop a longterm perspective
5. Take personal responsibility
Your attitude not your aptitude determines your altitude.
3. Insights for Perpetual Wealth
Blessed shall I be in the city
Deuteronomy 28:5-12
Work of my hands - earnings from selling your hours.
In wealth creation, you determine the value of your hours. No one really pays you how much you feel you are worth in employment or on a job.
Classification of businesses
■ Basket - start up business with perforation or risks
■ Storehouse - 50 staff or more.
40% of British wealth is in the hands of Indians. 300 years later only 4% of American wealth is in the hands of African

4. Stop wasting financial resources. Waste cannot lead to wealth... create multiple streams of wealth. Running from job to job is not multiple stream but multiple struggle
Franchise and Scaling is important. This is how companies like McDonald's and KFC grew wealth
My instruction from God at the beginning of this year is "Scale Up!" It May juat be time.
Until you scale, you struggle
Anything you do and you have to be present to make or monitor income, you don't have a business you have self employment.
5. Create wealth that will last in the family
Have your sons and daughters in mind

In the Bible (Genesis 2), a single river flows out of the Garden of Eden and then divides into four distinct rivers: the Pishon, the Gihon, the Tigris (Hiddekel), and the Euphrates. These are the four branches that emerge from the original river, not one river that breaks into four separate entities. PMA categorised them as slow, okay, rapid and breakthrough
I researched to know more:
The Four Rivers of Eden
• Pishon: Described as flowing around the land of Havilah, which is noted for its gold, bdellium, and onyx stone. BREAKTHROUGH
• Gihon: This river flows around the entire land of Cush. RAPID
• Hiddekel (Tigris) : The third river, flowing east of Assyria. OKAY
• Euphrates: The fourth river, a well-known river of the Middle East. SLOW

Real estate is the only real estate
PMA gave each of his children house at their wedding and bought 22 properties for his grandchildren. He promised to educate them to master level. Rather than give it to them and risk it getting into their heads he put into a trust he started. They get the profit.
From the loss I experienced from probate, I already know trusteeship is great and wl buy my property under a trust.

Everytime God blesses anyone, He gives land.
Wall Street was previously the boundary but real estate made it the epicentre. Demographic changes the power of land. Is this true. Read my findings below.
Wall Street was indeed previously the boundary or border of New Amsterdam, the Dutch colony that later became New York City. In 1653, the Dutch built a wall along the northern boundary of their settlement to protect against potential attacks from Native Americans, pirates, and the British. This wall gave Wall Street its name and marked the edge of the colony.
The wall was constructed under the orders of Peter Stuyvesant, the Director-General of New Netherland, and was built using the labor of both enslaved Africans and white colonists. The wall started at the East River shoreline, crossed Broadway, and ended at the Hudson River shoreline. Over time, the wall was torn down, but the street that ran along it retained the name "Wall Street".
So, while Wall Street is now a hub of financial activity, its origins are rooted in the colonial history of New York City as a defensive barrier.
Wall Street was previously the boundary but real estate made it the epicentre. Demographic changes the power of land. Is this true
Wall Street's transformation from the boundary to the epicenter of New York City can indeed be attributed to real estate and demographic changes, which have significantly impacted the power dynamics of land in the area.
Historically, Wall Street was a hub for financial markets and institutions, but its influence expanded as the financial sector grew. Real estate development played a crucial role in this transformation, with the area becoming a hub for high-end offices, residences, and amenities .
Demographic changes, such as the influx of young professionals and affluent residents, have driven gentrification and reshaped neighborhoods surrounding Wall Street. This shift has led to increased demand for housing, upscale amenities, and services, further solidifying the area's status as a hub of economic and social activity.
The value of land in Manhattan, particularly around Wall Street, is among the highest in the world. An acre of central land in New York City is worth approximately 72 times more than an equivalent acre in cities like Atlanta or Pittsburgh. This disparity highlights the significant economic and spatial inequality in the United States, with New York City accounting for around 10% of the total value of America's urban land.²
In summary, the combination of real estate development, demographic changes, and the financial sector's growth has transformed Wall Street into a thriving epicenter of economic activity, underscoring the power of land in shaping urban dynamics.
Remember that real estate is the only estate that is real and can increase in value.
If you are yet to buy land... consider doing so.

7. Make all businesses legal. Don't evade tax but avoid tax... He didn't say how but one way is through welfare or charity programmes, projects and initiatives
8. Consider real estate
57m in 3 years now 150m
33m in 3 years now 97m
This is the only estate that is real.
Bought 900 acres
First 30 for less than 1M... everything for about 500m because some had to be rebought
160 plots left and sold each at 15m
40m per acre which has 6 plots
And resold at 90m
9. Protect your wealth/heritage
10. Build lasting relationship
11. Have a will to state what you WILL WANT. If you don't, America has written one for you. Inheritance tax can take 25% of your inheritance or steal everything as it happened to me.
12 Leave a legacy... I rephrase thus as build a lasting legacy

Wealth Creation
There are three types of people
1. Side walker - one step from disaster
2. Slow lane driver
3. Fast lane drivers
Know that you cannot survive on 401k
1. Side Walker
Primary Income = Job
Money = Salary
Time = Spend today, tomorrow is not promised
Destination = None
2. Slow Lane Driver
Primary Income = Fortune 500
Money = Savings
Time = Trade it for money or material
Destination = Comfortable retirement
Many are in the slow lane driver category
3. Fast lane driver
Primary Income = Business or Investment (Mono or Multiple streams)
Money = Wealth Creation
Time = Value (those in this category are able to put a price tag on their time)
Destination = Create passive wealth
Consider this on how to distribute income, based on whether housing is free, rented or paid off

To take care of 7 years of famine what was done in the Bible
To prepare for the seven years of famine, the biblical account in Genesis describes a plan implemented by Joseph, who advised Pharaoh to store up surplus grain during the preceding seven years of abundant harvest.
