Why This Collapse Is a Divine Redistribution

Dear Friend,


I’m briefly coming out of blog retirement to share this important and urgent announcement with you. While I understand that the world is panicking due to the prolonged (and avoidable) government shutdown, and many families are feeling the subsequent pain, we have been presented with another divine opportunity. If you missed the 2020 financial elevation opportunity presented by the COVID pandemic, you now have another chance to step into generational wealth.


To be clear, what we witnessed in 2020 was, among other things, a global wealth transfer. We know that while some people were paralyzed by fear, the other 5.2 million people who became millionaires were positioning themselves. They acquired new skills, entered new markets, and established digital infrastructures that continue to benefit them and their families today. Essentially, in the middle of chaos, they were able to become millionaires because they understood that when the world stops, the playing field resets.


And here we are again.


Like the sons of Issachar, who discerned the times and knew what Israel ought to do (1 Chronicles 12:32), (heavy emphasis on the “knew what Israel ought to do”), we too must recognize what this moment requires. We must hone our ability to read the season, sense the shift, and move accordingly. To put this plainly, those who thrive in times like these are those with the sharpest perception.


With that said, we’re standing on the edge of another massive shift. While the headlines scream scarcity, those who are paying attention can see the patterns repeating because every major societal collapse comes with a hidden invitation to build, innovate, and rise.


So, if you can see beyond the noise, this is your moment to move and to study the movements of money. Friend, God is giving us another opportunity to look where money is going, not where it’s been. To be clear, in the same way that 2020 rewarded the bold, this next season will reward the prepared. And the prepared are the ones who understand that while systems may crumble, opportunities expand in the cracks.


The Pattern of Collapse

Contrary to popular belief, if you study history long enough, you’ll begin to notice that the world doesn’t fall apart. If this is true, then what does it do? It resets. Every few decades, economies recalibrate, power structures reorganize, and the rules of advancement shift. Therefore, collapse is rarely the end; it’s the clearing before the rebuilding. But only those who can discern the season know how to prepare for what’s next, which is why discernment is an asset. In seasons like these, discernment gives you the ability to perceive opportunity when everyone else sees despair.


To be clear, this is your invitation to pivot.


What’s also fascinating is that each generation faces a moment like this that tests this awareness, and this is ours (again). Those who understand the rhythm of collapse and rebirth know that wealth, influence, and innovation tend to gravitate toward those who are readily positioned. With this in mind, consider Isaac in Genesis 26:12. The Bible says that “Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the Lord blessed him.” We see that he sowed during a famine, which was the same famine that caused others to flee. Notably, his discernment and obedience led to a supernatural yield that same year. In essence, Isaac’s story reminds us that famine reveals favor because prosperity doesn’t always wait for perfect conditions; instead, it often emerges in contradiction to them.


Heaven is once again calling for redistribution.


What 2020 Taught Us About Wealth Creation

To me, the 2020 pandemic exposed the illusion of stability (and 2025 is doing the same). It seemed like overnight, entire industries crumbled while new ones were born. We saw businesses close while digital platforms experienced explosive growth. Yes, many jobs were lost, but the discerning monetized their skills and built income streams that didn’t depend on permission or proximity.


How did they do this? They built systems.

(I even managed to pay off $10k of consumer debt in 8 months, save $10k in 2021, and an additional $20k in 2022 through my systems.)


And you were there. We all witnessed one of the greatest wealth transfers in modern history, but most people missed it because they were waiting for things to “go back to normal.” But there is no normal to return to after a global reset.


So what really set the ones who advanced apart from others? They understood that a crisis creates room for creativity. That’s it.


We also see this principle all throughout Scripture. When Joseph interpreted Pharaoh’s dream in Genesis 41, he prophesied famine and built a plan. The Bible tells us that he stored grain during years of plenty so that Egypt would become the central economy of the ancient world when scarcity arrived. To put this another way, Joseph’s wisdom and strategic planning turned a global crisis into currency and sovereignty.


The same is true in Jesus’ Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25). We see the Master rewarding the servants who multiplied what they were given and condemning the one who buried his resources out of fear. Ultimately, the lesson is timeless: God blesses movement, and multiplication is always the expectation of stewardship.


And that is what 2020 revealed.


I must drive this point home because the people who thrived then didn’t necessarily have more faith (or might not have even been Believers). Yet, they had foresight. Clearly, they discerned the pattern, acted on it, and built in real time while others waited and doom scrolled. Looking back, we know that they also learned to monetize knowledge, turn hobbies into brands, content into currency, and community into capital. Indeed, they mastered the art of digital positioning while others were mastering survival masquerading as cautious living. Now, as we stand on the edge of another disruption, those same principles still apply and perhaps even more urgently.


Because the economy is shifting again.


We see that AI is rewriting job descriptions, markets are tightening, and government systems are exposing their fragility. But within that volatility lies the same divine pattern, which is the chance to build while others freeze.


So, if you missed the last transfer, don’t miss this one. This is the time to study, build, invest, and create because the world restructuring is presenting you with a rare opportunity to find yourself ahead of the curve, just like the sons of Issachar.


The Opportunity Hidden in Plain Sight

To restate the point, every collapse conceals a corridor of opportunity, but most people are too busy surviving to notice it. You cannot trust the present feeling of instability because it is a smoke screen. We are witnessing another unveiling. Just look at how the markets are restructuring and how the systems are being tested. While I’m not asking you to agree, I am asking you to pay attention.


Study the terrain.

Watch where the money is moving.

Learn what new industries are rising.

Build in the cracks.


Because once the dust settles, the opportunities visible to you now will no longer be available at this price, this access, or this speed. What you decide to do in this season will echo for decades in your family line.


You know this.


And we’ve seen this time and time again that when God initiates a transfer, He moves money and management. Why? Because wealth constantly changes hands among those who are prepared to handle responsibility, not just receive resources. This is why I always say that discernment alone isn’t enough.


You must respond with structure, regulation, and formation. I’m talking about strategy.


As I prepare to wrap up, the question is no longer if the transfer is happening, but if you will be trusted with it this time. Yes, the systems of this world are shaking, but Heaven is clearly not in crisis because divine strategy will continue to be released to those who are listening and can hear the opportunity.


It’s been time to position yourself.

It’s been time to build assets that outlive algorithms.

It’s been time to establish systems that produce while you rest.

It’s been time to create frameworks that future generations can stand on.


With that said, I hope you’ve prepared your storehouses like Joseph. Sown (whatever that means to you) like Isaac. Discerned like the sons of Issachar. Because God is asking us if these dry bones can live, and I hope you’ll confidently respond: “Yes, Lord. They can, and they will.”


Don’t miss the divine redistribution this time around because whichever way this goes for you, you won’t escape your inheritance, which is rebuilding.

P.S. I know you haven't heard from me in a while but I'm well. Thank you to everyone who did a wellness check; I just needed time to focus on myself and recover. While I'm not sure when (or if) I'll be returning to YouTube, this is a great time to review The Kingdom playlists.


Side note: I just got back from Lisbon, Portugal (see image below).

Hello Dr. Bri, I am so happy to hear from you and glad to know you are doing well. Thank you so much for this charge. There is no such thing as "normal" any more. Our world changed forever in 2020 and we should always be ready to learn and re-invent ourselves as we go along.
