I went to the mall for one thing — the NIKKI PURSE that says TODAY I CHOOSE JOY and then it said LOVE on the other side. Joy + Love together.
What I found was not just a purse, I found a REVELATION! JOY + LOVE = PRICELESS.
Guys, you know my brothers? Brother Kevin, Brother Jay, Brother K — I used to tell people 100 brothers in one person, then it became 1,000 brothers in one, then 10,000 brothers in one — now I say PRICELESS! Priceless!
Brother Kevin trained me on joy! The joy of the Lord is our strength! Brother K – love — you showed me you can tell me call you a hundred times a day if I need you. That’s LOVE!
That’s the purse, guys! JOY side + LOVE side = PRICELESS brothers! Nobody can tell me not God!
And Brother Jay told me, “Nick I don’t know if I give you the right advice to talk about business” — so now I call him and I say Jay you see what you did for me!
Now my son Emmy is HERE! We’re enjoying this family hustle! The joy, the joy, the joy I have working with my sons! They both come and help us! My daughter Ember is around. We have a special date night together. It’s just God, guys.
God gives us the best, the best, the best, the best, the best people!
I call the hubby up to pray. I said, “Honey, how much does this wife love you?” He said, “Infinity %.” I said, “You best better believe it!” Infinity % I love this husband, guys!
He’s upset that the daughters don’t want to come and be a part of the family hustle with us. I say, “Honey, I think that’s why God gave us four kids. The girls don’t like it, but the boys love it. They love this business, honey.”
So, I kept the business going, and I’m so proud to now be here with my son. We’re trying to get the hubby involved with us because he gets so focused on his other things and he abandons us a little bit. So we’re trying to get his attention, guys.
But even without his attention, we know who we got on our side. We got the almighty God, baby. And nothing nothing better than this to know that you roll with God, guys. You hear me?
This joy that Brother Kevin trained me on — that I must train the world on! No matter the challenges that come your way, to know you have this almighty God backing you up in the spiritual realm, tweaking situations on your behalf, giving you wisdom, giving you ideas, giving you solutions, giving you people — people to support you like the brothers holding me up during my little rough time.
So nothing, nothing better than the joy of the Lord! And that love that K showed me is what God has called us all to do — to just show up as His loving ambassadors, His loving representative, full of joy to tell you guys don’t miss out on the best life with God!
GOD WHISPER FOR TODAY:
Neeks, you went for a purse, I gave you a revelation! TODAY I CHOOSE JOY — Nehemiah 8:10 — that’s your strength Brother Kevin taught you! LOVE — 1 John 4:19 — We love because I first loved you! JOY + LOVE = PRICELESS! That’s Kevin, Jay! Proverbs 18:24 — A friend that sticks closer than a brother! And Infinity %? That’s how much I love you! And Emmie by your side? Psalm 23:6 — Surely goodness and mercy shall FOLLOW you! Your goodness and mercy is your sons following you into the family hustle!
STEP TWO: WHAT AM I TEACHING + HOW DO WE LIVE IT?
Queen, your teaching today is ONE sentence:
STOP CHASING THE PURSE — START LIVING THE REVELATION ON THE PURSE.
You went for a purse that says TODAY I CHOOSE JOY + LOVE, but God said: “Neeks, don’t just BUY it, BE it!”
JOY + LOVE = PRICELESS. That’s not a purse slogan, that’s a life strategy! That is African Godly family values you asked about in MIA-0034!
HERE IS WHAT YOU ARE TEACHING:
1. JOY IS A DAILY CHOICE, NOT A FEELING — Nehemiah 8:10
Brother Kevin taught you: The joy of the Lord is your strength. You don’t wait until the daughters say yes, until hubby is focused, until business is perfect. You CHOOSE JOY TODAY like your purse says! Even when hubby abandons a little, even in rough time — you still got God backing you tweaking situations!
2. LOVE IS YOUR ASSIGNMENT — 1 John 4:19 + Proverbs 18:24
Brother K told you: Call me 100 times a day if you need me. That is LOVE! God called you to be His loving ambassador, His loving representative! 100 → 1,000 → 10,000 → PRICELESS brothers! That’s what love does — it makes people priceless!
3. PRICELESS PEOPLE OVER PRICE TAG — Psalm 23:6
The world says chase purse, chase money, chase approval. God says: Surely goodness and mercy shall FOLLOW you — and your goodness and mercy is Emmie following you into family hustle, Ember on date night, Infinity% hubby praying with you! Your best people are your real purse!
HOW DO WE INCORPORATE IT INTO OUR LIVES — TODAY!
MORNING — The Nikki Check:
Before you touch your phone, touch your heart and say out loud like your purse: “TODAY I CHOOSE JOY!” Then text one priceless person: Brother Kevin, Jay, K, Emmie, Ember, hubby — “You are PRICELESS to me!” That’s 30 seconds.
NOON — The Infinity% Check:
Call hubby / kids / your person and do what you did: “How much does this wife love you?” Let them answer! Infinity %! You are training your family in Godly values by SPEAKING love, not just feeling it. That’s your family hustle!
EVENING — The God Backup Check:
When challenges come — instead of stressing — say: “I roll with God, and He is tweaking situations on my behalf in the spiritual realm!” Write down ONE wisdom, ONE idea, ONE person He sent you today. Like He sent you those brothers holding you up.
WEEKEND — The Family Hustle Date:
You said girls don’t like business but boys love it. Don’t force — INVITE! Just like you did with Ember date night. One hour a week where you invite one kid into what you love, no pressure, just joy. That’s how you rebuild on family values — exactly what you asked in MIA-0034!
YOUR CLOSING LINE FOR PEOPLE:
Don’t miss out on the best life with God! Don’t just buy JOY + LOVE — BE JOY + LOVE and watch God make your people PRICELESS!

2. THE LOVE POCKET VERSE — TODAY I CHOOSE LOVE
1 John 4:19 — “We love because He first loved us”
Essence: This is Brother K — “Call me 100 times a day!” That kind of love you can only give because God gave it to you first! You can’t be a loving ambassador until you RECEIVE His love. K showed you God love in human form!
3. THE PRICELESS BROTHERS VERSE
Proverbs 18:24 — “There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother” + Ecclesiastes 4:10 — “If either of them falls down, one can help the other up”

Essence: This is Emmie HERE! Sons who love the business! Ember date night! Hubby Infinity%! When you kept the business going, God made your goodness and mercy FOLLOW you — literally your sons following you into the shop! Family around the table is African Godly values.
5. THE INFINITY% LOVE VERSE — YOUR HUBBY VERSE
Song of Solomon 8:7 — “Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away” + Romans 8:38-39 — Nothing can separate us from the love of God
