Living in the Reality of God's Abundance.
In John chapter 10, verse 10, we see that the devil intends to kill visions, peace, joy, faith, and things that would connect you with God's nature. But Christ came to give us abundant life, and God is abundant in nature.
In Genesis chapter 1, verses 26-28, we see that God has given man the capacity to multiply. He declared fruitfulness and abundance in the seeds. He has structured the system for us to have abundance. There is a sowing season, a harvest season, and principles governing sowing and harvest. Although God placed abundance in the seeds, we must do the sowing.
Those who are of faith are descendants of Abraham and are blessed (Galatians 3:5-6, Galatians 3:29). When we have faith in Christ, who embodies abundance, we carry abundance. We were not just slaves but bondslaves to sin, and Satan was the master, but Christ came and redeemed us.
For us to live in abundance, we need to recognise the source of abundance - Christ. God gave us abundance through the nature of His Son, and we must believe in Him. Matthew 11:28
In 2 Corinthians chapter 9, verses 6 to 7, we see that he who sows sparingly will reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will reap bountifully. As cheerful sowers, you will not lack; trust that your seed will multiply into abundance.
Many of us are in poverty because we do not realise the potential God has deposited within us, just as the wife of the prophet did not recognise the value of the oil in her house. God did not bless us to be mere containers but channels. 2 Kings 4:1-7
When God reveals a secret to us for sustenance, it is wise not to share it immediately but to work on it and see results before sharing it with others.
One principle of wealth is saving some because there will be times when money flows and times when it flies out.
The more we depend on the nature of Jesus, the more we speak by faith. In Genesis chapter 26, Isaac was in a strange land with famine, and God told him not to leave but to stay, and he would prosper. Isaac obeyed God, and he prospered. Even when he dug wells and found them covered by enemies, at a certain point, the well he dug became a spring that was not covered. Locate your well. Even if the enemy closes it, keep digging; eventually, you will find a spring that cannot be covered (Genesis 26: 19 -22).
