Theme: Enjoying Divine Prosperity-
Topic: The Principles of Financial Prosperity-
If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures [Job 36:11]
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth [3John 2]
God’s will for you and I is prosperity, and that includes financial prosperity. God wants us well and prosperous. He wants us to spend our days in prosperity and our years in pleasures. Anything short of this, is out of His will for us His Children.
So it is important for you to settle it in your heart and know it as you know your name that as a child of God, you cannot be poor. You may be going through some challenges now, it does not matter. The challenges are temporary, they will pass away in know time for your glory to be revealed.
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal [2Cor 4:17-18]
For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich [2Cor 8:9]
You Cannot Be Poor-
Child of God, you cannot be poor! I cannot be poor! I cannot be poor because Jesus become poor that I through His poverty might be rich [2Cor 8:9]!
So poverty is not an option with me. So it is not an option with you too. You just have to accept this truth and let it settle in your heart. You were not born again to be poor again; No, you are born again to be rich in Christ.
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free [John 8:32]
However, everything in life is govern by a principle. So is prosperity. Financial prosperity is govern by certain spiritual prosperity laws. The diligent application of these principles will make you a principal of prosperity.
Financial Prosperity Principles-
1. Principle of Giving and Receiving:
This is a universal financial prosperity principle. Givers never lack. The principle states that the more you give the more you receive.
The same measure that you give it shall be measured to you again. If you don’t give, don’t expect to receive or to be given. So if you want to enjoy financial prosperity, be a giver.
Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again [Luke 6:38]
2. Principle of Seed and Harvest:
This principle holds for so many things including financial prosperity. The principle states that when you sow a seed, you’ll reap a harvest of the kind of seed you sow.
What you sow is what you reap. If you sow money you’ll reap money, if you sow nothing you’ll harvest nothing.
While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease [Gen 8:22]
3. Principle of Obedience:
This principles states that if you obey and serve God you will spend your days in prosperity and your years in pleasure. But if you obey not, I guess you no the opposite.
If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures [Job 36:11]
4. Principle of Faith:
After you have given, sown your seeds and actively engaged in Kingdom service, you need to have faith in God that He will reward you and multiply your seed sown.
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him [Heb 11:6]
5. Principle of Work and Diligence:
This principle states that he that cannot work, let him not eat. Manner cannot fall from heaven again without you doing something to provoke it. You must work so that God can see what He will prosper you through.
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,that bringeth forth his fruit in his season;his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper [Psalm 1:3]
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat [2Thess 3:10]
