Through Prosperity Shall You be spread abroad

Hi friends,

It is an aberration from the written word of God that a genuine child of God should live and die in abject poverty. More so is the doctrine of it being difficult for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Poverty in its real sense is inability to be able to meet daily needs or inability to make supplies for ones needs.  It does not in any way connote holiness or prosperity neither does it depict right standing with God.

Our heavenly father said in the book of Zachariah 1:17,

 

Cry yet saying ,thus saith the Lord of hosts; my cities through

prosperity shall yet   be spread abroad; and the Lord shall

yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem

 

 The issue of prosperity for the heaven minded believer has been a very controversial issue for so many decades until of recent. Prosperity in its true and biblical sense does not only connote material affluence but even in the soul.

By implication the issue of prosperity starts and ends in the mind. Little wonder the Bible buttresses this by saying that as a man thinks in his heart so is he. If a man is to be prosperous at all, the first thing that needs to change is his thought.

The desire of God for you and I, my dear fellow pilgrim, is that we proper even as our dear souls prosper. That is the greatest desire of God for us as we journey on this kingdom high way.

True and godly prosperity comes to the believer in either of the following ways:

i.                    Through inheritance

ii.                  Through inherent talent or spiritual giftings

iii.                Through ideas that are divinely inspired

iv.               Through godly and goodly associations

v.                 Through hard work and working wisely

 

True riches and prosperity will empower you here on earth to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ in every nook and crannies of the earth. It will make you speak and people will have no choice but to listen.

 

True and heavenly given prosperity will make you be a blessing to everyone you encounter on this side of eternity. You can bring smiles to weeping faces, food to the hungry, hope to the hopeless and above all life to a dying world through divine prosperity.

 

Jesus read a scripture from Isaiah 61 during his earthly ministry as he wanted to define His purpose and ministry. He said the spirit of the Lord was upon Him because He has anointed Him. Anointed Him for What?

 

To comfort those who mourn in Zion, to proclaim liberty to the captives, to give the oil of gladness for the spirit of heaviness, to bring men out of captivity, to preach the good news to the meek and proclaim acceptable year of the Lord.

In addition to any and all of the above list of how true prosperity comes to the believer is the place of divine watering which I also call heavenly blessings. When God Almighty blesses a man no power on earth can hinder the individual’s prosperity.

Stay truly blessed, richly and divinely prospered on this Kingdom highway as we await the Lord’s second coming.
