Abundance and ProsperityAbundance and prosperity are the results of putting to work principles and laws. When these principles and laws are followed they produce predictable results. When you plant seeds the predictable results would be to expect a harvest. The law of seed time and harvest is a law of multiplication of what ever is sown. It's a natural law that God put in place. The lack of knowledge about abundance and prosperity can cause you harm. Economic prosperity or lack there of can effect your health and wellness in mind, body, and spirit. Financial stress effects your mind and emotions including fear and worry. Stress unchecked can effect physical health. Some blame God because of lack which in turn will affect their spiritual wellness as well. Gods Word teaches how to produce abundance and prosperity. As a child of God you have promises. Based on the authority of the Word of God you can find out what God's will is for you and how scriptures can walk you through lack into more than enough. Over Come LackGod demonstrates the principle as Jesus teaches His disciples how to over come lack. Luke 9:2-3“ He(Jesus) sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. And He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece.” NKJVThe disciples went on a journey and took with then no provisions. What happened to them? Luke 22:35 And He (Jesus) said to them, "When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?" So they said, "Nothing." NKJV The disciples were put in a position by Jesus where they had to rely on God alone. They had to trust God to take care of every need they had and they watched as God provided for them. They learned a valuable lesson; Wholeheartedly lean on God alone and you will lack nothing. All your needs will be satisfied. God has given to each one of us the measure of faith. It's inside of you even now. Exercise it and it will grow. But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Heb 11:5 NKJV. Relying on God alone is a monumental principle of the Kingdom of God. It can be applied to every area of your life. It is the first thing that must be understood for success. When you learn to rely on Jesus to produce fruit in your life - you will flourish. Faith is the currency of the Kingdom of God. It is how you receive everything from God. God is where your ideas will come from. He will guide you as you develop those ideas into ways of abundance and prosperity. Be open to new ideas as you trust God to guide you. The disciples were willing to trust Jesus and do as He said - they took no provisions with them. As they trusted God they realize that all you need is God for out of God flows all your supply. They had good success as they went about doing the Fathers will - even the devils were subject to them. The principles of the kingdom of God may not make sense to the natural mind. But God is able to change bad situations into something very good. Can a Little Make a Lot?When you have so little to start with how can little add up tomore than enough? In all four Gospels a miracle is recorded when Jesus asked the Father to bless five barley loaves and two small fish. When the Father blessed it, a multiplication happened so great that it fed five thousand men plus women and children. They had eaten until they were all full. Then left over fragments were gathered together and twelve baskets were filled. So little became so much! Nothing is impossible with God. Natural laws must give way to the laws of the kingdom of God. The boy who gave to Jesus his lunch of the five loaves and two fish could have likely been rewarded with the twelve baskets of leftovers. God always multiplies blessings back to us. You can not out give God. If you give something away you would naturally anticipate having a loss. But in the Kingdom of God it's just the opposite. It IS more blessed to give than receive. You could say it this way; This is why God said. “Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom.” Abundance and prosperity! God WANTS to bless you so you can be a blessing to others which in turn blesses you... like a perpetual circle. The Kingdom of God works the opposite of this world. In the world to give something away causes you to loose but in the kingdom of heaven to give something away causes you to gain. And He continues in Luke,”For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you." Luke 6:38 NKJV So if you need to get rid of some lack in your life, than be a blessing to someone else for the Gospels sake. It will be multiplied back to you. In the Old Testament under the Law, if you could perfectly keep the Law , it would result in a blessing. Those who kept the Law could receive wages so to speak. It was a covenant, like a contract with God. But now under the New Covenant under Grace we have even better promises. Under Grace we are Blessed even when we don't deserve it because Jesus has perfectly kept the law for us. To receive Jesus is to receive Grace. Must you Wait for Heaven to be Rewarded?Mark 10: 29 It is written,”So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's, who shall not receive a hundredfold, now in this time — houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions — and in the age to come, eternal life.God wants to reward you with abundance and prosperity in the here and now as well as in the life here after. God warns us we will have persecutions here but the things we go through are only like basic training exercises. Training is good, many may not handle material abundance well without it. There are reasons why some blessings have not yet manifested. Seek God to find out what can hinder receiving the blessing. Receiving begins with believing God. God wants us all to enjoy all aspects of the abundant life. The best is a life that is living and walking daily with God Himself. Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." John 10:10 Don't Believe A LieIn John 10:10 God warns us that, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy NKJV. Jesus on the other hand, doesn't tell you to give in order to get something from you.(He walks on gold streets) but he tells you to give so He can get something to you.The thief's lie is that all preachers just want your money. He is trying to steal Your Blessing. Just be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and listen for Him as He shows you who to give to. The Holy Spirit will nudge you to give(not push you). Be a good Stewart and ask God to direct you to plant your seed in good ground and do as the Holy Spirit moves you to do. God wants cheerful givers. And yes, it is possible to be cheerful when you understanding the principles of giving and the result being abundance and prosperity. If someone provides us a service that blesses us, then it is natural for us to bless them back. We pay gratuities without even thinking about it for good service at a restaurant. How is it that some begrudge a pastor or preacher who diligently feeds the flock spiritual food? They dedicated their life to be a blessing to the church and by it lives are changed for eternity. How can the natrual withhold from the spiritual? Bless others that you may be blessed even more with abundance and prosperity. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Get to know Him and He will lead you into the abundance and prosperity He has planed for you even as thy soul prospers. Hebrew 6:12-16 tell us to, “imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises. Abundance and prosperity will come. Children rely on your Father to teach you. God alone will accomplish it in you. Allow God to heal your soul and make it ready to receive. Even though our flesh fails, Jesus came in the flesh to conquer sin which includes all our failures. Jesus used His faith in His Father to accomplish all that He did. Through faith Jesus became a conduit for miracles to flow though Him. Jesus gave us His example as He relied only on His Father in Heaven to do them through Him. ( Focus your eyes on Jesus and not the abundance and prosperity. Seek the giver not the gift.) He who trusts in his riches will fall, But the righteous will flourish like foliage. Pr 11: 28 NKJV. God's will for You is ..."Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth".3 John 2 KJVGod's will is for you to have abundance and prosperity as your soul prospers.
