THE TRUE PROSPERITY PART 1
Psalm 112
True Prosperity is an economic state of growth with rising profits and full employment.
A blooming and flourishing steady progress all round.
Our El-Shaddai- God The all- Bountiful has promised, Salvation coupled with prosperity, health provisions for all needs according to His will.
(Matt 6:33. )
3 Jn:2 saith,
“Beloved,I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.”
This is the will of God for everyone that feareth The Lord, It is the fear of Him that commands obedience, which results into wealth and riches, (Psalm 112:1-3).
In Joshua 1:1-9 God gave 6 commandments of Obedience unto Joshua
(1) Be strong and of good courage
(2) Observe to do all the laws.
(3) Turn not away from it (4) The laws shall not depart thy mouth, but ye shall mediate there-in day and night
5) Be not be afraid
(6) Neither be thou dismayed.
Then comes the great benefits of obedience (1)That ye may prosper Where-ever you go (2) That you can make your ways prosperous (3) You shall have good success.(4) I, God will be with you wherever you go.
This is the law of prophetic perspective operating with man till eternity, as Jesus confirmed in Matt 5:18 “For verily I say unto thee, one jot or one title, shall in no wise pass from the law till all be fulfilled”.
So, with God on your side success is guaranteed.
Beloved, Joshua 1:8 spake about the secret of good success, giving us an understanding that there are BAD and GOOD SUCCESS.
Although, the world celebrate success without weighing the underlying factors.
These series on TRUE PROSPERITY shall examine the word “PROSPERITY” in relation to Divine Abundance.
“For the blessing of The Lord maketh rich, and He added no sorrow”(Pro 10:22) but it must be noted that prosperity is not the
primary purpose of creation, but for man to perform all Gods pleasure, even though, God desires His own people to Prosper, but not at the expense of losing their soul.
1Jn 2:15-17 Saith “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the World… the world passeth away and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abideth for ever” That is eternity on
earth and hereafter.
In the world today we celebrate the prosperity of “THE WICKED” (Psalm 73:3-12) they are Liers, Fraudsters, Robbers, Ritualists, Scammers, Riggers, Embezellers of public funds, Cheaters and all illegetimate enterprises.
Asaph in Psalm 73 declared their end in verse 18-20.”They are set in slippery places; God will cast them out to destruction, they shall come into desolation: they shall be destroyed in a moment..
They shall be consumed in terrors:. Your prosperity shall come to an end like a dream. They are despised of God.
Beloved, you might have seen the inequalities between the Godly and the ungodly from the standpoint of the natural man, complaining of your sacrifices as a believer.
Your constant efforts to live godly in the face of the pleasures enjoyed by the
wicked, which is but temporary, even though they pretend, many have a secret price being paid.
The Bible in Matt 6:33 saith “But seek ye first, the kingdom of God, and His righteousness;and these things shall be added unto you”.
Quit worrying, because it is sinful and must not be tolerated. it breeds fear, mental and physical suicide, anxiety over what is to come, which your worry cannot prevent; Why not as He says “casting your care unto Him for He careth for you”
(1Peter 5:7)
Apostle Paul in Eph 4:28 admonished us” let him that steal, steal no more; but rather, let him labour, working with his hands the things which is good, that he may have to give him that needeth…” “providing for honest things not only in the sight of The Lord, but also in the sight of men” (2 Cor8:21)
“Beloved many of us in the time past were not honest in little things committed unto our care; let us therefore, come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” (Heb 4:16)
Your sins might not have been revealed, but “God is not mocked, for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap” beyond your
life time for God cannot forgive a sin that is not confessed and forsaken.
Psalm 11:3 says “if the foundation be destroyed what can the righteous do?” He must cry to God for a repair, for l have seen according to Pro 10:2 that “Treasure of wickedness profit noting”……to be continued……
