Living a Life of Abundance

Blessed is he who knows that he belongs to the King! He will know what path he is on, and will experience the joy and blessings that come about when one is acquainted with the knowledge necessary to traverse these trails.

These paths are not ordinary paths! By no means are these paths travelled by ordinary measures and practices! No, they are paths that are journeyed via the supernatural, and they are filled with all the blessings of God!

So by now, you will see that what I am talking about here are the ways of the Kingdom - Kingdom Living with God steering the ship. He knows where all the pitfalls are. He has an overview of your life and everyone in it. He sees how all the plans fit together in order that you may receive all your blessings due. It is written Psalm 34:8-10 NKJV “Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! Oh, fear the LORD, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him. The young lions lack and suffer hunger; But those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.”

While those around you are living in poverty, you will see financial gain! While those in your neighbourhood are struggling to pay their mortgages, you will have all your debts paid and be living comfortably. Our God will meet those needs for you, so long as you continue to abide in Him and walk in His ways. John 15:5-8 NKJV “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples."

Those who are obedient to the Lord, will have many of their dreams coming to fruition, and will experience what is referred to as exponential blessings! It is not hard to see that if you choose the correct path, that is, the path to Salvation and Eternity, that you will come to know and experience all of this first hand. Isaiah 55:1-2 NKJV “Ho! Everyone who thirsts, Come to the waters; And you who have no money, Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk Without money and without price. Why do you spend money for what is not bread, And your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And let your soul delight itself in abundance.”

For those that truly follow God’s word, and who have learned by study and experience what it takes to walk this path, you will be living a very different life to those around you. Many will wonder how it is that you have become so successful in your standards of living, and you will have an answer for them. You will be able to say ‘Indeed, those who follow the Lord Jesus Christ will be led onward and upward to victory!’ Nothing will be impossible for you and you will have discovered for yourself that yes its true – with God, what is impossible for man is indeed possible for God! Praise His mighty name!

PS Psalm 36:5-9 NKJV “Your mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Your righteousness is like the great mountains; Your judgments are a great deep; O LORD, You preserve man and beast. How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings. They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house, And You give them drink from the river of Your pleasures. For with You is the fountain of life; In Your light we see light." Amen.

All glory for these words as always goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.

The Fruit of Thy Lips

Speak forth thy Holy Word and you will find yourself eating from thy table of goodness and abundance. I the Lord have spoken! It is essential on this walk to claim your inheritance and have all your desires fulfilled! It is essential because you are My children and this is what I desire for you. I have only one wish for my children and that is that they receive all that is rightfully theirs! Psalm 128:1-2 “Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in obedience to him. You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.” This is my promise to you.

For those who undeniably walk the walk, and talk the talk, they will have a plenitude of blessings come their way. There is much to be had for those who live to serve in the Kingdom. I will see to it that those who put their trust in Me bear much fruit. They will grow and prosper, not only in their spiritual life but in the area of wealth as well. Jeremiah 17:7-8 “But I will bless the person who puts his trust in Me. He is like a tree growing near a stream and sending out roots to the water. It is not afraid when hot weather comes, because its leaves stay green; it has no worries when there is no rain; it keeps on bearing fruit.”

Even when the circumstances around you may say that there is lack, lack and more lack, you will experience a different story! You will have all your needs met and your will receive some extra benefits and blessings along the way! People will look at you and marvel, ‘How is this so?’ You will be able to tell them that your God is taking care of you. Psalm 23:5-6 “You prepare a banquet for me, where all my enemies can see me; you welcome me as an honoured guest and fill my cup to the brim. I know that your goodness and love will be with me all my life; and your house will be my home as long as I live.”

So, in order to walk the walk, and talk the talk, one must be very careful what they say. It is imperative that you remember to always speak the words that you wish to experience, rather than saying it like it is. The facts may appear to you as though there is no hope in a situation. But My power is great unto you! You can have everything you desire.

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread! Be ever so careful and guard your words closely, for they are the path to either life or destruction! Proverbs 18:21 NKJV “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.”

When one considers the multitude of opportunities available to those who commit their lives into My hands, one can then begin to see and experience the miraculous life that can be had. Use the Scripture to create that life. Speak into your situations and desires. That is why it has been given to you; to provide for you the means necessary that you may fulfil your destinies. Psalm 35:27-28 NKJV “Let them shout for joy and be glad, who favor my righteous cause; And let them say continually, ‘Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the properity of His servant.’ And my tongue shall speak of Your righteousness And of Your praise all the day long.” Amen.

PS From the time you wake up until the time you retire, let praise and thanksgiving be the song in thy heart and the fruit of thy lips. Psalm 112:1-3 NKJV “PRAISE the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, Who delights greatly in His commandments. His descendants will be mighty on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches will be in his house, And his righteousness endures forever.” Amen.

All glory goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, whom I believe as always, have gifted me with these words today. Amen.

Prosperity Thinking

n order to grow in the area of finance, we must look to the Bible for the truth. There are many texts that discuss the principles of abundance and prosperity in the Bible. The first thing we must remember though is that it should be our number one priority to serve in God’s Kingdom. If we make that our goal, then we shall be looked after in the area of wealth too. Matthew 6:33 “Instead, be concerned above everything else with the Kingdom of God and with what he requires of you, and he will provide you with all these other things.”

There are many ways in which to increase your wealth. The ways that I am referring to are the worldly ways. There are many ‘get rich quick schemes’ out there, as there are the more conservative ways like saving, investing and so on. However, with God in charge of our increase, we will come to experience much more wealth and abundance than is humanly possible. Deuteronomy 8:18 NKJV “And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.”

Our finances are subject to the Lord. He will decide if and when we will be able to enjoy riches during our ‘stay’ here. We need to be grateful for what we already have, and even for the small things, as this will open the floodgates of God’s great big storehouse of blessings. Psalm 35:27 NKJV ‘Let them shout for joy and be glad, Who favour my righteous cause; And let them say continually, “Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.”

The truth is He will reward you according to your level of faith, and also for your obedience to Him. When we live according to His will, this sets in motion all the great many plans He wants to fulfil for us. When we disregard His ways, He is unable to grant us all of our rewards and blessings. Like when a parent says ‘no television until you do your homework or chores!’ Psalm 128:1-2 TNIV “Blessed are all who fear the LORD, who walk in obedience to him. You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.”

There is much reward and favour shown to those who wait and hope in the Lord, whilst living lives that set the example of how one should live and act within the Body of Christ. When we are obedient to His laws and commands, His promise is that we may live in abundance and prosperity. Deuteronomy 28:1, 11 TNIV “If you fully obey the LORD your God, and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth.....The LORD will grant you abundant prosperity.” So let us be the example that the Lord wants us to be, so that when we come before Him with our prayers and request, we shall be in perfect alignment to receive His favour and blessings upon us and our families! In Jesus name. Amen.

PS Psalm 1:1-3 NKJV “BLESSED is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water. That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.” May you all be shown the path according to His perfect will for you that you may succeed and prosper in all you do.” In Jesus name. Amen.

All glory goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, whom I believe as always have guided me with these words here today. Amen.
