The Center of Prosperity
Third John 1: 2 says; “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou May prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospers .” To be prosperous means to succeed, to be well off, to have favor before you.
Prosperity is more than money and things. Even so, being human these are nice to have. Even if you were wealthy and you become sick with a serious illness it would be hard to think of yourself as being prosperous.
So to be prosperous you need to have three areas working in your life.
1. Your health
2. Your soul
3. And the favor of God in your life.
The sum total of your prosperity is a measurement of the presence of God that is in your life. The presence of God will cause you to be successful. Gods favor on our lives will cause others to favor us.
The key to prosperity is to have a relationship with God through his Son Jesus Christ.
It may be a fact that you are not very well off financially, but God has a way of turning facts around.
By using other Christians, or just regular people, His angels, along with the Holy Spirit He has the ability to turn anything around to what He wills it to be.
Hebrews 11:6 says; “without faith it is impossible to please God.” To please God you must accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. Thus having Faith in the word and in God.
Why? Because at the cross Jesus finished everything that pertained to the human race and them having to make sacrifices and live under the law. He made it possible for everyone on the planet to have what the word promises. There are no other requirements to be blessed.
Stop trying to force God to move on your behalf with your works and performances. Your faith in what Jesus Christ has already done is what moves Gods blessings.
It is the finished work of Jesus, not what we can do as humans. Christianity was never meant to be riddled with a lot of requirements that we have to do to be blessed.
Jesus set us free from requirements and sacrifices. He nailed them to the cross. When you fall back into works and performances it is saying, what Jesus did at the cross was not good enough.
We are living under the period of grace. Grace is Gods unmerited favor on our lives.
Just trust in God and you will be surprised what He will and can do in your life.
