Like any Father, God wants His
children to prosper. Contrary to
some who seem to think financial
blessings are "sinful," God
wants us to live in abundance.
However, He expects us to use
some of what He has blessed us
with to help spread the Gospel
throughout the earth and to help
those less fortunate.
He does not desire us to live in
lack. To those who wrongly assume
that any believer who is financially
blessed is somehow "out of God's
will," I ask you to look at
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph,
Job and Solomon. God blessed all
of them greatly and He will do
the same for you if you stand on
His Word and honor Him with your
tithes and offerings. The Scriptures
below will verify what God Himself
says regarding prosperity.
"For I know the plans I have
for you,"declares the Lord,
"plans to prosper you and not
to harm you, plans to give
you hope and a future.
Then you will call upon Me
and come and pray to Me,
and I will listen to you.
You will seek Me and find
Me when you seek
Me with all your heart."

depart from your mouth; meditate

in our streets.??t;br>Psalm 144: 13,14
