KEYS TO PROSPERITY

“And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the forces of Hades will not overpower it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth is already bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth is already loosed in heaven.”
Matthew 16:18-19
Main Text: Main Text: Revelation 3:8

In life, you need keys to operate certain kind of doors. Kingdom prosperity is accessible, however, for us to access true prosperity certain keys need to be taken advantage of. At certain times in our lives, we couldn't access certain rooms and it's benefits simply because we didn't have the right key. Keys are very important, and Jesus realized that. Keys are important, when you don't have them, you are frustrated, however, when you have them, you have the power to determine what happens in your surroundings. Until you hold the keys to prosperity, the door to prosperity remains shut.

When you become born again, you become entitled to the keys and you are granted access into the mysteries of the Kingdom of God. The operating knowledge of the truth is what is defined as keys to the kingdom. When you have revelation knowledge of the truth of scriptures you hold the key to that area. John 3:3 "Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God”. The keys to the Kingdom are mysterious and only believers have access to these mysteries. 2 Corinthians 8:9 "For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah. Although he was rich, for your sakes he became poor, so that you, through his poverty, might become rich."

It's clear from scripture that God has made provisions for supernatural prosperity for us through redemption. Jesus did not only die to rescue us from hell, he died to rescue our health from sickness and diseases and also our social life. Most individuals believe Jesus was poor, however, he exemplified prosperity in every way possible. He had an accountant who was a thief, and it never disrupted the finances. When they were going to feed 5000 men in John 6, the issues was not where to get money, but where to get the amount of food required. This same Jesus asked that the large upper room be prepared for the celebration of the Passover - in today's world, that is called a Penthouse. Jesus showed us that supernatural prosperity is a reality, and the reality of the New Testament believer. Jesus became poor on that Old rugged cross, so you could walk in abundance. 

Confession:

No door can be shut before me because Jesus has given me the keys, I have an open door now in Jesus name! I am blessed and highly favored.
