ABILITY TO MAKE WEALTH 1
“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. (KJV)
Deuteronomy 8:18
Main Text:
Wealth is not a product of hard work or skill, rather, skill or work are just instruments necessary to earn profit. Scripture teaches "It is the blessing of the LORD that makes rich, And He adds no sorrow to it." (Prov. 10:22). Every redemptive package of the kingdom has finalized by the finished work of Christ. However, it requires the operation of God's power to be actualized because of the contention that goes on in the realm of the spirit against your right in God. It takes power to subdue the strongman, it takes power to heal the sick, in the same vein, and it takes power to prosper.
Hard work is good, it is profitable, and however, we see in our daily affairs that hard work is limited. Wealth is not a product of hard work, there are many people who work hard and are living in poverty. The Psalmist says; "Unless the Lord builds a house, its builders labor over it in vain; unless the Lord watches over a city, the watchman stays alert in vain. In vain you get up early and stay up late, working hard to have enough food—yes, He gives sleep to the one He loves." (Psalm 127:1-2)
"Here is something else I have learned: The fastest runners and the greatest heroes don't always win races and battles. Wisdom, intelligence, and skill don't always make you healthy, rich, or popular. We each have our own share of misfortune." (CEV) Ecclesiastes 9:11
Confession: I have the ability to make wealth, I am blessed beyond measure. I am wealthy and powerful.
Prayer: No force can frustrate my wealth, for I shall lend to the nations
