Wealth is not tangible: Part IV

Whoooo! This is getting deeper and hotter! I don’t know about you but I am excited about these revelations. You know Hosea saw this. That is why he said in the 6th verse of his 4th Chapter that “My people are DESTROYED for LACK of KNOWLEDGE, because you have REJECTED KNOWLEDGE .......” The only thing standing between where you are and where God intended you to be is how much you know. And how much you know or don’t know or how wrong what you know is, that is the only thing that Satan has against you (2Cor 4:4, Eph 6:11).

Whatever you are struggling with in life is a result of a knowledge problem in that area of your life. The key to unlocking your wealth is kept within the very principle by which the world exists. When God created this world in Genesis chapter 1, he created only once and is not creating the same way again after those six days. Every living thing God created (spoke into existence), he also created it with the ability to reproduce itself. This is why creation took 6 days and on the seventh day God rested. Life, as we know it operates on the principle of “seed and fruit”. This is why Jesus told his disciples in Mark 4:13 that if they did not understand the parable of the sower, then they would not understand all parables or indeed what the Kingdom of God is about. Gal 6:7 simply reminds us of the fact that you reap what you sow. This means that every action has consequences and there is not short cut about that because it is a law on nature and a law of faith.

Friends the key to unlock your wealth is in Luke 6:38. This scripture is so easy to just read and move on without meditating on it. Your wealth was never intended as reason for you to just live a good and very comfortable life on earth. Your wealth exists for the sole reason that you bring to the world what God wants the world to receive. The reason is because God is spirit (Jn 4:24) and in the beginning he gave power of the physical earth to physical man (Gen 1:26). It is God’s will for his children to be healthy, happy, contented, prosperous, wealthy, etc. and it is not God’s will that any one perish (2 Peter 3:9). Since God cannot take back what he said, his will on earth can only be fulfilled through you and I because today we exist in a physical form. All we need is to renew our minds to how much God loves us and loving others will be the result because it is impossible for anyone to love unconditionally unless you have understood how much God loves you. You cannot give away what you don’t have. Back to Luke 6:38, so many people who have found this scripture have tried to apply it and they don’t see results. The most profound explanation for me is 2Cor 9:6-7. The mystery here is that this law doesn’t work as a transaction ie. that you give so that God can give you more back. This is because doing it that way is not sustainable and sooner or later you get frustrated and you will draw the line somewhere. The way this ties into your wealth is that you have so much more than you are even aware of so there is no reason not to give.

We have been misled to think that giving is always equivalent to money.  The bible tells us that money is the least of the things you can give (Luke 16:10-11). It is more blessed to give of yourself than to give money. (1Cor 13:3). There are so many ways in which you can give to others. Let me challenge you today to seek God and ask him to reveal to you which ways yourself, in particular, can give and I know that I know that I know that he will reveal this to you (Deut 4:29, Jer 29:13). It all begins with that decision you make to accept and receive God’s love and to give it to others. This is the reason why God tells us to seek him first and all these things we want, he will add to us (Matt 6:33). Did you know that God did not create you to be able to live without him (Jer 10:23)? yet most people, probably including you yourself until now, do not know this. That is why many people struggle with things they shouldn’t just because they lack knowledge. And all of this is because true love cannot be forced (1Cor 13:5) and so God will not force his love on you. God will be to you the God you believe he is.

In our final part we shall find out why your journey to wealth and prosperity does not happen in one night. We shall find out what it takes for your true wealth to be manifested and seen in this world. Watch out for Part V ……….

Wealth is not tangible: Part III

In the second part of our series, we looked at biblical examples of wealthy people. But we left off having found out that we are ultimately wealthier beyond measure, even more than King Solomon of the Old Testament. This is really very simple. Let us not forget Genesis 1:26-27. Connect that with John 1:3 and then John 4:24 and you will realise that everything you can perceive first existed in the spiritual form. Therefore the parent force is the spiritual. Your wealth and my wealth exist first of all, in the spiritual realm. It gets better because this wealth is in form of a blessing which is clearly laid out in Deuteronomy 28:2-13.

The reason why your wealth is beyond the wealth the King Solomon and the people in his time ever saw is the reason for which your wealth exists. Do you remember Gen 12:3 and Gen 13:14-17? All these are talking about the reason why Abram needed to understand that he was wealthy. That is so that he could be a blessing to all nations. The same goes for all his descendants. News flash! Being a blessing means having the ability to meet other people’s needs. Can you meet the needs of others when you are in need yourself? I didn’t think so. Now if I know this don’t you think the Almighty God and Creator knew this in the beginning?

Now you can talk of Abraham’s descendants as being the Jews but ask yourself. Are the Jews in the world as many as the dust or the stars in the sky? Look carefully at Galatians 3:8-9. This scripture is revealing the reason why you and I have the opportunity to be wealthier than anyone ever know in the world’s history. This is the revelation of the mystery that was hidden for ages. All you need to do is believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that is it. The gospel of Matthew in Chapter 25:35-40 practically tells you why you have all that wealth stored and promised to you. Your wealth is far greater than King Solomon’s wealth because the world today has more people in need than it did during Solomon’s days.

The 10 billion dollar question is “why have we not seen this kind of wealth yet”?

Now dear friend, your wealth was promised to you by God and therefore he will not withdraw it (Psalms 89:34). Satan cannot touch it because it is in a format that is out of his reach, he can only try to deceive you that he can mess with your wealth (2Cor 4:4, Eph 6:11, Col 2:8). This leaves only you in the equation. You are the only one who can determine how much of your wealth will ever be physically manifested. You carry inside of you the knowledge to manage this wealth and the key to unlock it. Watch out for Part IV and learn how to unlock your wealth…………
