Understanding The Seed Process. PART 1
Understanding The Seed Process. PART 1
Mathew 6:30-32 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, Oh you of little faith? Therefore, take no thought, saying; What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after these things do the Gentiles seek.) For your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things.
In the above scripture, God gives us the way to break out of our walls of containment and the way to get all of our needs met. The key, however, is in verse 33.
Mathew 6:33 Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Notice the words "Kingdom of God", What God is doing here is setting up a specific system to get those specific things that you need manifested. The process is called "KINGDOM OF GOD." Actually, what He is saying to His children is "SEEK YE FIRST MY WAY OF DOING THINGS."
The job is not God's way. The job is not to make a living, it is to get seed so you can sow for a Living. Some say, "If I can only get a good job. The job I have now is not a well paying job. It doesn't pay enough to meet my needs.
What is this process leading up to?
Manifestation!
When you deal with God's system, you always go into the "Over and Above."
If you are not in the over and above you are in the wrong system. Many think because you have R 1 000 000 in the bank, that's it, but if God had a project, it would be hard to give because it was a struggle to get it.
The job has limitations.
How many of you are ready to breakthrough limitations?
What should you do when you have a need? There are three rules to follow:
1. CAST A SEED INTO THE GROUND.
You have to follow God's instructions. In Mathew 6:33 we see the kingdom of God, which is God's way of doing things. We may have followed God's way in a lot of things, but we have never tapped fully into His way of doing things about Money. What He wants us to do is to get what He wants us to have.
Mathew 6:33 and Mark 4:26 - "So is the kingdom pf God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground" - both refer to the "Kingdom of God." Luke also explains the process of what you have to do to switch from one system to another system.
Now remember "Seek ye first the kingdom of God" and "So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground."
What does a man do when he has a need? Work overtime; Look for income from a second job.
The first thing in the process is to cast a seed into the ground. Note, however, that the worlds system will not tell you to do this. The world's system tells you that you need a savings account and a budget. When you get on God's syetm properly, you don't need a budget. A budget is merely to stop you from overspending, but when you get out of the system you can't overspend.
Now until you get out of the system, you will have to budget yourself.
The key is to change your thinking because God is unlimited. You must do what He tells you to do to break out of these walls of containment.
You can plant a financial seed but if you let words come out the wrong way, you will uproot the seed with the words of your mouth.
Malachi 3:13 Your words have been stout against me , says the Lord. What have we spoken so much against you?
Let God become your source, plant your seeds, and pray in the Spirit. When a man is praying in the Spirit, the Bible says he is speking unto God, not unto men. Hidden wisdom and hidden secrets are revealed. When you plant a seed, God will give you secrets about money, then you put yourself in a position to get the wisdom to know what to do while you are waiting for the seed in the ground to grow.
The second thing praying in the spirit does is after you have planted your seed, it edifies, builds you up, and gets you ready to go through whatever you have to go through as a result of planting that seed.
You need wisdom in order to become wealthy, and wisdom is the ability to use the knowledge you need about money, then you put yourself in a positiion to get the wisdom to know what to do while you are waiting for the seed in the ground to grow.
The second thing praying in the spirit does is after you have planted your seed, it edifies, builds you up, and gets you ready to go through whatever you have to go through as a result of planting that seed.
You need wisdom, in order to become wealthy, and wisdom is the ability to use the knowledge you need about money. Wisdom will show you what to do and how to do it. Also wisdom shines the light and takes all the knowledge you have obtained; Plus, it will even give you knowledge you did not have in the form of revelation. All of a sudden, not only will you be able to do something you didn't know how to do. Then you will have a right to the harvest of what you know to do because you planted a seed.
This is very important.
We saw in Mathew 6;33 where the Lord says, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God," and in Mark 4:26, we saw how the system works by casting a seed in the ground.
I want to share more light on this subject with you, on the Power of Expectation for Manifestation, and the Importance of Naming your Seed. I will do this in my next teaching Blog.
Learning God's Finacial System, is the Greatest Weapon you have against the chaos that is going on in the World's Economic System! Learn it and apply it and you will always live well above anything the Devil can do in this world.
I WANT TO LEAVE YOU WITH THIS FAITH CONFESSION TO REMOVE FINACIAL HINDERANCES:
SAY: God, Your Word says that whatever I bind on earth is bound in heaven and whatever is loose on earth is loosed in heaven.
Therefore on the authority of your word, I bind every force that has set itself against my finacial prospeirty!
I hereby declare all curses against me null and void, and harmless!
I am REDEEMED FROM THE CURSE OF POVERTY!
I AM FREE FROM OPPRESSION!
I now loose the abundance of God, and all that rightfully belongs to me now comes to me under grace in a perfect way! AMEN!

Recognizing The Harvest God Sends To You!
Harvest Occurs Daily In Your Life!
Your Harvest is any good Thing in your Life.
* Any Person who blesses, encourages, corrects, strengthens or improves you.
* Any Idea planted by your Creator that has potential for helping others.
* Any Opportunity to increase your finances, maximize your standard of excellence or unlock a gift, or skill within you - It is any opportunity you have to solve a problem.
Few recognize their Harvest when it Occurs.
Your Harvests are coming toward you Every Moment of Your Life. It is your responsibility to recognize them.
Almost nobody recognizes a harvest when it occurs.
If you did not wake up in a Hospital this morning, breathing, alive and well - You've received another Harvest, because millions didn't.
When you sit tonight around your table, and have a family, and a bowl of food - You've received a Harvest, because 75% of the world does not have these blessings, and over 1 Billion people go to bed hungry every night.
10 Facts About Your Harvest.
1. Your Harvest is any person or anything that can bless or Benefit You.
It may be someone who can contribute something you need - Information, favor, finances, ideas or encouragement when you need it.
2. Your harvest already exists.
It is walking around you! Just as your eyes had to be opened to recognize Jesus, your eyes also must be opened to recognize Your Harvests as they come.
3. Access to someone who believes in you is a Harvest.
Every golden connection is a Harvest.
4. Your Harvest occurs when someone recommends you to others.
Any flow of favor and acceptance toward your life is a Harvest.
5. The entire world missed the Harvest of Jesus.
"He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received him not." (John 1:10-11) What a Tragedy!
Spiritual leaders, such as the Pharisees, failed to recognize Him! Politicians of His day failed to see Him as the Harvest.
6. Everything you possess came from Him.
7. Everything you will ever Own in your Future must come from Him.
8. Your Miracle Harvest is going past you everyday.
You may be failing to be thankful for it.
9. You must stop what you are doing long enough to Celebrate the Good Happenings around you.
10. You are Continually moving toward a Glorious Harvest.
Something marvelous is also moving toward you. Can you slow down long enough to discern it?
That's why I don't listen to the critics and haters that have no revelation of the message of Seed time and Harvest, which is sowing a Seed for a Harvest.
For many preachers, the Offering time is normally a painful time - This is so sad! Just thinking, how many believers under their care, are being robbed of the Blessing of the Harvest, and live without.
Praying is not enough to have your needs met - Otherwise the Bible would Only teach on Prayer and nothing else. But No, it teaches far more in Seed Time and Harvest, than it does on Prayer.
This teachings needs to go to every believer.
Lets Pray this Prayer for a moment:
"Father, forgive me for ingratitude, unthankfulness and any blindness toward The Harvests You have provided. It is true that our complaining spirit has robbed us and aborted many miracles You had scheduled for us. In the name of Jesus, I release myself to You. I give all of me to You, knowing that You will reveal wonderful and powerful things to me.
Thank You for my health, my eyesight, and my ability to walk today.
Thank You for the mind that You have given me, and the doors of Favor that have opened into my life. You are a marvelous, powerful and giving God.
I am thankful. I am grateful.
I shall not forget Your blessing on my life.
I'll be swift to give You the glory and praise for every good thing You do for me and my family.
You will receive the Tithe of everything You give me!
I thank you for every blessing.
In the Name of Jesus. AMEN!"
Recognition of your Harvest will destroy the Root of Bitterness, unleash enthusiasm and power in your life, that will open a thousand doors of Favor in your life.
NB: Your Faithfulness to Praying, Tithing and Sowing seeds into this Ministry, is what enables us to keep sharing the Truth of God's Word, that sets the Captives Free!

Overcoming the Spirit of Poverty. PART 5
DON'T GO BACK TO JAIL.
We were bought with the highest price that could be paid - The Blood of the Lamb (Jesus Christ).
Because "The borrower becomes the lender's slave" (Proverbs 22:7), when we go into debt we sell ourselves to become the slave of another. If we belong to Christ we are not our own to sell. When we go into debt we are actually selling that which belongs to God.
Does this mean we should never go into debt for anything? In principle this is true.
However, we must understand that we do not live under the law, and there is a difference between principles and laws.
Laws cannot be broken, but there are exceptions to principles. This does not mean we can just disregard principles any time we want to. It means that we need to hear very clearly from the Lord to do so.
For example, I know some people who years ago felt they should not go into debt for a house, even though the mortgage was less than the lease payments, and the house was in an appreciating market. At the time I felt that this debt was permissible, but they disagreed. Now these people are still leasing, with payments that are much higher than they were then. They could have now owned the house outright, and its value has more than quadrupled.
This does not necessarily mean they should have bought the house, especially if their conscience would not permit them to.
Many believer that "Owe no man anything except love" (See Romans 13:8) is an emphatic command that we cannot compromise.
However, if it were an emphatic commandment, why did He chastise the foolish servant in the parable of the talents for not at least getting interest for his money?
Would the Lord encourage us to lean money at interest if it were a sin to borrow under any circumstances?
In the Old Covenant, the Israelites were commanded not to loan their money at interest to others, which is why the Jews have been the most outstanding bankers in history. Even so, as a principle (not a law), it is better not to go into debt for any reason without a clear, directive from the Lord. We must get out of Debt, and stay out of Debt, EXCEPT when we are clearly permitted to do otherwise for a season.
I PRAY THIS TEACHING IS BRINGING A BALANCED UNDERSTANDING INTO THIS SUBJECT THAT IS MUCH DEBATED.
God's best is - STAY OUT OF DEBT! BORROW ONLY UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
Thank you for your continual Prayers and Financial support .... We pray for a Hundredfold Blessing on every Seed Sown into this Ministry.

Overcoming the Spirit of Poverty. PART4
RECEIVING THE WEALTH OF NATIONS.
A Law of physics states that energy is never destroyed, but simply changes forms.
The same is true of Wealth; It is never destroyed, but often changes hands. Even during the Great Depression, wealth was not destroyed, but was transfered to those who were in a position to take advantage of the times.
Those who were in this position were those who were not in Debt, and had cash readily available.
Businesses were bought for as little as 10% of their value. Land was bought for as little as a $1 per acre. The wealth was taken from those who had overextended themselves with debt and was received by those who had the Wisdom to live within their means.
We are heading for an even greater economic upheaval than the Great Depression. In some instances, some have labeled the present world economic situation as worst than the Great Depression. And it will get Worst in this World, with Nations on the brink of Bankruptcy and asking for Financial Aid from other Nations and Organizations.
The Bankers and Financial Reporters are trying to cool people's fears, by saying that there is a recovery, and that things are heading back to normal. This is a lie! Things are going to get far worst, Banks are going to close down, and the property market (which is the market that the world economic system operates on, by keeping people in Debt) will totally collapse. It's happened in Ireland lately.
The Worst is yet to come!
Now, I'm not saying this to create Fear, but to Create Joy!
Yes Joy. Because we as the body of Christ, that have been using our Faith and Anticipating these prophetic times will be advantaged and prepared to take advantage of the times and receive authority over unprecedented Wealth.
We have been preparing ourselves for this, by the problems God has allowed us to go through in the past, and some even now. Yes, the problems you have been going through, are preparing you, for the Great Wealth Transfer.
As the Psalmist wisely exhorted: Psalm 32:6 Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You in a time when you may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters they shall not reach Him.
The Lord is allowing us not to go through troubles now that are meant to drive us to higher ground. Even if we have been faithful in all things, sometimes the Lord still allows us to go through troubles, just as He did Joseph, so He can trust us even more of His Abundance.
Like Joseph, we are being prepared to properly manage the abundance that we receive, so that it can save lives during the times of famine that are coming.
The Lord wants His people prepared to use the circumstances that are coming for the sake of His Gospel, not just so that we can get rich to show off to our peers or self consumption.
ONE FUNDAMENTAL FLAW THAT WILL KEEP US BOUND BY THE SPIRIT OF POVERTY IS SELFISHNESS.
When it comes to the Lord trusting us with more resources, motives are crucial.
The Lord is right now preparing His people for what is about to come. He has been warning His Church for over 30 years to get out of Debt. He has given us plenty of time to do it. However, because of the expected catastrophic economic problems have take so long to come, many have disregarded the warning. Even now, many are still dogmatic that this will not happen, and fail to Tithe and Sow Finacial Seed into the Kingdom of God, believing it will not effect them. The prophecy God game me, a few years ago, was that everything was going to be shake, that could be shaken. LET ME REMIND YOU, THAT IT IS ONLY THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN BUILDING, AND ARE PRESENTLY BUILDING THE TRUTHS OF GOD'S WORD INTO THEIR LIVES, THAT WILL COME OUT OF THIS BIG SHAKE UP, UNHARMED.
There's still time to repent and get our houses in order, but we must not delay another day!
Those who are obedient will have nothing to fear from what is coming, but can look forward to a godly prosperity in the midst of Famine. Those who continue in Disobedience will Pay a Terrible Price for it.
To be forewarned is to be forearmed.
I HAVE THIS PRAYER THAT I WANT YOU TO OPEN YOUR HEART AND PRAY:
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the eyes of my Understanding being enlightened to the truths of your Word,
Help me to make the meditation of my heart and the thoughts of my mind, become agreeable with your Word; So that I amy not be judged with the wicked of this world.
Today, I recommit myself to live by the truth of your Word, and walk in your divine plan for my life.
Thank you for Your grace to continually Obey your Word in Faith.
I may have missed it in the past, and I repent Saying: From this time forth, I am a doer of the Word of God.
Amen.
Friend I pray that the above is helping you understand and walk in the full protection and provision of the God's Promises.
SOWING AND REAPING ARE GOD'S PLAN FOR THE BELIEVER TO LIVE ABOVE THE WORLD'S SYSTEM .... What you sow, is between you and the Lord, but be encouraged to sow your best seed into our ministry today expecting a Bountiful Harvest to come back to you, in the form of your own need.

We are heading for an even greater economic upheaval than the Great Depression. In some instances, some have labeled the present world economic situation as worst than the Great Depression. And it will get Worst in this World, with Nations on the brink of Bankruptcy and asking for Financial Aid from other Nations and Organizations.
The Bankers and Financial Reporters are trying to cool people's fears, by saying that there is a recovery, and that things are heading back to normal. This is a lie! Things are going to get far worst, Banks are going to close down, and the property market (which is the market that the world economic system operates on, by keeping people in Debt) will totally collapse. It's happened in Ireland lately.
The Worst is yet to come!
Now, I'm not saying this to create Fear, but to Create Joy!
Yes Joy. Because we as the body of Christ, that have been using our Faith and Anticipating these prophetic times will be advantaged and prepared to take advantage of the times and receive authority over unprecedented Wealth.
We have been preparing ourselves for this, by the problems God has allowed us to go through in the past, and some even now. Yes, the problems you have been going through, are preparing you, for the Great Wealth Transfer.
As the Psalmist wisely exhorted: Psalm 32:6 Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You in a time when you may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters they shall not reach Him.
The Lord is allowing us not to go through troubles now that are meant to drive us to higher ground. Even if we have been faithful in all things, sometimes the Lord still allows us to go through troubles, just as He did Joseph, so He can trust us even more of His Abundance.
Like Joseph, we are being prepared to properly manage the abundance that we receive, so that it can save lives during the times of famine that are coming.
The Lord wants His people prepared to use the circumstances that are coming for the sake of His Gospel, not just so that we can get rich to show off to our peers or self consumption.
ONE FUNDAMENTAL FLAW THAT WILL KEEP US BOUND BY THE SPIRIT OF POVERTY IS SELFISHNESS.
When it comes to the Lord trusting us with more resources, motives are crucial.
The Lord is right now preparing His people for what is about to come. He has been warning His Church for over 30 years to get out of Debt. He has given us plenty of time to do it. However, because of the expected catastrophic economic problems have take so long to come, many have disregarded the warning. Even now, many are still dogmatic that this will not happen, and fail to Tithe and Sow Finacial Seed into the Kingdom of God, believing it will not effect them. The prophecy God game me, a few years ago, was that everything was going to be shake, that could be shaken. LET ME REMIND YOU, THAT IT IS ONLY THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN BUILDING, AND ARE PRESENTLY BUILDING THE TRUTHS OF GOD'S WORD INTO THEIR LIVES, THAT WILL COME OUT OF THIS BIG SHAKE UP, UNHARMED.
There's still time to repent and get our houses in order, but we must not delay another day!
Those who are obedient will have nothing to fear from what is coming, but can look forward to a godly prosperity in the midst of Famine. Those who continue in Disobedience will Pay a Terrible Price for it.
To be forewarned is to be forearmed.
I HAVE THIS PRAYER THAT I WANT YOU TO OPEN YOUR HEART AND PRAY:
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the eyes of my Understanding being enlightened to the truths of your Word,
Help me to make the meditation of my heart and the thoughts of my mind, become agreeable with your Word; So that I amy not be judged with the wicked of this world.
Today, I recommit myself to live by the truth of your Word, and walk in your divine plan for my life.
Thank you for Your grace to continually Obey your Word in Faith.
I may have missed it in the past, and I repent Saying: From this time forth, I am a doer of the Word of God.
Amen.
Friend I pray that the above is helping you understand and walk in the full protection and provision of the God's Promises.
SOWING AND REAPING ARE GOD'S PLAN FOR THE BELIEVER TO LIVE ABOVE THE WORLD'S SYSTEM .... What you sow, is between you and the Lord, but be encouraged to sow your best seed into our ministry today expecting a Bountiful Harvest to come back to you, in the form of your own need.

Overcoming the Spirit of Poverty. PART3
THE MARK OF THE BEAST & THE MARK OF GOD.
Because "THE LOVE" of money is the Root of all evil." (1 Timothy 6:10), Money tests some of the ultimate issues of the human heart. Idolatry is one of the ultimate offenses against God. Money is one of the primary Idols in the world today. And Idol is not just something that people fear or worship, but what they put their TRUST IN.
Money in itself is NOT EVIL, but how we relate to it can be a factor that determines the entire course of our lives for good or evil.
Many sincere Christians still have idolatry in their hearts in relation to money, because they trust more in their jobs or bank accounts than they do in the Lord. Because we know that one of the ultimate tests that comes upon the people living in the last days will revolve around the 'Mark of the Beast", which is an Economic Mark that determones whether we can buy, sell or trade under his system, it is imperative that we confront this in our Lives NOW!
In REVELATION 7:1-3 (Read) we see that four angels are sent to hold back the four winds of the earth until the BONDSLAVES of God have been marked on their foreheads. Believers have spent a great amount of time trying to figure out how this mark of the Beast will come, so they will not be fooled by it, but there has been almost no attention given to how we will take the Mark of God. The only way we will not take the Mark of the Beast, regardless of whether we know what it is or not, is to have the Mark of God.
If we are marked by God we will never have to Fear taking the enemy's mark.
These angels held back the winds of the earth, which are the violent forces that are destined to sweep the earth, until the BONDSERVANTS were Sealed. They key to understanding this seal of God is to Understand the BONDSERVANT, just as the key to understand the Mark of the Beast is to understand who those taking the Mark are serving, which is the Beast.
IT IS OBVIOUS THAT NOT ALL BELIEVERS ARE BONDSERVANTS.
Many really do come to an understanding of the sacrifice of Jesus for their sins, but they still go on living their lives for themselves. We were the slaves of sin and were purchased by the cross. If we are Christ's we are NO LONGER OUR OWN - We belong to Him. A BONDSERVANT does not live for himself, but for his master.
This commitment is not just an intellectual agreement with certain Biblical principles; It is the commitment to a radical Lifestyle of Obedience.
A BONDESERVANT does not have any money or time of his own, and he therefore cannot freely spend what he has been entrusted with, since it is not his. Even his family belongs to his Master.
To Voluntarily become a slave is the ultimate commitment that can be made in this world. That is what it really means to embrace the Cross. Those who are truly BONDSERVANTS are the ones who will receive His Mark, and escape the Mark of the Beast.
Even though the Lord purchased us with His blood, He will not force anyone to be His BONDSERVANT. In Scripture a BONDASERVANT was one who was able to go Free, but loved his Master so much that he chose to be his slave for the rest of his life. HAVE YOU CHOSEN THE FREE LIFE? WHERE SLAVERY IS TRUE FREEDOM.
We, too are FREE to choose whether we will be a BONDSERVANT or not.
God allows us to choose whether we will serve Him or Not, because FREEDOM is required for true Worship or for true Obedience from the heart.
There can be no Obedience from the heart unless there is the Freedom to Disobey.
The reason He put the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden was to give man the Freedom to Choose whom he would serve. This was not to cause man to fall, but rather so that man could prove his devotion. If all the Lord had wanted was Obedience, He would have done better to just create computers and programed them to worship Him. Would this kind of worship be acceptable to anyone, much less our Glorious Creator?
We are free to go on living for ourselves but it is the Ultimate Folly.
We must know the Lord as our Source and keep our trust in Him.
THE KEY TO SURVIVAL IN THIS TIME IS BEING A BONDSERVANT!
Every master is obligated to provide for his slaves, and we have the most dependent Master of all. He will take care of His own.
When we are truly dead to the world there is nothing the world can do to us. It is impossible for a dead man to fear, to be offended, or to feel remorse because he loses some of his possessions. To the Degree that we fear the loss of our possessions or positions, that is probably the degree to which we are still not dead to these things.
The Enemy uses Fear to Bind us just as the Lord uses Faith to set us Free.
When we are dead to this world but alive to Christ we have Him - all of the treasures of the earth seem petty and insignificant. When we are seated with the King od Kings on His Throne, what pull can any earthly position have for us?
This does not mean that we do not have a genuine care for our jobs or ministries here, but we care for them because they have been entrusted to us by Him, and we engage in them as worship unto Him.
If our positions here are taken from us, we are still seated with Him, and we will worship Him in whatever way He calls us to next.
We are His slaves, and we must be content with whatever job He gives to us.
When Christ is our life, our Trust, and the true Desire of our Hearts, He can trust us with the earthly possessions and positions that we are called to rule over. But if He is not our Life, our Trust, and the Desire of our hearts, our possessions and positions will inevitably rule over us, making us Slave to them. But if He is not our Life, our Trust, and the Desire of our hearts, our possessions and positions will inevitably rule over us.
WHOEVER OR WHATEVER RULES OVER US IS IN FACT OUR LORD!
We are entering a time when the Lordship of JESUS must be more than a doctrine, or something we choose to believe, over something else - It must be a profound and continuing reality in our lives. Then we will be FREE INDEED.
When we are fully yoked to Him, having cast off the yokes of this present Evil Age, He will then be Free to Trust us with the Unlimited Resources of His Kingdom.
I pray this teaching has helped you to Redefine your Position in the Kingdom of God, and mostly to make all the right adjustments to positions yourself to Receive what He has for you to contribute to His Kingdom. Amen.

Overcoming the Spirit of Poverty. PART2
One of the most basic conflicts between the kingdom of God and this present age is that the latter is built on slavery, but the Lord came to set men free. Everything that Satan does is intended to increase the yoke of bondage upon us. Everything that the Lord does is intended to set us free.
As we proceed toward the end of the age, the differences between these two kingdoms will become increasingly pronounced.
How do we get free to live to live in the kingdom of God?
This is the quest of every believer. Then, once our lives are firmly established in the kingdom, we must seek to tear down the strongholds of the enemy and set his captives free. In our battle we must always remember that the conflict is between slavery and freedom. If you belong to Christ Jesus you are called to be free.
It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke (bondage) of slavery. (Galatians 5:1)
The Lord purchased us with His own blood.
We belong to the King of Kings. He has called us to be sons of God, joint heirs with Him. We are called to represent His Kingdom as ambassadors, walking as members of the highest nobility, royalty of the highest order, God's own family. To do this, we must be free from the yokes of this present age, and carry only His yoke.
Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy - laden, and I will give you rest.
Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest for your souls.
For My yoke is easy, and My load is light.(Mathew 11:28-30)
Yokes represent bondage - One of them, being finacial bondage.
There are yokes of bondage by which men are kept in darkness and oppression. These yokes usually appear to be a form of freedom, but result in the most terrible burdens. In contrast, the Lord's yoke appears at first to be bondage, but results in the greatest freedom we can ever know.
We willl all carry someones yoke. We will either carry the yokes of this present evil age or the yoke of the Lord. If we are to carry the Lord's yoke, we must cast off every yoke of the enemy. We cannot serve two masters. The one whose yoke we carry will be the one we serve and represent in this world.
We can make every claim to be Christian, but if we live our lives according to the ways of this present evil age, we are serving the powers of evil.
You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whosoever wishes to be friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose: "He jealously desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us?"
But He gives a greater grace, Therefore it says, "GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE."
Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you, Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. (James 4:4-8)
There can be no compromise.
If we are yoked to the Lord, we will serve Him only.
As we proceed to the end of this age, the differences are going to become more pronounced, and the battle between the two kingdoms more fierce. But all of this is happening for the purpose of setting us free!
All that happens will result in the Lord having a bride that is prepared for Him, without spot or blemish.
The Scriptures are clear that great troubles are coming upon the world at the end of this age. Even if we believe that we will be rapture before the "great tribulation,: what the Lord said was just "the beginning of birth pangs" makes it clear that we must be prepared for difficulties. Our preparation for difficulties is to see first the kingdom, live in the kingdom, and always represent the kingdom of God, which is simply to Obey the King.
If we are faithful to do this, we do not have to fear these difficulties, whether we believe that we will go through the tribulation or not.
The kingdom of God cannot be shaken, and if we have built our lives upon it, we will not be shaken to destruction.
Every difficulty that comes upon us now is to help us build our lives on the kingdom of God.
For it is time for judgement to begin with the household of God. (1 Peter 4:17)
When we hear the word "JUDGMENT', we often equate it with destruction caused by the Lord's ultimate wrath. If we read the Scriptures in the Languages in which they were originally written, we would not feel this way.
The Greek word that is translated 'JUDGMENT' in this text is 'KRISIS', the word from which we derive our English word "CRISIS'. This what we read in news paper headlines all over the world.
Crisis this, and Crisis that.
A definition of CRISIS is "the point in a disease or trauma when it is determined if the patient will live or die."
The above scripture could have been translated, "It is time for Crisis to begin with the house of God."
The implication is that the church will go through crisis before the world does.
God allows this so that when the world is going through crisis we will be on Solid Ground.
I believe that we are already in this position. We've gone through and we've withstood the winds of hell. Now we Strong and can withstand anything that goes on this this world. AMEN!
This is what James Wrote:
My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your Faith produces patience.
But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. (James 1:2-4 NKJV)
HERE WE SEE THAT RIALS PRODUCE PATIENCE (persistence), WHICH LEADS TO OUR PERFECTION, SO THAT WE WILL NOT LACK ANYTHING.
THAT IS TRUE BIBLICAL PROSPERITY!
'The earth is the Lord's, and all it contains, the world, and those who dwell in it" (Psalm 1:2-4 NKJV)
Even though it is presently subject to bondage because of the fall, the Lord is going to take this world back. We have been called to be part of His invasion force, but we can only be on one side in this battle.
We must now get free of every yoke of the enemy that causes us in any way to compromise the ways of the kingdom of God.
The trials we are now going through are all meant to help us do this.
The Lord is not the least worried about the economy, or any other human problems.
We are called to be seated with Him in Heavenly places (READ Ephesians 2:6).
Our Lord will never lack for resources to do what He wants to do.
Neither will we ever lack for the resources to do what He wants us to do.
I PRAY THAT THIS TEACHING HAS BROUGHT MORE LIGHT ON THE SUBJECT OF PROSPERITY, AND THAT YOU KEEP PROSPERING EVEN AS YOUR SOUL PROSPERS.
