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.

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.

Overcoming the Spirit of Poverty. PART1
Friend there has never been such a timely and Liberating Message as this one, which you are about to Read. Put your Spiritual Battle Clothes on and lets go for a Ride.
Satan would do anything possible, to try and keep you from reading this Message, so I pray in Jesus Name that he be bound and that the Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation come upon you right now, and enlighten the eyes of your Understanding, that you may receive. In Jesus Name.
Unknowingly, to most people including church people, is that we are all in a spiritual battle against demonic powers and evil spirits that will attempt to defeat you and destroy you. And one of those evil spirits is the Spirit of Poverty (You'll see in this teaching that this has very little to do with Money).
The Spirit of Poverty is one of the most powerful and deadly strongholds Satan uses to keep the world in bondage. Every church and every believer must fight and overcome this enemy in order to walk in the purposes for which they are called. This Stronghold is one of the enemy's most successful weapons against us, but by overcoming it we gain a place of Spiritual Authority FROM WHICH WE CAN BE USED TO MEET SOME OF THE WORLD'S PRESSING NEEDS.
Wherever this stronghold is overthrown, it is like casting off the darkness of the most terrible spiritual winter and seeing the world blossom into spring again.
When we think of Poverty, we usually think of money or economics, but the spirit of poverty may or may not have anything to do with these. The SPIRIT OF POVERTY IS A STRONGHOLD ESTABLISHED FOR THE PURPOSE OF KEEPING US FROM WALKING IN THE FULLNESS OF THE VICTORY GAINED FOR US AT THE CROSS, OR THE BLESSINGS OF OUR INHERITANCE IN CHRIST.
This can relate to everything from the quality of our Marriages to the Anointing we have for Ministry, as well as any other resources that we need for what we have been called to do.
The Goal of the spirit of poverty is not just to keep things from us, but to keep us from the will of God. To do this, Satan may even give us great riches, but our lives will nevertheless be just as empty and full of worries as if we were broke and destitute.
The First Step toward defeating the works of darkness is to understand them. We must then apply what God has said in relation to them. Satan is called "The Prince of Darkness" because darkness is his domain. His main strategy is to keep us from seeing the light of God's Word. Therefore, whenever the light of understanding shines on something, his authority over it is broken.
Because Satan can only rule where there is darkness, or ignorance of the truth of God, truth breaks his power. This is why the Lord said, "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (John 8:32)
Both the Lord Jesus and the Church are called "The light of the world" (See John 8:12 and Mathew 5:14) Jesus came to "Destroy the works of the devil." (1 John 3:8), and the way that He did this was by shining light into the darkness. When we walk in the light as He did we will also destroy the enemy's works.
The Lord has given us divinely powerful weapons for the destruction of strongholds (See 2 Corinthians 10:4). Strongholds are maintained by what the Scriptures call principalities. We can cast out demons, but we must wrestle against principalities (See Ephesians 6:12). Wrestling is the closest form of combat, and it is one in which we seek to displace our foes.
GET THIS! Principalities will not flee just because we command them to. We must push them out by walking in the light that exposes them. Truth Spoken by the anointing, is the most powerful weapon there is, and we have been entrusted with it.
Our goal for being free from the spirit of poverty is not just so that we can have things that we need or want, but so that we can do the will of God, without hindrance from either physical or spiritual depravity. When the world witnesses our freedom, it will start asking for answers that we have. When we are free from the yoke of the spirit of poverty, our freedom will be manifested in the natural as well as the spiritual.
Spiritual authority will always have dominion in the natural realm as well, just as the Lord's spiritual authority was manifested by His healing the sick, raising the dead, and even multiplying food.
One evidence that we have been truly freed from the yoke of the spirit of poverty is financial independence. Financial Independence does not necessarily mean that we have Million in the Bank, It does mean that we are free of every Financial Yoke, so that we only have to make decisions based on what the will of the Lord is, not on how much money we have or do not have. I know that this statement is foreign to most believers, it's the truth anyway.
It is God's will that we have more than enough to fulfill his any given instruction. Like Paul we must be content if we are either abased or abounding, as long as it is the will of God for us. That is the key phrase: If it is God's will for us. We don't want to be either abased or abounding if it is not His will. The key for Liberation from any evil stronghold in our life is to know God's Will.
It is important for the Church to be prepared to handle unprecedented wealth.
There are a number of Prophetic Scriptures which indicate that the Wealth of the Nations will be brought into the Church. This will be a great opportunity for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. BUT IT WILL COME AS A RESULT OF THE ADVANCEMENT OF THE KINGDOM, BUT WE MUST REMEMBER THAT SOME OF THE GREATEST TESTS AT THE END OF THIS AGE WILL BE ECONOMIC.
That is why the Mark of the Beast is an Economic Mark, which determines whether we can buy, sell or trade. If we are not free from the yoke of the spirit of poverty, when we receive wealth it will only further corrupt us,and defeat us.
In the end, when the great economic trials are coming upon the world (as it is now happening in many Nations) the faithful will be standing on the Rock that cannot be shaken. That is why many are going through Economic Trials Now. All of them are meant to free us. They are a test, and God's tests are for the purpose of Promotion. IF YOU BEING TESTED NOW, PASS THE TEST, AND GET READY FOR YOUR PROMOTION.
It is Now Time that we pass them, so we can go on to the Better Things.
It is imperative that we set a goal for being financially independent, because that is His will for any of His Children. It is not His will for any of His to be bound by the yokes of this world. There is a clear, biblical strategy that will both get us there and keep us there - If we will follow it Faithfully!
We must therefore seek financial independence, but always keep in mind that it is a means and not the end in itself. To be financially independent without knowing our purpose in God would be like getting all dressed up with no place to go.
Getting free of this stronghold is for the purpose of enabling us to do His will.
(Some are called to go, other are called to Send them! If you not the first, you are the second.)
Seeing that purpose is part of the motivation that it will take to be faithful to His Word.
I HAVE THEREFORE CONCLUDED THAT THIS TEACHING IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS, WILL HELP YOU ACHIEVE THIS PURPOSE.
My prayer for you, is that you receive this word and understand that there is a very real spiritual War waged against your life, from the Kingdom of Darkness - Go through to the other side, because your Promotion is on the other side of your Obedience.
In my next teaching, I will Teach you, on How to "Get Out of Jail Free!"
Ps. Caly
Satan would do anything possible, to try and keep you from reading this Message, so I pray in Jesus Name that he be bound and that the Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation come upon you right now, and enlighten the eyes of your Understanding, that you may receive. In Jesus Name.
Unknowingly, to most people including church people, is that we are all in a spiritual battle against demonic powers and evil spirits that will attempt to defeat you and destroy you. And one of those evil spirits is the Spirit of Poverty (You'll see in this teaching that this has very little to do with Money).
