4. What is God’s Position on Wealth for His sons and daughters? Note: 1.Every clear involvement of God in the Bible led to abundance. 2.Nowhere does the Bible give the responsibility of the economy to governments. It’s to the church. 3.Christ became poor so we could become rich. 4.The blessing of the Lord makes rich. 5.Rich is not a particular figure in a particular currency!

5. 2 Cor 8:9 9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich. Jesus became sin, so we could be made the righteousness of God, He was broken, so we could be healed, He became poor SO WE COULD BECOME RICH!

6. 1 Tim 6:9-10 9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

7. Money is NOT the root of all evil. It is the LOVE of money (any amount) which leads to all kinds of evil. “Ignorance about money is the root of all evil” – Robert Kiyosaki In the Proverbs, godly character leads to wealth and ungodly character leads to poverty and other ills. The godly ARE MADE rich, they DON’T SEEK to be rich.

8. Prov 10:4 4 He who has a slack hand becomes poor, But the hand of the diligent makes rich. Prov 13:4 4 The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing; But the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.

9. Prov 11:24-25 24 There is one who scatters, yet increases more; And there is one who withholds more than is right, But it leads to poverty. 25 The generous soul will be made rich, And he who waters will also be watered himself.

10. Prov 10:22 22 The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it. Ps 133:3 3 It is like the dew of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the Lord commanded the blessing — Life forevermore.

11. THE BLESSING The blessing is NOT wealth. It can and does lead to wealth but it is not. Wealth ≠ Blessing Health ≠ Blessing Great Relationships ≠ Blessing Blessing » » Health, Wealth, Great Relationships, Joy, Peace, etc. The blessing is ETERNAL LIFE. Eternal Life is the intimate relationship with God and Jesus Christ (John 17:3)

12. Deut 8:18 18 "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. The purpose of all this wealth is for God to establish His covenant with Abraham, the covenant of the blessing to all the nations of the earth.

13. Believers are the solution to the world’s greed with its attendant economic and social problems… and we won’t be able to do it without insane financial resources. “The most selfish prayer a believer can pray is for God to meet their needs” – Noah Baalessanvu Bill Gates performs more miracles than Benny Hinn!

14. Gal 3:8-9 8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, "In you all the nations shall be blessed." 9 So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham. The Gospel according to God is our being a blessing to all nations.

15. Luke 4:18-19 18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; 19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."

16. Gal 3:16 16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, "And to seeds," as of many, but as of one, "And to your Seed," who is Christ. The promises made by God to Abraham were not just for Israel (explains why the Jews are the richest race on earth), they were to Christ and the Church, the joint heirs(Gal 3:29).

17. Gen 26:12-13 12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the Lord blessed him. 13 The man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous;

18. Gal 3:29 29 And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. Every Christian is as entitled to this blessing and its “effects” as Isaac and Jacob were. It’s time to ACTIVATE! It’s also worth finding out what “THE PROMISE” was and is…

19. Rom 4:13-14 13 For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
