Deuteronomy 8:18(KJV)
But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
From the above Scripture, God has a covenant in place that empowers us into realms of financial fortune. It is not the doctrine of a church but His Covenant. God’s covenant of financial prosperity is as binding as His Covenant of any other, and He always remembers His Covenant(Psalm 111:5). The Scripture is also clear that God is the Source of all things. That is, He is the true Source of supernatural supplies. He gives us the power to get wealth. It is vital to know that to have or be anything in life, the Help of God is needed. It takes the power of God to get, magnetize, and acquire wealth. It takes the same power to overcome the forces of poverty. Isaiah 45:2-3 says, “I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: and I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.”
Prosperity is the state of all-round well-being (physically, mentally, and materially). According to 3 John 1:2, the Bible says, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” Not only is God interested in our prosperity, but He also gives us the power to make wealth and prosper. God’s desire for us is to enjoy all round prosperity and exercise dominion over all other creatures. The prosperity of our soul is the topmost priority of God, and once this is settled, all other things are mere additions, which God has promised to release to us liberally. A prosperous life is a healthy and happy life. It is a life that honors God, goes the extra mile to show love to brethren, and takes delight in preaching the gospel and teaching sound doctrines. A prosperous life is a life that is heavenly-focused, a life that is humble despite earthly riches, fears God, and obeys His commandments always.
Beloved, never forget your Source; to forget your Source is to forgo your success and resources. Look unto God alone as the Source of all things. Don’t ever beat your chest and say your intelligence, energy, talent, connection, and contact have brought you to where you are. Properly acquaint with God and obey His Word. Worship Him with fear and trembling. You must be completely determined to do away with your self-centered tendencies and love the Lord with all your heart and resources. Obey His commandments in tithing, offering, giving first fruits (Malachi 3:10), and remember the needy, the widow, and the orphans (Proverbs 19:17).
O Lord, I receive the grace to look unto You only as the Source of my success and wealth in Jesus’ Name.
