It seems that everywhere you look the
economists are telling us that the world
is headed for deep financial chaos.
It’s not a matter of "if" but "when"
this bleak prognosis is going to come to
pass. Rising interest rates,
raging fuel prices, increased inflation,
oil costs being lifted are going to
cause insurmountable problems
economically.
Top financial advisers everywhere are
telling us that this is not a good time
to be in debt. This is the world’s
economy functioning like a stranglehold
on society.
The result is fear, anxiety and
depression for millions of people trying
to make ends meet. Man’s
governance of wealth is dreadfully
unfair with unequal distribution of
wealth world-wide. This is the
world’s system and it’s cursed.
That’s the bad
news….and now the GOOD NEWS!
There is another economy which exists
outside of the world’s economy. An
economy which is far more superior and
is not intimidated by the world’s system
in anyway. It’s God’s Economy,
which is governed by God’s Word and the
government of heaven.
The key to escape the consequences of
the spiralling global financial chaos is
simply this: Are you in Covenant with
God?
Deuteronomy
8:18
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.
There are many important keys
contained in this scripture.
We should REMEMBER the Lord.
It is He who gives you POWER to get
wealth.
We are to GET WEALTH but He will empower
us to do it.
He may ESTABLISH HIS COVENANT.
In other words, God is going to
supernaturally give you the
opportunities, talents, gifting, open
doors and breakthroughs required to get
wealth.
As a Christian I am in covenant with
the Most High God who loves me and cares
for me. The Covenant with God is based
on the fact that I have now died to self
and I am available to God for whatever
He pleases and because of this He is
bound to have to take care of me. A
Covenant is a duel agreement which has
mutual benefits for each party. My
Covenant with God guarantees me
provision. God's Covenant with me
guarantees Him service.
Within this Covenant I have all the
rights of a Kingdom person functioning
with King Jesus as my supreme leader and
authority. I am an ambassador for
Christ. I represent the King of Kings
and the Lord of Lords therefore my King
and government is bound to meet all of
my needs as I represent Him.
In the Kingdom of God there is no
buying & selling. This is the earthly
system which requires a trade to take
place. In the Kingdom of God the economy
operates on a far higher principal, the
law of sowing & reaping. Attached to
this principal is the dynamic power of
the Blessing!
The keys which govern prosperity &
abundance are simple spiritual kingdom
laws which when activated work every
time. For example...Through Tithing the
Law of the Kingdom say's that I will be
blessed. That God will rebuke the
devouring spirit from touching my
provision and that the windows of heaven
will be opened upon my life. This is
found in Malachi Chapter 3.
Proverbs 10:22
The BLESSING of the Lord makes one rich
and He adds no sorrow with it.
The Hebrew translation say’s ‘The
Blessing of the Lord makes rich and hard
work or toil adds nothing to it.
Hard work and toil which is fatigue
in body and mind in attempting to get
ahead will not stand against the
blessing!
Mankind is forced to have to toil for
His provision because of the curse which
exists as a result of the fall of Adam &
Eve when they sinned. When Adam &
Eve fell into sin they lost 3 things.
1. They lost their RELATIONSHIP with
God.
2. They lost their ASSIGNMENT in God.
3. They lost their PROVISION in God.
Adam is now cast out of Eden which is
the Garden of Plenty. He must now wander
and survive outside of God's favour. He
must now toil to meet his needs. This is
a perfect picture of man today. Lost,
Alone & Toiling! This is the curse on
mankind.
The Bible
tells us in Galatians 3:13-14, that the
curse is broken because of what Jesus
Christ accomplished on the Cross, so
that the Blessing may take effect.
Every person who is in Covenant with God
through faith in Jesus Christ
immediately receives the blessing of
God. This blessing does 3
important things to the life of the
Born-Again Christian.
- The power to produce.
- The covenant that overrides the
curse.
- The anointing of God by which
divine favour flows.
Yes, when a person is born-again they
have their sins forgiven and they
receive eternal life with God but the
Blessing also contains many more
benefits. Hebrews 6:9 say’s that there
are ‘better things’ which accompany
salvation. Those better things pertain
to your whole life – Spirit, Soul, Body,
Relationship & Finances.
Now that the ‘Blessing’ is operating in
your life you have full access to God’s
Economy of Abundance.
Proverbs
8:17-21
I love those who love Me, and those who
seek Me diligently will find ME.
Riches and honour are with Me, enduring
riches and righteousness.
My fruit is better than gold, yes, than
fine gold. And My revenue than choice
silver.
I traverse the way of righteousness, In
the midst of the paths of justice.
That I may cause those who love Me to
inherit wealth, that I may fill their
treasuries.
Let me encourage you to become a
Covenant person with God today and allow
the promises of God’s Word to be
activated in your life.
Blessings
