What does the Bible say about wealth coming to your home? Is someone getting and collecting for you this moment?

"One who increases his possessions by charging excessive interest rates and extortion gathers it for him who is kind to the poor" (Proverbs 28:8).

"A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous" (Proverbs 13:22).

You are NOT locked into your set salary. Believe what the Bible says:  Be helpful and generous to the poor and weak. It is the Lord who will reward you. (Proverbs 19:17)

 "...but to the sinner He gives the work of gathering and collecting, that he may give to him who is good before God" (Ecclesiastes 2:26).

Dear Friends, I want to encourage you to be bold as a lion and to recognize where many of your problems are coming from. Ephesians 6:12 states we are not fighting against people, but here is the list:

Evil spirits which are organized and operate in groups and ranks such as:

1. Principalities - Chief rulers of the highest order

2. Power - Authorities under chief rulers to execute their will

3. Rulers of darkness of this world - world rulers who are men

4. Wicked angels in the heavenlies

God's Good Word to You:

Remember the story from Luke 10:17-20, Jesus gave His apostles and disciples authority over all the power of the enemy. This is true and His power is greater than all satanic power, yet many Christians feel weak and helpless?

Here is the Good News: Ephesians 6:11, 13 states that Christians are to put on the whole armour of God so they can stand against the tricks of the devil. The armour is the presence of Christ filling and ruling your life.

His presence becomes operative as you receive the mighty baptism of the Holy Spirit (verse 10). Without this strength, you are very limited in your awareness of the workings of Satan given in verse 12.

Take Three BIG Steps:

Here's why many spirit filled believers miss their victory. They do not consistently use the three big steps given in verses 17 and 18.

Verse 17 says to take the helmet of deliverance and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God (your Bible). The helmet of deliverance (full salvation) gives protection over your mind.

If you don't keep the spirit of the world out of your mind you will rarely win the big battles. Your mind will be so indoctrinated with fear, worry, sin, etc. your faith level will greatly diminish.

When you are up against big problems, verse 17 says to use your scripture verses as a sword and cut the life of the enemy to pieces.

1. By applying the Word to the problem

2. By praying the Word over the problem

3. By speaking the Word to God, to the devil and to yourself

Hebrews 4:12, Proverbs 4:20-22, Joshua 1:8

The Bible states it is proper to remind God of His promises. The last step is given in verse 18 and it is so powerful and yet, neglected by many.

We are told to pray with all prayer in the Spirit. If we don't develop our relationship with our Father God and take time to know the Lord in times and seasons of prayer our miracle reports will be few.

James 4:7 gives us a great word of instruction and hope, "Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you."

Keep your mind and heart filled with the Word so you will know God always wants you to win. Remember time spent in prayer with Him keeps your armour in place!

Do you believe that prayer is a crutch? Well, I can eagerly tell you that it is. Prayer helps you to stand and to keep walking. Some people who think negatively state that only weak people pray and those who need a crutch. Is it weak to be able to come into the presence of a king? 

 

We find that God Himself installed His Son, Jesus Christ, to be King of the church (Psalm 2:6). This wonderful king invites all who are weary and overburdened to come to Him. He is not a one term king, but He is God's King, the eternal Messiah, who will reign forever and ever (Psalm 10:16, Luke 1:32,33, Revelation 11:15). 

 

He is the One who teaches us to walk without fear (Psalm 23:4). He said to the cripple, "Take up your bed and walk" (John 5:8). He is the One who said, "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid" (John 14:27).

 

I must also state that prayer is certainly much more than a crutch or just an aid. Prayer gives you the right and ability to come before God's throne. "Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need" (Hebrews 4:16).
