We are leaving in the days when economic hardship is a common headline across media outlets. Every day seems to be bombarded with the news of the struggle of humanity due to worldwide economic challenges, resulting in escalated poverty levels. As a child of God, it is paramount that you stay focused on Jesus who is the author and finisher of your faith. Firstly, recognize that you live in two worlds and one is greater than the other. You are first in Christ and then you live in a physical world. The former is greater than the latter. In John 16:33 (NCV) the Lord gives us insight into these two worlds: “I told you these things so that you can have peace in me. In this world you will have trouble, but be brave! I have defeated the world.” He said, “In ME” then “in the world”. These are two locations, one in the spirit and one physical. In Him we have peace and that word peace comes from the Greek word eirēnē which signify quietness or the rest of prosperity. This is about you faring well in life.

God has made a provision of your prosperity in Christ. Don’t define yourself by the world’s economic systems. Our theme scripture declares: “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich”. This tells us that no child of God is poor in Christ Jesus. All you must do is learn through the scriptures how to appropriate this wealth so that you walk in its manifestation daily in this physical world. There are financial principles in God’s kingdom which you must learn and implement to experience the abundance which you have already in Christ. It doesn’t matter what your experience has been this far, embrace this truth today that you are rich in Christ. Make bold declarations that you are so rich and don’t luck any good thing. Declare that you walk in abundance of resources in Jesus name.
