God's Promises for Finances

Proverbs 11:25-26  KJV
25. The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
26. He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.
So how is your soul today? If you are a giver, the Lord promises to make your soul fat.

Romans 12:1 KJV
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
 When you are saved, you become a new creature, and the old things are passed away. There are not that many people who teach about doing away with the fleshly desires.

Galatians 2:20 KJV 
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
The blessings of God are conditional. When you obey the Lord's commandments and laws, you enter into a covenant with Him.

 The bible in basic english says:
I have been put to death on the cross with Christ; still I am living; no longer I, but Christ is living in me; and that life which I now am living in the flesh I am living by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who in love for me, gave himself up for me.

The word repent, means that you turn away from your old life, and walk straight ahead into your new one. When you ask the Lord to forgive you of your sins, He does.
2 Cor. 5:17
 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
You may look the same, have the same name, but inside you are a different person. A miracle has happened inside of your heart, and your whole life seems different. You just gave your heart to Jesus. If you don't live the life and follow His commandments, you come out from under His Divine Protection.

God's Rest

Matthew 11:28 KJV says:
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
God's rest is restoration of your soul, spirit, and body. When you are into his rest, you aren't worried about circumstances, and things in the natural. Your problems don't affect you as they once did.
Proverbs 3:5-6
5. Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
These two verses were on my mind this morning when I woke up. If you trust in the Lord with all your heart: and do not try to work your problems out with your natural mind, then you are fully trusting him.

Verse 6, in all thy ways acknowledge Him, which is putting God first in everything that you do. Make Him the head of your finances. If you have a business, let him be your CEO.

Make God your source of your total supply, and follow his commandments. When you follow what the Word tells you to do, then you enter into a covenant with Him. If God tells you to plant a seed, do it. For a seed to grow, it has to leave your hand.

You may say, "well, you don't understand what I am going through". Maybe I don't, but God does. You just have to make him number 1 in your life. You have to start looking at what His word says, and not what you see, and feel and hear.

Maybe you are afraid of your circumstances. Bind that spirit of fear and doubt and unbelief, and choose to believe what the Bible says, and not look at your circumstances.

As I am talking to you, this message is being aimed right back at me. If  I look at my circumstances, there is no way that I can pay my bills. I don't even know if I will get an unemployment check this week. I have to use my faith, and not look at the circumstances. In our natural world, there is no way that I can pay these bills. I am looking at the Supernatural God. He said that he would supply all my needs according to His riches in Glory by Christ Jesus.

I am under God's protection, because I give when he leads me to, and I also pay my tithes, according to Mal. 3:10. God said that he would open up the windows of heaven and pour me out a blessing that I wouldn't be able to receive.

God wants your all. He wants your heart. His first commandment is to not have any other Gods before Him. Make God first in your life, and follow his commandments that is established in His Work.

I am going to say a prayer for all of you who needs a miracle in your life. Follow along as I pray, and put your hands on your monitor and pray along with me.

Father, I come to you today in the name of Jesus. You see the person or person's who are reading this, and you see their need. I ask you to let them enter into a covenant of blessing from you. I ask you to meet each and every need. If they need salvation, let them confess with their mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in their heart that God raised him from the dead, your word says that they shall be saved.  Romans 10:9. If they are in need of healing, you said that healing is the children's bread, and I claim it now for them in the name of Jesus. Amen.

If you have any comments or prayer requests, I will be glad to hear them. Just post below.
