Hi everyone,
This week I’ve been writing on
the topic Harnessing His Wealth, it
is a finance series, in understanding God’s plan for your life as regards
wealth. We understand that wealth is not a do or die affair, it is something
God has given to everyone individually. We now understand that the greatest
form of wealth is the fullness of Christ Jesus whom God gave us, and anyone who
ever believes in Him and become born again into the kingdom of Jesus becomes
wealthy automatically.
I wrote that we need to be
patient and trust the map (the word/Jesus) and the Holy Spirit who leads us.
Today, I will write on the purpose of harnessing His wealth, why God wants us
to harness His wealth here on earth.
The first point I would like to
start with is to explain why we automatically become wealthy under the new
creation. The reason anyone born of Jesus is wealthy is because Jesus is
wealthy, it is that simple. The life we left had a lot of “drama” in it [if you
know what I mean], the reason why that was so is that we inherited all that
Adam became after leaving the Garden of Eden. Adam’s life rubbed off on us
because we were his offspring, and the hoarding mindset was how he lived as he
toiled to put food on the table which was different from the wonderful life he
left in the Garden of Eden. But when you become born of Jesus, the life of
Jesus becomes your life as you have His very Spirit, in other words, all that
He is, is all we become, (ref.: 1 John 4:17). And since we have His very life
in our Spirit, we can only harness this great life by our soul being renewed to
know that Jesus is now our new life, and this is done by meditating on the word
of God who tells us who we are, and the Holy Spirit interprets to us.
Now, what exactly is the reason
why we need to harness His wealth? The reason why we need to harness His wealth
is for us to understand that we are not here on earth as Sons and Daughters of
God to seek for what has been given to us already—His wealth. The essence is
for us to be focused on why we are here, the tool we find when we take our
individual path.
The truth is that if we act like
the people of the world who are eager to be rich, we will never use the tool to
fulfill our purpose here on earth, because our time is occupied with doing everything
to put food on the table, to be classy, to be rich no matter the level you want
to put it.
Jesus made us understand this
Matthew 6:33 which says, “But seek first
the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added
to you.” He said earlier in verses 31 and 32 which says, “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32For
after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that
you need all these things.” The Gentiles are the people of the world. God made
provision for everything you will ever need which is wrapped up in Christ Jesus, and it is just
for you to focus on the purpose of your calling, which was why Jesus said we
should focus on what we are born to do (that is after being born again). And as
we follow the leading of the Holy Spirit, we would find out that all we ever
need have been provided even before we got there.
And don’t think those things are
shabby, they can’t be shabby because God isn’t shabby. He provides according to
His standard which can’t be measured by human understanding.
If you are crying that nothing is
working, it is because you are not doing what He called you to do. His wealth
is being harnessed as we take the path He showed us, and we must be led by the
Holy Spirit.
God loves us so much that He has
provided for us His own wealth for us to enjoy, so why suffer in the world and
be carried away by the luxury that fades, when you can harness the wealth that can
never fade.
May the LORD bless
you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you
and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
Why not accept Jesus
today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus,
I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God
raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank
You for saving me!” Congratulations,
you’re born again, you are now brand new!
