Happy Sunday everyone,
I have looked into many people and even men of God and people have asked them what their greatest challenge had been, for the men of God, in particular, it had been financial challenges. The challenge of finance has been great for many. But my question now is, why was finance a challenge in the life of the men of God, although they later got out of it, but why does it always attack everyone? Did I say, everyone? Some people in this world have never been affected by finance, in fact, they control finance and some don’t know God. So, why were the men of God affected or why are we affected by finance, which is, having financial troubles?
There is nothing that I’ve seen that doesn’t involve money, even to the grass around you, they were not there by accident, someone planted them, and it wasn’t for free. So, the world has been shaped that even men of God say “Faith moves the heavens, while money moves the earth.” This is so wrong! Faith and not money moves only the earth, it doesn’t move the heavens, it was designed for only the earth! What we have failed to understand is that as Sons of God or one who is born of God, you answer to the one who sent you. Where many get is wrong is they say since we are Ambassadors, we are in another country, so we don’t use the currency of where we come from but the currency of the earth. And who told you money was the currency from the beginning? This is where we have often gotten it wrong.
When God created the earth, He didn’t create money to be used here, what He established as the currency was love all the while where out of it we then give, which is why I kept saying we’re to give in love which strengthens our faith. But that which we are to give is based on what was originally established and we are to give as providing by meeting people’s needs and money is not a need. Money is only given based on the low level of understanding the receiver has.
What the men of God did not understand was that in order to overcome your financial challenge you need to live and walk in the spirit and not relying on the canal mind where the money comes in. A challenge would only mean it is greater than the person you have given your life to, and God is the person who has control over our lives. We in return have received all authority over the heaven and the earth. So, since you have authority over the heaven and earth, it is just a matter of command and everything listens. The authority over the earth was what Adam before the fall possessed which Jesus displayed everywhere He went while here on earth. Adam gave his authority to the devil which was why the devil when he came to tempt Jesus said in Luke 4:6, “And the devil said to Him, “All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish.”
The devil understood the use of this power how much you that has been given a greater power of heaven and the earth. This is why we have the Holy Spirit in us because He is our direction, He is the Spirit of truth and would lead us into the will of God for our lives, which is not poverty or suffering or infirmities, but a life flowing with milk and honey full of good success, favour, superabundance, and much more all these if you heed the words of the Holy Spirit.
Do not look at money or your challenges, instead look unto Jesus who is showing you how to live a life a superabundance which was how He lived here on earth. You just have to trust God, He will never leave us nor forsake us [ref. Hebrews 13:5]. Faith and not money moves only the earth for there is no faith in heaven because why put faith in something that already evident to all.
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!
