January 14: Prosperity Pleases Jesus
3 John 2
John 3:2
Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
Note: Isn't it interesting to know that it is God's will for His children to prosper? But have you ever wondered why you have not and you struggle so much to prosper. Have you ever heard that the devil want's human's souls? It makes perfect sense, because when he has your soul, then he has control over your prosperity, amongst other things.
Jesus gave His life to deliver us from this present evil world (Gal. 1:4 "Who gave himself {Jesus} for our sins, that he {Jesus} might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: ") and to give us an abundant life. (John 10:10 "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I {Jesus} am come that they {God's Children} might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. ".) Having walked closely with Jesus and being inspired by the Holy Spirit, John wrote that more than anything he wanted all believers to be healthy and productive. That’s what Jesus died for. He said this would happen as our souls prospered, and our souls prosper as we live in His truth.
Jesus said that if we saw Him, we saw the Father. He and the Father were in agreement about everything and were One. Therefore, it stands to reason that anyone who loved us enough to sacrifice His Son to purchase our freedom would do anything for our welfare. (Rom. 8:32 "He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?".) Yet today many people think God either delights in or is apathetic toward our poverty and sickness.
The Word of God makes it clear that your soul and the rest of your life will prosper as you open your heart to the love and provision of the Lord in every area of your life—spiritual, emotional, mental, social, and physical. Not believing this truth has caused many others to see God as only relevant to their eternal needs.
However, the Word plainly teaches that your great salvation includes so much more!
As you believe, experience, and preach a full Gospel, you will see God’s reality and power manifest in the here and now. You shouldn’t reject what Jesus died to give you for any reason. He is glorified when you let Him prosper you. (Psalm. 35:27 "Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant..)
Today give Jesus pleasure by walking in a whole new level of prosperity.
