Financial three step plans, money making formulas and sowing and
reaping scriptures can all be well and good, but if you have a poverty
stronghold lodged and hidden in your mind, you may never enter your
earthly wealthy place. If you feel you might have a poverty mental
stronghold keeping you from your earthly wealthy place and you want to
be set free, then this article is for you.
Gary was a Christian
who had been taught in church that it was good to worship and serve God,
but to have an abundance of "things" was not acceptable. The
"prosperity message" was taboo. However, he eventually discovered that
according to God's Word, financial prosperity was the Christian's
inheritance and we are blessed to be a blessing.
So Gary began to
implement all the prosperity truths he had learned, but instead of
getting out of debt and enjoying the abundant life, he continued to
flounder financially and stayed in debt. Fortunately, one day the Lord
revealed to him the problem. All the earlier teaching on how it was
wrong to seek prosperity had become a poverty stronghold in his mind
that kept him out of his God-ordained wealthy place. The Lord revealed
to him how to destroy that stronghold with God's mighty powerful weapon,
the Word of God.
"Is not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces" (Jeremiah 23:29)?
The
Lord's instructions were simple. To destroy the stronghold of poverty
in his mind, he was to speak three scriptures out loud four hours a day
until they dropped down into his heart and became reality. This would
set him free from the stronghold of poverty holding back his God-given
prosperity. Here are the three prosperity scriptures the Lord instructed
him to speak out loud:
"The young lions do lack, and suffer
hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing"
(Psalm 34:10). "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" (2 Corinthians 8:9). "But my God shall supply
all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus"
(Philippians 4:19).
Am I saying you must spend four hours a day
speaking out loud these promises to destroy any poverty stronghold you
might have? No. How much time you spend a day declaring these prosperity
promises is up to you. But I will say this, the more time you spend
doing it, the quicker the results.
I suggest starting out with
fifteen minutes a day and increase it to one half hour or more. Gary
said that within three weeks he noticed a difference in his life and
eventually he was free from the poverty stronghold that held him
captive. He got a revelation that God was his source and not his job,
the government or anything else.
And by the way, this three
scripture formula will work for any area of your life: healing,
confidence, deliverance from some sinful bondage, weight-loss or
whatever. Just find three scriptures that relate to your problem and
away you go.
Once you discover you can be free from a poverty
mental stronghold, it's time for you to enter God's economic system
where the cost of an item can cease to be a problem because you've
entered your wealthy place. Click on "Blessed to Be a Blessing" below.
