Strike It Rich - “And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” The blessing of Abraham has come upon the Gentiles by Jesus Christ - HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE.” “Blessed in the city, blessed in the country. "Blessed going out, blessed coming in. "Blessed in your barns, blessed in your fields, blessed in all the works of your hands.” God already had redeemed me from the curse of poverty. My needs are met according to God’s riches in glory by Christ Jesus

“And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” - (Galatians 3:29).

One of the problems that hung around me for years was poverty. 

But I remember the day I decided I wasn’t going to be poor anymore. 

I was reading in the Word where it says that the blessing of Abraham has come upon the Gentiles by Jesus Christ (Galatians3:14).

Then I got down to verse 29 where it says, “If ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE.” 

Suddenly, the truth hit me. I got so excited I could hardly stand myself.

I turned back over to Deuteronomy 28 and line by line I read those promised blessings. 

“Blessed in the city, blessed in the country. 

"Blessed going out, blessed coming in. 

"Blessed in your barns, blessed in your fields, blessed in all the works of your hands.” 

Man, I had struck it rich!

I’d been going to school in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and I was living in a dumpy little house nobody would want to live in. 

But when I read those promises in the Word, I saw the light. 

I realized God already had redeemed me from the curse of poverty.

Well, that afternoon in my back bedroom, I took my Bible in my hand and I said: 

“I want to announce to Almighty God in heaven and to Jesus Christ of Nazareth, to all the angels of heaven, to all the demons of hell, and to anybody else who cares anything about hearing it, that from this day forward my needs are met according to God’s riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”

I told God, “I’m standing on Your Word, and I’m looking to You to take care of me. I’ll never ask a man for a dollar.”

That was many years ago and I never have. 

You know why? 

Because that decision connected me to the power of God. 

It’ll do the same for you.

God Gives You The Ability To Produce Wealth - so many people look at wealth and money as evil. Wealth and money are not evil. It is the love of money that will get you into trouble. Every good and perfect gift comes down from the Father of lights. God’s gift to produce wealth is a good and perfect gift if you realize where the gift came from and don’t get caught up in pride and greed. There is an end-time transfer of wealth into the hands of men and women of God that walk in faith and Godly wisdom

Wealth Transfer - The Wealth Of The Wicked Is Laid Up For The Just - it is laid up for the righteous. Jesus makes us righteous. God is in charge of the wealth transfer; so, we don’t go and ask the rich for money. Believe God. Faith only puts pressure on the word; we do not put pressure on people. Choose today to believe for the wealth transfer to come into your personal life. We have to actively believe God and release our faith for that wealth transfer. Jesus said, whatever you believe you receive when you pray, you receive it

The True Source of Wealth and Prosperity - the blessing of the Lord goes beyond material wealth and encompasses the richness of the soul, mind, and spirit. It is a holistic approach to prosperity that includes spiritual, emotional, and physical well-being. This aligns with the teachings of Jesus who stressed the importance of spiritual wealth over material possessions. God’s blessings are freely given to those who seek His guidance and trust in His provision
