The Tool for Worship

“…..Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.” Psalm 35:27.

 

There are two levels of pleasure God derives from our prosperity. In fact, it is God’s utmost desire that we prosper see 3John2.

God delights so much in making sure we have and enjoy prosperity, He gave us everything we need for enjoying Godly life see 2Peter 1:4.

Below are the two levels of pleasure God derives from our prosperity.

 

1. God derives pleasure in MAKING US PROSPEROUS.
2. God derives pleasure from how we DEPLOY AND USE OUR PROSPERITY.

 

Many believers today only approach God base on the first level where God is delightful in making us prosperous ignoring the part that include how this prosperity is deployed.

I know it is the Lord that gives us the ability to make wealth – but this ability is given because of the pleasurable covenant HE had with our father, His friend.

I know also the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he willingly and ungrudgingly became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. Rich unto good works, rich into the ministry of reconciliation, reconciling men back to receive the same access you have, rich unto the explansion of God’s government on the earth.

I also know that God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, this is so that you may abound to every good work.

We have many believers who are living below God’s best for them not because they don’t have the commensurate faith to receive from God but because their heart when scanned by God shows a negation, a departure from God’s desires.

In as much as God eagerly wants to release prosperity your way, He would not want to because your prosperity would bring reproach to the kingdom, your prosperity would not glorify God.

“look how prosperous Job is….. No wonder he worships you” – Job 1:9.

Change your approach to wealth and prosperity. Change it to wealth – a tool for worshipping and bringing pleasure to God and you’d see more in your life.

Make you demands for prosperity base on your desire to advance God’s government on earth. These are the types of request God is swift to answer.
