Beloved, I say to you peace and blessing in the name of the Great and Matchless name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Matthew 6:33 (King James Version)
33But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Beloved, I realize, but importantly God realizes..that in this 'economic downturn' there are layoffs, talks of layoffs, company closings, businesses downsizing and all types of financial strain...however Beloved, God is saying this is the time to get closer to Him, to get in His face, to press forth, even if to touch the hem of His garment. Beloved, there is healing available and it isn't just for your health...But I hear Him saying that you MUST seek Him FIRST! Beloved, there are many schemes out there...you, yourself may have devised one...but as I hear the Holy Ghost of God say WHERE AM I, IN YOUR SCHEME OF THINGS?I must submit to you that this is treading very serious ground...the quicker you put...THINGS... before Him the quicker you are apt to gain the world while loosing your soul...if first and foremost your motive is to 'GET RICH'...your scheme is just that...a scheme.
A scheme is defined as an underhanded plot...if you find that; any motive you have is not glorifying God...it is an underhanded plot...a scheme...
Toby Mac, Kirk Franklin and Mandisa have a song entitled 'Lose My Soul'...in this song they are singing that they do not want to the gain the world and lose their soul...another part of the song states...The first thing to prosper should be inside of me...We're free!
Beloved, as you become free in Him...continue won't you to Seek first the kingdom AND His righteousness...Beloved, He is a man that He can not lie...if He promised you...He will fulfill...however Beloved...Seek HIM!!!!
3 John 1:2 (New King James Version)
2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.
