Hmmmmm

This statement stopped me in my tracks. Gods favor CAN bring blessings and prosperity but it can also bring the blessing of dependency on walking by faith one step at a time. Think of Paul - he wasn’t wealthy when he served Jesus, but he was when he persecuted Him…

I can remember a time when I though that money could solve most of my problems. I was wrong! I needed wisdom and grace because some of those problems weren’t caused by a lack of money - their root was in evil motives.

The Gospel isn’t about prosperity, it’s about grace and about people - the good news is that we are redeemed m! Do you pray for wealth, prosperity and blessings more than you pray for God’s will, Holy Spirit, other people and Wisdom?
