Discover The Prosperity Scriptures That Can Change Your Life

By Zoe Smith


Have you ever thought about your personal prosperity in terms of how God sees it? I mean, do you think God wants you to be rich in your finances and health? Your view on this plays an integral part on how you live your life. Be at rest friend because God wants to see you walk in abundance and prosperity. The Old and New Testament in the Bible have many prosperity scriptures that attest to this fact.

Begin with the very first book in the Bible and you will find many of God's chosen people blessed and well provided for. Abraham's possessions and riches were such that he had to make a choice to separate with his nephew because they had too much cattle and herds that the land could not support both of them. Sarah, his wife was so beautiful that a king almost made her part of his harem. Did I mention she was ninety? Incredible right? That's supernatural prosperity at work.

How about Joseph? He was a dreamer scorned by his brothers and sold to slavery. When he served his master faithfully, the master's wife had him thrown to prison on wrongful charges. In prison, he still served the warden, even helping out one inmate by correctly interpreting his dream of freedom--and yet he too was forgotten by this friend. Does this sound like you? Beset by troubles, never seeing the light at the end of the tunnel? Cheer up and be faithful. God knows and He delivers. In one day Joseph went from the pit to the palace where he served as second in command to the whole of Egypt.

Hopefully, you're getting some glimmer back in your eyes. You agree that God wants to bless His people. But you argue, all those stories are centuries ago and written for His people, the Jews. If you think this has nothing to do with you, think again. Study New Testament scriptures and you will realize that the promises given to Abraham somehow made its way to you. That's right, when God said, 'I will bless you and make your name great; I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed' (Genesis 12:2-3)--it now applies to you as well. Believe it so you can walk in its reality.

People say that God espouses poverty and points to select Bible verses to prove their point. This cannot be true because there are many scriptures that show God rewarding His faithful people with prosperity and promises of abundance."Chronicles 22:13 If you obey the laws and teachings that the LORD gave Moses, you will be successful. Be strong and brave and don't get discouraged or be afraid of anything. Mark 10:29-39 'I tell you the truth', Jesus replied, 'no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields-and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life.'

Prosperity scriptures come with caution to those receivers of the promise. You need to be good stewards and not prioritize money over God and neighbor. Wise counsel that balances the desire of God for our personal abundance. Jesus said, 'The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.--It is a promise worth claiming.'
