PROSPER




 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

3 John 1:2.


The mind consist of one's will, intellect and emotions; which is the soul of man.

At salvation the spirit of man; which is also referred to as the heart gets quickened or made alive (But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible,... ) 1 Peter 3:4 

The heart is saved, the soul is not. You [we] have a duty to save our soul; and it has to be done through studying the word and meditating upon the word, that's when the transformation of mind/soul begins.

Romans 12:2 

"And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."


As you spend more time in the Word of God; like a mirror you beginning to see your true identity from it. This is the reason we are admonished to study the Word of God. Satan knows this, so he tries to keep you away from the Word, by preoccupying you with worldly activities. 


James 1:21 says, 

"Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your SOULS." 


As you see from this text, the soul isn't saved yet even though you are born again (the Apostle James wasn't talking to unbelievers in this epistle, but believers). The engrafted Word of God is powerful enough to both save your soul and give you your place in destiny.

True prosperity, is a reflection of the state of our soul, as it affect every other segment of our life. That is why the mind is the battleground of man's life. That's why the enemy works constantly trying to fill your eyes, ears and environment with corrupt worldly ideas, and we have a duty to resist and guard ourselves against them.


Jesus is Lord!

Strong 2020

Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: - 1 Corinthians 15:36 No seed that is afraid of being planted, will ever think itself qualified to ever produce more fruits, it will die alone. Every seed that must reproduce, must of a necessity go through the process of plantation, if the future is in view. It is hard, yes. But that is the only way to duplicate oneself. John 12:24 says,  "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit."  In this year 2020, if you seriously care, you need to die to self, and alive to God, in other to impact your world. Living a life of mediocre, will not benefit you, and certainly no one else around. Strong? Yes! Why not, if it will get your attention. So, no matter how you have ignored God's instructions until now, make a quality decision to realign, this new year, and start early. Happy New Year, once again...

EXIGENCY

  You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. Amos 3:2.  Ever wondered how come so and so did such and got away with it, but when you attempted it, you got cut and punished for it? There could be chances you are separated to God as a chosen vessel [not certainly, but likely]. "if yes" , as a result, you can't do what you like, only what is permitted. The society have drifted to the place where people don't talk about purpose anymore except their individualistic goals. Well, if you came from God, He already has a plan for you, it is suppose to be your primary assignment in life to discover it. Not to ignore it, in pursuit of your own self centered aspirations, it may not go down well. Some of the reasons you were probably rejected in certain areas in life is not because you aren't qualified, but because you're out of place. When God chose Abram, he didn't succeed in anything else even at 75yrs...
