Covenant Prosperity. - Kenneth Copeland But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant. What is Gods reason for prospering His people? Is it so we can watch bigger TVs? So we can buy finer houses and more luxurious cars? Establishing Gods covenant on the earth and giving to those in need: Those are Gods purposes for prosperity! Ive had some people tell me, Well, Brother Copeland, Jesus ministry was poor and He got along just fine. Thats ridiculous. All the way through the Old Testament God promised material blessings to anyone who would walk perfectly and uprightly before Him. If God had failed to bless Jesus financially, He would have been breaking His own Word. Jesus never built a worldly empire for Himself. But that doesnt mean He was poor. It means He was the greatest giver Who ever walked the face of this earth--and its about time we started following in His footsteps. If well start giving, if well start taking care of the needs in peoples pocketbooks, well be far more likely to win their hearts. What do you think will happen to the heart of a starving nation when you bring in a 747 full of food, clothes and medical supplies to them in the Name of Jesus and His love? The hearts of those people are going to soften! Theyre going to be willing to listen to what we have to say about Jesus. Dont you ever let anyone tell you its wrong to want to prosper. Its wrong for you not to want to prosper when that prosperity can mean the difference between heaven and hell for millions of people. Forget about your own little needs. Raise your vision and set your mind on giving to meet someone elses, on establishing Gods covenant in the earth. Then stand fast in faith and get ready to enjoy the greatest prosperity youve ever known. Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 8:11-18
