‘’Bare arse Theology’’ ‘’Bare arse Theology’’ Brendan Mc Crossan

Just recently I heard of a pastor teaching the prosperity gospel in his church and a lot of his congregation disagreed and left the church in large numbers. I hear he is broken, and now in need because those who tithed in his church have now left, and a large percentage of his tithers have left taking their money with them, because they don’t believe that God wants them to be wealthy, and the main reason for this is because they were brought up with the false doctrine that God wants them to be humble and of course poor. Humble to a lot of Christians means to be poor, but this is lies and deceits from the enemy who is trying to get you to believe that you should be poor.
Well let me tell you something; if you can’t afford a pair of knickers then how can you help the poor as God commanded? A bare arse cannot afford to share with someone who is worse off than you, and God said, ‘’don’t say to someone eat well and stay warm’’ and don’t help them; this is an affront to God and is shameful for you, because we are supposed to reach out and help each other, this is what God called us to do. And if ‘you have no knickers on,’

That is a terrible photo on the front of this book, but it is the only one I could find of bare arses without feeling they were either sexual or offensive. Now in the name of God what is this theology all about?; well in my city we have a saying, ‘’you can’t take the knickers off a bare arse,’’ meaning if you have debt collectors calling and you have no money, don’t worry about it for they ‘can’t take the knickers of a bare arse’ , if you have no money they can’t take it off of you.

Bare arse Theology
James 2Living Bible (TLB)
how can you share with someone else;’ to you good religious people I know that you will dislike what I have chosen as a photo, and what I also say in this little booklet. God never intended his children to be poor, that is ‘’false doctrine’’ mainly preached by the Catholic Church; though I have heard the same thing preached in born again churches of all places.
Yes indeed, it is good when you truly obey our Lord’s command, “You must love and help your neighbours just as much as you love and take care of yourself.
James 1:17King James Bible

So everything you have is a gift from God, because you could well be the knickerless person, if not for God’s blessing you. The truth is you have nothing from yourself ‘’everything is a gift to you from God,’’ but we don’t think of this we think we earned it, or worse we don’t even give this a thought at all. Yes you might have worked for it, but it was God, who gave you the job, and God expects you to share with those worse off than you; he even tells you ‘’what’s the use of saying you have faith and don’t bother to help those less fortunate.’’
James 2Living Bible (TLB)
14 Dear brothers, what’s the use of saying that you have faith and are Christians if you aren’t proving it by helping others? Will that kind of faith save anyone? 15 If you have a friend who is in need of food and clothing, 16 and you say to him, “Well, good-bye and God bless you; stay warm and eat hearty,” and then don’t give him clothes or food, what good does that do?
17 So you see, it isn’t enough just to have faith. You must also do good to prove that you have it. ‘’Faith that doesn’t show itself by good works is no faith at all’’—it is dead and useless.
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Is God serious about this? Does he really expect us to give what is our hard earned cash, to someone else who has very little? Yes he flipping well does; he gives to us so we can share with those in need, he wants you to prosper, and also to share what you have been given; for ‘every good gift comes from God;
‘
When someone preaches the full gospel of Jesus Christ they are usually given the boot by other so called Christians; for most nominal Christians, and some born again Christians don’t believe in the full gospel, and that is, Jesus took upon his body our sins when he died on that cross on Calvary, but Jesus done more than that he also took upon his body our sickness and diseases and ‘’by his stripes we are healed’’ and on the cross on Calvary he took in his body ‘not just our sins but every sickness and disease’ that is in this world and for the future diseases also and crucified them to death.
This is a gospel that is not shared too often, sure people share about Jesus healing the sick, but it is not usually shared as the complete gospel, for what is shared mostly by preachers is the salvation gospel without the healing gospel.
In going to different born again churches and one church in particular, I never ever heard the pastor say to people they need to be baptised in the Holy Spirit and to speak in tongues, sure I heard them speak now and then of tongues and pray in them and encourage people to use their gifts, but not a teaching on them and how to get them, or how awesome God’s gift of tongues is. I know this because God told me one time, ‘’you do not know the awesome power in
Jesus killed all sickness and diseases, just as he killed all sin, and people don’t like hearing this, it doesn’t sit well with them, they are filled with unbelief. It is easier to believe in salvation for you can’t see it, now healing is different you see the cripple who can’t walk, or the person who is diseased for yourself; and it is not easy to believe that God will raise them up healed and restored if you prayed for them is it? People are comfortable with the salvation gospel but it is only a half gospel, it is robbing Jesus of ‘’all’’ his ‘’glory’’ for what he done for us. So people leave when they hear something they don’t like, for example ‘prosperity,’ which is a part and parcel of the full Gospel as is other things which I will not go into in this little book.
Now in this little booklet I am sharing about the ‘’bare arse theology,’’ and not just on salvation and healing but on prosperity also. Jesus died not just to save you but to heal you and to give you his share of everything he owns, for example he ‘’joined himself with you in spirit’’ and ‘he made you holy’ just like him, and ‘’he made you righteous’’ because you belong to him; and this and other awesome things are part of the full gospel, it is the things that Jesus said and done that makes up the full gospel, not just salvation and healing. He even gave us his ‘’Holy Spirit’’ as a gift to us and if he would share his own Holy Spirit surly he would give us prosperity, for that is both worldly and heavenly gifts to us.
’’
This is all a part of the full Gospel of Christ; and not just that but there are also other awesome things so great they are hard to imagine; for instance did you know that you have been raised up to sit together with Christ Jesus in heavenly places

Christ Jesus: 7 That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
1 John 5:14-15 TLB
‘’
tongues,’’ and if God says this to me then I believe him and I try and get people saved, baptised in the Holy Spirit, and speaking in tongues, for they do not know how to pray or how to pray as they should, but the Holy Spirit prays for us with such feeling it cannot be understood in words but the father knows of course what the spirit is saying as he pleads for us in the perfect will of God.
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in

And the following scripture tells us that if we are praying in line with the perfect will of God then he will listen and answer us, so whose best praying for us?
But if we hope for what we do not yet see, we wait for it patiently. 26In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know how we ought to pray, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groans too deep for words. 27And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
Ephesians 2 4 King James Version (KJV)
Romans 8;25
And we are sure of this that he will listen to us whenever we ask him for anything in line with his will. And if we really know he is listening when we talk to him and make our requests, then we can be sure that he will answer us.
‘’
Prosperity is a part and parcel of the full gospel, it is not a separate theology, and it is a part of what Jesus shared with us the believer. For when you ‘’seek first the kingdom of God’’ ‘’all these things shall be added on to you.’’{Prosperity healing miracles signs and wonders and much more} Now many believe that the gospel ends at salvation, but the gospel is anything that God shared with you and is in his word in the ‘New Testament’.
When you read the New Testament and also the Old Testament, you read the will of God for that is what Testament means. So the will of God for you is ‘’prosperity’’ and it is throughout the ‘Old and New Testament’ that God promises to bless his people with ‘’prosperity,’’ and it is even more in effect when you become born again and have become a part of his son Jesus, for everything God gave to his son Jesus is now ours also.
If God has raised us up together with and in Christ Jesus and seated us together with him, then surly he would give us prosperity and healing for they are a greater gift than prosperity is?

I could write and write for years telling of the things Jesus done for us at salvation; and in fact I have written 305 books teaching what Jesus gave us at salvation, but I am only concentrating on two subjects in this book, ‘’healing and prosperity,’’ two things the churches hate us speaking about; and if you don’t believe that, what have you heard in your church regarding these subjects.
I spoke to a woman in the church I now go to on Sunday the 30 May and she told me she had been going to this church for seven years, and she doesn’t read her bible; another man said one night at a meeting I was attending that he was going to this same church for twelve years and he didn’t know he had to spread the gospel, all he thought he had to do was sit there and listen to the pastor and that was it; another man said he had been going to this church for three years and he didn’t know if he is saved yet?????? What the heck are they teaching in these churches, it sure isn’t the full gospel of Christ Jesus!
John 3:35 New International Version the Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands
You can ask for anything and if you believe you shall have it, it’s yours.
Exodus 11Living Bible (TLB)= 2 Tell all the men and women of Israel to ask their Egyptian neighbours for gold and silver jewellery.” 3 (For God caused the Egyptians to be very favourable to the people of Israel, and Moses was a very great man in the land of Egypt and was revered by Pharaoh’s officials and the Egyptian people alike.)
What did Jesus say about asking?

So everything on this planet now belongs to God again after the devils defeat, and has been handed back to Jesus who then shares with us everything he owned; for all that belongs to his son now belongs to us; he shared with us his
His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. 4Through these He has given us His precious and magnificent promises, so that through them you may become ‘’partakers of the divine nature,’’ now that you have escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. 5For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith virtue; and to virtue, knowledge;
These people left the slavery of Egypt rich not poor; God made the Egyptians give them their gold and silver and jewellery and clothes.
The promises of God steamed from his promise to bless his children with prosperity, and in this following scripture ‘’God’’ told Moses to tell the men and women of Israel to ask their Egyptian neighbours for their gold and silver and jewellery, and the Egyptians were so scared of what God had been doing to them they gave them everything, including clothes and other expensive things; probably hoping that the God of the Jews would spare them if they gave away all they had.

Next morning, as the disciples passed the fig tree he had cursed, they saw that it was withered from the roots! 21 Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said to the tree on the previous day and exclaimed, “Look, Teacher! The fig tree you cursed has withered!”
I remember asking God for a new fridge as we didn’t have one, so Rose and I looked at fridges in a catalogue to see what kind we would like, and Rose picked one; so I cut it out of the catalogue and stuck it in between my washing
Did Jesus just say you can ‘’ask for anything?’’ Is a new car anything? Is a new fridge anything? What about a new suite? Are bunk beds anything? Is a villa in Spain anything? God tells us to ask big, and the world says to ‘ask small,’ or don’t ask at all for you won’t get it, who are we supposed to believe? I know who I believe for those things; I said the ‘’bunk beds,’’ ‘’fridge,’’ and ‘’new suite,’’ and a ‘’car,’’ all things that Rose and I asked for over the years as young Christians who were just seeing the full gospel message for ourselves, and we stepped out in faith to ask for those things, and thanked God for before we even seen them.

The next morning as they left Bethany, he felt hungry. 13 A little way off he noticed a fig tree in full leaf, so he went over to see if he could find any figs on it. But no, there were only leaves, for it was too early in the season for fruit.
Imagine cursing the poor fig tree and it wasn’t even in season for bearing fruit; Jesus knew this of course, from being from this land, he knew the seasons for different fruit or vegetables, but he did this for a reason and the reason was to teach the apostles and us to ask God for anything and to show us later that we could curse things with a growth, things like cancer and they would die like the fig tree.
of Olives, ‘Rise up and fall
In reply Jesus said to the disciples, you only have faith in God—this is the absolute truth say Mount into All that’s required is that you really believe and have no doubt! Listen to me! You can pray for anything, and if you believe, you have it; ‘’it’s yours! But when you are praying, first forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against, so that your Father in heaven will forgive you your sins too.”
Next we asked for bunk beds and Bernard, a man that worked in our boss’s other shop, asked me, ‘do you know anyone needing bunk beds,’ and I replied, ‘’I did.’’ And he told me to come to his house the next day to collect them, and we got many years wear from them for the boys over the following years. ‘’Praise God for his love is profound.’’
After a while doing this Rose and I decided that I needed a car to be able to do these services as it was a long exhausting three hour drive for Bernard. So we sat down together and asked the lord for a new car, and Rose said, ‘’as we have to be specific, ‘’I want a red one.’’
Rose said, ‘we need one’ and so next day her mother called to say we could call down and collect it today; so of course I set off to get it and was amazed to discover that it was the same fridge in the photo I had hung up on the wall.
machine and an empty space designed for a fridge. I told our kids we got our fridge, for I wanted to teach them faith works, and they all came running down the stairs and went into the kitchen and stopped short, they turned around to me and said, ‘’dad your mad, that’s a piece of paper you stuck in that space.’’ I said, ‘’kids that’s where our new fridge will sit shortly.’’
Later on our family came home from school and I told them to go out to our kitchen to see our new fridge, I was greeted with derision, but I ordered them to go see our fridge; so reluctantly they went into the kitchen, and I heard their shout of shock and delight, then they came running in and said, ‘’it’s the same fridge as in the photo,’’ and I replied, ‘’yes God’s word says to be specific, and that’s the fridge he gave us using Deirdre’s mothers win at bingo.’’ ‘’Praise and glory to God;’’ that was just the beginning of our miracles of God’s provision.
I was doing healing services in Bernard’s house a few years later; after I got to know him, and each Tuesday night I took the train from Derry to Portstewart, and after the service was over he would run me home, an hour and a half’s drive.
A few days later our sister in law Deidre was visiting and she said to Rose, ‘’do you know anyone needing a new fridge?’’ ‘’My mother won big at bingo the other night, and she has bought a large fridge freezer and she is giving away her ‘’brand new fridge.’’
After this we had another break for a brief time and again I felt to go out to the toilet, and again for the third time I heard Bernard telling someone ‘’it’ll be ok,’’ and again thinking someone was in need of prayer I got down on my knees once again in the toilet and prayed for them. After the service was over and the Lord had healed those who came for healing, Bernard said to me as I was having a cup of tea, ‘could I go to Ballymoney, there was a woman there asking for the salvation message and the baptism in the Holy Spirit,’ and so I agreed even though it was almost one o clock in the morning.
Arriving at this lady’s home, Bernard and I went in and we were greeted by the woman’s husband and he brought us into the living room where his wife Kathy was waiting, So after introductions were over I explained about salvation and the baptism in the Holy Spirit, and she asked for both, and within a few minutes she was saved and baptised in the Holy Spirit and praying in tongues, they were flowing out of her, praise God for his love.
A few weeks later I was in Bernard’s house, and as I was going to the toilet before the meeting started, I heard him talking to someone on the phone, and I heard him say just, ‘’keep trusting the lord.’’ Thinking this was someone in need; as soon as I entered the toilet I got down on my knees, and began praying for the person on the phone, then finished praying and went into the room full of people needing healing, and as I normally done I preached on salvation first, so they could receive eternal life. Then the phone rang again and Bernard went out to answer it, and again I felt to go to the toilet while we were waiting on Bernard coming back, and as I passed by I again overheard him saying, ‘’just go back and believe God,’’ so again thinking this was someone in desperate need I again got down on my knees and prayed for them. Then I went back in again to the room, and I then preached on the baptism in the Holy Spirit and asked if they would like to receive him, and they all said ‘yes,’ so praying with them as I told them to, they all began praying in tongues as the Holy Spirit gave them utterance.
A few minutes later after it was over we were having a cup of tea, I heard the birds singing and peering out the closed curtains I saw that it was daylight and no one had a watch on them, not even a clock in the room to check the time, but I knew it was around six o clock in the morning as it was winter and daylight didn’t happen till approximately six. I said I had better go, and I was going out the front door, when Johnny, the man who had asked us to come to his home for Kathy his sister said, ‘could I wait a minute,’ and went back inside
and appeared a few minutes later and handed me a set of car keys, and I wondered what was going on.
I whispered to Bernard what’s going on and he replied, ‘’I think he is loaning you a car.’’ Then Johnny excused himself again and asked us to wait another minute and he came back with a car tax book in his hand and handed it to me, and said, ‘it isn’t insured so drive it easy till I get it insured the next day.’ I was in confusion and now tired, so he stepped outside and showed me this dirt covered orange car sitting in the car park parked under a coloured street light, and said, ‘’there it is.’’
Making my way with Bernard over to the car, I was as I said, in confusion, asking ‘’why did he give me the tax book, did he want me to tax the car, and how long did I have a loan of it for?’’ Bernard shrugged his shoulders and said, ‘’I don’t know, and drive safely home,’’ and I got into the car and drove to Derry cautiously. Getting into bed I told Rose I had got a loan of a car, and she jumped out of bed and looked out the window and said to me ‘’No! You didn’t get a loan of it, it’s ours.’’
Later on that day I phoned Johnny to ask him about the car and its insurance, and how long did I have a loan of the car for? Johnny replied, ‘’I have you insured in my company insurance for a month that will help you get it sorted out for you for a while till until you get your own insurance.’ I was still bewildered and asked again how long did he loan me the car for, and he said, ‘’we didn’t loan you the car we gave it to you.’’ I was stunned and could hardly speak and blurted out an apology for asking about the insurance, and thinking he wanted me to tax it also. Keeping apologising to Johnny I finally prised myself off the phone my face as red as a beetroot from embarrassment for having him insure the car, and it was just as well he did for we didn’t have the money to; God is so good.
The following week I found out from Bernard that the person on the phone was Jacqui, Johnny’s wife. He explained to me that as Jacqui and Johnny were driving past this lane ‘God spoke to them,’ and said, to ‘go and buy me this car’ they saw sitting in the lane, and they had never experienced God speaking to them before, and he spoke to them both at the same time. So they driving up the lane they got out and talked to the owner and the owner told them he was just possibly selling the car to a man who was standing there and the man got into the car to give it a test drive.
I didn’t know that this was Johnny and Jacqui on the phone talking to Bernard about the car, telling him what was happening about it, and there I was getting down on my knees praying for the car they were buying for me; God is amazing, his ways are not our ways; he had me praying for the very car we asked him for; and I found out that next morning that the car tax book said it was called ‘’Henna red,’’ the colour Rose asked for; and was not orange as I thought it was, just the street lighting that made it look that colour.
‘’You can ask God for anything and if you ‘believe’ you have it, it’s yours;’’ well we asked for a car and we got the very colour of a car Rose asked for. Don’t listen to those who say you can’t ask God for worldly things. Everything we need is in this world, unless it’s a supernatural spiritual need.
A little later as I was again having a break so people could go to the toilet I went out and as I was walking through the hall and again I heard Bernard speaking to someone on the phone, assuring them to ‘stand their ground’ and to ‘praise and thank God,’ and for some reason or other I again, for the third time that night I got down on my knees and prayed sincerely for this persons needs.
Johnny and Jacqui felt to go back and see the owner again, and to their surprise the car was back again, so they thought ‘good let’s buy it,’ but another man had got there before them and was taking it for a drive to show his wife to see if she would like it.
Four A new suite!
Disappointed they returned home and again phoned Bernard asking what to do, and just at that I was again making a toilet break, and hearing Bernard talking to someone else on the phone and assuring them it would be ok, I once again got down on my knees and began praying for this persons needs.
And in the meantime Jacqui phoned Bernard asking what should they do as they never heard God speak before, and I heard Bernard and someone on the phone speaking and Bernard advising them to trust the lord, and it was just after this that I got down on my knees in the toilet.
19 And it is he who will supply all your needs from his riches in glory because of what Christ Jesus has done for us. 20 Now unto God our Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.
1 Timothy 6:10 Amplified Bible
For the love of money [that is, the greedy desire for it and the willingness to gain it unethically] is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves [through and through] with many sorrows. You can want money to feel secure in your everyday things paying all your debts; as long as your heart is on Jesus, and to be able to live the life that God’s word says he wants you to live, and that is a ‘prosperous life,’ for God says in Jeremiah he knows the plans he has for you and me, his children.
Rose decided to cut our living room in half and put in a small suite so the kids growing up could bring their boyfriends home and sit in this room, so knowing they were safe and in the house we began praying for a small suite, and it wasn’t long before God answered our prayers, and I was working in a furniture shop when the Boss said to me, ‘’do you know anyone needing a small suite,’’ and again I said, ‘’I do.’’ So I called to his house where he had this small green two seater suite, and I got it into my van and took it home and put it into the new room where it just fitted perfectly. ‘’Praise the lord for he supplied our need’’ just as he said in Philippians.
Philippians 4Living Bible (TLB)
God says in this scripture that he will supply ‘’all’’ our needs from his riches in glory because of what Jesus done for us. Now God says he will supply ‘’all’’ not some of our needs, like some people believe he will not supply money. This scripture follows up by saying now unto God be glory forever and ever amen, why does it say this, well it is because he supplies ‘’all’’ your need whatever his children need, he is not selective in answering our prayers for money or things we need; he says he will supply ‘’all’’ your needs whatsoever they are.
I have heard negative people saying God does not give us money or prosperity for Jesus preached against money. Scripture says, ‘’the love of money is the root of all evil,’’ it does ‘not say money is the root of all evil,’ it is loving and being obsessed and caught up in money that has its roots in evil, greed takes over men’s hearts, and usually makes them selfish wanting more and more.
“If they listen and obey him, then they will be blessed with ‘’prosperity’’ throughout their lives; 12 If they won’t listen to him, they shall perish in battle and die because of their lack of good sense. 13 But the godless reap his anger. They do not even return to him when he punishes them. 14 They die young after lives of dissipation and depravity. 15 He delivers by distress! This makes them listen to him!
I have heard this scripture quoted thousands of time by Bible scholars and by preachers telling God’s children that ‘’God has plans for them,’’ and they all quote this scripture; but I know some negative Bible theologians who would say that God only meant this for Jeremiah and the Jewish slaves and not for everyone of God’s children; in other words God only had plans for Jeremiah and the Jews and not for any other of his children. What kind of God would he be if he only meant this for Jeremiah or the Jews? What kind of a father would this make him? A selective one, a selfish one, having favourites; well scripture tells us that God does not have favourites so this scripture is for all God’s children.

Jeremiah 29:11-New International Version
5 “God is almighty and yet does not despise anyone! And he is perfect in his understanding. 6 He does not reward the wicked with his blessings, but gives them their full share of punishment. 7 He does not ignore the ‘’good men’’ but honours them by placing them upon eternal, kingly thrones. 8 If troubles come upon them and they are enslaved and afflicted, 9 then he takes the trouble to point out to them the reason, what they have done that is wrong, or how they have behaved proudly. 10 He helps them hear his instruction to turn away from their sin.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to ‘’prosper’’ you’’ and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Job 36-2-Living Bible (TLB)

36 Elihu continued:
“How he wanted to lure you away from danger into a wide and pleasant valley; and to ‘’prosper’’ you’’ there,’ 17 But you are too preoccupied with your imagined grievances against others.
2 “Let me go on and I will show you the truth of what I am saying. For I have not finished defending God! 3 I will give you many illustrations of the righteousness of my Maker. 4 I am telling you the honest truth, for I am a man of well-rounded knowledge.
In this scripture God is saying to ‘’good men,’’ that he does not ignore them but puts them on ‘’eternal kingly thrones,’’ {not earthly ones} and if they listen to him they will be blessed with ‘’prosperity;’’ prosperity meaning, ‘’wealth, affluence, riches, lavishness, success,’’ prosper means, ‘’to make money, show a profit, thrive, flourish, ‘Keep these things in mind as you go through this book.
I know that negative people say, God will not give us money for Jesus was against it, but Jesus would never, never contradict the word of the Father would he? So if he is saying anything about money he was giving a lesson on it. I know born again millionaires who have given away half of their fortune; I know born again wealthy people who constantly help the poor, and share with those in need. I know of other born again people who are well off who help the church financially; it is the ‘love of money for greed’s sake that is the root of all evil,’ not money itself. Money is the plan of God for all of his children.
Look at Jesus for instance, was Jesus poor? No! When he needed money to pay his taxes what did he do, he sent Peter fishing. Jesus produced money from a fishes mouth, isn’t this a strange way to supernaturally get it; {I could preach a great sermon on this scripture alone} Jesus was a carpenter and worked for his dad, up until he started his ministry and he earned money to support his mum, for that was the tradition in Israel at the time and it is still the same today in their culture; he must have had money from his carpentry work. But Jesus operated in the supernatural here to get the money they needed; he got it from a fish’s mouth, and this had to be a ‘’supernatural supply of cash’’ when Jesus needed it.
I got money from God through supernatural means, he transported my van twelve miles because we were late to play music at a wedding; Jesus loves weddings, and I needed money and had ‘’asked God for twenty pounds’’ and this band gave me twenty-five pounds for the job, five for petrol and twenty for the job, this is a long great supernatural story but I have shortened it. There is not too many who talk about the way Jesus got money; I have never heard a sermon on how did Jesus survive in a money orientated world. In this scripture God miraculous provided for Jesus; you don’t send your kids down to the river
Entering the house where the baby and Mary, his mother, were, they threw themselves down before him, worshiping. Then they opened their presents and gave him gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
11
On their arrival in Capernaum, the Temple tax collectors came to Peter and asked him, “Doesn’t your master pay taxes?” 25 “Of course he does,” Peter replied. [Jesus must have paid taxes before, for the Romans taxed the Jews for everything. ‘My words’} Then he went into the house to talk to Jesus about it, but before he had a chance to speak, Jesus asked him, “What do you think, Peter? Do kings levy assessments against their own people or against conquered foreigners?” 26 27 “Against the foreigners,” Peter replied. “Well, then,” Jesus said, “the citizens are free! However, we don’t want to offend them, so go down to the shore and throw in a line, and open the mouth of the first ‘fish’ you catch. You will find a coin to cover the taxes for both of us; take it and pay them.”
God supernaturally supplied for Jesus and his word says he loves us just the same as he does Jesus. I have never caught a fish with money in its mouth when I went fishing, and I needed money; to tell the truth I was a lousy fisherman, I enjoyed the day out on a riverbank with my sons.
and expect them to catch a fish with just the exact amount of money you need do you?
In days of old if you went to see a king you brought with you gold, jewels, and other expensive gifts, you did not bring a little bracelet or some small taste of perfume or spices, you brought with you expensive and costly gifts, for you did not wish to offend the king with a miserable amount. Now it does not say how much these men brought with them, but we can rest assured it wasn’t a small amount, there was enough gold, frankincense, and myrrh to keep Mary and Joseph and Jesus going for quite a while, and beside all that, Joseph was a carpenter, a good job in those days seeing there were no IT experts around,
Matthew 17Living Bible (TLB)
Now I am about to give you another two examples of God’s supply for his son Jesus; one as a baby, and two, by the women who followed his ministry supplying his needs and those of the apostles.
Five Matthew 2Living Bible (TLB)
24
Is it any harder to believe that God would give us a mansion in heaven; than to believe that he would give us one on earth? It is the love of money that corrupts; it is not wealth that corrupts otherwise God would never have said that he would give his people prosperity. Look at the rich man, how did he measure up to prosperity? Sadly bad
Luke 8:3The Voice (VOICE)
In my Father's house is many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
King James Version
and the main type of work was joinery, metal work and stone work, plus other types of work, but no car mechanics, only wooden carriages and chariots.
The other suppliers of Jesus needs were the women who went around with him.
So you see Jesus had his needs provided for him by those women who followed him around looking after ‘’his financial needs,’’ and those of his apostles, and there were twelve of them, and at one time seventy of his followers, but a bunch left when the gospel he was teaching didn’t agree with their theology, just like today when theologians don’t believe that God gives us prosperity, they would rather sit in a wooden hut than in a mansion provided for by the Father; remember Jesus said that ‘’God has provided a ‘mansion’ not a wooden shed for them in heaven.
When I first discovered that scripture says that God makes us prosperous, I shared this with my brother in law who was going to the same prayer meetings as me, and he said he would rather sit on a soap box rather than ask God for money or things; he did and I asked and received those things from God that I shared with you, praise the lord for he is good! He actually sat on a soap box for a long time.
3 There were others like Susanna and Joanna, who was married to Chuza, a steward of King Herod. And there were many others too. These women played an important role in Jesus’ ministry, using ‘’their wealth’’ to ‘provide for Him’ and ‘his other companions.’’

*{they must have thought that only rich men got into heaven before they met Jesus, my words}*
Then the man’s face fell, and he went sadly away, for he was very rich.
As he was starting out on a trip, a man came running to him and knelt down and asked, “Good Teacher, what must I do to get to heaven?”
Six The rich man Mark 10-17-Living Bible (TLB)
26
24
The disciples were incredulous! “Then who in the world can be saved, if not a rich man?” they asked.
Jesus felt genuine love for this man as he looked at him. “You lack only one thing” he told him; “go and sell all you have and give the money to the poor—and ‘’you shall have treasure in heaven’’—and come, follow me.”
Then Peter began to mention all that he and the other disciples had left behind. “We’ve given up everything to follow you,” he said.

28
“Teacher,” the man replied, “I’ve never once broken a single one of those laws.”

“Why do you call me good?” Jesus asked. “Only God is truly good! 19 But as for your question you know the commandments: don’t kill, don’t commit adultery, don’t steal, don’t lie, don’t cheat, respect your father and mother.”
23
This amazed them. So Jesus said it again: “Dear children, how hard it is for those who ‘’trust in riches’’ to enter the Kingdom of God.25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.”
22
Jesus watched him go, then turned around and said to his disciples, “It’s almost impossible for the rich to get into the Kingdom of God!”
Jesus looked at them intently, then said, “Without God, it is utterly impossible. But with God everything is possible.”
Or the man who built bigger barns, both of these men trusted in their money, their wealth.
And Jesus replied, “Let me assure you that no one has ever given up anything—home, brothers, sisters, mother, father, children, or property—for love of me and to tell others the Good News,30 who won’t be given back, a hundred times over, homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land—with persecutions!
{I James 1:17 says: "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with who is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."}
The second thing I wish to show you is this- {23 Jesus watched him go, then turned around and said to his disciples, “It’s almost impossible for the rich to get into the Kingdom of God!”}
And sad to say few even realise this. ‘’God gives every good gift and blessing to those whom he chooses to bless for whatever reason,’’ and it is usually so that, those being blessed can bless others in return.’’ I have seen or heard of very few of these winners giving money away to others in need; praise God there are a few who have done that and they are blessed in return by God for doing as he desires, and you hear of others who have squandered theirs like the prodigal son, on wine women and song as the saying goes. And the next thing is a year later they are busted, I have read in the newspapers of those who have done these things and before even a year is up they have
Jesus did not say, ‘’it is impossible’’ for the rich to get into heaven but ‘’it’s almost impossible’’ for the rich to get into heaven, for the majority of them trust in their wealth because they believe they achieved it by themselves
There are a few things I’d like to point out in this scripture; the first is that ‘’this man trusted in his wealth,’’ and Jesus knew this, and he wanted to teach him to ‘’trust in him’’ not in money for wealth won’t save you, it’ll buy whatever you desire, but not happiness or security for salvation.{ 21 Jesus felt genuine love for this man as he looked at him. “You lack only one thing” he told him; “go and sell all you have and give the money to the poor—and you shall have treasure in heaven—and come, follow me.” 22 Then the man’s face fell, and he went sadly away, for he was very rich.}
In today’s world there is a lottery, and it makes millionaires of ordinary people and the rich alike for it is a game of chance, but according to the bible it is ‘’a gift from God’’
“All these will be his here on earth, ‘’and’’ in the world to come he shall have eternal life. 31 But many people who seem to be important now will be the least important then; and many who are considered least here shall be greatest there.”
As for the apostles they themselves did not get this earthly wealth, but they got eternal wealth; but for others Jesus said, ‘’let me assure you,’’== {Deuteronomy 8 6}
29 And Jesus replied, “Let me assure you that no one has ever given up anything home, brothers, sisters, mother, father, children, or property—for love of me and to tell others the Good News,30 who won’t be given back, a hundred times over, homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land with persecutions!
Jesus said that anyone who has given up anything for love of him and tells others the good news, will be given back a ‘’hundred times over’’ ‘’everything they gave up,’’ and sadly persecutions come to the followers of Jesus, for this world hates them, and their master Satan hates them with an evil desire to see harm come to them. But if we aren’t supposed to have prosperity why then does God give back a hundred times over what you gave up for him?
As I said, as for the apostles, they themselves did not get this earthly wealth, but they got eternal wealth in heaven with the lord. If you read the book of Hebrews you will also see many great people of faith didn’t get what they wanted.
Hebrews 11 1Living Bible (TLB)
squandered millions; they did not bless others as God wanted them to do, for he was teaching them a lesson just as he taught the Jews who wandered around in the desert to follow him.
8 Abraham trusted God, and when God told him to leave home and go far away to another land that he promised to give him, Abraham obeyed. Away he went, not even knowing where he was going. 9 And even when he reached God’s Promised Land, he lived in tents like a mere visitor as did Isaac and Jacob, to whom God gave the same promise. 10 Abraham did this because he was confidently waiting for God to bring him to that strong heavenly city whose designer and builder is God.
1 What is faith? It is the confident assurance that something we want is going to happen. It is the certainty that what we hope for is waiting for us, even though we cannot see it up ahead. 2 Men of God in days of old were famous for their faith.
The man who built bigger barns
“But God said to him, ‘Fool! Tonight you die. Then who will get it all?’
“Yes, every man is a fool who gets rich on earth but not in heaven.”
Then turning to his disciples he said, “Don’t worry about whether you have enough food to eat or clothes to wear.23 For life consists of far more than food and clothes.24 Look at the ravens they don’t plant or harvest or have barns to store away their food, and yet they get along all right—for God feeds them. And ‘’you’’ are far more ‘’valuable’’ to him than any birds!
Luke 12Living Bible (TLB)

But Jesus replied, “Man, who made me a judge over you to decide such things as that?15 Beware! Don’t always be wishing for what you don’t have. For real life and real living are not related to how rich we are.”
13
21
These men of faith I have mentioned died without ever receiving all that God had promised them; but they saw it all awaiting them on ahead and were glad, for they agreed that this earth was not their real home but that they were just strangers visiting down here. 14 And quite obviously when they talked like that, they were looking forward to their real home in heaven.
16
20
Then he gave an illustration: “A rich man had a fertile farm that produced fine crops. 17 In fact, his barns were full to overflowing—he couldn’t get everything in. He thought about his problem,18 and finally exclaimed, ‘I know I’ll tear down my barns and build bigger ones! Then I’ll have room enough. 19 And I’ll sit back and say to myself, “Friend, you have enough stored away for years to come. Now take it easy Wine, women, and song for you!”’

Sarah, too, had faith, and because of this she was able to become a mother in spite of her old age, for she realized that God, who gave her his promise, would certainly do what he said.
Then someone called from the crowd, “Sir, please tell my brother to divide my father’s estate with me.”
Those who trust in their wealth instead of trusting in God perish; those who trust in God are blessed with prosperity.

“And besides, what’s the use of worrying? What good does it do? Will it add a single day to your life? Of course not!26 And if worry can’t even do such little things as that, what’s the use of worrying over bigger things?

Did you ever think that you will have treasure in heaven when you get there, but that is exactly what this and other scriptures say, your treasure there will never disappear; and giving away to help the less fortunate fattens your heavenly purses; is your purse empty you doubter? It gives God great happiness to give you the kingdom and you have that when you have Jesus. Giving us prosperity here on earth and in heaven afterwards is awesome; God is love, and he loves us all equally he sees no difference between us and his son Jesus, it is the devil who tries to make a difference between us, to make us feel less of a son or daughter, not as good as Jesus, yet God gave us equality with his son Jesus by joining us to him in spirit. That is the love of God in a nutshell, he gave us ‘’right standing with him’’ and ‘’declared us righteous’’ and making us ‘’holy.’’ Which is greater, ‘’making us righteous’’ or ‘’making us rich?’’ I believe that righteousness is greater by far, and money is way down on God list or the things he gives us; for his word says he gave us great and precious promises.
“Look at the lilies! They don’t toil and spin, and yet Solomon in all his glory was not robed as well as they are.28 And if God provides clothing for the flowers that are here today and gone tomorrow, don’t you suppose that he will provide clothing for you, you doubters?29 And don’t worry about food what to eat and drink; don’t worry at all that God will provide it for you. 30 All mankind scratches for its daily bread, but your heavenly Father knows your needs. 31 He will always give you all you need from day to day if you will ‘’make the ‘’Kingdom’’ of God your primary concern.’’
I know that doubters will always try and say God is a miserable tight fisted God, and he does not want to give his children money or make them prosperous, and I know that no matter how many scriptures that I show about God’s blessing us with prosperity, they will always find a different scriptures to say something different, or twist that scripture around to say something seemingly different, but for those who believe God’s word, then they should

“So don’t be afraid, little flock. For it gives your Father ‘’great happiness’’ to give you the Kingdom. 33 Sell what you have and give to those in need. This will fatten your ‘’purses’’ ‘’in heaven!’’ And the ‘’purses of heaven’’ have no rips or holes in them. Your treasures there will never disappear; no thief can steal them; no moth can destroy them.34 wherever your treasure is, there your heart and thoughts will also be.

the opposite of ‘good’ is ‘poor’ and
Matthew 7:11 Amplified Bible
-----------------------------------Advantageous, meaning valuable, beneficial, profitable; Good, = meaning - high-quality, good quality, first-class, superior, excellent, outstanding, the opposite of good is ‘’poor.’’
poor means. Poor, ‘’deprived,’’ ‘’unfortunate,’’ ‘’underprivileged,’’ ‘’meagre,’’ ‘’pitiable,’’ ‘’broke’’
Here is a question for doubters; would God withhold prosperity from Jesus his son or would he give him anything he asked for because he is his son? Then does God not call those who are born again ‘’his children,’’ ‘’son’s and daughter’s?’’ Then what’s the difference between us, for God gave us equal position in Christ Jesus. God calls himself a father to us, and would a father who loves us not give us what we ask for; I know I gave my children what they asked for growing up if I or we could afford it.
let God bless them with prosperity like he wants to, and ask God for his provisions for it pleases God to give us things. The main thing is that you ‘’don’t want an abundance of money for what it can just get you,’’ but to help yourself and your needs, and also to help others in need less fortunate than you.
Remember the love of money is the root of all evil, money in itself is not evil, for money makes the world go around as the old saying goes, you need money to buy things people make and charge for; people who supply the things you need, they also need money to make more and so it goes on and on.

I have lived with this all my life since the day I was born again almost forty years ago; people trying to do away with the love and goodness of God because they themselves have no faith in his divine word attacked me verbally. I say a shame on them for they are doubters filling others minds with their wrong doctrine, trying to minimise the wonder of God’s enormous love for us.
2 Corinthians 1:19 Living Bible
God’s word will always prove true, no matter what he says, he will fulfil his word for it does not go out of his mouth without returning to him having completed its task on this earth. If God says he wants to make us prosperous ‘’how dare we question him,’’ or ‘’contradict him; ’’ poverty preachers are not from God; neither are those who say we must be humble living in poverty in barely get along street. What an insult to God to try and contradict him in what he delights in saying to us his own children.
If we lived in their doctrine we would turn away from what they show is a miserable, useless, worthless God, and equally useless children who should
Isn’t it strange that the dictionary meaning, the opposite of ‘good’ is ‘poor,’ not bad? God chooses his words wisely, he never says anything he does not mean; scripture says.

Timothy and Silvanus and I have been telling you about Jesus Christ the Son of God. He isn’t one to say ‘’yes’’ when he means ‘’no.’’ He ‘’always does ‘exactly’ what he says.’’
I personally get irritated with those who constantly try and contradict what God says in his word by trying to give different scriptures to try and explain away the goodness of God.
‘’
They were promised nothing when they served the devil except ‘’sin, sickness and disease and poverty’’ and now this Christian God says he wants to bless his children and lies about it because in truth he gives them the same as the devil does according to their ‘’bare arse theology; ’’ saying he didn’t take their sickness and diseases and ‘’by his stripes we were healed’’ meaning it’s already done on the cross, they would have you believe that ‘’Jesus only paid for our sins, ’’ if that is all he done, then why did Jesus suffer terrible suffering through being lashed to within a hairs breath of his life, and not a piece of his poor flesh escaped their brutal lashes. Why, why suffer all that, which was worse than crucifixion in itself. These unbelievers would have you believe that all Jesus did was take away your sins because they have sickness in their bodies, and the laughable thing was those who persecuted me all my life were those who had an illness or deformity, nothing changed for me except the people. This is why I call this book ‘’bare arse theology’’ they have ‘’nothing on,’’ that will help us to believe the gospel, they just have a bare arse way of thinking, and really who wants the bare arsed God they serve, they offer nothing positive.
Jesus took our sickness and bore all our diseases and he crucified them on his cross along with our sins’’ otherwise why did he suffer the scourging at the pillar, what was all that for? ‘’Our disease are dead, ’’ they died with Jesus just as our sins died, but it only true for those who accept his offering, those who ‘’accept his offering of salvation’’ are born again, saved, those who ‘’accept his offer of healing’’ are ‘’already healed.’’
have stayed in this world instead of becoming God’s own children, how better off are they now?
Now we know that sin is in this world though it has already been paid for, and we know that sickness and disease is in this world even though it was paid for by Jesus, but salvation is given to those who ‘’believe’’ in what Jesus done for them and healing is also for those who ‘’believe’’ he also took their sickness and disease on to his divine body, and the same is true of ‘’poverty’’ and ‘’prosperity’’ it is given to those who ‘’believe’’ God and in his promises; sin,
1 Peter 2:24Amplified Bible (AMP)
If you are on medication keep taking your medication until your faith grows strong enough to stand on the word alone; don’t be a fool, unless your faith is the faith that will move mountains stay on your medication, and ‘’keep proclaiming that Jesus took my sickness and bore all of my diseases,’’ proclaiming his divine word until it gets down into your spirit; for by ‘’believing with the mind alone it will not work,’’ it is faith in the living word of our loving God that brings about revelation to your spirit so keep proclaiming the divine word, for scripture tells us, ‘’the word of God will never return to him, null and void,’’ and his ‘’word is the words in the bible.’’
1 Peter 2 24 says he took our sins and sickness in his body
Healing is already accomplished for us by Jesus, and we Christians should fight with the enemy who would have us accept sickness and disease or deformity and serious illness. We are already healed, we just don’t realise this and when we do, we resist the devils lies and fight for our manifestation of our healing; You may be suffering from an illness right now and you may not have known the full gospel that Jesus took your sickness and diseases but now you can do something about it; you can stand your ground against the enemy, you can do as Jesus said to do, ‘’resist the devil and he will flee from you in terror James 47. And if you are a born again Christian you have already done the first part of this scripture, submit yourself to God, then resist the devil and he will flee from you, in terror, amplified version.
Your angel brings the healing Jesus acquired to you, and he has to fight his way past the kings and princes of the air to get to us with our healing, check out Daniels story= Daniel 10 King James Version
He personally carried our sins in His body on the cross [willingly offering Himself on it, as on an altar of sacrifice], so that we might die to sin [becoming immune from the penalty and power of sin] and live for righteousness; for by His ‘’wounds’’ you [who believe] ‘’have been healed.’’
24
sickness and disease, and poverty are still in this world even though Jesus paid the full price for all of it, but it is only for those who chose to ‘’believe’’ God’s word.
HAVE MEANS SOMETHING IS PAST TENSE, IT IS DONE, IT IS FINISHED.
He suffered this terrible suffering with the cat of nine tails, each strand tearing into his flesh, ripping out nine different pieces of flesh at the same time to maximise the pain levels. Do you not understand how much he suffered, accepting this unbelievable pain, that cat of nine tails got into every crevice, including his private parts, and ripped out his flesh, and it was all for us; and ‘you’ cannot believe that it was all done regarding your sickness and disease when he included ‘’all ‘our’ sins’’ which you cannot see, but his wounds you can see; and they both were on his body as he said, ‘’it is finished,’’ sin has been paid for, diseases have been paid for, and poverty was also paid for, it was a part of the blessings when he arose and ‘’by his wounds we ‘’have’’ ‘’been healed.’’
As his flesh was being torn out God inserted into his wounds the worlds different sickness and diseases; from the beginning of time to the end of time,
Well every nerve in his body was either ripped out or left exposed to further lashes. His nerves were busted and his flesh was hanging from his wounds, and you say he didn’t heal you at the moment of salvation, that all this terrible suffering was in vain and nothing to do with the full gospel of Jesus Christ, he only done a half job you are declaring, you unbeliever.
It was here he offered your sin, sickness and diseases to God as an offering to him, that were etched deep into his bleeding body and as each lash tore out his flesh leaving his nerves open and exposed; {imaging what it’s like having a toothache, and you know the nerve is exposed to the air, and that causes a terrible pain that can drive people to do some terrible things;}
Now in case those who preach this ‘’false doctrine’’ saying ‘’healing wasn’t paid for on the cross in Jesus body’’ here is the King James Version that most of them favour; ‘’Salvation and healing’’ are ‘’one and the same;’ in this scripture both are included because ‘’Jesus bore the marks’’ of his suffering’’ on his torn and bleeding and ravaged body. His wounds were visible for all there to see. ‘’When he was beaten he took your sins into his own body and your diseases at the same time.’’ As I said before, he bore ‘’both’’ suffering in his body for our sins and healing.
Every human being on this planet has ‘’already been healed;’’ for when Jesus died on that cross he took ‘’our’’ sins, ‘’our’’ ‘’sickness and diseases,’’ and it is because sickness is still in this world that Christians think Jesus didn’t mean he took ‘’your’ ‘diseases,’’ and so disease in you is dead, but you don’t believe the word of God and you end up sick.
every disease has been paid for, and when he said; ‘’it is finished’’ it was not just for sin as some believe but for diseases also.
What about those who were born with a disease or deformity? Is it the devils fault? Yes it most certainly is; ‘’sickness and disease are not of God.’’
Sickness is a deception from the devil, he gets us to accept it, to give thought to the pain we feel somewhere, and the mind accepts an evil spirits deception, and what we think may be wrong with us, instead of us saying to the mind and spirit, ‘’I rebuke you’’ for ‘’It is finished,’’ ‘’I am healed’’ for disease you are dead, but they suggest to us a pain, and then a disease, and so we get it, it is just like sin he gets us to ‘’think about it first,’’ then ‘he gets you to do it.’ He suggests to you, that your sick, for sickness starts with a small beginning, and when we accept it, it grows; have you ever heard people saying, ‘’I think I’m taking a flu,’’ and the next thing is they have it full bloom, they got what the said, the agreed with the spirit and then that gave them the right to place disease on us.
Jesus paid the price for your salvation and he paid the price for your healing; he paid the price two thousand years ago for your diseases that you now have, give it back to him, it’s on his body, he paid for your disease, give it to him; he paid for it on the cross of Calvary and at the scourging at the cross; he paid it
Remember that Jesus said, ‘’he is the thief who comes to steal, kill and destroy; ‘’I came so that they may have life and life to the full.’’ is deformity living life to the full, is some poor being born with terrible bodily deformity a gift from God as some poor mothers and fathers have been told by unbelievers. Jesus is not a thief or tells lies, so if he said the devil is the one who does these things not him, then its time you said sorry for blaming him and get angry at the thief and rebuke him off of you or yours.
John 10:10-Amplified Bible-The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].
We have the power to refuse to sin or to refuse diseases; we are joined together with Jesus in spirit as a ‘’new creation’’ a ‘’new ‘creature’ without sin or disease in it.’’ There is a constant battle between us and the enemy who are trying to ‘’steal kill and destroy you.’’
two thousand years ago; and the payment comes into effect when you realise that he has paid for your salvation and healing, and it is for you now today that the payment was made. It’s like me booking a ticket for the fire conference in London in November, I paid for the ticket, but I won’t redeem it until November, 17 18th. The deal has been done I paid the money for it and the ticket is guaranteed just like your healing is guaranteed. Jesus purchased your healing and salvation and it is now ‘’today,’’ that you need to redeem your ticket.
This book is about the precious promises of God and if you can’t believe in who you are, then you can’t believe that you are already healed from the moment you accepted Jesus as your lord and saviour. Sickness and disease does not have the right to your spirit and scripture tells us that the battle is in
Sin is still in this world but for the believer those whom Jesus died for those who accept all that he did was for them, they have redemption from sin and redemption from disease also, the two are one and the same.
Is sin really still in this world? Yes it is everywhere around you, and even in you, but Jesus killed sin on the cross didn’t he? So how is sin still in this world and how is disease still in this world if Jesus took it on his body? He took ‘’our;’’ ‘’our sickness and disease and sin,’’ he paid for ‘’our sin and disease,’’ it is for those believers who ‘’accept by ‘’faith’’ that disease in you is truly dead’’ just as sin in you is dead also. You have been born again a new creature without sin and without sickness and disease, but do we believe the word of a divine Almighty God who has the ability to do anything, but wrong preachers preach and confuse the believers, and so the devil and his evil spirits lurk about looking for a gap in your armour, so they can first of all, place a thought in your mind; ‘’sin or disease’’ and we accept them instead of ‘rebuking them’ the first moment we become aware. Scripture tells us to ‘’resist the devil and he will flee,’’ the word ‘’resist’’ means; to ‘’refuse to accept,’’ to ‘’refuse to go along with,’’ the word ‘’refuse’’ means to decline, to rebuff, to reject.
Isaiah 53Living Bible (TLB)
The promise
4 Yet it was our grief he bore, our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, for his own sins! 5 But ~he was~ ‘’wounded and bruised for our sins.’’ ~He was~ ‘’beaten’’ that we might have peace;’’ ‘’~he was~ lashed— and ‘’we were healed!’’
This scripture says ~he was~ ‘’wounded for our sins,’’ and ~he was~ beaten for our peace; ~he was~ lashed and ‘’we’’ were healed, all in this one scripture.
He fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, he was lashed and we were healed.
Healing belongs to the born again child of God for his sickness and disease were placed upon Jesus, and it is by ‘’believing that,’’ when disease comes around you know for certain your diseases are placed upon the body of Jesus when he went to the cross and killed your disease by dying for you; and killing your sin, and not just your sin, your diseases also, there is no difference between them they are easy to access, just believe that your disease is in Jesus body ‘now’ when he died for you, and so you should never accept disease or deformity or any other kind of disease.
the mind which needs to be conformed to the image and likeness of Jesus for the mind needs to be renewed through the divine word.
53 But, oh, how few believe it! Who will listen? To whom will God reveal his saving power? 2 In God’s eyes he was like a tender green shoot, sprouting from a root in dry and sterile ground. But in our eyes there was no attractiveness at all, nothing to make us want him. 3 We despised him and rejected him—a man of sorrows, acquainted with bitterest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way when he went by. He was despised, and we didn’t care.
1 Peter 2:24King James Version (KJV)
This scripture says ‘’we being dead to sin’’ should live unto righteousness; it is saying we, that’s us, you and me, the born again Christian, not the sinner, are ‘’dead to sin’’ because of the work on the cross by Jesus and he didn’t just kill sin in the born again Christian but he also killed diseases! Why is it easier for you to believe half of the word of God which clearly tells us ‘’all’’ that Jesus done and leave out the other half? I will tell you why; unbelief’’ it is as simple as that, unbelief in what Jesus done for us all, it is easier to believe that Jesus took away our sins than it is to believe that he also took away our sickness and diseases too. No faith in God’s word, unbelief that God could take away your sickness and pain and diseases for your mind is settled on the pain more even than on Jesus who took your pain away. If you cannot believe for healing how can you believe for prosperity or the other awesome things that God done because of Jesus taking our sins and disease on to his body; how can you believe God when he says you are filled with the Godhead, Father, son and Holy Spirit? Or how can you believe that ‘’as ~he is~ so are we in this world?’’
Both Isaiah and 1 Peter 2 24 say the same except for the word ‘’have’’ and ‘’were, ’’ the amplified says ‘’have’’ and the king James says ‘’were,’’ both words mean that it has already happened, its past tense.
And this scripture also confirmed Isaiah’s word in 1 Peter 2-24
*** {Healed means Healed definition, to ‘’make healthy, whole, or sound; ’’ ‘’restore to health;’’ ‘’free from ailment.’’ To ‘’restore to health or soundness;’’ ‘’cure:’’ ‘’healed the sick patient.’’ b. ‘’to ease or relieve (emotional distress’’)—Define heal: ‘’to become healthy or well again’’ heal in a sentence. ... Healed; healing: ‘’to make or become healthy or well again.’’ The cut healed slowly. Healing (‘’literally meaning to make whole’’) is the process of the ‘’restoration of health’’ from an ‘’unbalanced, diseased or damaged organism’’ - dictionary online. }***
24 Who his own self ‘’bare our ‘sins’ in his own body’’ on the tree that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye ‘’were’’ ‘’healed.’’
And the King James version says the same.
A lot of born again Christians deny who they are according to God’s way of thinking and saying; for instance many believe that this scripture is actually talking about Jesus; saying ‘as Jesus is, so are we;’ this is something most Christians avoid for it seems to be blasphemy to say such a thing, and so they don’t proclaim it; they, if they believe it, are ashamed to say in front of others, and remember God says, ‘’if you are ashamed of him he will be ashamed of you.’’ This is something that may surprise you, I was reading this scripture and proclaiming ‘’as Jesus is so am I in this world,’’ when the lord spoke to me and said, ‘’go to the beginning of the scripture and see who is talking,’’ and I was shocked to discover that it was actually ‘’God himself’’ who is saying this thing about himself and not about Jesus as most believers think!
If you can’t believe for healing how can you believe for this unbelievable revelation, and this is simply part of the full gospel that I have been sharing with you, but don’t take my word on this, read the scriptures that I gave you for yourself and don’t deny what you read, for that is unbelief, and God is ‘’not pleased by unbelief;’’ he even gave the apostles a severe telling off when he appeared to them after he rose from the dead.
1 John 4:17 Amplified Bible
King James Version
In this [union and fellowship with Him], love is completed and perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the Day of Judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him]; because as He is, so are we in this world.
These were the first words he spoke after rising from the dead to his apostles, what is he going to say to you, you unbeliever; ‘’something to remember,’’ those who teach the word will suffer twice as much as one who doesn’t know it.
If you found this hard to believe then you’re going to have a lot of problems with this next scripture; have a nice day!
Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the Day of Judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
These false teachers make God out to be a miserable tight fisted God as I said before, but think of this, if God who says we are his children, loves us, and forgives us, without any conditions; his love is unconditional; and he gave up his only son to a terrible suffering and crucifixion and death for us, to get us into heaven and to bless us with incredible gifts; and who also gave us his own Holy Spirit; wont he also give us everything he promised in his divine living word?
Is Jesus rebuking you right now for your unbelief that he could take your sickness and diseases on to his body, just as he took your sins, and remember sickness won’t send you to hell, sin will? Think about this for a while instead of just reading on; ‘’sickness will not send you to hell’’ if you ‘’refuse to believe’’ Jesus took it into his body at the scourging at the pillar; but refusing to believe that he took your sin also will. He redeemed you from both, and as a result of your redemption, many other things were added unto you, just as scripture said; seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be ‘’added unto you.’’ There is nothing taken away did you notice?
14 Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; ‘’he rebuked them’’ for their ‘’lack of faith’’ and their stubborn ‘’refusal to believe’’ those who had seen him after he had risen.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and ‘’all’’ these things shall be ‘’added unto you.’’
Matthew 6:33- King James Version
Mark 16New International Version (NIV)
When you contradict the living word of God then you preach a false doctrine!
What things; for it doesn’t tell us there what they are, for God wants you to search his word and see for yourself what other things he gave you throughout the full gospel, and the things are ‘’righteousness, right standing with God;’’ ‘’prosperity,’’ ‘’sonship with God;’’ ‘’joined together with Jesus in spirit;’’ ‘’as he ‘God’ is so are you,’’ and much, much more.

And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: 11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.13 And you, being dead in your sins and the un circumcision of your flesh, ‘’hath he quickened together with him,’’ having forgiven you all trespasses;

Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, 19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increased with the increase of God.

Colossians 2-6-King James Version (KJV)
Scripture here says let no man beguile you;16 let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath days: or in respect of who you are in Christ Jesus. It is the enemy who deceives man who then deceives people; by their wrong doctrine and foolish beliefs that contradict the word of the living God for the

As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelled all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, ‘’nailing it to his cross;’’ 15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it. 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, 21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not; 22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
This is incredible to think of; God trusts us with his Godhead, father son and Holy Spirit; and if God done all that surely he will give us financial blessings just as he promised in his word. Which is more awesome, to receive God’s own Godhead; or to receive financial blessings?
He held seven stars in his right hand and a sharp, double-bladed sword in his mouth, and his face shone like the power of the sun in unclouded brilliance.
A bible unread is a weapon going rusty and fragile. The word is alive and breathing and is our defensive and offensive weapon, and it also teaches us who and what we are in Christ Jesus and when you realise who and what you are in Christ Jesus then you will know that prosperity is way down in the important things that God gave you, it is not insignificant it is breath-taking, but you have been given even more amazing things from God like making you ‘’one with him in the Godhead in Christ Jesus;’’ when you see what God has done for you in these matters you can see how easy it is to believe for prosperity or healing. If a God gives us right standing with himself and it is ‘’his own righteousness’’ why would he withhold prosperity from us and why would he withhold healing from us, when he has given us his own Holy Son and his awesome Holy Spirit to live in us with himself also?
word is alive and sharper than a two edged sword, and it needs to be in your mouth just as it is Jesus mouth in the book of revelations
10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
For in him dwelled all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
Revelation 1:16
Why would Jesus hold a double edged sword in his mouth? You would think he would hold it in his hand! Everything Jesus does and says has multiple meanings as I am sure you have found from reading the divine living word; for you have read a scripture years ago, and all of a sudden as you read the same scripture again it changes, and you get revelation in it as it becomes alive for you.
.
Read this scripture carefully and you will see that as Jesus is in the Godhead, his word says so are you. ‘’In Jesus dwelled all the fullness of the Godhead bodily and it says ‘’you are complete in Him’’
{Jesus} if you are complete and
My personal belief in this is he is telling us we have a double edged sword in our mouths also when we stand against the enemy with the word in our mouth, and not in our hand; for the word just in our hands does nothing but it a sword in our mouth when we use the living word, and you know something here, the sword is a ‘’living word’’ and Christians forget the power in a ‘’living word’’ rather than in one that is in your hand or on your bookcase doing nothing.

God’s word says if evil people know how to give good and advantageous gifts to their children how much more do you think that God will give to his children? It’s scary to think that God wants to bless us with everything, and there are teachers and preachers out there telling them the very opposite; if evil people know how to give their kids good things, why can’t God who is a good and loving father give to his children prosperity, and these false teachers try and rob the children of God of their prosperity.
“If you then, evil as you are, know how to give good and advantageous gifts to your children, how much more will your Father Who is in heaven [perfect as He is] give good and advantageous things to those who keep on asking Him!”
joined to him in spirit as one person, then you also are in the Godhead through Jesus. If God does all these awesome things for us his own divine children surly he will give us ‘’prosperity and healing’’ to mention just a few things our God does for us. ‘’He made us in his own image,’’ think of that for a little while! What does he mean by this; made in his own image Genesis 1. 26 Then God said, “Let us make a man someone like ourselves,* to be the master of all life upon the earth and in the skies and in the seas.”
Matthew 7:11 Amplified Bible
Romans 3:4 Living Bible
27 So God made man like his Maker. Like God did God make man; Man and maid did he make them. 28 And God blessed them
Of course not! Though everyone else in the world is a liar, God is not. Do you remember what the book of Psalms says about this? That God’s words will always prove true and right, no matter who questions them.
Of course, common sense tells us that it is greater to receive the spirit of God to live in us than it is to receive money from God. And God in his great and overwhelming love for us wants to bless us with an abundance of prosperity and it is only unbelief that keeps it away from us. Will God tell us a lie about prosperity if he already gave us salvation, sonship with him, and his own Holy Spirit of course not, and made us part of the Godhead, through Jesus joined together with him and with us, in union with him; God does not lie!

Wisdom energizes its owner; wow! Wisdom energizes its owner. {Define energize: to give energy or excitement to (someone or something, the free dictionary.} What an awesome thing, when you have wisdom you get great energy. God’s main aim in giving us money is so that we can reach out and help others in need; and the greater the amount of money the greater amount of people you can help.
Ecclesiastes 7:11-12 in the Message Bible says:

Wisdom is better when it's paired with money, especially if you get both while you're still living. Double protection: wisdom and wealth! Plus this bonus: Wisdom energizes its owner
Galatians 3:13 Amplified Bible
Money and wisdom are a real blessing.
Wisdom is better when it is paired with money;’’ I thought that God didn’t want us having money, or prosperity? This can’t be real, you say, especially when you see what God’s word says about money and wisdom. What is God offering here= ‘’money paired with wisdom,’’ ‘’double protection;’’ ‘’double protection?’’ Yes ‘’double protection’’ and yet these blind teachers say God does not make his children prosperous.
Helping the poor if you have no money how are you able to help the poor, if you have no knickers on your bare arse, how can you give their bare arses a pair of knickers to cover theirs. Stop criticising what I say about bare arses and instead give your heart to the scriptures I give to show you God wants to give us, ‘’his children, prosperity,’’ so that as his representatives on earth we can reach out and help his other children in third world countries or even here at home; poverty is a curse and we have been redeemed from the curse haven’t we?
Christ purchased our freedom and ‘’redeemed us from the curse of the Law’’ and its condemnation by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS [crucified] ON A TREE (cross)”

Deuteronomy 28Living Bible (TLB)
28 “If you fully obey all of these commandments of the Lord your God, the laws I am declaring to you today, God will transform you into the greatest nation in the world. 2 6 These are the blessings that will come upon you:
6
What was the curse of the law that Jesus freed us from?
“For you are a holy people, dedicated to the Lord your God; He has chosen you from all the people on the face of the whole earth to be his own chosen ones. 7 He didn’t choose you and pour out his love upon you because you were a larger nation than any other, for you were the smallest of all! 8 It was just because ‘’he loves you,’’ and because he kept his promise to your ancestors. That is why he brought you out of slavery in Egypt with such amazing power and mighty miracles.
9 “Understand, therefore, that the Lord your God is the faithful God who for a thousand generations keeps his promises and constantly loves those who love him and who obey his commands. 10 But those who hate him shall be punished publicly and destroyed. He will deal with them personally. 11 Therefore, obey all these commandments I am giving you today. 12 Because of your obedience, the Lord your God will keep his part of the contract which, in his tender love, he made with your fathers. 13 And he will love you and bless you and make you into a great nation. He will make you fertile and give fertility to your ground and to your animals, so that you will have large crops of grain, grapes, and olives, and great flocks of cattle, sheep, and goats when you arrive in the land he promised your fathers to give you. 14 You will be blessed above all the nations of the earth; not one of you, whether male or female, shall be barren, not even your cattle. 15 And the Lord will take away all your sickness and will not let you suffer any of the diseases of Egypt you remember so well; he will give them all to your enemies!
Deuteronomy 28 6 Living Bible (TLB)
“For the Lord himself will send his personal curse upon you; You will be confused and a failure in everything you do, until at last you are destroyed because of the sin of forsaking him. 21 He will send disease among you until you are destroyed from the face of the land you are about to enter and possess. 22 He will send tuberculosis, fever, infections, plague, and war. He will blight your crops, covering them with mildew. All these devastations shall pursue you until you perish.
23
If you will only listen and obey the commandments of the Lord your God that I am giving you today, he will make you the head and not the tail, and you shall always have the upper hand. 14 But each of these blessings depends on your not turning aside in any way from the laws I have given you; and you must never worship other gods.
“If you won’t listen to the Lord your God and won’t obey these laws I am giving you today, then all of these curses shall come upon you: Curses in the city, Curses in the fields, Curses on your fruit and bread, The curse of barren wombs, Curses upon your crops, Curses upon the fertility of your cattle and flocks, Curses when you come in, Curses when you go out.

“The Lord will defeat your enemies before you; they will march out together against you but scatter before you in seven directions! 8 The Lord will bless you with good crops and healthy cattle, and prosper everything you do when you arrive in the land the Lord your God is giving you. 9 He will change you into a holy people dedicated to himself; this he has promised to do if you will only obey him and walk in his ways. 10 All the nations in the world shall see that you belong to the Lord, and they will stand in awe.
“The heavens above you will be as unyielding as bronze, and the earth beneath will be as iron;24 The land will become as dry as dust for lack of rain, and dust storms shall destroy you.

“The Lord will cause you to be defeated by your enemies; You will march out to battle gloriously, but flee before your enemies in utter confusion; and you will be tossed to and fro among all the nations of the earth. 26 Your dead bodies will be food to the birds and wild animals, and no one will be there to chase them away.

“The Lord will give you an abundance of good things in the land, just as he promised: many children, many cattle, and abundant crops. 12 He will open to you his wonderful treasury of rain in the heavens, to give you fine crops every season. He will bless everything you do; and ‘’you shall lend to many nations,’’ but shall ‘’not borrow from them.’’ 13
“All these curses shall pursue and overtake you until you are destroyed—all because you refuse to listen to the Lord your God. 46 These horrors shall befall you and your descendants as a warning: 47 48 You will become slaves to your enemies because of your failure to praise God for all that he has given you. The Lord will send your enemies against you, and you will be hungry, thirsty, naked, and in want of everything. A yoke of iron shall be placed around your neck until you are destroyed!

“He will exile you and the king you will choose to a nation to which neither you nor your ancestors gave a second thought; and while in exile you shall worship gods of wood and stone! 37 You will become an object of horror, a proverb and a byword among all the nations, for the Lord will thrust you away.
“You will sow much but reap little, for the locusts will eat your crops. 39 You will plant vineyards and care for them, but you won’t eat the grapes or drink the wine, for worms will destroy the vines. 40 Olive trees will be growing everywhere, but there won’t be enough olive oil to anoint you! For the trees will drop their fruit before it is matured; 41 Your sons and daughters will be snatched away from you as slaves. 42 The locusts shall destroy your trees and vines. 43 Foreigners living among you shall become richer and richer while you become poorer and poorer. 44 They shall lend to you, not you to them! They shall be the head and you shall be the tail!

“The Lord will bring a distant nation against you, swooping down upon you like an eagle; a nation whose language you don’t understand 50 a nation of fierce and angry men who will have no mercy upon young or old. 51 They will eat you out of house and home until your cattle and crops are gone. Your grain, new wine, olive oil, calves, and lambs will all disappear. 52 That nation will lay siege to your cities and knock down your highest walls—the walls you will trust to protect you. 53 You will even eat the flesh of your own sons and daughters in the terrible days of siege that lie ahead. 54 The tenderest
“Someone else will marry your fiancée; someone else will live in the house you build; someone else will eat the fruit of the vineyard you plant. 31 Your oxen shall be butchered before your eyes, but you won’t get a single bite of the meat. Your donkeys will be driven away as you watch and will never return to you again. Your sheep will be given to your enemies. And there will be no one to protect you. 32 You will watch as your sons and daughters are taken away as slaves. Your heart will break with longing for them, but you will not be able to help them. 33 A foreign nation you have not even heard of will eat the crops you will have worked so hard to grow. You will always be oppressed and crushed. 34 You will go mad because of all the tragedy you see around you. 35 The Lord will cover you with boils from head to foot.
“He will send upon you Egyptian boils, tumours, scurvy, and itch, for none of which will there be a remedy. 28 He will send madness, blindness, fear, and panic upon you. 29 You shall grope in the bright sunlight just as the blind man gropes in darkness. You shall not prosper in anything you do; you will be oppressed and robbed continually, and nothing will save you.

When you first encountered Jesus, you gave your heart to him and it is no different if you were wealthy, or ok, or poor, all received his salvation no matter what they were.

If he gave it to the Jews in the Old Testament wont he give it even more in abundance to his born again Children who are now joined together with and in him and in the father also and in the Godhead as a whole; whose only true desire is to find the kingdom of heaven.
9 “Understand, therefore, that the Lord your God is the faithful God who for a thousand generations keeps his promises and constantly loves those who love him and who obey his commands God made mighty promises to our ancestors to bless us with prosperity and this promise goes on and on to those who love him and obey him and follow him obeying all that he tells us; his promise to bless us with prosperity hangs over us like a blanket, most people don’t even see these promises they have been blinded by the god of this world, the devil, Satan, and his hoards of demons and evil spirits, whose only goal is to ‘’steal kill and destroy,’’ to rob us of finances, God desires that we learn from his word and lay hold to them by faith in his divine living word.
Jesus in his work on the cross delivered us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, as scripture says, ‘’cursed is anyone who hangs on a tree.’’ You may say this just applied to the Jews and has nothing to do with me or us, then you are wrong for the blessings go to us who have been redeemed from the curse of the law; ‘’we’’ have been ‘’redeemed’’ from the curse not from the blessings; they still apply otherwise the work on the cross was for nothing if it was just for the Jews.
hearted man among you will be utterly callous toward his own brother and his beloved wife and his children who are still alive. 55 He will refuse to give them a share of the flesh he is devouring—the flesh of his own children—because he is starving in the midst of the siege of your cities. 56 57 the most tender and delicate woman among you—the one who would not so much as touch her feet to the ground will refuse to share with her beloved husband, son, and daughter. She will hide from them the afterbirth and the new baby she has borne, so that she herself can eat them: so terrible will be the hunger during the siege and the awful distress caused by your enemies at your gates.
Deuteronomy 7:9-Living Bible
has chosen you from all the people on the face of the whole earth to be his own chosen ones. And you sought the kingdom of God for yourselves; you sought first
What does God call us now? ‘His ‘’holy’’ children’ Ephesians 1 4
You always have the poor among you, and they ‘’badly need your help,’’ and you can aid them whenever you want to; but I won’t be here much longer.
Helping the poor is what we are told to do
“And God is able to make ‘’all grace’’ (every favour,{~ favour~ ‘’evry good will, kindness, good deed, support’’~} and ‘’earthly blessing’’) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].”
Helping the poor is what God wants from us and you cannot help the poor if you’re broke, and have a bare arse.
Did you read this scripture carefully; it says he will give you enough for ‘’every good work’’ and ‘’charitable donation!’’ ‘Possessing enough’ to ‘’require no aid or support’’ and ‘’furnished in abundance;’’ God will give to you ‘great abundance’ ~ {Abundance definition, = an extremely plentiful or ‘’over sufficient’’ ‘’quantity or supply,’’} and ‘graces’ to help you help the poor among us; so that you will be ‘self sufficient.’ Wow God wants us ‘self sufficient’ that means you don’t need help from anyone! He wants us, his own sons and daughters, to have an over abundance of wealth and supply, so that we can bless others less fortunate;
Mark 14:7-Living Bible
When we are blessed with prosperity then we are supposed to reach out and help the poor among us and the poor in distant lands for they are all God’s children.
2 Corinthians 9:8 in the Amplified Bible says:
Again God’s word talks about a double portion of prosperity, my God how much does it take to make you understand that God really does want to give
Isaiah 61:7=Instead of shame and dishonour, you shall have a double portion of prosperity and everlasting joy.
Again it says, ‘’you will be a blessing, dispensing good to others;’’ this is a great reason to be rich and have your feet in the kingdom of God. Did you know there must be some sort of financial situation in heaven; for scripture talks about keeping your purses safe without holes, and scripture says you shall have a double portion of prosperity, with everlasting joy.
Genesis 12:2 in the Amplified Bible says: “And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you [with abundant increase of favours] and make your name famous and distinguished, and you will be a blessing [dispensing good to others].”
this is why he gives us prosperity, for every good work and charitable donation. If you have a bare arse, how can you give abundance to charity?
Genesis-12 is practically the same as 2 Corinthians 9 8 the same words are used in these scriptures, one in the Old Testament and one in the New Testament making it ‘’now’’ in this present day for us.
I will bless you with abundant increase of favours and make your name famous how’s that for a promise?
Not only did God bless his people in the Old Testament but do you actually think that now that he has actually given you his own spirit, {they didn’t get that in the old Testament,} is it not possible to your closed minds that God would bless us, his own born again children who have {Jesus inside them, and the Holy Spirit inside, and even the father himself inside; and we who are being changed day by day into his own image and likeness}, with prosperity even more so; for in reality he is blessing himself joined together with us and us in him; for we are one in spirit with God in the Trinity?
If God is willing to share with you his own self and his son Jesus to live in you and his Holy Spirit to live in you as the ‘’Trinity’’ ‘Godhead,’’ would he withhold prosperity to you. Does prosperity not belong to you for God said, ‘’all his son has in now yours also,’’ and Jesus owns all the treasures in heaven, and on the earth, for the word says, ‘’all the gold and all the cattle on a thousand hills belong to him,’’ and he dispenses wealth as he chooses. We are joint heirs with Jesus
…16The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. 17And if we are children, then we are ‘’heirs:’’’’ heirs’’ of God’’ and ‘’co-‘heirs’’ ‘’with Christ’’ if indeed ‘’we ‘suffer’ with Him,’’ so that ‘’we may also be ‘glorified’ ‘’with Him.’’ 18I consider that our present sufferings are not comparable to the glory that will be revealed in us.
If God made you a joint heir with Christ Jesus then would he not only to readily give you prosperity and healing; they are insurmountable a gift from Almighty God.
Romans 8:17- Berean Study Bible
Heirs-with-Christ
you prosperity? Now I am going to share with you some scriptures to show that even in the past all God wanted to do was to give his chosen people prosperity; are you now his chosen people or are you a sinner designated for hell.
If God has called you and you responded believing his offer of salvation, then you are his chosen one; God says he is the one who offers you salvation, for you cannot come to God unless he calls you, and when he calls you he heals you, and he prospers you, and blesses you with awesome blessing like calling you his child, his son or daughter, and he even joined his own spirit with yours making you one with him; and if you are one with Jesus, then you are one with the father also for Jesus is one with God You now know that God actually says you are ‘’filled with the Godhead,’’ that’s ‘’him, Jesus and his Holy Spirit’’ how can you receive greater than that, money does not count compared to this position you now hold in God because of Jesus and through the power of the Holy Spirit.

…18Here is what I have seen to be good and fitting: to eat, to drink and enjoy oneself in all one's labour in which he toils under the sun during the few years of his life which God has given him; for this is his reward. 19Furthermore, as for every man to whom ‘’God has given riches and wealth,’’ He has also empowered him to eat from them and to receive his reward and rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God. 20 for he will not often consider the years of his life, because God keeps him occupied with the gladness of his heart.
Who give out wealth? It is no one else but God, so stop trying to say he is selective in whom he blesses with wealth, God is not a respecter of persons, acts 10-34 19Furthermore, as for every man to whom ‘’God has given ‘’riches’’ and ‘’wealth,’’ He has also empowered him to eat from them and to receive his reward and rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God.
A question I would ask is, are you bible blind? Do you not see that it is the one and only God alone who dispenses wealth out? God put into this world ‘’his word’’ that ‘’you shall have whatever you say,’’ ‘’if you ‘’believe,’’ and that word is for anyone, be it a Muslim or a pagan or non Christian or even Isis a terrorist group, anyone can be a millionaire ‘if they ‘believe’ they will become one; and if you ever read how these people got their wealth they tell you, they ‘’believed’’ they would be ‘wealthy and a millionaire’ and they spoke it out of their mouths every day of their lives and God’s wealth had to come to them whether they are good or bad, his word is still alive and is for everyone. That is why you see even bad people get rich, and they seem to be doing well always they ‘believed’ they would be rich and spoke it out of their mouths. Sadly the majority of Christians do ‘not believe,’ or have faith in ‘themselves’ or faith in God’s word and so they receive what they believed ‘’nothing!” and it does not help the plans of God when fools preach poverty instead of preaching God’s word. A bare arse cannot clothe another bare arse.
Here are some scriptures on prosperity; Ecclesiastes 5:19 New American Standard Bible

“But that is the time to be careful! Beware that in your plenty you don’t forget the Lord your God and begin to disobey him. 12 13 For when you have become full and prosperous and have built fine homes to live in, and when your flocks and herds have become very large, and your silver and gold have multiplied, 14 that is the time to watch out that you don’t become proud and forget the Lord your God who brought you out of your slavery in the land of Egypt. 15 Beware that you don’t forget the God who led you through the great and terrible wilderness with the dangerous snakes and scorpions, where it was so hot and dry. He gave you water from the rock! 16 He fed you with manna in the wilderness (it was a kind of bread unknown before) so that you would become humble and so that your trust in him would grow, and he could do you good. 17 He did it so that you would never feel that it was your own power and might that made you wealthy. 18 Always remember that it is the Lord your God who gives ‘’you’’ power to become rich, and he does it to fulfil his promise to your ancestors.

Walk in his ways and fear him. 7 For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land of brooks, pools, gushing springs, valleys, and hills; 8 it is a land of wheat and barley, of grapevines, fig trees, pomegranates, olives, and honey; 9 it is a land where food is plentiful, and nothing is lacking; it is a land where iron is as common as stone, and copper is abundant in the hills. 10 When you have eaten your fill, bless the Lord your God for the good land he has given you.
“But if you forget about the Lord your God and worship other gods instead, and follow evil ways, you shall certainly perish, 20 just as the Lord has caused other nations in the past to perish. That will be your fate, too, if you don’t obey the Lord your God.
Psalm 107:41=but he rescues the poor who are godly and gives them many children and much prosperity.
Zechariah 1:17=Say it again: ‘The Lord Almighty declares that the cities of Israel will again
“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons.”
God gives prosperity to the poor and humble, it is God who does it if they believe.
All God seems to do is offer prosperity and kids to the poor who are godly.
Psalm 128:2=Their reward shall be prosperity and happiness.
The reward God gives to his children be they Jews or Christian Born again children, is prosperity and happiness with it.
Job 5:11=and gives prosperity to the poor and humble, and takes sufferers to safety.
Acts 10:34 says:
His offer of prosperity belongs to all who believe in him and in his promises go even to Donald Trump and other wealthy men, and to all that would declare it
Job 36:11
If they listen and obey him, then they will be blessed with prosperity throughout their lives.
“
Listening seems to go a long way with God and in his desire to bless and prosper you.
Zechariah 8:4=The Lord Almighty declares that Jerusalem will have peace and prosperity so long that there will once again be aged men and women hobbling through her streets on canes,
-----------------------------
Zechariah 8:12=“For I am ‘’sowing’’ peace’ and ‘’prosperity’’ among you. Your crops will ‘’prosper;’’ the grapevines will be weighted down with fruit; the ground will be fertile, with plenty of rain; all these blessings will be given to the people left in the land.
The promise of owning your own home is on offer here and peace as well and of course prosperity
”
The lord is offering Jerusalem peace with prosperity; I wonder do they know and believe?
Ten New Testament promise of prosperity
Romans 1:10 King James Version Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you
Peace and prosperity is the plan of God for all of us large crops and big, big grapes for making wine.lol
Prosperity that’s what God is offering his people, are you his people?
overflow with prosperity, and the Lord will again comfort Jerusalem and bless her and live in her.’
Zechariah 3:10=And after that,’ the Lord Almighty declares, ‘you will all live in peace and prosperity, and each of you will own a home of your own where you can invite your neighbours.’”
Luke 12:43-Amplified Bible=Blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired) is that servant whom his master finds so doing when he arrives.
Blessed, happy, prosperous to be admired is that servant to whom the master finds doing so when he arrives, whose word is this, it is not Luke though Luke may have written it but he wrote it down because Jesus said it. Blessed happy and prosperous to be admired is anyone who is doing the will of God when he returns; are you doing the will of God? Are you out preaching the full gospel with signs and wonders happening! If you are then your blessed, happy and prosperous, it’s all yours so go after it.
Luke 14:15-Amplified Bible=When one of those who were reclining at the table with Him heard this, he {Jesus} said to Him, “Blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired) is he who will eat bread in the kingdom of God!”
I am well off at this moment in time but my life is full of terrible things happening to members of my family and all the money in the world would not make up for what they have suffered, so I have money but money does not have me, and to give you a for instance; a man who is a pastor in a church that teaches salvation, the baptism in the holy spirit, and healing; and lately he is ‘’preaching’ on ‘’prosperity’’ and his congregation has up and left him in droves because he is teaching them on prosperity, and they are leaving him with debts to pay. Both Rose and I thought that we would give him a substantial sum of money to help him, but we were stopped by the Holy Spirit, whom I believe was testing us to see if we would give out of our savings and we would have, only we both felt ‘’no!’’ I don’t know why, perhaps the lord is teaching him if he is going to preach on prosperity, then put up or shut up, as the saying goes;
Remember that prosperous means wealth affluent- well off. Paul is wishing for a prosperous journey by the will of God.
This reference is to the kingdom of God, blessed happy, prosperous, does God, or Jesus know the full meaning of the words he speaks? Of course he does, and he chooses his words wisely and says, ‘’happy,’’ ‘’prosperous,’’ ‘’wealth,’’~ well off well to do—affluent are those who are going to eat bread in the kingdom of God, and we are those to whom the kingdom belongs.
People will admire the rich man who has God as his first desire; for money does not have him though he has money, and there is a great difference between you having money and money having you.
All I think of every day is what can I do to be a blessing to others; for me my greatest desire is to have healing services in the local bars, for the churches are not interested in having them; ‘no faith, and no belief’ is my belief in why they don’t want them, or perhaps they bring some famous healer or evangelist but don’t do healing themselves. My greatest reason in having healing services is so that I can preach the word of God and get people saved first before healing and then Baptised in the Holy Spirit next and then saved as according to Mark 16 15. Go out into the entire word, preach the gospel, baptise in the spirit and heal the sick.
Luke 12Living Bible (TLB)
========================================
Luke 12Living Bible (TLB)
21
let’s see your faith in what you preach; but the main thrust of what I am saying is if the lord told us to give him every penny we have, we both would have.
“Yes, every man is a fool who gets rich on earth but not in heaven.”
32
“So don’t be afraid, little flock. For it gives your Father great happiness to give you the Kingdom. 33 Sell what you have and give to those in need. This will fatten your purses in heaven! And the purses of heaven have no rips or holes in them. Your treasures there will never disappear; no thief can steal them; no moth can destroy them.34 wherever your treasure is, there your heart and thoughts will also be.
==================================
This is a great scripture for it tells us that any rich man who does not put God first is a fool, but in our hearts do we put God first; he is saying you’re a fool if you only get rich here on earth and not in heaven; he tells us how to get rich in heaven in this next part of this scripture. God is not against riches for we have read enough scriptures that show that to the contrary; and he wants us not only rich here on earth but also in heaven
Luke 12Living Bible (TLB)
40 So be ready all the time. For I, the Messiah, will come when least expected.” 41 Peter asked, “Lord, are you talking just to us or to everyone?” 42 44 And the Lord replied, “I’m talking to any faithful, sensible man whose master gives him the responsibility of feeding the other servants. If his master returns and finds that he has done a good job, there will be a reward—his master will put him in charge of all he owns.
There is a reward for even doing as were told.
1 Timothy 6:17 Living Bible=Tell those who are rich not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which will soon be gone, but their pride and trust should be in the living God who always richly gives us ‘’all we need’’ ‘’for ‘our’ enjoyment.
‘’
I have seen a close friend and his wife, give away a farm, all the animals on it and all the money in the bank to the younger brother of the family, who had nothing; they probably gave away a half a million maybe more. I seen these people offer me things of great value which I refused, they had no value on money; they gave me a car when Rose and I asked for one of the Lord, as I said earlier in this book, these are the same people who loved God more even that all the wealth they had.
But here is a most important statement from the mouth of God for the word is from the mouth of God himself. Why does he give us all we need? It is for our enjoyment! IF god was against money and us being rich he would never say he gives us money for our enjoyment.

I believe that almost every true born again servant of God doesn’t trust in their riches, but trusts in God, for they love God and worship him, for the most of them anyway. Trusting in money is stupid for we know in this present climate here in Ireland and England that money changes in value all the time, once the pound was worth a great deal against the Euro, I remember getting thirty pence more in my pound against the Euro, Now it has switched, the pound and the Euro are now even. For the wealthy their money dropped down a dramatic lot, but tomorrow it could go back up again, and many who trusted in money invested badly and have lost a tremendous lot. Those who trust in the Lord and not in their wealth I believe the Holy Spirit advises them, for I have seen this happen over the years for rich believers, God increased the fortunes for they loved him not their money.
They had wealth but wealth didn’t have them, they gave away more than they themselves had, and later on they asked me to pray for a venture that the family had invested in, an oil drilling operation, and it looked like it was going bust. I prayed and a few weeks later they discovered oil. Now was that in answer to my prayer? I don’t know, and probably will never know, but I believed it was because they gave away all the wealth the dead uncle had left them in his will; they had money but money did not have them and so God blessed this family with the salvation of their brothers and sisters and father and friends. They opened their home to others whom they invited to come to the prayer meeting that I was ministering in, in their home, and God blessed their village and surrounding area and later on, they blessed others in other ventures they were in.
1-Corinthians -3-21-NIV Bible
Paul was encouraging the Christians to set aside money for others according to how God had blessed them with prosperity, and they done so. Paul is saying here that as God blessed the followers with prosperity they should decide how to help other Christians; that’s why God gives us money, it is not just for us but it is God’s way of reaching out to help his children in poverty, and we Christians should be teaching them that God desires to make them wealthy also, it is the perfect will of God for us to be prosperous.
So then, no more boasting about human leaders! All things are yours,’’22 whether Paul or Apollo’s or Cephas or the world or ‘’life or death’’ or the ‘’present or the future’’—‘’all are yours,’’ 23 and ‘’you are of Christ,’’ and ‘’Christ is of God.’’
‘’
Money was not their God; their hearts were focused on heaven.
1 Corinthians 16:2 King James Version=Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
pride and trust should be in the living God who always richly gives us all we need for ‘’our enjoyment.’’ God gives us money for our enjoyment why can’t those wrong teachers see what God says about his children; he gives them money, yes money; money is prosperity, and God wants us to enjoy having money. And this scripture says whatever God has given them, and that means once again, it is God who gives us money. It is wrong teaching about money that gets people into poverty, wrong teachers make out that money is the root of all evil and scripture contradicts that statement; it is greedy people that cause this, giving these false teachers food for thought.
All things including money are ours, but leaders teach the opposite to their flocks, how sad is that, they are diminishing their awesome God by teaching that he doesn’t want to bless us, I don’t know why they think like this, maybe it is because they don’t feel the divine love that God has for them or don’t believe that his love goes so far as to make us wealthy through his prosperity; we must keep in mind it is because he loves us so much that he wants to bless us with prosperity; if after reading all the scriptures that are in this book and finding out others for yourself, ‘’never take my word,’’ but take the word of our loving father, the living God in his bible.
1 -Timothy- 6:17 The Way Bible- Hebrews But their pride and trust should be in the living God who ‘’always’’ richly ‘’gives us’’ ‘’all we need’’ for ‘’our enjoyment.’’ Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and ‘’give’’ ‘’happily’’ to those in need, always being ready to whatever God has given them.
Again we see that God gives us money and he richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment, and his instructions are again to use your wealth to do good; giving happily to those in need. ‘’use their money to do good. ‘We should be rich in doing good helping people in need and there are plenty of people around that are in desperate need.
I included this scripture again for it is a blessing to know that God always richly gives us money for our enjoyment; and he says, ‘’to tell others to use their money to do good,’’ for after all it is him that gives ‘’every good gift and blessing’’ no one else; we should be rich in good deeds and giving happily to those in desperate need, even if it leaves us busted at times.
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many grief’s
And he tells us in the book of Philippians ‘’he will supply ‘’all’’ your needs,’’ who is it that is saying he will supply all your needs? It is Jesus, who is saying it, so if he is against money then why does he say he will give it? And why does the father say he gives us money for our enjoyment if he is supposed to be against it?
Some more scriptures for you to study
1 Timothy 6:10 NIV Bible
Twelve
James 5:16 TLB
Admit your faults to one another and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous man has great power and wonderful results.
If you are in need of money or anything then all you have to do is ask and as the scripture I used in the beginning of this book; Jesus says, ‘’you can ask for anything and if you believe you have it, then it’s yours!’’
It is the love of money and all it can do for ‘’you, yourself, and no one else,’’ that is the root of all evil, money given to you by God is a great blessing, and should always be followed every day with, ‘’lord this is you wealth what do you wish for me to do with it today?’’
Not to many Christians are prepared to admit their faults to one another in case the person thinks bad of them, that’s understandable of course but remember something the word says, ‘’all have sinned;’’ so you’re not on your
Phillipians 4 19 and it is he who will supply all your needs from his riches in glory, because of what Christ Jesus has done for us.
We are God’s own sons and since we are his sons, doesn’t it make sense to know the father will bless us, after all, the gold and silver and diamonds and everything of riches belong to him, and is ours to share. God plans are to prosper you and to heal you Jeremiah 29, and Galatians 4 7 confirms Jeremiah 29 statement he plans to
own. Do you pray for one another or are you an unbeliever that doesn’t believe in healing in the salvation message, and perhaps you don’t think of yourself as a righteous man; God is delighted when we profess that we are his own righteousness. And we righteous people have great power when we pray with wonderful results.
Psalm-24-1- the earth belongs to God! Everything in the entire world is his. There’s no contradicting that statement is there
Galatians 4 7 now we are no longer slaves but God’s own sons. And since we are his sons, ‘’everything’’ ‘’he has belongs to us,’’ for that is the way God planned.
Jeremiah 29:11New International Version (NIV)
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
God’s plans for us are to give us prosperity and a future with hope and blessings; God’s love goes beyond anything you could ever imagine or dream of; his love is like himself, without limit, and sadly we have been taught the opposite, dismantling the awesome love that God has for us, taking it apart with wrong teachings making him out to be a harsh God with awful judgements against us, instead of revealing the one true God whose very makeup is consisting of only one substance love!’’
God sees you as his beloved son and sees you as an heir of his sons prosperity and healing.
“Now yield and submit yourself to Him [agree with God and be conformed to His will] and be at peace; In this way [you will ‘’prosper’’ and great] good will come to you.
But if you give yourself to the Lord, you and Christ are joined together as one person.
22 “Please receive the law and instruction from His mouth and establish His words in your heart and keep them. 23“If you return to the Almighty [and submit and humble yourself before Him], you will be built up [and restored] If you remove unrighteousness far from your tents,24 And place your gold in the dust, And the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks [considering it of little value],25 And ‘’make the Almighty your gold And your precious silver,’’26 Then you will have delight in the Almighty, And you will lift up your face to God.27 “You will pray to Him, and He will hear you, And you will pay your vows.
1 Corinthians 6:17- the Way Bible
27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the ‘’prosperity’’ of his servant. 28 And my tongue shall speak of thy righteousness and of thy praise all the day long.
Shout for joy when you are made prosperous, and magnify the living Lord who takes pleasure; I’ll say that again who ‘’takes ‘’pleasure,’’ in the ‘’prosperity’’ of his servants, that’s us. Imagine God takes pleasure in our prosperity let’s give him more and more pleasure by sharing this book with other who believe they should be poor. Let him be magnified, let him be magnified, let him alone be magnified by giving him pleasure by thanking him for his prosperity.
Job 21-Amplified Bible (AMP)
Submit yourself to the lord daily, and agree with his word, don’t try to contradict it with scripture that seems to say the opposite to you, look at the quantity of scripture that say prosperity is God’s blessings to us and to others; ‘’make God your gold and silver your wealth’’ that means and he will bless you

PSALM 35 27 Psalm 35King James Version (KJV)
It is an awesome thing to be made the ‘’righteousness of God;’’ think of that statement for a while, dwell on it and think freely how much God has actually given us human beings who are made in his own divine image.
Did you know that God was joining you to Jesus in the spirit? Making you one spirit with him and did you know that ‘’your spirit actually died on that cross with Jesus,’’ you were there in spirit, for the spirit is not caught in time like us; the old you in spirit no longer exists, the new you is joined together with and in Christ Jesus, so as Jesus is, so are you for you are joined together as one spirit; and do you think that God would withhold anything from you who are now one with his son and now also one with him; scripture tells us we are ‘’God’s own righteousness.’’
2 Corinthians 5 King James Version (KJV)
Did you know that you were given the honour of being ambassadors for Christ, an ambassador represents his countries government and has diplomatic immunity in any country he goes representing his countries leader. He or she is
Another scripture actually says we are ‘’God’s own righteousness.’’ ‘’His’’ ‘’Own righteousness;’’ that’s amazing to even begin to think of what God has done for us; we are ‘the righteousness’ meaning that we are called by God ‘his own righteousness;’ ‘were his righteousness,’ that just blows your mind to think that as far as God is concerned ‘we are his righteousness,’ if ‘we are the righteousness of God’ then surely God sees no problem in giving us prosperity. How small is your thinking ability, is it so small that it cannot take in what God says he done for us his own divine children. I know that I would give my children everything I had if I had the ability or the means, would you?
Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making His appeal through us
21 for he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the ‘’righteousness’’ ‘’of God’’ ‘’in him.’’
Ambassadors for Christ
2 Corinthians 5 20 Berean Study Bible
Your old ‘’sin-loving nature’’ was buried with him by baptism when he died; and when God the Father, with glorious power, brought him back to life again, you were given ‘’his wonderful new life to enjoy.’’
an important person of great dignity. We are given this privilege to be a representative of the king of kings and the Lord of Lords; to represent Almighty God in this world, and that is in healing and miracles signs and wonders; we represent him, which means that we stand for, symbolize, embody, him.
Romans 6:4-living bible
We are him in embodiment, ‘’we are him,’’ as far as the other person is concerned, be they people or demons, or spirits of affliction or pain or suffering. As this next scripture explains, ‘we are him’ for we have been given the honour of being him as ‘one spirit living his new life’ and letting him live his new life in us. Things changed when Jesus died on the cross; for he arose with us in him, joined together with him as one spirit, and God then ‘gave us’ ‘’his wonderful new life to live;’’ most people don’t understand that Jesus changed when he died; for we died with him and when he rose from the dead he brought us with him in his divine body and he intended to fulfil the work of redemption using us in him to reach out to others in spirit bringing souls to heaven, no wonder Saint Paul said , it is no longer I who live but Christ Jesus who lives in me!
King James Version (KJV)
It isn’t just Saint Paul this refers to in the next scripture, though he understood what living Christ’s new life meant for him, and for us; this is also meaning us who are born again. This is something that was not taught in the churches I went to. I never heard that I died with Jesus when he died, and that I rose with him, and I am now a portion of him as a heavenly being in him, or that’s it’s his new life that he is living in me; I didn’t know that for years; no wonder I feel so much compassion for the sick; it is him living his life in me that is feeling that compassion, just like when he wandered through his country healing the sick and feeling compassion for people suffering sickness or disease. That same spirit is now within me.
1 John 5:1 Amplified Bible
Everyone who believes’’ [with a deep, abiding trust in the fact] that Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed) is born of God [that is, reborn from above spiritually transformed, renewed, and set apart for His purpose], and everyone who loves the Father also loves the child born of Him.
I have been crucified with Christ [that is, in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body I live by faith [by adhering to, relying on, and completely trusting] in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.
1 Corinthians 2Living Bible (TLB) 9 That is what is meant by the Scriptures which say that no mere man has ever seen, heard, or even imagined what wonderful things God has ready for those who love the Lord. 10 But we know about these things because God has sent his Spirit to tell us, and his Spirit searches out and shows us all of God’s deepest secrets.11 No one can really know what anyone else is thinking or what he is really like except that person himself. And no one can know God’s thoughts except God’s own Spirit.12 And ‘’God has actually given us his Spirit’’ (not the world’s spirit) to tell us about the wonderful free gifts of grace and blessing that God has given us
[Overcoming the World] ‘’
This is now us, God’s children, we are now, = spiritually transformed, renewed, and set apart for His purpose. There is so much going on here that I could get lost in the different scriptures for they are so amazing and awesome, to actually spend time absorbing all this into our minds, and our minds need to be transformed by the ‘’word of God’’ as you should know as a born again Christian child of the living God.
Wonderful ‘’free gifts’’ of ‘’grace and blessings’’ that God has given us
After you have read all these things that God has awesomely done for you surly you could now believe that he will give you prosperity and healing after all he gave his very own son to suffer and die for you.
It is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me; would the God who does all these awesome things for us not give us healing and prosperity?
Galatians 2:20 Amplified Bible
Amen
If you still cannot believe for prosperity and healing then you should check out which spirit is leading you, is it a religious spirit or the Holy Spirit.
