Listen Later

Forgiveness is the key to healthy relationships. Forgiveness is how we triumph and have victory in our own lives. Unforgiveness puts you in a cage. We become prisoners to our own unforgiveness. But as soon as we are willing to forgive, the door opens and we are released.

In the Lord's Prayer Jesus linked our forgiveness to our willingness to forgive others. That's hard. But my sin against a perfect God is much greater that anybody's sin against another imperfect person. There is power in repentance.

Sometimes we sin against ourselves. Then we must forgive ourselves. We must watch out. Pornography is sexual sin against yourself, your spouse (even if you are not married) and God. It is a form of adultery. Ask God for forgiveness and then forgive yourself. Then REPENT!

Money gives you lots of reasons to forgive other people. Money is the cause of much blessing and pain in this world.

God wants you and me to reign as kings in this life. One of the ways we need to learn to reign and rule is through money. When you reign in your life, money does not rule over you. You have to rule over your money. Money should not control you, you should control it.

Four principles to prosper:

1. Generosity: The more you give, the more you receive.

2. Contentment: The unwillingness to allow my lack or abundance to define my joy.

3. Excellence in purchases: Buy once, buy well.

4. Invest wisely: Let your money, make money.

Presented in English and Swahili.
