Poverty is when our spirit, soul and body is infected with the decay of foolishness. The infection of a poverty spirit creates an imbalance that inhibits our ability to submit to God. This is called rebellion. All rebellion is foolishness and striving against the wisdom and ways of God.The poverty spirit does not overpower us and make us submit to it and rebel against God. It simply lies to us and waits for us to believe the lies.Bible Reading:1 Kings 10; 2 Corinthians 10:3-6
