The Bible has a lot to say about money, finances, and how to care for our bodies. Jesus talked about money in 16 of His 38 parables. In these parables, He discussed how to handle both our money and our possessions. In the four Gospels, 1 out of every 10 verses directly relates to money or possessions.
Regarding our health and bodies, we see God’s initial thoughts and declarations going all the way back to the garden when He proclaimed that mankind was “made in His image, and [that] it was good.”
Is there a connection between Health and Wealth?
More than likely you have heard something similar to the following statements:
Today, there seems to be a myriad of investment opportunities, as well as there are diets. The information can be conflicting, but possibly the most heartbreaking is that Christians today are living with debt, financial burdens, chronic health issues, depression, and anxiety, to name just a few.
The enemy is wreaking havoc on God’s children, attempting to chain them down with heavy yokes. But the Word of God says that we are victorious! So how do these two seemingly opposing circumstances come together?
We will unpack what the Bible has to say about both of these subjects and look at where to go for practical application.
At points in our lives, we all desire promotion in and through God. After all, promotion in God brings deeper relationship with Him, and promotion in our call allows us to do more for Him. Additionally, promotion, when coming from God, brings great favor. However, one thing we tend to overlook is that both promotion and favor come with responsibilities.
Join us below as we discover:
Promotion can come from God or from man. However, while there may be similarities within both types of promotion, only promotion from God comes with pure, long-lasting benefits.
When man promotes us without the prompting of God and we take it—thinking it is from God or not—we may still find a level of favor, but it will be nothing like the unmerited favor of God. Further, it is going to be much more difficult to maintain, to find joy in, to be led by the Holy Spirit and to find rest in it. Basically, it has no lasting place because it was not meant to be a stop on our journey—even if God’s promotion for us was to be similar.
Yet, when God brings promotion as we are listening and abiding in the place where He desires us to receive it… miracles happen. We are granted strength to do things for and in God that we thought were beyond us. We are able to stay the course, to find joy, peace, and rest even in the trying days, as the Holy Spirit guides us. Additionally, we are blessed with unmerited favor—favor not earned, beyond what should be our portion, and often leading to supernatural results or acceleration.
This favor is the sort that causes us to stare wide-eyed at what is going on; overwhelmed that God would move in such ways to bless us and those around us. That He would use us.
Unmerited favor is beautiful, and while it is a perfect gift from God, it is important to keep our hearts and eyes ultimately fixed on Him so that we do not get lost in seeking what is in His hand.
PROMOTION leads to FAVOR, both of which lead to RESPONSIBILITY!
Still, what does promotion and favor mean for us?
Well, it means that we have resources and connections to do the things God would have us do. It means that we are less likely to waste time on unimportant things, as God opens doors of favor. It means that because we are not qualified for the position God has put us in, He gets all the glory. It means that we are not in the same season as before, that we have shifted into a new season with God. And it means that more is expected of us in our behavior, words, and thoughts. That we have a greater level of responsibility; not only in our walk with God, but with those He puts in our path.
Do you desire God’s glory to manifest in your life? Would you like to learn more about the glory of God? Then join us below as we discover not only what God’s glory is, but how God has promised us access to His glory!
From the pages of Genesis to Revelation God’s promises are written. Many of them we know—at least partly—yet, by examining the Word, we discover that they are more numerous and wonderful than we could ever imagine!
“In Jesus we hear a resounding ‘yes’ to all of God’s many promises. This is the reason we say ‘Amen’ to and through Jesus when giving glory to God.”—2 Corinthians 1:20 (VOICE)
“God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?”—Numbers 23:19
Every one of God’s promises is sure, and through Him we have a right to access them. However, to do so we first need to understand what His promises include…
The Jewish Roots and the One New Man have become a movement of understanding and reclaiming the forgotten heritage of Christianity, and many Believers are experiencing a transformation in their faith through this revelation.
The Jewish Roots of Christianity is not so much about a new movement, as it is about remembering that the God we serve—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—is never changing. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
The Lord doesn’t want you to carry a heavy burden and remain in a stagnant state of faith. He desires for you to grow, mature in your faith, and experience more of Him.
Let’s begin by defining Jewish Roots and One New Man…
“The sight of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.”—Exodus 24:17
The glory of God is mentioned and described throughout scripture. Sometimes it is described as fire, and other times is it is described as an abundant provision and divine direction.
In the Westernized culture, the glory of God is an abstract concept nearly impossible to explain or understand.
However, when you study the Hebraic meaning of God’s glory, you begin to see and experience it in a new way—a way that will transform your faith.

What does it mean that you are created in Christ for good works, which were prepared for you beforehand (Ephesians 2:10)?
Maybe you were taught to understand your weaknesses so that you can strengthen them. But I want to challenge you to think differently.
Instead of focusing on your weaknesses, focus on your identity in Christ and the strengths He gave you.
Knowing your identity and identifying your God-given talents reveals your purpose.
You are God’s creation. He finely crafted you, paying close attention to every detail. There is no mistake; you were created for a good work that God had in mind before time began.
There is a specific purpose He has with you in mind to do it. This means that you, as His workmanship and creation, have a unique opportunity.
You might ask…
We all go through hard times, disappointments, and even setbacks or delays. When faced with these challenges it is easy to feel sorry for ourselves, our family, circumstances, etc., or to complain about the way things appear. Yet, WHAT we focus on during such times has the power to change not only our circumstances but how long we remain in valleys.
Join us below as we discover how to rise above and find solace and victory in praise!

We can all agree that we are in a season of great shaking and awakening. Our nation is under immense spiritual attack, and the Church must rise to its call and position of authority.
“We’re in very desperate times, to be honest with you. This is one of the most critical times that the Church has ever been in. And whatever happens over the next three to six months will determine the next decade of the Church and the future of America.”—Dr. Kynan Bridges.
Dr. Kynan Bridges, Senior Pastor of Grace and Peace Global Fellowship, and Curt Landry will discuss a recent dream Dr. Bridges had about President Trump and how Believers should be praying for protection during this critical time.
Dr. Kynan Bridges explains that the ancient foundations of this nation are under attack, but God has positioned President Trump as the protector of these foundations.
Why is the president in this position of protection?
Ultimately, the president is positioned to protect because of God’s grace and mercy. The Lord is forming a wall of protection around the Church so that we can rise to our call and make an eternal impact in this season.
God is calling upon His covenant with His people, asking us to intervene during this season of spiritual attack.
Dr. Kynan Bridges explains the revelation that came from the dream, “There are different layers of security which represent divine protection… because security is always in proportion to the level of threat. The higher the threat the stronger the security.”
Do you feel as if you are in a season of “waiting upon the Lord?”
Isaiah 40:31 says…
Many of us face this problem: we think of waiting upon the Lord as doing nothing, expecting blessings to fall into our laps.
However, this is not the way of the Father. He operates in terms of covenant relationship. He wants to ensure that when He places His blessings upon you, that they will be used to further His Kingdom and bring you closer to Him.
He does not want you to take the blessing and store it up. This would be no different from sowing a seed and then covering it so that it doesn’t receive water or sun. It would eventually die. He cares too much about you and others to allow this to happen.
So then, many times when it feels you are waiting upon the Lord, He is actually waiting on you to pray His Word, opening up Heaven to rain blessings upon the earth.
On the other hand, the enemy wants you to get frustrated in the waiting, doubting that God’s Word will come to pass.
