Proverbs 11:10 - When the righteous prosper, the city rejoices; when the wicked perish, there are shouts of joy.

Jesus desires above all things that the righteous prosper, and be in health even as our souls prosper in Him.

Prosperity is the the same as the Hebrew word "Shalom" which is peace, end of strife, quietness, rest, happiness, victory, safety, restoration, wholeness, completeness in mind, body and estate. Prosperity goes far beyond material possessions.

Jesus is our Shalom.

Acts 10:38 says that He went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.

Jesus is also working with us to advance His Kingdom in the earth, and confirming His Word with signs following.

When you know who you are, and your Righteousness in Christ you can also do good, relieve oppression, defeat oppressors and establish Jesus peace and advance His Kingdom. We walk in Jesus' authority to bring both restitution and restoration to the oppressed.

God prospers our Word as we speak His Word, and we operated as Children of God and ambassadors of Jesus Christ, and we bring blessing and prosperity to the city, just as He did when he walked the earth.

As He is, so are we in this world.

But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith; but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance, persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra—what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me. Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

2 Timothy 3-4

"This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him." John 2:11

Miracles are one way Jesus manifests His Glory. These manifestations also inspire disciples to believe. They have an intended purpose to satisfy the hungry, but they are not for the purpose of flamboyance or to gratify the curious.

Miracles can be worked only in an atmosphere of hunger, expectation, humility, and obedience as our expression of faith. (Just as Mary told the servants at the wedding, "Whatever Jesus tells you to do, just do it!")

This message outlines several accounts of Jesus working miracles, and how Jesus provoked people to express their faith in a specific way. When He does this in our lives, it's always to draw us to a higher level of expectation, and not limiting our expectation of what we can see or handle with our natural mind. Through simple obedience to the unction within, or instruction through a minister of the gospel, we are able to release our supernatural faith and cooperate in the working of miracles.

The carnal mind, self centered, and religious never express genuine hunger or expectation; their pride robs them of the opportunity to work miracles. This is why Jesus often rebuked them for their hard heartedness, and even shut them out of the room when He performed miracles.

The working of miracles is a gift of the Holy Spirit and is freely available to any believer. It only requires is a humble heart, obedience to faith, and a confidence that Jesus is able and willing to do exceeding and abundantly above all we ask or think.

We cannot allow ourselves to be discouraged or hard-hearted about the conditions in the World. Jesus has sent us out to preach the Good News of the Gospel to all the world. The Gospel of Jesus Christ IS THE Power of God unto salvation for all who believe. We have been given the answer that the World needs.

Not only have we been commissioned to preach the Gospel, but the Lord as promised to work with us, and confirm the Word of the gospel with signs following.

These signs include healing the sick, casting out devils, and authority over death. We must be bold in our faith in Jesus that He will confirm the Word ministered in faith.

We are witnesses of His goodness and His saving grace. Our testimony provides evidence that He is alive. God desires that we stir ourselves in the confidence in Him, and faith to see people hungry for Him - a field ripe for harvesting.

Don't Let Go of Your Holding on.

"The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." - James 5:16

“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know.”

Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

John 14:1-6

“Therefore I say unto you, take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

Behold the fowls of the air, for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

“Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?

And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They toil not, neither do they spin, and yet I say unto you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Therefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

Therefore take no thought, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘Wherewith shall we be clothed?’

(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek.) For your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

But seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.
