#Recap
Faith
- # Faith is critical if we hope to receive anything from God. It is the evidence of the things that we hope for.
- # This means that we hold on to what God says about your prosperity regardless of current circumstances.
- # Your words are reflections of what you believe. Do not nullify your faith with your confession of lack and poverty. Confess your expectations, not your experiences.
- # If you believe that God has prospered you, it will show in your actions. Confession is not enough - make a move!
- Grace
- # Grace is God's divine ability and resources put at your disposal. It is triggered by faith.
- # Without grace, success and prosperity are a struggle. Grace allows you to achieve and become more than you could by your labour.
- # There is an element to true prosperity that cannot be fully explained naturally. This dimension is the grace of God.
Two (2) Things That Will Release Grace
- Humility - A proud man cannot receive grace because he does not believe that he needs it. Humility is evidenced in the willingness to learn and start small.
- Generosity - To enjoy grace, you must give with a willing heart. Giving breaks the hold of money on your life and sets you up to receive.
The Blessing
- # God's blessing brings prosperity that cannot be achieved by your human efforts.
- # One way to activate the blessing of the covenant is tithing. It acknowledges God as our source and positions us to enjoy prosperity.
