There is a difference between speaking those things that are not as though they were and lying. In fact, when we declare what the Word of God says about our situation, regardless of what it looks like, we are demonstrating our faith. There is a difference between truth and facts. Facts are ever-changing, but truth—the truth of God’s Word—remains constant. Although the fact may be that you are living from paycheck to paycheck right now, the truth is that Jesus paid for your peace—your well being, wholeness, and prosperity—on the cross. You can change the facts surrounding your circumstances by placing your focus on the truth of God’s Word rather than the problem. John 10:10 in The Amplified Bible says, “… I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).”

Poverty is a spirit that comes from Satan, who is the father of lies. It grieves me to see this spirit operating in the lives of Believers. It is not the will of God for His children to be “broke, busted, and disgusted.” Every Christian has a blood-bought right to wealth and riches (Psalm 66:12; Psalm 112:3; Proverbs 13:22). Sadly, many have chosen to believe the lie that “money is the root of all evil” or that it is ungodly to have material possessions. However, 1 Timothy 6:10 says that it is the love of money—a wrong relationship with it—that is the root of all evil. And Ephesians 2:10 in The Amplified Bible makes it clear that God has predestined you to live “the good life.”

Ask yourself this question: “Is the spirit of poverty operating in my life?” If you are unsure of the answer, answer “yes” or “no” to the following statements to help you identify whether or not it is.

•I am quick to justify or make excuses for my financial situation.

•I am afraid to give offerings under the direction of the Holy Spirit.

•I govern my finances out of fear. I am afraid that if I tithe or give, I won’t have enough money left over.

•I don’t recognize God as my Source.

•I am critical of those who preach the “prosperity message.”

•I am suspicious of wealthy Christians—especially those who call themselves ministers.

•I often wonder, “Does it take all of that?”

If you answered yes to any of these statements, then begin to renew your mind with scriptures such as Joshua 1:8, Psalm 35:27, Deuteronomy 8:18, and 3 John 1:2. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God (Romans 10:17). When you speak and hear the Word concerning prosperity, your mind will be transformed from your old way of thinking. You will begin to see yourself as the Father sees you—prosperous!

You are what God says you are, and you can have all that He says you can have. Decide today to make the Word of God the final authority in your life and watch His promises of prosperity begin to manifest!
