Wealth

My Manna

"But the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous." Prov 13:22.

In the last days there will be a transfer of wealth into the hands of the righteous for the purpose of-

- funding a great harvest of souls and

- for believers to have greater influence on society in the name of Christ.

This will happen in at least four ways:

1. Supernatural Transfer

Like the Israelites leaving Egypt, Christians and non-profit organizations will receive major gifts from individuals or foundations to carryout their Christian mission.

2. Strength to Make Wealth

God is going to give witty inventions to believers throughout the world that will generate wealth.

This has already begun.

"But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your forefathers, as it is today." Deut 8:18.

3. Social Entrepreneurship

Just as Joseph was entrusted with the resources of Egypt to solve a societal problem resulting from a famine in the land, God is going to transfer money to believers who are solving societal problems.

Governments will fund private enterprises because government is not been able to do it.

4. Sincere Conversions

Finally, many non-believers who are wealthy will become Christians in these last days and will begin to use their wealth for Kingdom purposes.

The transfer of wealth is designed to accelerate God's activity on the earth, not to simply make believers wealthy. 

Pray that God uses your work life call to accelerate His Kingdom on earth.

And pray that God raises up good stewards of wealth.

We are like eagles;we have the spirit of the eagles

My Manna

"But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:31.

While walking through the forest one day, a farmer found a young eagle who had apparently fallen out of his nest.

He took it home and put it in his barnyard with his chickens and there it stayed for years.

It wasn't long before the little eagle learned to eat and behave like the chickens.

One day a naturalist passed by the farm and saw the eagle confined in the barnyard with the chickens.

When he inquired about this strange sight, the farmer told the man his story.

"Unfortunately," said the farmer, "the poor little guy just never learned to fly." 

"Still," the naturalist sighed, "he has the heart of an eagle and can surely be taught. Will you allow me to work with him?"

The farmer agreed, but with much disbelief.

The naturalist picked up the eagle and lifted him toward the sky and said, "You belong to the sky and not to the earth. Stretch forth your wings and fly." 

The eagle, however, was confused.

He did not know who he was, and seeing the chickens eating their food, he jumped down to be with them again.

The naturalist took the bird to the roof of the house and urged him again, saying, "You are an eagle. Stretch forth your wings and fly."

But the eagle was afraid and jumped down once again to be with his chicken friends.

Finally the naturalist took the eagle out of the barnyard to a high mountain.

There he held the king of the birds high above him and encouraged him again, saying, "You are an eagle. You belong to the sky. Stretch forth your wings and fly!" 

The eagle looked around, back towards the barnyard and then up to the sky.

Slowly, he stretched his wings, and with a triumphant cry, he soared away into the heavens.

Somewhere along the line, we like this poor young eagle, were put in a lowly barn with the chickens of the world around us.

We learned to live and eat from the ground and grew up believing that there was not much more to do than sit and cluck all day.

But the reality is that we are eagles!

We were created to fly and even soar!

God has great purpose for our lives!

If we would only realize who we are in Him!

Let's remember who we are today and stop acting like chickens! 

We are the head and not the tail!

We are Kings and Priests!

We have great things to do for the Kingdom!
