About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"OUR PROSPERITY PLEASES GOD" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
I GET SO TIRED OF PEOPLE WHO ARE ALWAYS COMPLAINING ABOUT PASTORS AND EVANGELIST HAVING A LOT OF MONEY. I AM SURE THERE ARE SOME THAT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE AND USE THE MONEY TO LINE THEIR POCKETS AND DON'T USE IT FOR GOD'S WORK BUT DON'T JUDGE THEM ALL. ONLY GOD KNOWS THEIR HEARTS. I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO ARE ALWAYS SAYING BAD THINGS ABOUT THEM DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT GOD'S WORD REALLY SAYS ABOUT THIS. LET ME GIVE YOU A SCRIPTURE ABOUT THIS AND SEE WHAT YOU THINK. IT IS PSALM 35:27 AND SAYS " Let them shout for joy , and be glad , that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant ."
NOW LET ME ASK YOU THIS, ARE YOU PROSPEROUS? YOU COULD BE BECAUSE GOD WANTS YOU TO BE AS IT PLEASES HIM. GOD HAS GIVEN US THE KNOWLEDGE, THROUGH HOLY SPIRIT, TO BECOME PROSPEROUS. GET INTO HIS WORD AND BUILD YOUR FAITH AND START RECEIVING WHAT GOD WANTS YOU TO HAVE.
GOD IS NOT CHEAP EITHER SO THE SKY IS THE LIMIT. LET'S JUST LOOK AT A FEW THINGS. JESUS SAID HE DID ONLY THE WILL OF HIS FATHER SO LET'S LOOK AT SOME OF THE THINGS JESUS DID. HOW ABOUT CHANGING WATER INTO WINE. HE DIDN'T JUST GIVE THEM A FEW BOTTLES OF WINE TO FINISH OUT THEIR WEDDING PARTY. HE GAVE THEM MUCH MORE. THE EXPERTS HAVE MEASURED OUT THE SIX WATER POTS AND HOW MUCH A "FIRKIN" IS. (JOHN 2:6 -7 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.) TH AT CAME OUT TO be ABOUT 162 GALLONS. THAT IS A LOT OF WINE.
ALSO LOOK AT WHEN JESUS WAS FEEDING THE FIVE THOUSAND AND THE FOUR THOUSAND, PLUS WOMEN AND CHILDREN. THAT WAS A LOT OF PEOPLE AND HE DID IT WITH A TOTAL OF 12 LOAVES OF BREAD AND A FEW FISHES. NOW, LOOK HOW MUCH THEY HAD LEFT OVER. IT WAS MORE THAN THEY STARTED WITH. THIS JUST SHOWS HOW GOD IS WILLING TO NOT ONLY MEET OUR NEEDS BUT TO GIVE US MUCH MORE.
IF YOU ARE ONE OF THE ONES USING YOUR FAITH AND ARE BEING BLESSED AND HAVE MORE THAN YOU NEED, USE YOUR FAITH FOR EVEN MORE. THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT HAVE NOT YET LEARNED TO LISTEN TO HOLY SPIRIT AND YOU CAN HELP THEM OUT. EVEN IF YOU DON'T HAVE MORE THAN YOU NEED, J ESUS SAYS IN LUKE 6:38 TO " Give , and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
I WILL LEAVE YOU WITH THIS VERSE THAT REALLY SAYS A LOT. (ACTS 20:35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak , and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive .) HE ALSO LOVES A CHEERFUL GIVER.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
GREAT WORDS WAYNE. I THANK YOU BECAUSE YOU ADD SO MUCH TO GOD'S WORD AND WHAT I AM TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH. JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY AND THE MORE WE CAN GET TO REALIZE THIS, THE BETTER THE WORLD WILL BE. MAY GOD BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY.

We judge with a level head/heart and by common sense. We do not condemn. Most likely abuse it ((Prosperity Preachers)) as they become accustomed to luxury and the worldly pride/ways. Only Christ was able to withstand the devil like no other. I am sure that some encouragement and some prosperity is a blessing when given by God and not come about from darkness. God knows their hearts. Some people have wealth by evil/darkness. Their soul is at risk of hell-fire and they are on borrowed time. I sense your frustration. Can you sense God's frustration with people preaching we came from animals/monkeys or a counterfeit gospel.
Atheists, they will NOT have the last laugh as they are judged and find out they were dead wrong/2nd death.
The great (unfortunate) thing is "if" there are prosperity preachers deceiving people for money that their actions will reinforce Satin's deception and "contribute" to the cause of unity of all those religions to form into the universal religion/government one day. This is God's will too as what is written MUST be fulfilled. Its sad but the truth.
Repent and believe on the gospel. Praise the lord.
Bless YOU David
