THE PURPOSE OF PROSPERITY (1): TO FULFILL HIS COVENANT
But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
Deuteronomy 8:18 (KJV)
The purpose of anything is the most important part of that thing. Dr Myles Munroe remarked that when purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable. This is particularly true, when it comes to the issue of prosperity. So many people are abusing prosperity because they don’t know the purpose of Yahweh for bringing them into possessions of things. We are going to outline the purpose of Yahweh for manifesting prosperity in our lives. The Lord established a covenant with Abraham to bless him and through him bless all the families of the earth. It was a covenant and Yahweh is committed to His Word if man meets the demands of the covenant. Till date, Abraham descendants according to the flesh are such blessed people that evoke envy amongst their neighbours. The covenant is not only restricted to the descendants of Abraham according to the flesh for the Word says that the seed of Abraham is HaMashiach. Galatians 3:16 says, “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many? but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.” As many as are in HaMashiach are Abraham’s seed and therefore, heirs according to the promise. Till date the Lord Yahweh is still prospering His people according to that covenant. He does it to establish His covenant that He made with Abraham. That should humble you.
