MAKING YOUR WAY PROSPEROUS.
Sunday, May 4th.
Pastor CHRIS
This book of the law shall not depart
out of thy mouth; but thou shalt
meditate therein day and night, that
thou mayest observe to do according
to all that is written therein: for then
thou shalt make thy way prosperous,
and then thou shalt have good success
(Joshua 1:8).
God wants you to prosper in every
area of your life, for He delights in the
prosperity of His children (Psalm
35:27). 3 John 1:2 reveals the Spirit’s
wish for you to prosper and be in
health, even as your soul prospers. In
Christ Jesus, you’ve come into a rich
heritage; a place of divine favour. 2
Peter 1:3 tells us that the Lord has
given you all things that pertain to life
and godliness.
Indeed, when you received Christ you
were automatically catapulted into a
glorious realm of prosperity and
became an heir of God, and a joint heir
with Christ (Romans 8:17). However,
Galatians 4:1 says, "...the heir, as long
as he is a child, differeth nothing from
a servant, though he be lord of all...."
In other words, though you’re a joint
heir with Christ, and all of God’s wealth
and inestimable riches belong to you,
you have to grow in the Word unto
maturity to enjoy the benefits of your
inheritance.
This is where meditating on the Word
and putting it to work in your life
comes to play. As you meditate on the
Scriptures, the Word is seasoned in
your spirit, such that you think, talk,
and live the Word. The Bible shows
this to us as the way to make your way
prosperous: it’s by meditating on the
Word, and observing to do what it
says. Now, this isn’t just referring to
financial prosperity, but prosperity all-
round; in every aspect of your life.
The Apostle Paul, in 1 Timothy 4:15,
reiterated the same truth: "meditate
upon these things; give thyself wholly
to them; that thy profiting may appear
to all." When you meditate on God’s
Word, your progress, advancement,
prosperity, success will spread abroad,
and be evident for all to see. This
means that the extent of your success
and prosperity is entirely dependent
on you. To prosper in all you do—in
your job, family, health, finances,
marriage, etc— continually meditate on
the Word. This is His divine road map
for true and lasting prosperity.
PRAYER
I thank you, precious heavenly Father,
for my great heritage in Christ; thank
you for setting me up for a life of
endless victories, and sustained
prosperity! As I study and meditate on
your Word, my success and prosperity
are evident, and spread abroad, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.
