Title: Christian Prosperity
It can be seen that fortune has two dimensions.
The first is material and temporal blessings,
Second, it is a blessing on the spiritual and afterlife level.
1. What is Prosperity?
◆ Prosperity is not according to my will, but by God's will.
God alone is omnipotent, omniscient, and faithful.
◆ What is good in God's sight
All things are revealed in God's eyes, but human eyes are neither accurate nor true.
◆ Progress without hesitation
According to God's plan, the Red Sea and the Jordan River were also divided and allowed to pass through Israel.
2. What is the best way to live a prosperous life?
① Ask the Lord every day.
The Lord is all-powerful and knows all the ways we prosper.
Let's ask him the way to prayer.
② Let's follow the Lord's instructions.
“If you listen carefully to the word of the LORD - if you listen carefully”
The word of the Lord is like a lamp that illuminates the way we should go.
Therefore, when we obey the Word, we can go on the path of prosperity.
“The Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”
Above all, 'obedience' is suggested as a prerequisite for receiving God's abundant blessings.
There are two ways for those who want to follow the Lord's instructions.
◆ Wait for the guidance of the Holy Spirit in the Word.
◆ Praying in the Word
③ Leave everything to the Lord.
With imperfect knowledge and abilities, we cannot do everything properly.
Therefore, we must completely surrender our lives to the perfect God.
Those who believe in God's guidance and entrust everything to Him do not stand still, but realize His will and strive to obey Him.
3. Wherever you go, you are with God.
'Seongeup' is always crowded with people, and various events and rumors are quickly passed from mouth to mouth.
To receive a blessing in such a place means to receive an open and great blessing that can be known by all people.
A 'field' is a secluded place with very few people.
To receive a blessing in such a place is to receive God's blessing in private, even though others may not know it.
The prosperity of Christians is perhaps not the prosperity of nothing.
Shalom's prosperity.
Whatever happens, leave it to God's will, wait and give thanks.
