YOUR CAPTIVITY BY POVERTY HAS ENDED

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour.” (Luke 4:18-19)

Do you know that in Christ you are always in the place of the year of the Lord’s favour?  There is never a time that you are outside of the blessing of God.  You are blessed wherever you go and in whatever you do.  Deuteronomy 28 says, “You are blessed in the city and in the country.”  In fact, read the entire chapter because if what it says gets into your spirit, you will never worry about a thing again.

David said, “I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread.”

This is the good news that there is in Christ.  The blessing of the Lord shines upon you and you are a blessing in the earth.

Jesus came into the earth and announced that He was sent to bring the good news to the poor and that He was setting the captives free and proclaiming favour over their lives (Luke 4:18-19).  My God, did you hear that?  Your captivity by poverty has ended in Christ and as long as you obey the voice of God, you will walk in prosperity.

There is oppression in the earth, but this oppression cannot come near my tent.  Even in drought and famine my family will be fine, because I am in Christ.  And when He speaks and I listen, my prosperity is secure.

I don’t care if a hundred Christians are not living in prosperity. It does not change His word for my life.  As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord and be a sign and a wonder for the nations to see.  Just watch my life.  Just watch the blessing arise on my family.  I tell you that you have seen nothing yet.  There is greater blessing coming to us yet.  Not because I am anything, but because my God is King and His word is truth and He cannot lie.

I don’t worry when my bank account looks bad.  I get excited because I know a miracle is on the way.  I know that He has to provide all my needs according to His riches in Glory and trust me, I have seen that glory.

I remember before I was married, I saw the treasure house of heaven in a dream.  Just before I got there, I was walking in heaven when this vibrant old man walked up to me and said, “Go to the treasury and get enough for your journey.”   This was none other than Father God.

When I got into the treasury, it was filled with gold.  I was inside of a huge room the size of a gymnasium and there was gold piled to the ceiling.  Out of the middle of it arose a spirit of mammon that came toward me as a giant hand.  It was going to destroy me and consume me, but I raised my hand to it and spoke to it and said, “The Father said that I can have enough for my journey.”

The hand broke off and fell beside me and formed a giant golden tiger that looked more alive than any creature I had ever seen before.  It then changed into a giant angel and started walking with me.

I have understood from that time to this that I have no financial problems at all.  I know that God will take care of every math problem that I have.  He will also meet me in the place of faith and provide for all my dreams in Him.  I dream of reaching the world for Christ and He will empower me to do it.  I also dream of providing for those that do not have such faith, but still want to reach the world for Christ.  I will provide for the ones God guides me to as well.  This I have done and will do in Christ.

You also can be empowered to accomplish great things in Christ.  Just believe…all things are possible if you only believe.
