Why You Should Not Borrow

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

For the LORD your God will bless you as he has promised, and you will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. You will rule over many nations but none will rule over you. Deuteronomy Chapter 15 verse 6 

The Lord will open for you His good treasure house, the heavens, to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand; and you will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow. Deuteronomy Chapter 28 verse 12

But you shall remember [with profound respect] the Lord your God, for it is He who is giving you power to make wealth, that He may confirm His covenant which He swore (solemnly promised) to your fathers, as it is this day. Deuteronomy Chapter 8 verse 18

You are a lender to the nations. Why should a lender to the nations borrow especially when God says you will not borrow?  Secondly, the Bible says that God will give you power to get wealth. The Lord Who promises to give you power to get wealth will always ensure that wealth accrues to you so that you will always have more than enough to live on. But you must be productively engaged like the wise and faithful servants who received five and two talents each. They deployed the talents diligently and multiplied them. Beloved, if you are productively engaged in financially, mentally and spiritually rewarding activities, God will honor His word and bless all the work of your hands as stated in Deuteronomy Chapter 28 verses 12, 8; 30 verse 9, 24 verse 19, 23 verse 20, 16 verse 15, 15 verse 18, 10, 12 verses 7 and 18.  Additionally, God in His infinite mercies and wisdom will give you the wisdom you require to own unlimited financial resources so that you always operate in and walk in financial dominion. The Biblical King Solomon is a classic example.

Soul winning Births Wealth

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Soul winning is not struggling for positions but service to humanity – Luke Chapter 24. It  is about doing good to the people. You are a soul winner when lives are positively impacted for Christ. The gospel and not personal lives or wealth should be preached. Jesus had vision, mission statements and a clear job description – Luke Chapter 4. Jesus did not act independently. He acted on the father’s instruction based on the divine mandate he received. The presence of the Holy Spirit is Who you need to minister. If God is in it, then go ahead. Soul winning is not about crowd, it is about impact. The primary reason for Pentecost was for believers to become effective witnesses of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Pentecost was therefore designed for believers to receive power to become witnesses to God on a global scale To witness is to give evidence or be an evidence yourself, in this case proof of the resurrection of Jesus Christ in the lives of believers.  That is why the Holy Spirit was given to believers.

Jesus gave procedural instructions on how to bear witness of Him. First, from your home, in your community, nation and then on a global scale so that if you are effective witnesses at home, then you can succeed outside. To be an effective witness, your lifestyle should reflect the nature of Christ. The world out there does not see Jesus physically. They see Jesus through you (Acts Chapter 4 verse 13, John Chapter 1 verses 40 to 46). The world around you needs to see the character of Jesus in you. Your qualitative lifestyle – changed lifestyle in appearance, talk is a proof that Jesus is raised and is a tool for evangelism. There must be a clear difference in the behavior patterns of believers and unbelievers. We should live lives that other people can copy. What people want to see is the proof of your encounter with Christ (Romans Chapter 2 verse 24). It is one thing to proclaim the resurrection and another to reflect the glory of His resurrection. There must be a difference between a believer and an unbeliever in their lifestyles. This is what the Apostle Paul meant in 2^nd Corinthians Chapter 3 verses 1 to 3. Our lifestyles commend and recommend people to Christ. You are the Bible that those who have no access to the bible will ever read. Therefore, you must live the Christlike life. Jesus lived the life he preached and Jesus was teaching through His lifestyle. 1^st Corinthians Chapter 4 verse 16. Paul did not preach a single message. But the manner in which he handled the viper attack made the people refer to him as a god. Wherever you are, you are an open Bible that people need.

If your lifestyle does not support evangelism, then it is a blasphemy. As Christians, we are expected to live exemplary lifestyles that glorify God (Matthew Chapter 5 verse 14). Your lifestyle is the beginning of evangelism (Acts Chapter 1 verse 1). Some of us wear character masks (2^nd Thessalonians Chapter 3 verse 16). It is possible for a child of God to be a negative witness.

Pay Attention to Financial Abundance

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

What you pay attention to is what gives you direction. Reject every satanic suggestion, experiences, thoughts, imaginations, and ways of coping with lack. Rather, ask God for what you need and want instead of making do with what is available and run down, that ideally should be thrown away so that you get what works. Also, discard the lie of the devil that such times are periods of trials from the Lord when the devil is actually the one causing such lack in your life. Reject all these evils from the enemy, uproot and destroy them from your life and plant in God’s eternal structures of faithful provision and abundance in His word.  Please see Psalm 23, Deuteronomy Chapter 15 verse 6, 28 verses 11 to 13, 30 verse 9, 2^nd Corinthians Chapter 8 verses 9, Colossians Chapter 2 verses 13 to 15.

The God who gives you the power to get wealth, to be a lender to the nations, who became poor so that you will become rich, who wiped away every handwriting of poverty concerning you and who promises severally to bless the work of your hands (Deuteronomy Chapter 24 verse 19, 23 verse 20, 16 verse 15, 15 verses 1 to 18, 14 verse 29) is not the one behind financial lack in your life. It is the devil and that devil and his cohorts stand and remain rebuked by God and His Word to you concerning financial abundance.

This is the time for you to experience and walk in financial abundance. However, you need to pay prime attention to financial abundance. This is because as you pay attention to financial abundance, you will be directed in the paths of financial abundance, taught the principles of financial abundance, given great grace to implement and you will become the owner of great financial abundance. Please see Romans Chapter 8 verse 14, 1^st John Chapter 5 verses 14 to 15, John Chapter 10 verse 10.

God is not the one opposing you in your journey to financial independence. It is the devil and his cohorts. Match them force for force and eliminate to dispossess them. God did not create you to be poor, in lack, in debt and borrowing to live. He created you to prosper, be wealthy and to be happy. Whatever then limits you from prospering is not of God, is satanic and should be destroyed completely in Jesus mighty name. Therefore, destroy every opposition on your path, dispossess them and move on to the land of promise. Whoever, whatever comes out to attack you on your way to the land of promise is not of God, has no power over you as God has stripped them of all power to hurt you. Therefore, strike hard, eliminate them, dispossess them and move on to the land of promise on your knees. If ever there was a time to pray it is now. Eliminate the opposition in prayers as the Apostle Paul did to the wild beasts of Ephesus. Uproot and destroy the strongholds of satanic financial lack.
