God Answers Prayers

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Does God answer prayers? Yes. Are you sure? Definitely. But certainly not all prayers? How do you mean? Well, prayers to make wealth. Beloved, God answers such prayers and is waiting for you to ask. The God who gives you power to make as stated in His word answers prayers on wealth creation if prayed to Him by His children who desire to do so.

The Biblical Jabez born with quite a number of minuses petitioned God for a number of pluses including the plus of wealth creation. Please see 1^st Chronicles Chapter 4 verse 9 to 10. God honored that prayer and gave Jabez everything he requested for.

Jacob practically ran away from home without a dime after outsmarting his elder brother Esau to get the birthright. On Jacob’s way to Padan Aram, he requested wealth from God. Though Laban the Uncle he lived with at Padan Aram also tried to outwit Jacob severally; significantly, God blessed Jacob with overflowing wealth, some of which he shared with his brother Esau. Genesis  Chapter 28 verses 20 to 21 Genesis Chapter 33 verses 8 to 10.

The widow of the son of the indebted prophet also asked God for financial empowerment and provision when she took her woes of the family financial indebtedness which threatened debt bondage of her two sons to the Prophet Elisha. As she implemented the divine strategies given to her by God through Prophet Elisha for wealth creation, she discovered wealth and was free of financial lack and indebtedness. Please see 2^nd Kings Chapter 4 verses 1 to 7.

Beloved, God desires to bless His children with abundant wealth (see 2^nd Corinthians Chapter 8 verse 9 and 1^st Samuel Chapter 2 verses 7 to 8)  but the big question is, are His children willing to ask Him, pray to Him so that He will show and teach them how to accumulate such wealth? Please see Isaiah Chapter 28 verses 23 to 29.

Experience and Enjoy Greater Glory

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. The silver [is] mine, and the gold [is] mine, saith the LORD of hosts. The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts. Haggai Chapter 2 verse 7 to 9.

The Bible says that the glory of the latter house shall be greater than the former. This statement became necessary because the elders of Israel who saw the first Temple that was destroyed were not very happy with the new one.  The first temple was splendid, beautiful, and expensive, a masterpiece and fortunately the people worshipped God, praised Him from the depths of their hearts and His glory filled the temple. It was therefore a beautiful masterpiece crowned with the presence of God. Please see 2^nd Chronicles Chapter 5 verses 12 to 14, 7 verses 1 to 14, Zechariah Chapter 8 verses 20 to 23, 14 verse 14.  Overtime, the people of Israel sinned and turned away from following God to following idols. God punished them and they were overrun by Babylon, the temple was destroyed and they were taken away from their land into captivity in Babylon.

Choose Global Desirability

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

God is the author of global desirability in the life of anyone. He does it by giving the person destined for global desirability His glory. Please see Haggai Chapter 2 verses 6 to 9 and Isaiah Chapter 60 verses 1 to 22. This glory of God usually manifest through His Presence in the life of a person. The Bible records that God was with Joseph, Isaac, Abraham, David as well as a number of other successful Biblical characters and this holy Presence in the life of a person manifests in a number of ways.

For David, it was military prowess; Joseph, it was the gift of problem solving through the word of knowledge and wisdom coupled with his sincere commitment to God. Daniel was also blessed with this gift and rose to global desirability, relevance and prominence. He was greatly sought after by Kings Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar and Darius.

A person, institution, product or service can be globally visible yet not desirable. But when God is with you and His presence and glory is in you, He makes you globally visible and desirable as in the case of Joseph. There is a difference between global visibility and global desirability. A person, institution, product or service can be globally visible because of the opportunities or privileges available to occupy global platforms or space yet may not be globally desirable; that is liked, accepted or wanted. In such cases, global visibility is of no use really. What is the essence of being known globally and yet not desired, therefore not relevant and significant? But global visibility accompanied by global desirability culminates in significance and relevance which ultimately translates to dominance if managed wisely as instructed by God through His Holy Spirit.

Roll Away the Stone of Poverty

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.  Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been [dead] four days.John Chapter 11 verses 38 to 39.

Lazarus is an abstraction for the name Eliezer meaning God has helped. This means that instant help at all times from God was available to Lazarus yet he fell sick, died and was buried because Jesus Christ did not show up when Lazarus was sick. Eventually, Jesus arrived and was taken to the tomb where Lazarus lay almost beginning to rot. The stone covering the tomb blocked entrance into the tomb therefore no one could access Lazarus. Jesus then ordered that the stone should be rolled away.  The stone constituted a blockade. Until the stone was removed, Jesus could not intervene and when the stone was removed at the command of Jesus Christ, Jesus intervened. The stone was blocking Lazarus’ exit from the tomb which explains why Jesus commanded the stone to be rolled away.

Beloved, this implies that open gates grant access to miracles. Miracles of course differ but for this article, the focus is on the miracle of abundant wealth to people who hitherto had never known or accessed wealth. Please see Isaiah Chapter 60 verses 11 to 13 for an understanding of how open gates translates to the transference of wealth. Wealth cannot be transferred if the gates that the wealth will pass through are barricaded by a stumbling stone. Stumbling stones may not necessarily be physical. They could be spiritual and mental or either.

Unbelief and doubt can constitute great stumbling blocks to wealth if they are not rolled away like the stone at the tomb. This is because unbelief makes people doubt the word of God and therefore disobey God’s instructions to make wealth. Additionally unbelief denies people the precious presence of the Holy Spirit Who helps people make wealth by directing them on what to do with regards to who to associate with and where to be or go to in order to make wealth. In Luke Chapter 1 verse 45, the Bible records that the word of God to Mary was performed because she believed. The performance of God’s word and His promises on abundant wealth is therefore a function of your belief. To roll away the stone of poverty, whether generational or not, it is your responsibility to drop the filthy garments of unbelief so that your faith can become stronger.

Give Commercial Value to Your Imagination

 Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Your imagination is one of your intangible assets. Intangible assets are the seeds of God in you for increase. They are meant to generate tangible assets. That is to say that you birth tangible assets with your intangible assets.

Your imagination can become a wealth plaza if the wildest runs of your imagination are properly harnessed to create wealth. Jacob was severally short changed by Laban. Rather than complain, murmur, grumble, wish Laban evil or even curse Laban in his heart or in the fields where he shepherded the flocks of Laban, steal from Laban; Jacob chose to put his imagination to very brilliant use. He collated the strings of ideas on how to come up with streaked animals out of non streaked animals, experimented and succeeded in growing a large number of animals that made him wealthy. Jacob gave commercial value to his imagination and created great wealth. He shared some of the wealth with his twin brother Esau and still had much. That gives an idea of how much wealth the positive use to which he put his imagination generated.
