Progressive Financial Increase

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Progressive increase is a function of progressive processes, Isaac planted seed, reaped a hundredfold and God blessed him and he began to prosper, continued prospering until he became very prosperous – he had great number of flocks, herds and servants. Please, see Genesis Chapters 26 verses 12 to 14; 8 verse 22 and Psalm 85 verse 12.

Progressive increase is not a one off activity but a series of progressive processes that birth increases that add up, multiply and compound into progressive increases. God works in diverse and mysterious ways. One of such ways is through progressive processes – the creation of the universe and everything in it was a series of progressive processes. All power belongs to God and it is possible for Him to create everything in an instant yet He chose progressive processes. There must be very significant reasons for doing so. Please see Genesis Chapter 1. Also, the building of Noah’s ark was a series of progressive processes (Genesis Chapter 6). So also was the filling of the ark with living things. Even the flood that destroyed the earth was not instantaneous. It was a series of progressive activities – the breaking up of the fountains of the great deep, the opening up of the windows of heaven and the rain that fell for forty days and forty nights. In like manner the drying up of the earth and reconstruction was also a series of progressive activities. Please see Genesis Chapters 7, 8 and 9. Even the release of the Israelites from Egyptian slavery and bondage was a series of progressive activities that cowed Pharaoh into releasing the Israelites to leave Egypt. The journey through the wilderness to the Promised Land was yet another series of progressive activities.

Progressive increase therefore does not happen in an instant. God promised Abraham descendants as numerous as the sand of the sea. This did not happen in an instant. Over a period of time, the descendants came through Isaac, the child of promise.

Financial increase, fame and power came to Joseph, a descendant of Abraham through a series of progressive activities and events that appeared to be huge obstacles in his path. Eventually, Joseph emerged a global leader, a governor of great wealth and a father of two nations within the nation of Israel.

Decide to be Wealthy 2

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

While poverty can be multi dimensional, the tools for eliminating poverty are also multidimensional. Therefore if poverty shows up as financial poverty, you start the elimination process by cultivating and maintaining a fervent relationship with God, repent of all the known and unknown sins that festered poverty in your lineage (most times poverty is generational), in you and  then ask God for what to do. You can start from the Bible where the promises of God concerning financial abundance are myriad. Please see Deuteronomy Chapter 15 verse 6, 28 verses 12 and 13, 2^nd Corinthians Chapter 8 verse 9, 3^rd John 1 and 2.

Certainly, there is a spiritual dimension to challenges but that dimension can be addressed spiritually by dealing with the spirits and satanic beings behind the oppression through the blood of Jesus Christ rather than dancing around the spiritual oppression through divination, complacency, pity parties and what have you. Complacency is actually quicksands. It sinks you deep into a rut where you are hampered by the inability to get out of whatever rut you need to get out of.

You can break out of poverty if you make up your mind to do so irrespective of the odds stacked against you. You can start now and immediately reject and renounce poverty no matter how long poverty has resided in your lineage. You can do this by a reorientation from generational mindsets regarding poverty and wealth. Study generational expenditure patterns, income generating patterns, wealth creation mentality, what people recourse to when faced by challenges. Do the members of this family ever seek out their divine purposes on earth? Do they exist to eat and breed children, with no generational impact on humanity other than just eat and breed children? Do they celebrate poverty as a mark of righteousness and piety? Poverty is not a mark of righteousness and piety. It is a mark of satanic opposition.
