God ever more opening our minds in the fashion of an oyster, continues to teach us of this prosperity that is intrinsic to His nature. He declared through the prophet Isaiah: "So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it"
(Isa 55:11, NKJV). Man is a prototype of God's Word, exquisitely and quintessentially created in His image. In looking like His maker even dared to become like Him, man has been given the key to overcome all odds. He was put here on earth by God to prosper in all of his endeavors.
In becoming like God who does not fail, man must be certain that his gaze, even though blurred by the flurry of darkness pouring like an avalanche around him, does not contaminate what he sees of God in himself in the river of life. Therefore, to see God crystal clear, is to see His love - His heart - which pushes Him to do what He does. Man must allow himself to be so driven by such a love that in all he lays his hands to do, he thinks of only what would bring his Maker satisfaction and joy. In God's joy is where true strength is found. We are thus exhorted, to: Love the Lord our God with all our heart and with all our soul (see Deut 6:5, Mat 22:37). Those who love God because of their understanding of His goodness will not fail to continuously rise like the awakening of the sun from the eastern sky. They will spread their light and forever shine as their paths get brighter and brighter until the noon day (see Prov 4:18).God is building heaven on earth, the city of Jerusalem. Scripture says: "Peace be within your walls, Prosperity within your palaces." For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will now say, “Peace be within you" (Ps 122:7-8, NKJV).
Those who long for God's kingdom will find joy only in doing good, producing light and positivity. The potency of light is said to be much more stronger than its opposite force - darkness. Light never fails to shine, it is only in its absence that darkness finds the elbow room to corrupt and spread like a virus whose vaccine hasn't been discovered yet.
Prosperity is for God's children. Just as God cannot fail, those whose journey is to reach a destination of becoming like Him must aspire to such a feat. They must open up their minds like chansonettes at day and not be limited by their lexicon - obtuse as it is - which dumbs down prosperity to material or financial gain. They must understand that God desires to see them prosper in spirit, soul and body: in wisdom, health, knowledge, education, vision, peace, career choices, and everything good mind can conceive, thereby beating darkness to a pulp.
Just as John was called to pass through a door in the book of revelation (see Rev 4:1), God has reserved a door or some doors for you in the spirit realm. "And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”
(Mt 16:19 NKJV). What is required for success on man's behalf is asking, seeking, and knocking (Mat 7:7).
Get faith in God - it is freely given - and go into a realm of impossibility made possible, where the Spirit of God dramatically tears open the sky like it were a piece of clothing and gloriously comes down to attend to your cry.
Walking in prosperity is a journey however, and patience is key. You must pass that threshold where sanctification is embedded on the pavement you traverse. God is pure and brilliant white light. All forms of darkness and filth must wash away before Him. As we go before the throne of He who never fails, placed on the highest of highs and gaze upon Him, it is my boiling desire that I, you, we all receive illumination and afterwards walk down bringing the light of heaven to the world.
It is your duty to go forth and prosper. If you have God in you, you need nothing more!
