Is Your Faith Being Tested in Your Finances?
And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19 NLT)
My child, there are moments and times when your faith is tested in your finances. The enemy will play lying mind games with you when you are struggling. You must take authority over those thoughts immediately, or they will become a stronghold and be difficult to overcome. The enemy will try to put a spirit of fear in you and cause you to reason with your situation. Speak the Word of God only over your finances, declaring the Word:
It is written, the same God who takes care of me will supply all my needs according to His unlimited riches that have been given to me by Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)
It is written, God will generously provide all I need, then I will always have everything I need, and plenty left over to share with others. (2 Corinthians 9:9)
It is written, the blessing of the Lord makes you rich and adds no sorrow with it. (Proverbs 10:22)
It is written, blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. I am like a tree planted by the riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried about the long months of drought. Their leaves stay green and never stop producing fruit. (Jeremiah 17:7-8)
When the enemy shoots a fiery dart, at your mind fire your ammunition and defeat the enemy with these scriptures. You are armed and dangerous with the Word of God in you, and when you speak it out into the atmosphere, you will defeat the enemy. Jesus defeated the enemy in the wilderness by speaking the Word and you will too! When I need a miracle, I know I must sow seed for it, even if it is like the widow’s mite. (Mark 12: 41-44) It is not the size that matters; it’s your obedience to the Word.
You must give God something to work with. If you need a financial miracle, you need seed in the ground. How big of a miracle do you need? The size of your seed will always be equivalent to the size of your harvest. (2 Corinthians 9:6) If you want a small harvest, sow a small seed. If you need a great harvest sow a larger seed. Every time I’ve needed a miracle financially, God has stretched my faith by requiring me to sow a significant seed. Many times when He spoke to me at first, “I said, the Lord rebuke you, Satan!” Then after three days of prayer and in the Word, I know every time I must obey. It doesn’t make sense, but I trust God! Obedience is better than sacrifice! Your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. (1 Corinthians 2:5) Trust God! He will not disappoint you.
