CALLED TO PROSPERITY
God is profound and glorious in every way and longs to share all that he is with us! He wants us to prosper in every area of our life, just as he is prosperous. Having money does not mean one has true prosperity. Money is the lowest part of prosperity because money is simply one of the byproducts of true prosperity. So what is true prosperity you may ask? Simply put, true prosperity is when a person lives inside of the faith and love of God!
I want you to know that God has designed a way for anyone to experience his prosperity. It is faith links us with God’s dominion, causing us to attain all God created us to have and be! Faith is powerful; without it, we cannot please God! (Heb 11:6) Faith is a way of thinking and perceiving the world you live in. If you can change the way you think, it will change the way you feel. If you can change the way you feel, it will change the way you act. If you can change the way you act, you will change your entire destiny. Someone once said, "Your attitude determines your altitude." 'sThis is so true.
Ps 25:12-13 Who, then, is the man that fears the LORD? He will instruct him in the way chosen for him. He will spend his days in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.
2 Corinthians 9:11 You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.

God’s manual for a great life (the Bible) clearly spells out God’s precious thoughts towards you! It is God’s will that you would live wholly consumed by his love for you! Resting in the love that God has for you is the key that unlocks the door for you to receive all that God is and has!
Jesus said, "The greatest command of all is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind and all your strength. (Mark 12:30)The only way we can truly love God is to receive his love for us fully. Apostle John told us, "We love because he first loved us.” (1Jn 4:19) In other words, the only way we will ever truly love is to receive love from the One through whom love comes. 1Jn 4:7says, "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God." Therefore, Loving God It is a natural byproduct of knowing that you are loved by God and that you are his greatest treasure!
You were made for increase because God is a God of increase and you are his child! May today be a defining moment for you! May your eyes be opened to a new way of thinking inside of the love of God!
