    Given current events many people believe the end is near and the rapture may soon occur. While that might be true, we are also seeing the devil exert his influence and power like never before. Christians have been given tremendous authority over the devil and unclean spirits. We must start using it to see Jesus' enemies being made into His footstool, and we must begin praying for Jesus' return accordingly.

    Godly Financial Increase 101

    Play Episode Listen Later Oct 26, 2023 78:43


    The Bible is clear about money. God wants you financially blessed so that you can be abundantly supplied and so you can abound to every good work (2 Corinthians 9). In fact, all of God's people are empowered to create wealth (Deuteronomy 8:18), and God's blessing will bring riches without painful toil (Proverbs 10:22). But God doesn't drop money out of the sky (unfortunately!). We need to learn God's financial system and start increasing financially God's way. No matter where you find yourself financially, you can start operating in God's economic system and start increasing. In this message I go through the basics of God's financial system and I look very practically at how to start increasing financially with God's help. The accumulation of wealth, for you and for others, should never be our goal, but it should be a byproduct of our service for the Kingdom of God, as we sow and reap correctly for Him. I know this message will bless you.

    Seedtime and Harvest for Finances (and everything else)

    Play Episode Listen Later Sep 18, 2023 51:13


    Seedtime and Harvest is the most important financial principle presented in the Bible. In fact, seedtime and harvest should be our primary financial mindset. I know some people think that God wants us poor or that God doesn't care about our finances, but that's just not true. 2 Corinthians Chapters 8 and 9 clearly teach that God wants us so blessed that we can regularly be generous and “abound to every good work.” God wants to bless us so that we can bless others, and this brings Him glory and honor. Seedtime and harvest has been widely taught, but it can be complicated and it has been abused. In this podcast episode I take a hard look at some of the scriptures and show you why seedtime and harvest is the most important financial principle in the Bible, and that, in fact, it's one of the most important principles for every area of our lives.

    Should a Christian Tithe?

    If you have spent any time in church you've probably heard that you must give 10% of your money to God and that if you don't (a) you are robbing God and (b) you are cursed. The good news is that neither of those is true (sorry to pastors everywhere who have been teaching that). However, the positive reasons that we should tithe, how it honors God as the King of our lives, and how it invites His protection and provision into our lives, are far better reasons to tithe than fear of His curses and punishments. As my dad likes to say, “if we had any idea, we would run to tithe.” In this podcast episode I examine all of this and show you some tithing truths you have probably never heard before. Thank you for listening!

    Many of us listen to podcasts and take in a variety of content, and personal growth content is extremely influential right now, even for Christians. Personally, I read a lot of books, listen to a lot of podcasts and generally consume a lot of content.

However, it's important to have the right mental framework for these materials, especially for Christians trying to follow God's plan for their lives.

When you pray in tongues, your spirit is praying God's perfect will, you are speaking mysteries by God's Spirit, you are praying directly to God, you are edifying yourself, and you are building yourself up on your most holy faith.
