Mark 11:24
Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

Giving is not man's idea. It is God who commanded us to give. We give because His word says so. Our givings are based on His word. When we give, we are to expect our harvest. This is the sixth law in the eight laws of abundance - Expect your harvest.

Many of us have been told to give but not expect anything back. That sounds cute but it's not in the word. If you don't expect your harvest from God, then probably you will never reap it. We do what God tells us to do and we expect God to do what He said He would do. Luke 6.38 says, "Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you." When you give according to this verse, you are to expect that it shall be given to you good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over it shall come into your bosom. Now we are not looking at or expecting from people. We didn't give based on what people said, we gave based on what the word of God said. Therefore our expectations is from God alone. Hallelujah. We look to our Lord and Saviour, Jesus alone. When you tithe or sow seeds, take your tithe and seed scriptures and start expecting with praise and thanskgiving. Never stop expecting because God's word is God's integrity.

Friend, expectation is a vital key in reaping your harvest. Many have missed their harvest because they never had any expectations. The reason God tells us to give is so He can invade our finances and bless us beyond our capacity to comprehend it. Expect! Expect! Expect!

"I believe I receive my harvest, I believe I receive my hundred fold, I believe I receive open heavens upon my life and my finances in the name of Jesus. Thank you Father. Glory to God."

Malachi 3:13‭-‬14
“Your words have been harsh against Me,” Says the Lord , “Yet you say, ‘What have we spoken against You?’ You have said, ‘It is useless to serve God; What profit is  it that we have kept His ordinance, And that we have walked as mourners Before the Lord of hosts?

The fifth law in the eight laws of abundance is having a prosperous mouth. Proverbs 18:20 says, A man’s stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth; From the produce of his lips he shall be filled. Increase is a result of your mouth. Increase begins with mouth. Your words are extremely powerful!

In these verses, God is talking about people who tithe and sow seeds but their words are not in line with the word of God. Speaking negatively and against the word of God hinders your prosperity and keeps you in scarcity all your life. Rise up! Change your words! Move up! It's very important for us to do what God wants us to do and at the same time to say what God says. Your words are your limit. Your words are your ceiling. You will never go where your words don't go. You will only go where your words go. Your words are the steering and the rudder of your life. Speak increase, speak prosperity, speak life and speak glory. Refuse to talk poverty, scarcity, lack and insufficiency. Speak about the sufficiency of God in Christ because the Lord supplies all of your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Proverbs 18. 21 says, Life and death is in the power of the tongue, those who love it will eat it's fruit. Choose to speak in line with the word of God. Refuse to speak what you see or what your five senses tell you. Speak the word at all times and in all areas. Find out scriptures that talk about prosperity, increase and sufficiency and keep confessing them over your life. Keep speaking, don't stop talking!

Jesus said, you will have what you say. Your words have creative ability. Speak wisely. Speak healthy. Speak wealthy. Speak life. Your words carry immense power. Unleash the power and let your words carry you into the abundance that God has for you. Your abundance is on it's way! Go on with Jesus!

"My words are not harsh against God. My words are in line with the word of God. I live in abundance. I live in overflow. I live in the more than enough zone. The Lord is my Shepherd, my Vine, therefore I never lack. My God has made all grace abound towards me that I always having all sufficiency in all things abound in every good work. Hallelujah."

II Corinthians 9:6
But this I  say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

Sowing seeds is the fourth principle in the laws of abundance. Genesis 8.22 says “While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer and day and night shall not cease.”

The kingdom of God operates by sowing and reaping while the world system operates by buying and selling. Through the kingdom system, five loaves and two fishes can feed more than five thousand people. Let's live by the kingdom system. Whatever you give over and above your tithe is your seed. Whenever you have a need, sow a seed. Sowing seeds is the kingdom way of meeting all your needs. This world is in a financial mess experiencing economic turmoil like never before and the only way you can escape the wicked, unjust and selfish schemes of men is by operating in the laws of the heavenly kingdom. Be a consistent sower. Find a good and fertile ground, seek the Lord concerning anointed ministries that are genuinely working for the expansion of the kingdom and get involved with them and start sowing and investing your seeds faithfully into their vision and work. Jesus said in Mark 10. 29, 30 Whoever sows in the kingdom for His sake and the gospels will receive a hundred fold in this age. Glory to God! As you sow in faith, the Lord will multiply your seeds sown and He will increase the fruits of your righteousness. II Corinthians 9:10 says, ‘Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness.’

Friend, always direct your seed towards a specific harvest. Your harvest can be a house, job, spouse, promotion or for your ministry or business or education or a hundred fold return, whatever it may be, if you don't give up you will reap your harvest. Find and stand on scriptures that promise your harvest and take faith step towards the harvest by consistently sowing seeds. Your harvest in on its way! Keep sowing, Keep reaping!

"I am a sower. As I sow seeds in the work of the Lord, I believe the Lord multiplies my seeds and increases the fruits of my righteousness. I receive my hundred fold harvest. Always overflow. Always abundance
Always more than enough."

Malachi 3:10
Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the Lord of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there  will not be  room enough to  receive  it.

Giving of all tithes is the third law in the eight laws of abundance. You may be living in the poorest place on earth but if you apply these laws of abundance, you will experience financial abundance like never before. These heavenly laws will work in any place and will turn any desert into the garden of Eden.

Tithe is 10% of your income and it belongs to God. Irrespective of how much your income is, when you tithe, you are positioning yourself for increase. When you tithe, you acknowledge God as your Source and Sustainer. Tithe is acknowledgement. When you refuse to tithe, you are declaring independence from  God and independence is dangerous for a human being. We can see this in the life of Adam when He declared independence from God - He lost everything. Man was never designed to live independently of God. Tithe is a declaration of your total dependence on God. Leviticus 27.30 says, 'And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord ’s. It is holy to the Lord.'

Friend, in the Old Testament, Abraham gave His tithe to Melchizedek. In the New Testament, we, as the seed of Abraham give our tithes to our Melchizedek, Jesus Christ. Tithe is a response to the wonderful blessings of God and opens the doors for greater blessings. Do not rob God and let Him have access to your finances through your tithe. Have dominion in your finances. Your abundance is on its way!

"I don't rob God. I am a cheerful tither. When I tithe, I acknowledge God as my Source and Sustainer. I live under an open heaven with an abundant supply of blessings. Overflow always. Always abundance. Always more than enough."

Matthew 6.33
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

The second law in the laws of abundance is having a kingdom mindset. There is no such thing as a law that doesn't work. Laws always work. If you operate by the eight laws of abundance, no one can stop you from living a life of abundance. Refuse to stay poor. Refuse to stay in scarcity, lack and financial struggle. Refuse to look at others. Look to Jesus!  Love people but only look to Jesus!

Kingdom mindset - Jesus said in Matthew 6.33, 'Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness...' Notice the word first. That means before anyone else or anything else, put the kingdom first. Give the kingdom of God top priority in your life. It simply means putting God's house before your house. Give priority to His family, His house and His kingdom. When you put God's house first,  He will take care of your house. When you put His business first, He will take care of your business. Each one of us used to put ourselves first before anyone or anything else - thats how the world lives. This is why we could never enjoy abundance in our finances. Let's renew our minds and start giving more importance to God and His kingdom. In the book of Haggai, God gives His people the reason why they were not enjoying the goodness of God in their finances - because they neglected God's house and gave more importance to their own houses. Put God's house first! No matter where you are, no matter what you are doing, put God and the things of God first, you will start experiencing abundance like never before.

Friend, put God first in your treasure. In your finances, put God first. In your time, put God first. In your energy, put God first. Matthew 6.33 says, Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added to you. Don't try to earn all things - its a tough life. Don't struggle for these things instead let all things be added to you. Put God first and let abundance overtake you. Go on with Jesus!

"I am a citizen of the kingdom and my priority is the kingdom of God and His righteousness. All things are being added to me. I never lack. I am never in want. I never struggle. Always overflow. Always abundance. Always more than enough. Hallelujah."

III John 1:2
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

Being prosperity minded is the number one law in the laws of abundance. Prosperity in all areas of your life is directly proportional to the prosperity of your mind. This verse says you prosper as your soul prospers.

Financial abundance is God's will for each and every child of His. Psalms 35.27 says, The Lord delights in the prosperity of His servants. John 15.7 says, My Father is glorified when you bear much fruit. II Corinthians  8.9 says, For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ that though He was rich, yet for our sakes He became poor so that we through His poverty might become rich. How do you become prosperity minded? By meditating on the word of God concerning prosperity. Through these verses develop an image of prosperity and build a prosperity stronghold in your mind. It's difficult to receive prosperity and enjoy it if you are not prosperity minded. Prosperity in all areas at all times in not man's idea. It is God's will for all of His children. Some fight it, some disagree with it and some even rebuke it. But those who receive it will enjoy it. Eradicate poverty, lack and scarcity from your thinking and let the word frame your thinking, let the word change the way you think and see things. You are a child of the Most High God and no child of God should ever be poor and needy. Never.

Friend, this world needs the church to be prosperous because only the body of Christ can replenish the world. God wants you to live and walk in abundance. Become prosperity minded. Become increase minded so you can receive the blessings of God and become a distributor of Gods wealth to this dying world. Expand the kingdom! Enjoy your life! Help the poor! Jesus is coming back!

"I live in supernatural prosperity every day of my life. I have a prosperous soul and I am prospering in everything I do. No lack. No scarcity. No shortage. Always overflow. Always abundance. Always more than enough. Hallelujah”

This is life!

This is life!

Ecclesiastes 12:13
Having heard everything, I have reached this conclusion: Fear God and keep his commandments, because this is the whole duty of man.

What is life? How would you define and describe it? Some would say family. Some would say having lots of money. Others would say having peace. What would you say?

King Solomon, the wisest and the richest king that ever lived said, 'Having heard everything, I have reached this conclusion: Fear God and keep his commandments, because this is the whole duty of man.' This is life. It's the foundation of life. Nothing else matters! What a powerful and wonderful verse! To fear God simply means to respect the Lord and to give Him honour. It doesn't mean to be afraid of Him like you would be scared and afraid of a snake, it's means to reverence Him, to hold Him in high esteem. To fear the Lord means to love what He loves and to hate what He hates. To fear the Lord means to obey Him, to do whatever He says. Obedience is a result of the fear of the Lord. When it's all said and done, you stand before your Creator and you give Him an account of your life to Him. Every human will stand before the judgement seat of God.

Friend, the only thing that matters in life is to fear God and to keep His commandments. Let this become the motto of our lives. Life becomes beautiful when we know what life actually is. Life is a struggle when the purpose and objective of life is not known. When life is not understood, we run after worthless things only to realise that all of it was just a waste. Be wise and take the advice of King Solomon : Fear God and keep His commands for this is your life. Nothing else matters!
