Chapter 2: Walking in the financial favor of God.
In continuing with Dr. Lery Thompson; he quotes "Have your ever thought you could get ahead financially if you could just get a rais or if the stock market woul stay steady, or get enough overtime in at your job"? Well yes, we could benefit to a degree. The things in this world is not predictable and designed to only make a few rich. It leaves the majority of the people hanging, and wishing if only they could do this or that. The bible clearly warns against trusting or putting your trust and hope in uncertain riches (1 Timothy 6:17). Our finances can be here today and gone tommorrow. The financial favor of God can help with all of those things. We have to get in the position for no more empty hands. We must first gain knowledge about God's will and ways concerning finances. The example is about the financial favor in the covenant God established for us in Christ after the order of Abraham.
Before you can recieve financial favor from God, you have to first establish Him as your source. "But my God shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus"(Phil. 4:19)
Chapter 3: How to hold on to your dream--the difference between struggling and suffering.
Most of us are familar with struggling and not how to escape and walking free of it. The Lord has already made a way. Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life"(John 14:6). People need teaching and revelation and hope in their future from the Word of God. Freedom comes through faith and patience. This context is about how to work and cooperate with God's laws and principles of increase and freedom. We were made to dream. We should not let anyone or thing take that away from us. "God is able and willing to turn things around and bring you into your financial dream; so don't ever doubt or be afraid to speak it". The purpose for prosperity is the fulfillment of His purposes in the earth. God gives seed to the sower and He is the multiplier of the seed to provide bread for the one who has sown and more--all to God's glory.
