Summary:

The most powerful spiritual invasion the devil will ever see is a Church that's aware of the right they have to prosper. Poverty is not God's
creation. It's part of the curse and designed to destroy. Christians
are blessed and empowered to prosper in every area of life, and must
renew their mind with the Word of God, and what it says about
prosperity.

1. Christians will never be free to prosper without finding out what the Word says about prosperity.
   1. Without referring to the Word, Christians will continue to think there's something wrong with prosperity.
   2. Satan has frightened some people into thinking there's something evil about money.
      1. Because people in the world have gotten money through evil means, some people think it's evil.
      2. Money does not belong to Satan; the Earth and the fullness thereof belongs to the Lord.
   3. As Believers we must learn how to access the resources God provides.
      1. Jesus demonstrated how to access the resources of Heaven when He supernaturally paid His taxes.
         
         
2. Poverty is part of the curse.
   1. To be cursed means you have supernatural power working against you (Deuteronomy 28:15-18, 20, 31).
   2. God didn't create poverty.
      1. Poverty is a result of the fall of man.
      2. Poverty is Satan's creation (1 Peter 5:8).
         1. Poverty ruins and destroys lives (Proverbs 10:15).
         2. Poverty robs and leaves you helpless and hopeless (Proverbs 6:9-11). iii. Satan is a thief; he's the one who robs.
   3. Satan has promoted poverty by spreading lies.
      1. If Satan can convince Believers to endorse poverty as a gift from God, he can rob you, and you'll believe poverty is God's will.
         1. God will never endorse something that's designed to destroy.
   4. Saying Jesus was poor is akin to saying He was cursed.
      
      
3. When you become born again, you are redeemed from Satan's curse of poverty (Galatians 3:13, 14, 16, 29).
   1. You are Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promises God made Abraham.
      1. You're no longer under the curse; you're under the blessing.
   2. The blessing is supernatural power working for you.
      1. The blessing, or the curse, affects every area of your life.
   3. Reject everything that's under the curse.
      1. Claim your prosperity.
         1. Everything in your life starts with an agreement to claim it.
            
            
   
   
   
4. God promised you spiritual and natural prosperity (Genesis 13:2).
   1. God wants you to have a surplus in every area of your life (Deuteronomy 28:1-14).
   2. The key to prosperity is obedience to ways of God.
      1. Obedience is the key to the blessing.
      2. Disobedience blocks the blessing.
         1. Strife, unforgiveness, and disobedience will hinder the supernatural power of God from working for you.
   3. Obedience will cause the blessing to overtake you.
      1. The curse is broken by obeying God's Word.
   4. Spiritual principles alone will not cause prosperity; you must live according to God's Word or spiritual principles will not work.
   5. There are two types of prosperity:
      1. One type from Satan and one type from the Word of God.
         1. There is prosperity that comes from the wicked; however, wicked means are not the only means to prosperity.
   6. God gives you the power to get wealth so He can establish His covenant (Deuteronomy 8:18).
