Prosper and Be in Health

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

3 John 1:2, NKJV.

So many people are confused about what the Bible means by prosperity. Prosperity isn’t just about money. It’s about having health and peace in your mind. It’s being able to sleep at night and having good relationships. There are many things that money cannot buy that represent prosperity, but having monetary provision is also a part of prosperity. You’ll never find one place in the Scripture where we are supposed to drag around not having enough, not able to afford what we want, and living off the leftovers of others. No, we were created to be the head and not the tail! Jesus came that we might live an abundant life!

Remember, as followers of Jesus, we represent Almighty God here on this earth. We should be examples of His goodness. We should be so blessed, so prosperous, so generous, so full of joy that other people want what we have. You don’t prove God is good when you live a defeated life. When you yield yourself to Him and He pulls you out of the pit, that’s when He gets the glory. Believe that God wants you to prosper and be in health as you yield every area of your life to Him.

PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Father, You are so good. Thank You for choosing me and for teaching me Your ways. Today, I receive Your word and Your desire that I prosper in every area of my life. I give You the glory; I give You the praise in Jesus’ name. Amen.
