Can we preach a message that encourages prosperity with divine purpose? I think we have to, we simply must find that space between ditches right now. I am believing that this year is the year when all the tours of hell become worth it. Good word, David.

God has been speaking to me about kingdom finances. Although I have a finance background, I have always backed away from preaching kingdom prosperity because of the blatant manipulation we see every day on Christian broadcasting. But God spoke a word in my spirit & said," To preach the fullness of the kingdom , you must preach a balance word concerning finances." We have been given dominion and authority to RULE and REIGN ON THIS EARTH! How can we do that broke?? The only thing most churches are taking over is the McDonalds on Sunday night! You are right, there is a shift happening to where the kingdom people will begain to invade the marketplace and as we do, God will take our seed and Multiply it to advance His kingdom throughout this earth. He said that He would CAUSE men to give unto you... that is not just someone slipping you $20 at church on Sunday but he can also cause customers to spend money at Christian owned businesses or He wll CAUSE that investment property to sell in a time when the market is flooded with foreclosures. There will be a KINGDOM transfer of wealth.... Eccl 2:26 6 For God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy to a man who is good in His sight; <strong>but to the sinner He gives the work of gathering and collecting, that he may give to him who is good before God</strong>NKJV A good example is a church in Florida that bought the local MALL and has leased out every space available. They have been able to employ people from their church to run the office. The mortagage is around $85,000 a month and the rental income is around $260,000. That is $175,000 that could be used for the KIngdom of God! People might say the church has no business in the marketplace but I agree with you David. It is time for us to take over! I Love you Man!

We tell those who are called to preach that they have been called by God to share their revelation. We tell those who are called to supernatural prosperity to give 10% to the church. It makes no sense. I get revelation that is just for me. But I get at least an equal amount that I am supposed to give and I get fulfillment in operating in my purpose. Preachers can't be scared to tell people that some are called to make a boatload of money and part of that calling is to give away significant portions of it. By casting out blanket statements that we are only required to give the tithe regardless (plus a few percent for offerings) sears the conscience of those whom God is calling to give much more. Keep preachin brother! Amen!
