"Prosperity Scriptures"

Prosperity Scriptures

Have you ever wondered why God gave His people the prosperity scriptures? I once attended a church that faithfully taught God's plan of Salvation, and how to live a Holy life. It was a wonderful church, but very little was taught about God's way to prosperity. As a result some members believed it might be worldly, or perhaps even a sin to prosper.

Years later, after doing an in depth study of the prosperity scriptures, I began to understand that prosperity is a part of God's plan, and that it is not only about finances, but for every area of our life.

"Prayer of Jabez"
"Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request." (1 Chron 4:10)

Jabez boldly asked God to bless and make him prosperous in a number of areas of his life, and we are told that "God granted his request."

The Apostle John, In a letter addressed to Gaius, prayed for his dear friend to "prosper in every way." If it had been wrong to prosper I do not believe John would have prayed the following prayer.

"Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and [that your body] may keep well, even as [I know] your soul keeps well and prospers." (3 John 1:2, AMP)

The following Prosperity Scriptures are from both the Old and the New Testament. You will find that although God did make many people very wealthy, His plan of prosperity is for every area of life.

May the Lord bless and enlarge your territory,
