ABUNDANCE IN THE MIDST OF SHORTAGE, PROSPERITY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CRISIS,
THE PROPHETIC SYSTEM OF THE KINGDOM VS. SLAVING SYSTEM OF THE WORLD:
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were men of worship and faith who remained faithful to the Lord in the midst of the difficulties that arose in their ways and for that reason, they were men extremely prosperous financially because they were always connected to the system prophetic of God. After Jacob, a son of his was born named Joseph, who was the one who interpreted the dream to Pharaoh, where the Lord revealed to him that seven years of abundance were coming and **then seven years of shortage;** God gave Joseph wisdom to save 20% of the income of the seven years of abundance so that when the shortage came, they would have abundance and so it happened. By Through the wisdom of God, Joseph turned Egypt into an economic empire. But they happened two things: - Joseph, his brothers and all that generation died (Exodus 1: 6). Not only died physically, but with them, the genetics of seeking God, of faith, of worshiping the Lord, the nation of Israel forgot the Lord, there was not a generation that made known to the Lord like Joseph, Jacob and his brothers, they were enveloped by the Egyptian system and This brought terrible consequences. - A new king arose over Egypt who did not know Joseph (Exodus 1: 8). Why not Did you know? Because the nation of Israel that was in Egypt did not make it known, it did not give know his works, or those of God, he forgot God and that's why a king who was going to bring oppression to their lives.
The Nation of Israel left God and for that reason:
- They were oppressed financially (Exodus 1:11) because they had multiplied and they had prospered exceedingly (Exodus 1: 7).
- They entered into a system of working with rudeness, they embittered their lives and turned them slaves (Exodus 1: 13-14). All this originated because they left the Lord, forgot the God of their fathers, and They went back to the Egyptian gods and what you worship is what you serve, that is, if they worshiped the Egyptian gods became slaves to those false gods, so much that they worked for build cities consecrated to those gods (Exodus 1:11). They were suffocated by the spirits of python and the sun god.
All the conflict that came through the plagues and the confrontation of Moses with the pharaoh was just for one thing: "Let my people go to worship me" (Exodus 5: 3).This system enslaves you with only one purpose: you do not want you to worship or serve the Lord. As consequently, it means that you do not have time, that you do not have finances, it enslaves you, makes you live bitter and depressed by the circumstances. The nation of Israel entered the financial system of the darkness when I leave the Lord, when they left the vision of their fathers of faith, God had to raise a prophet named Moses to reconnect the people with the Kingdom and system of
God; and so it was that the People and the families worshiped the Lord in their homes, they offered a lamb by family and the blood of the lamb kept them from the judgment that fell on Egypt and the house of Pharaoh (Exodus 12: 1-3; 8-13).
What happened when the people turned to the Lord and removed the leaven from their homes (which represents sin) ?:
- The Egyptians gave him jewelry of silver, gold and clothing. The Lord gave him grace and so they stripped the Egyptians of their riches.
- There was financial liberation and financial transfer (Proverb 2:26).
There fore, the Lord Jesus himself left us this teaching in Matthew 6:24 "No one can serve two gentlemen; because either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will esteem the one and despise the other. You can not serve God and riches. "The word" riches "is the Greek word" Mamon. " which is the god of greed, greed, spirit and mentality that drives you to worship, serve and love money
This is how a person who serves, loves and loves money is someone who despises and even he hates God, that's why there are people who say "I do not have time for God because I'm making money "and they make excuses for the service and worship of the Lord because unfortunately they moved away from the financial prophetic system of God.
The Lord Jesus begins to explain that system governed by the spirit of greed and greed and speaks of people who accumulate and accumulate wealth and finances, but do not accumulate wealth spiritual because they have not understood the kingdom of God (Matthew 6: 19-21). And when he talks about "To accumulate" means to have but not to give and not to help. Greed is something selfish that destroys it all.
The Lord Jesus continues to speak of greed or "the lust of the eyes" and says that if your eye is greedy, your whole life is in darkness because you are enslaved by a financial system of the darkness where you are going to steal and you are going to corrupt because of the greed that is inside you (Matthew 6:22) Then the Lord Jesus continues to explain those who are governed by the system of greed:
Those who let themselves be governed by the system of this world and live hard for life (worried, anxious, stressed, etc.), they live hard for what they will drink, so they have to dress and for food (Matthew 6:25). People who have a desire for things that will be needed in the future and not in the present, and They ask themselves: What will we eat, what will we drink or what will we wear? (Matthew 6:31) People God gives him today but they are bitter about whether or not they will have tomorrow.
Gentiles (idolaters, people who do not know God, people who do not worship God). They seek and strive for these things (Matthew 6:32).
People of little faith (Matthew 6:30). The Lord Jesus explains how His Kingdom operates: "Look at the birds of the sky, which do not sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your Father
He feeds them heavenly "(Matthew 6:26). They have a DNA of obedience to the system of
!nature that the Lord put and through that system, the birds do not lack anything.
"... Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they do not work or spin; but I tell you, not even Solomon with all his glory dressed himself as one of them "(Matthew 6: 28-29).
In the financial system of the Kingdom, everything moves by faith (Matthew 6:30). Remember that in the world of eagerness, you do not have time to worship and serve God (Luke 10: 38-42), but the people of Kingdom knows that the Father knows that we need these things and that is why He will supply them to us (Matthew 6:32) That is why the Lord says "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these they will be added to you "(Matthew 6:33).
The Lord tells you: choose my Kingdom, seek my Kingdom, invest in my Kingdom, worship me, serve me and you will see that I will bless your work, your business, your company and what Material is not the priority.
