PUT YOUR CONFIDENCE IN THE WORD
By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith (Hebrews 11:7).
The Bible tells us how the Lord told Noah to build an ark because He was about to destroy the earth with a great flood. All the people and animals on earth drowned and whole cities were submerged in the flood.
Yet, the very flood of judgment that came to destroy the ungodly bore Noah’s ark up; it bore up the righteous! As the floods of inflation, disaster and violence beat on the world in these latter days, refuse to fret or fear.
What you need to live victoriously is the deposit of God’s Word in your spirit. You’ve got to know and have the Word in you. With the Word in you, your success is assured, no matter what happens around you. Colossians 3:16 says, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom…” That’s it! Inundate your spirit with the Word and you’ll stay afloat like the ark of Noah, and the circumstances responsible for sinking businesses, careers and finances will be for your promotion.
The floods of economic and natural disasters in the world aren’t against you. God has ordained your promotion and prosperity. He already planned that you’ll be a success irrespective of what’s going on around you. Remember Isaac: he reaped a hundredfold harvest even when there was famine (Genesis 26:12).
You’re ordained to prosper in a time of inflation. This is your life as a Christian. Let your confidence rest only in how much of the Word of Christ you have in you and live by, not in how much money you have in your bank account. As you allow the Word to dominate you, it’ll give you the mentality of a victor such that no matter what happens, you’ll stay above only.
CONFESSION: The entrance of God’s Word floods my heart with light and brings brilliance and beauty into my life. I do not fret over the hardship, inflation and evil in today‘s world, for they’re not set against me! I’ve ascended above the economics of this world! I‘m in my place of inheritance in Christ Jesus, where I prosper continually. Hallelujah!
