Habakkuk 3:17-18
17 Though the fig tree does not bud
and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
and no cattle in the stalls,
18 yet I will rejoice in the LORD,
I will be joyful in God my Savior.

Psalm 146
3 Do not put your trust in princes,
Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help.
4 His spirit departs, he returns to his earth;
In that very day his plans perish.
5 Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help,
Whose hope is in the LORD his God,
10 He does not delight in the strength of the horse;
He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 The LORD takes pleasure in those who fear Him,
In those who hope in His mercy.

Psalm 126:5-6
Those who sow in tears
Shall reap in joy.
He who continually goes forth weeping,
Bearing seed for sowing,
Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing,
Bringing his sheaves with him.

Psalm 139:11-12
If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall[a] on me,”
Even the night shall be light about me;
Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You,
But the night shines as the day;
The darkness and the light are both alike to You.
If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall[a] on me,”
Even the night shall be light about me;
Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You,
But the night shines as the day;
The darkness and the light are both alike to You.
Psalm 138:7
Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;
You will stretch out Your hand
Against the wrath of my enemies,
And Your right hand will save me.
Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;
You will stretch out Your hand
Against the wrath of my enemies,
And Your right hand will save me.
We've been surrounded and battered by troubles, but we're not demoralized; we're not sure what to do, but we know that God knows what to do; we've been spiritually terrorized, but God hasn't left our side; we've been thrown down, but we haven't broken.
2 corinth 4:8 The Message Translation
2 corinth 4:8 The Message Translation
and provide for those who grieve in Zion--to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.

Psalm 91:14 (Amplified version)
Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness--trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never].
Psalm 91:15
He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.
Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness--trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never].
Psalm 91:15
He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.
In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.
-1 Peter 1:6-7
-1 Peter 1:6-7
the anointing to prosper is love - the love for God
God is not just your source, He's your only Source
God has given us dominion and seed: Gen 1
The Word of God is our incorruptible seed, that is seed that will never fail. The Word of God is seed that will never fail; it will work all the time. it will never fail. Isaiah 40:6 But seed in the Bible, on the coffee table will not work, it will not produce anything. The Word of God is incorruptible seed.
Prov 4:20-23: your heart is the ground that your harvest comes out from for "out of your heart comes the issues of life". The Word of God must be planted on the inside of your heart for the harvest to come out of your life. WOrds planted inside your heart determine what comes out of your heart. When you say it, see it, hear it, it will get into your heart but you can't do it one time, two times, you have to keep doing it. and then it will come out of your life.
If you lack consistency, you lack results. hear the word, Meditate, speak the Word and only the word. that gets on the inside of your heart and comes out of your life. words are seeds whether or not they are negative or positive. words are seeds, you have to speak the word. Your money seed has to be backed up by the word of God on the inside of your heart. The word has to be inside of you on a consistent basis and what has been planted on the inside of your heart comes out of your life. We get healing by the word inside our heart, our salvation by the word on the inside of your heart. You get the financial wealth by planting the financial seed and the spiritual seed on the inside of you. Guard your heart - make sure you don't have the wrong seed planted on the inside of your heart - for out of it comes the issues of life.
You have to plant the seed: it might look dead, but it is germinating under the ground, and then you have to water it, get rid of weeds etc before you get your harvest. you cannot let results be your motivation, you have to let the love for God be your motivation. Your prosperity should be about your love for the Kingdom of God. it should be about you loving God so much that you want to be able to help His kingdom and do what needs to be done.
Prov 3:9-10: Honor God with your possessions that means His word will carry weight in your life, in ur decisions, in ur actions, in the words you speak. That means you have to honour God with your possessions; honour is tied to your success and dishonour is tied to lack of success. when you stop giving and tithing you stop honouring God and then lack comes in. The reason why we give is not to get but because we honour God, because we love God and God said to give and tithe.

Saying, "When will You comfort me?"

consistency is the key to breakthrough -
The enemy tries to contain us by:
1. Ignorance: Hosea 4:6-7: we get cut off from God's blessing due to ignorance. we can't do better until we know better.
2. Deception: the truth will set us free but we have to know the whole truth. We must be students of the Word of God so we are not deceived. Gal 6:7 - we reap whatever we harvest. - this is a spiritual principle. Don't let your circumstances deceive you. it is all inclusive: whatever you sow is what you will reap. just wait for your harvest. you might not have reaped it yet, but that doesn't change the principle
3. Distraction: an intrusion of the mind to try to cause confusion. you've gotta know the Word so when the deceiver comes to distract you from the main issues of your life, you'll recognize it. Heb 12:2-3. Don't be weary and faint in your mind. You have to be careful that the enemy doesn't use noble things to get distracted from what you've been called to do. You don't want to be so caught up serving God that we are not loving God.
The objective of being blessed is to be a blessing. we are blessed so that we can bless other people - Gen 12:1-3
we have a God given power, and a God given ability to get wealth, Deut 8:18. The enemy wants to contain us in the area of wealth because if we ever learn how to work it, the enemy will be in trouble.
Power is the ability to get results, to get the job done.

For there is hope for a tree,
If it is cut down, that it will sprout again
And that its tender shoots will not cease.
Though its root may grow old in the earth
And its stump may die in the ground,
Yet at the scent of water it will bud
And bring forth branches like a plant
- Job 14:7-9
