Pastor Josh ended the three week prosperity series
He first showed a few pictures from internet queries
Images depicted food, family, growth, and money
Some of them were serious while others were funny
Josh then turned to the Bible for a prosperity definition
Per John ten, giving abundant life was Jesus’ ambition
The first mention in Deuteronomy twenty eight eleven
Is relationships, vocation, and inheritance from heaven
The passage says God will make us the head not tail
Lending but no borrowing our lives should thus entail
Per verse thirteen, God ensures that we will be above
Romans eight says nothing separates us from His love
Paul says that tribulation, distress, peril, and persecution
Will always be conquered thanks to Christ’s contribution
We should remember that to serve Jesus came to earth
And by following His example, we will prove our worth
Why people want to prosper, there are reasons three
More and bigger things as well as fear and insecurity
The only good reason is so that we can others bless
As Second Corinthians chapter nine does profess
We should be generous with our gifts and our time
For the impact on others might be clear or sublime
The key is to “pray, meditate, proclaim, fellowship"
Josh wants us to internalise this as it will us equip
