God Gives You Power To Get Wealth

Deuteronomy 8:18
18“And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.


The idea that poverty is holy and wealth a curse never came from God. It came from the devil who wants you poor. He robs and steals from you (John 10:10), and even wants you to have a poverty mentality to keep you poor! God, however, wants you to prosper. And He does it by giving you the power to get wealth.

Having this power means that if you are a businessman, you will find yourself full of innovative ideas that will bring in huge profits for your company. Even as a salaried worker, you will find yourself promoted quickly because your organization values your contributions highly.

God wants to prosper you like how He prospered Abraham — in all things (Genesis 24:1) — so that He can fulfill the covenant He made with Abraham. God gave Abraham the power to get wealth, and he became rich in “flocks and herds, silver and gold, male and female servants, and camels and donkeys”. (Genesis 24:35) His son, Isaac, inherited his possessions and was also empowered by God to get wealth, so he became “very prosperous”. (Genesis 26:13) God also gave Abraham’s grandson, Jacob, the power to get wealth, and he grew “exceedingly prosperous”. (Genesis 30:43)

God’s promise that Abraham and his seed would possess the earth or be heirs of the world was not based on obedience to the law, but on the righteousness of faith. (Romans 4:13) And because you are in Christ and righteous by faith, you are Abraham’s seed and an heir of the world according to the promise. (Galatians 3:29) Are heirs of the world poor? Of course not!

My friend, God wants you to be prosperous, not just inwardly but outwardly too. (3 John 1:2) So today, even if you don’t have a cent in your pocket, remember the Lord your God. It is He who gives you the power to get wealth, so that He may establish His covenant with Abraham!

Never settle for the curse of sickness or poverty

A doctor’s report is not final. Jesus said to you, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.” (Revelation 1:8) Jesus has the first word as well as the final word in your situation. So called experts and medical reports do not have control over you life situation!

When Christ hung on the cross, He took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses. (Matthew 8:17). That is why your illness does not have the final say so in your life. Christ does, because He took your sickness upon His body and paid for your healing with His blood.

Never settle for the curse of illness or poverty when the price for your healing and prosperity has been paid by Christ. Sickness and poverty do not have the final say so in your life. Christ does because He redeemed you from every curse!

When man says that it is impossible, Jesus says that it is possible. The Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, has the final word in your situation and always will...!!!

Look at what the devil is doing and see it in reverse

This is what God once told a friend: “Tell My people that if they want to understand what I am doing, just look at what the devil is doing and see it in reverse. That is what I am doing, multiplied many times over.”

Think about what happened when Jesus was born. The killing of the infants was the devil’s reaction to the gift of salvation that God had sent. The devil saw that God’s provision had already been released on His people in a big way and fought it.

With every bad thing that the devil throws at you, you must remember that the devil is trying to pervert and reverse what God is already doing. That means something good is going to come out of it.

Believe that He releases new levels of prosperity for His people too. So don’t just see the evil. See the good that God is already doing!
