"Well, brother, in the end I'm
sure you'll see these financial problems are actually a blessing in
disguise." Have you ever heard anybody say that to someone who's hurting
financially? Chances are, you have. It's a popular idea. The problem
is, it's a lie used by the devil to keep believers down.
As a
result, many believers today are suffering one financial defeat after
another. So let's go to the Word of God today and get the issue of
prosperity and poverty straight. Let's find out, once and for all, which
is the blessing, which the curse.
You can find the answer to that
question in Deuteronomy 28. What God describes in verses 1 through 14
is the blessing—prosperity. In verses 15 through 31, God describes
poverty—and He has called it a curse.
The curse is meant to destroy. Not to teach people a lesson. Not to make them more spiritual. But to destroy them.
Regardless of how intense the lack is, the nature of poverty remains the same. It is, and will always be, a curse.
Satan
has gone to great lengths to convince God's people that poverty is a
blessing in disguise. But poverty is something the devil contrived!
Don't
buy into his lies. Get your thinking in line with the Word of God. If
you're a born-again child of God, you no longer have to live under the
curse of poverty or any other curse for that matter. You've been
redeemed!
