God

is the origin of all blessings.

He

created mankind (Gen 1:26-27).

Though they were born on earth,

God wants to take them to heaven to gain eternal life.

This is God’s will (Jn 6:34-40),

which was fulfilled in heaven (Mk 6:10).

He gave sun and rain to creation

to give life to the ecosystem (Mt 5:45).

Yet God first wants us to prosper by His blessings.

This is by our relationship with God (Jn 4:23-24).

He wants us to prosper on earth.

He also wants the sick to be healed and healthy (Mt 11:2-6).

But

since the aim is to enter eternal life, it is the spirit which prospers (Jn 17:3).

To make the spirit prosper, God gave His grace (Jn 1:17).

Knowing and believing in God’s name (Jn 20:30-31),

drinking God’s blood and gaining life (Jn 6:53-55),

and receiving God’s command fulfills eternal life.

He fulfilled this work on earth by the Holy Spirit (Mt 12:28).

○ Obey God and be wealthy.

Come before God with your wealth.

God wants all things to go well with us.

○ Be healed of your sickness.

The Lord Jesus was not flogged without reason.

By His wounds, we are healed.

○ Yet

our spirits must prosper.

Jesus suffered for our spirits.

※ He made us born again

so our spirits can prosper by the Holy Spirit.

We must become people of the Holy Spirit (Jn 3:4-8).
