"Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable,
whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of
good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of
praise, let your mind dwell on these things."
- Philippians 4:8
God wants whatever you want. God's will is your will.
Throught
the Bible it is shown that God gave you the power to create with your
words and your thoughts. In doing so, God gave you the ability to
decide whether you want to be rich or poor. If you decide that you want
to be rich, you will be rich. If you decide that you want to be poor,
you will be poor.
If you focus your words and your thoughts on
prosperity, you will prosper. Don't focus on the lack of prosperity in
your life. Instead, look within at the prosperity that already exists
within your heart. Focus on the love you find there.
God wants
what is best for you. Yes, He would prefer to see you prosper in all
areas of your life, but if you decide that you want to be poor, He will
abide by your decision. God loves you. He might try to guide you
towards the path of prosperity with a nudge here, a thought there, but
as a loving Father He will allow you to create your own life. He will
not abandon you.
So, what do you want - to be rich or poor?
