The Father wants you to be prosperous and successful. While the world has its ideas about prosperity and success, they are only counterfeits. God’s prosperity and success cover your spirit, soul, body, family, work, and finances; in other words, every part of your being and every part of your life.
God has given you His Word so you are strong spiritually. There are promises in the Word that cover everything that you will ever experience. The Word fills any feelings of emptiness and removes all fear. He has also given you the Holy Spirit from which the forces of life flow from your heart.
As you renew your mind to the Word, vile imaginations and agitating illusions can no longer torment you. You have direct access to the source of all knowledge. You have the mind of Christ and know all things. (1 Cor. 2:16; 1 John 2:20.)
The Word also provides healing and strength for your body. (1 Peter 2:24; Isa. 40:31.) All of your needs are met in the Word. (Phil. 4:19.)
As you make the Word your daily bread by meditating on it, talking about it, and acting on it, you will experience the same success and abundance that was promised to Joshua.
Prosperity and success are the by-products of living in God. They are the result of the Word being first place in your life. They are the rewards for seeking after God. When Jesus is the object of your love and obedience, prosperity and success are natural by-products.
