Learning to Prosper

I have some huge testimonies coming. Actually, I have some huge testimonies. It's been a banner month, and it's only been 8 days! I am increasing in so many ways, and it all seems to be happening so fast. I don't think, though, that it really is. We've spent months preparing for this, Yahweh and I, and we're ready. When His Harvest suddenly appears, we have to be ready. But He knows the timing and He will prepare us for the Harvest when the Harvest needs us.

I'm learning a lot through this prosperity. I haven't really had situations like this before. I mean, I've increased, but it's usually been by being delivered of something. While I was recently delivered of some fears I've had since childhood, that was only the first of the many blessings Yahweh has given me in the past week.

It's different, though, prospering this way. When you increase in blessing, you also increase in responsibility. We are faithful stewards over the things that Yahweh entrusts to us, and when He entrusts more to us, there is more over which to steward. It is easy to get caught up in worrying and striving to manage the new, bigger metron that Yahweh has given us. What I need to remember is simple. Don't do that. These blessings came to me when I most wanted them, but not because I went off searching and striving for them. Yahweh brought them to me almost without my asking. Though my heart yearned for these things, I never really sat down and asked Yahweh for them, probably because I didn't think He would think I needed them right now. What's most amazing is that when Yahweh places a desire in your heart, it's likely because he's already fulfilled it and you just don't know it yet. Therefore, why worry? What is there to strive for when we know it's already done and the blessings are already ours? Now all I need to do is be faithful and obedient over the steps necessary to complete the process, walking in His strength and grace to receive what He has had for me all along.

I suppose maybe that's not so different after all, having prosperity added to you and having a deliverance experience. Either way, it takes faith. Often, it takes patience. What's most important to remember is that Yahshua finished it all, Yahweh perfected what He authored before He even began it. All I have to do is receive it.

I'm looking forward to walking this process out with Yahweh. I'm hoping that this will be a main difference between what I'm experiencing now and what I've experienced in the past. In the past, because of the things that I was carrying and hadn't been delivered of, I was unable to really see or feel Yahweh walking with me, though He was certainly there. Now, I want to share this joy with Him. After all, not only is He the author of my prosperity, but He is also better than even that. Whatever He brings me, whatever He gives me, it will not distract me from Him and His greatness. And that's the second thing I've learned in prospering. Don't forget Yahweh. I don't ever want anything that will take me away from Him because He is my heart's greatest desire.

Remember, if He placed a desire in my heart, it's because He already fulfilled it. Oh the joy of Yahweh and His prosperity. Seek first the Kingdom... really, seek first the King... and His righteousness and all these things will be added to you. HalleluYah!
