Holiness And The Blessings That Comes With It

KINGDOM POWER INTERNATIO­NAL CHRISTIAN PRAYING CENTRE ( KPICPC)

Text: Matthew 6: 33; Isaiah 45: 3; 49: 23

HOLINESS is a virtue, but it does not stand- alone. It comes with tremendous blessings from the Lord. Having sought and gained righteousn­ess through the grace of God, it behooves us as believers to seek for other ingredient­s that can make holiness worthwhile. One of the blessings of holiness is wealth from the Lord.

Man lost God through disobedien­ce. He is like a prodigal son who went astray and spent all he had in a riotous living. But when he realised himself, he went back to God in full repentance. This automatica­lly made him regain his original nature of righteousn­ess. This invariably gives him access to God and all the blessings of the kingdom. Nothing else can stand on his way to victory in life anymore. Man now has all it takes to soar high and achieve all he desires in life. It is holiness that gives us these privileges.

The regained original nature of man, which is holiness, attracts wealth to believers. However, ignorant believers do not know this fact. This is the reason some Christians remain in abject poverty. It is not the will of God that his children should be in poverty. This is contrary to the plan of God for man right from the foundation of the earth. It has been the will of God that his children prosper. But today, the reverse is the case as some Christians think it is poverty that will take them to heaven. But this is the deceit of the devil! There is no virtue in poverty because it will be very hard for a poor man to enter heaven.

This is a unique season in Kingdom Power. It is a season of wealth and prosperity for, as many that believe in God for it.

Jesus died for all these. He achieved the feat on the Cross of Calvary many years ago. His blood is enough to give us all we need in life. There is no blood that is as efficaciou­s as the blood of Jesus Christ. Every other blood is fake and cannot secure the needed wealth and peace of mind for man. The garment of holiness the Lord gave to us is enough to pull the wealth of the kingdom.

This is the season to showcase the glory of God through the demonstrat­ions of wealth in our lives. The Lord is set to bless us with heavenly wealth that will shock the entire world. However, the wealth of heaven requires faith and activation of it. This is the area where believers fail woefully unlike the world that does not have God. The people of the world can go to the extent of sacrificin­g their children for wealth, but God does not demand such bloody sacrifice because Jesus has sacrificed his life for it. All that believers need is to activate his/ her faith to claim God’s blessings of wealth and riches.

Activate your faith and make it work for you. • For further reading: Luke 15: 11- 24; Mat. 6: 33; 2 Pt. 3: 1; Eccl. 3: 1; Isaiah 28: 15; Isaiah 49: 23.
