The Word of God declares that we have access to a life full of abundance. Remember the Proverbs 31 woman? As we take time to stop comparing our shortcomings and gain a kingdom perspective, we will learn that she was a woman with multiple streams of income. Each of her natural gifts and responsibilities led her to opportunities.
John 10:10 NKJV
[10] The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
Do you see this?! Like really see it?
Who comes to steal from us? To kill and destroy us ?
Satan.
Yet, Jesus declares that His mission was to come to give us life. A new life full of abundance. The term “life” translates to “Zoe” in Greek, and is described in the Strong's concordance as the existence that is supreme, abundant, superior, extraordinary, surpassing, and uncommon. Furthermore a life that is pre-eminent, superior, advantage, more remarkable, more excellent.

Many of us have to be taught that inadequacy equals humility. That is not what this says. Besides a humble person just is , they don't go around attempting to get people to validate their humility. Satan is the one who has come to attempt to deplete us of our kingdom inheritance.
Just as with any other inheritance, there are terms and conditions that need to be met to ensure that it is not squandered. 3 John 1:2 recites the prayer John prays for the believers. John, the beloved disciple of Jesus, prays that believers will be prosperous as their soul prospers. The word “prosper” is used to manifest the abundance of God's inheritance in our lives. The only way this can happen is as our soul prospers. Soul prosperity comes through the renewing of the mind, and the healing and transformation of the soul. Transformation takes place as we replace implied thoughts and teachings of our culture, our environment, our families, our traditions with that of God's Word and standard.
We have to refocus our attention from incompetence to abundance; poverty to prosperity. God's way to achieving prosperity, as He does everything else, is from the inside out. By willingly renewing our minds with His Word, and as we do this, the results are spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical abundance.
Those of you who have read this far, I have a resource to start you on your journey. Just as we must study the word of God to get a better understanding so that we are able to apply it, we must study to understand finances. I believe that as we study with a kingdom perspective and application we will see a Kingdom manifestation.
This site offers many books, webinars and courses to help you become financially intelligent while introducing you to opportunities of entrepreneurship. I took one class and was amazed at the wealth of knowledge and wisdom that was shared. My friend, Dr. Lynn Richards knows what it's like to go from "check to Monday" to abundance.
