THE TOPIC BELOW MIGHT BE USEFUL!

HOW TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF TO STUDY

For people saying it's lie this it's a lie that just one thing is sure Jesus whom they all claim to be following was never this rich on earth with worldly materials so it's so shocking if a pastor owns all this cash while most followers can't even eat 3 square meal a day... Same pastors will be preaching that we shouldn't follow things of the world.

Honestly they can lie for africa.. Bishop wrote alots of books not only on prosperity... E.g healing balm, ruling your word, excellency of wisdom, walking in the newness of life, miracle meal, pillars of destiny, winning invisible battles, commanding the supernaturals, understanding the power of praise, satan get lost e.t.c.. I'm even tired of mentioning the books that didn't talk about prosperity... And moreover, prosperity is our heritage in Christ Jesus..
OP mind you, in Faith Terbernacle that i know, we run 5 services on weekly basis.. And lest i forget Bishop worth more than anything u can think of and so as the members as well.. We are not suffering.....
Check.....
Winners means wealth.... We are not suffering

You haven't answered my question

All I can say is Matthew 6:33 works like magic. According 2 Bishop Oyedepo 2 Bishop Abioye, "We where chasing after souls on byke, now we're flying". Never despise d days of little beginnings.
I remember d words of Pst David Oyedepo Jnr, during one of d Kingdom Advancement prayer sessions, "God rewards consistency" & dat is what we're seeing 2day.
May God give me grace 2 be consistent in serving Him. Amen!
