Shalom friends!
Trust you're doing good in this journey of life and believe to reign with Jesus Christ in eternity?

The third book of John and the second verse states God wishes our prosperity, live healthy, even as our souls are prospering likewise.

What I want to present to the table; is making good money not an evidence of prosperity from God?

Please let's share our thoughts or make comments on this topical issue.

I am glad reading your opinion @antichristian.

But, can you cross-check your biblical reference if it connects with this topic?

Brethren, the question is open to the house: if making good money is not God's evidence for our prosperity?

OK! Making good money is God's evidence for our prosperity as God created prosperity!

Making good money too is not God's evidence for our prosperity as God created calamities!

Nope, it’s not. Jesus didn’t make good morning yet he prospered in all ramifications

You do know that that God of Scripture does not force yourself on you in anyway? Jesus Christ is optional - Matthew 11 vs 28 - 30 so you don't really need him if what you instead want is the wealth of this world. undecided

2. Making what you refer to as good money isn't evidence of prosperity from God. For instance, Jesus Christ, while He was on earth prospered yet he made not a dime of what you refer to as good money. Jesus Christ said that those who belong to Him will do the works that He did and more -- prosperity - John 14 vs 6 - 12. In the Kingdom of God prosperity is about doing the works that Jesus Christ and more -- that is the standard that we are to meet and beat as followers of Jesus Christ and that requires storing up wealth for ourselves in Heaven and not here on earth. undecided

Prosperity is prosperity, making money is not the same as prosperity.

He is saying what i have just told you in reslect to the topic. Making money is not prosperity, though it is one of the sjgns of prosperity.

That muslim is only passing another great message that people take lightly, which is "Fear God" for everything can be made good or bad for you, by His Hands.

Thus, prosperity can become an evil thing unto a person whom The Lord hates as confirmed by people who have confessed that they were happier when they were poor.

Happy Sunday brethren!
May God answer our prayers as we gather together today, in His presence, Amen!

I still want to present the topic above for discussion.

I want to prosper because God's word says so according to 3rd John 2.

As a responsible person, by God's grace, quite a number of people, from my family, then extended to other relationship, are benefiting from my welfare gestures.

Is it wrong for me to say; Father, show me the way to make good money, so that I can be blessing to meet the required needs of those concerned?

Please let us make comments on this topical issue. God bless you.

Hello @freedom2023...
May God answer your prayers. Amen.

Please share your thoughts on this topic. Also anyone who's reading this post.

Enough of lack. It's time to get my hands and brain to work. And I desire to make good money, solve my problems and be a blessing as God's vessel.

Therefore, to make good money, isn't it God's evidence of my prosperity?

Please place your comments...
God bless you....

The love of God for us


John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.


When Adam sinned, he lost the direct access he initially had with God. (Genesis 3) God decided to send his only begotten son (Jesus) to pay the price for our sins on the cross of calvary because of his love for us. When Christ resurrected, he restored all privileges that we once had and brought redemption to us all. All we need is to believe that he died for our sin and has once again granted us direct access with God. No longer through an intermediary! (Mathew 27:50-53).

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

If our earthly parents care so much for us, how much more our father in heaven! (Luke 11:11-13). God’s love for us is infinite. He has promised to supply all our needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philipians 4:19).


Prayer of Salvation

Lord Jesus, I accept and acknowledge you as my personal lord and savior. I sincerely ask that you forgive my sins. Come into my life and pour out your spirit on me. By faith, I receive the promise of the father, which is the holy spirit. (John 14:16) I thank you for the price that you paid for me on the cross of calvary. Thank you for my redemption. I pray that your power, grace and favor will abide with me now and forever more. Amen.
