Scripture Text: 2 Corinthians 8:9

People have been living under the curse of law (sin, death, sickness, and poverty) ever since Adam and Eve disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden. Being poor is a curse!

Thanks be to God, who saved us from the curse of the law, which included being poor, through our Lord Jesus Christ's death on the cross to pay for our sins.

Through Christ, there are ways to get out of poverty, and we will look at them today.

- To get out of poverty, you must first believe in God's Word, admit it, follow it, and make God your first priority. Matthew 6:33 in God's Word tells us how to get rich. It says, "Seek first the Kingdom of God and its Righteousness," and "everything else will be added to you." How can you first seek the Kingdom of God and what is right in it? By putting God first in everything you do and making sure that your thoughts and deeds are always in line with how to build the Kingdom of God.

- Being "broken" is the second key. Brokenness means giving up everything and submitting to God in every part of your life. In times of trouble, God will give you His wealth and put it in your hands. Because He is sure that you will follow God's directions for how to use the money.

- The third thing a man can do to get out of poverty is to give. Giving people who are happy bring open heavens, not just for money problems, but for all kinds of problems. Being kind to people, generous to God, and welcoming brings God's kindness of givers that creates netbreaking wealth.

- Having strong faith is the fourth key to getting out of poverty. If you believe with all your heart that being born again in Christ has brought you divine benefits, then you are already free from poverty and can enjoy wealth through Christ in you. Every day, claim this gift and enjoy it.

- To be reliable is the fifth key. The Holy Spirit makes people faithful. If you do what God tells you to do with the little things He has given you, He will give you bigger things (1 Corinthians 4:2).

- Prayer is another important key. Like Jabez did in 1 Chronicles 4:10, you can pray that you will not be poor. When Jabez got tired of being poor, he cried out to God in prayer. God saved him by blessing him and making his coast bigger.

- God's anointing frees people from poverty. In Isaiah 10:27, it says that God's anointing has the power to break every chain. Every day, ask God to give you this anointing.

- Sowing is the seventh strategy for getting out of poverty. In the Kingdom of God, the rule of sowing and reaping is still very important. Give God your life, your time, your money, and everything else you have, and you will be free from poverty (2 Corinthians 2:9; 9:6–9).

- Offering sacrifice is the eighth key to getting rid of poverty in your life. As God's Spirit tells you, if you give what will cost you a lot, you will get a nice gift from heaven.

- Ninth, break any promises of poverty that are holding you back. If the agreement was made by you, someone else, or passed down from generation to generation, it must be broken by the power in the blood of Jesus in the name of Jesus Christ.

- You can get out of poverty by daily claiming the blessing that Abraham got through Christ. You can get Abraham's blessing through Christ if you've already been born again. All you have to do is stand up and take what is yours.

- If you have prayed a lot but haven't seen any effects, go for deliverance. So that the strongman of poverty can let you go, you need a group of people with more Godly power to pray for you.

- Cleanse your surroundings, where you work, live, or do business with the Blood of Jesus to get rid of any evil spirits that have made it impossible for anyone to succeed there. Pray for healing to happen in these places.

—Invest with hope and good sense. Anyone who wants to start a business or spend money should first pray to God and ask for His blessing. He will certainly bless it if He agreed with it. If not, it could make people poor.

- Pray for poverty-destroying prayers and prayers that bring wealth. Prayer makes things different! The powerful prayers of the righteous help a lot. This will cause God to open the clouds and give you your wealth, and evil banks will throw up your money.

—Ask God to help you figure out how much to give. Before you give your money away, think about it and ask God to bless it. Being wise is a good thing to do. Before you give someone money, you should always cover it in the Blood of Jesus Christ, the Fire of God, and the name of Jesus Christ.

- Stop saying bad things about yourself like that you are poor. This is what kills wealth. If you keep telling people you're poor, you might always be poor.

- Use the Blood of Jesus Christ to protect your possessions, money, or goods from all kinds of wasters, devourers, and emptiers.

- Always ask God's guidance and grace to lead you to hidden wealth through Christ Jesus.

- To make your business successful, ask God to give you good ideas, the ability to handle your time well, divine wisdom, the spirit of excellence, divine bargaining skills, good management skills, and the ability to make good decisions. This will help you hire the right employees who will understand your vision and be fully committed to it. With God's help, you can get out of poverty if you have the right tools and the right people.

- Finally, tithe consistently according to Malachi 3:10-12. Do not eat the seed. Giving back to God, who gives you life and everything you need, shouldn't be hard for you. Be smart!

God bless you, in the mighty name of Jesus Chrsit! Amen!

If you would like to give your life to Christ just say this short prayer:

"Lord Jesus, I come to You now, come into my life, take control of my life and change my world. I say bye-bye to the devil, I enter into the Kingdom of Light. Thank You Lord Jesus Christ, in Jesus anme I pray, amen"

Congratulations!!!

Peace!
