Poverty or Prosperity? 1 Kings 18:21; And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. (That's Poverty) v22; Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the Lord. (That's Prosperity) Poverty has no base; Ephesians 4:14; That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive. But, Basic Prosperity has a base; Deuteronomy 28:9; The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways. That Base of Prosperity; 2 Chronicles 20:20; Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. Basic Prosperity! Keep It or Lose It; Moses; Hebrews 11:25; Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; v26; Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. Basic Prosperity! Teaching! Overseer/Apostle
