QUOTES ON TOP

“I want something really worthwhile to live for. I want to invest this one life of mine as wisely as possible, in the place that yields the richest profits to the world and me…wherever it is, I want it to be God’s choice for me and not my own… Christ said, “He that would find his life shall lose it” and proved the truth of this divine paradox at Calvary. I want Him to lead me and His Holy Spirit to fill me.” – Betty Stam

AS YOUR SOUL PROSPERS...


One of the most beautiful wish I like in Bible is in III John verse 2. “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.” What a wonderful wish that also has a lively promise within it!

It’s true that God wants you to prosper in all things and be in health all through your life. Even we people have a greatest desire in our hearts that we have to prosper in all things. But do you think that prosperity comes just like that?

If we clearly look unto this passage we may understand the condition behind this promise. The verse clearly says at the end: “just as your soul prospers”. 

My dear young people you have to understand the truth. The prosperity of all things that you do and your good health depends on the condition of your soul. That why Bible clearly tells that you may prosper in all things just as your soul prospers. You may be in good health just as your soul prospers.

If you have to receive God’s abundance (prosperity), your soul has to prosper. If you do something that harms your soul, it will harm your life’s prosperity. Many young people are living in darkness without any blessing in their life because they kill their soul by doing sins. Sin destroys their prosperity.

Bible clearly says in James 1:15 that fullness of sin brings forth death. Fullness of your sin puts your soul to death. As your soul progress to death, your prosperity will also progress to death. In God you will obtain life. If you sin against God, you will receive death to your soul.

Proverbs 8:36 says “..He who sins against me wrongs his own soul; All those who hate me love death.” Ezekiel 18:20 says “The soul who sins shall die...”

Remember this very clearly: If you sin and do wrong things against God, your soul will die. Once your soul dies, your prosperity will also die. You can never prosper in all things when you sin against God.

What you have to do, to make your soul live?
Isaiah 55:3 “Incline your ear and come to Me. Hear, and your soul shall live....”
Your soul will live when you come to Jesus Christ and hear His voice. He is the way, truth and life.
My dear young child, you would have sinned against God. Because of your sins, you might have lost the prosperity of your soul. You life might be in a complete darkness without any blessing. Don’t worry my dear child, Jesus loves you a lot.

If you surrender your life to God and walk according to His counsel hearing His voice, He will restore your soul. Your soul will live and you will prosper in all things you do. God bless you.
