Breaking the Curse of Poverty

Its God’s Way or No Way!

Pastor Herson Gonzalez

Calvary Worship Center

God has a manner of supplying our needs in the kingdom. He is very aware of the needs of his children.

It is important to understand God’s system in order to enjoy the abundance of God in our lives.

Nothing is automatic, if we want for the promises of God to be manifested in our lives; we ought to understand the spiritual laws that operate in the Kingdome of God.

You have to understand your plan. There is a plan of excellent just for you.

31. So do not worry, saying, ’What shall we eat?’ or ’What shall we drink?’ or ’What shall we wear?’ 32. For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Matt 6:31-33

He has a plan add to you what your needs are. Learn the plan! There are people in the kingdom with a rich father, but are poor and always complaining.

• God does not want for us to live anxious about things

Don’t say “what shall we eat” or “What shall we drink or wear”

Don’t live like someone that doesn’t have a father. Don’t worry about the basic things. He is saying, I will supply the basic things in life. He knows these things are important.

Don’t get nervous when you don’t see the basic needs met. God has already provided. God doesn’t want for us live worried.

• Our Heavenly Father knows all of our needs

He already knows everything you need. Because he knows you when you sleep, wake, rise, run, talk… you have a father. You are not an orphan

• God has a system to supply our needs.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Instead of being worried about these things, enter in the kingdom where everything is already supplied.

Chapter 4 Mark

v. 10. “Secrets of the Kingdom” Everything that is not revealed is a secret. To some Christians, Gods method of supplying needs has been a secret kept from them. It needs to be revealed, the curtain needs to be pulled back.

V.13 The starting point of everything you need to know in the bible, is right here. If you don’t understand this, you won’t understand anything else about the kingdom.

God’s Way

I. Understanding is Essential in Order to Receive the Prosperity of God.

If you don’t understand something, you can’t enjoy something. Wherever there is ignorance, you won’t get to enjoy anything.

There needs to be comprehension of what God has spoken. Many Christians live poor, because they don’t understand the principles.

There are three kinds of terrain where the seed of the word will not grow. Path, Rocky places, and Thorns.

Without fruit you can’t live. Eat, Dress, Drink.

The fourth terrain “Good Dirt”– good fruit 30 – 60 – 100 to one.

1st three were not good dirt. The last was good dirt.

There is a relationship between the seed and good dirt. The land must be good for the good seed to work. There is no bad seed, only bad dirt.

There are people in this church like the three bad dirts.

Some people are like seed along the path, where the word is sown.

As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.

Mark 4:15

When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.

Matt 13:19

Without understanding there is no provision. Understanding is more than information or knowledge. Understanding is the revelation of Knowledge.

You have all heard good word from this alter. You have heard how to become prosperous emotionally, physically, financially and socially. You have shouted, cried, prayed and run to this alter. But as soon as you leave, something happens… the good word gets snatched out of you, as if someone went into you and dug the seed it out with a shovel. Any distraction can rob your seed! (Junito – the most important thing is that you hear the word today.)

Don’t leave with the information I preach, let it become revelation in your life! Lack of understanding is what keeps us poor!

I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,

Eph 1:18

Ever wonder how many good things you have missed out on because of lack of understanding? You should be mad at yourself for all the things you missed due to your own ignorance. Satan doesn’t want for believers to understand the word of God. He doesn’t mind if you dance and shout – she just doesn’t ever want you to understand!
