“The greatest achievement of the enemy is not an active sinner but an inactive Christian unaware of the power available to them.”

I recently posted that statement on Facebook and Twitter….it generated a lot of likes, retweets and shares.

There are some believers. . .I choose not to say many believers. . .who continually wonder why they are not walking in the prosperity and success promised in the Bible.  Truthfully, it’s because they do not understand or fully utilize the power of God available to and through them in their daily lives.

How do we walk in the power, success and prosperity of God?  It all begins with faith.

The next three scriptures are going to make you SHOUT!!!

Romans 15:13 in the Amplified Bible says:

“May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope.”

The experience. . .the exercising of our faith unleashes the power of the Holy Spirit.

Have you ever wondered why your prayers aren’t being answered?

Have you ever wondered if God really hears your prayers?

Have you ever wondered what the scriptures say about your prayers being unanswered?

Here are seven reasons God won’t answer your prayers.

First, doubt and do without. . .the effects of unbelief.

Matthew 13:58 in the Amplified Bible says:

“And He did not do many works of power there, because of their unbelief (their lack of faith in the divine mission of Jesus).”

If we ever doubt that God is a miracle working God. . .then we will live our lives without manifesting the power and promises of God.

Luke 17:19 in the Amplified Bible says:

10.  If we're comfortable where we are...we'll never discover. . .where we could be.

  9.  If we’re afraid of what’s going to happen. . .we’re not listening to the One who makes things happen.

  8.  When we see ourselves the way God sees us then we will never live in limitation again.

  7.  Instead of getting down on yourself...get high on God and His plans for your life.

  6.  Our goals gain power when we write them down...and more power every time we review/act on what we've written.

Here are the Top 5 Rich Thoughts Nuggets of the week.

  5.  Plan tonight to release the past and plan for your future...starting tomorrow. Jeremiah 29:11

We must stop being a debt-generating Christian and become a wealth-producing, people-blessing believer.

It’s decision time.  Today, we will decide whether to continue living our lives the way we’ve been living or change to debt-free living.

Here are seven ways to stop being a debt generating Christian and save more of what you make.

#1        Develop Your Spiritual Resistance.

Focus on scriptures involving personal discipline and the ability to withstand temptation by just saying “no” or walking on by.

The debtors are you best friend. . .so long as you pay your minimum payments on time and don’t exceed your credit limit.  If or when either of those scenarios take care. . .your friends at the credit card companies begin to change their outlook.

Habakkuk 2:7 in the Amplified Bible says:

There’s an old saying “what a difference a day makes.”

In fact, it was made into a great song by Dinah Washington. . .but it’s so much more than a song.

Every day we have the opportunity to make a difference.   How can we make a difference in our days?

William Arthur Ward, well-known for his inspirational quotes, offered some pretty good advice when he said:

“Do more than belong: participate. Do more than care: help. Do more than believe: practice. Do more than be fair: be kind. Do more than forgive: forget. Do more than dream: work.”

There are 169 days left in this year . . .each one a unique opportunity for us to make 2015 the greatest year of our lives.

Prosper is a word you hear frequently mentioned in sermons, books and other teachings.

In order to properly understand why God wants you to prosper. . .it's important to first gain a scriptural insight on what the word actually means as defined in the Bible.

According to Strong’s Concordance there are three primary Hebrew words used for prosper in the Old Testament.

1. H6743 is used 49 times and it is translated as:

“to advance, prosper, make progress, succeed, be profitable, to make prosperous”

2 Chronicles 26:5 says:

“And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God: and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper.”

1.  H7919 is used 8 times and it is translated as:

I want to ask you four questions.

Your immediate and progressive response to these questions will determine, in no small manner, the way you'll finish 2015

First, how valuable is your life?

Second, how valuable is your time?

Third, how long did it take someone to design, engineer and construct the building you are sitting in?

Fourth, is your life and time more valuable than the building you are sitting in?

Now here are the answers.

10.  Our internal thoughts (beliefs, feelings and convictions) determine our outward reality.

  9.  A poor self-image will cause a person to underestimate themselves or over-estimate others.

  8.  If we don't expect the seed we've sown to produce a harvest . . .we have, in fact, robbed it of its ability to do so.

  7.  When we get specific with God…He gets specific with us.

  6.  Money is neither good nor bad. . .it’s neutral. It just reflects the mentality and character of the person who possesses it.

Here are the Top 5 Rich Thoughts Nuggets of the week.
