God’s Laws of Prosperity Pt. 3

“God’s Rules for Reaping”

1. God Wants You To Work

        God says if you are able bodied and don’t work, you shouldn’t eat.
        (2 Thessalonians 3:10) “.. If any would not work, neither should he eat.” 

2. God expects you to be diligent(have energetic effort)
   
   1. Lazy people will have little, if any, harvest

(Proverbs 24:30, 31) “I went by the field of the slothful and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding; and, lo, it was grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down.”

2. If you can work without supervision, you will have more than enough.

(Proverbs 6:6-8) “Go to the ant, thou sluggard, consider her ways and be wise: Which having no guide, overseer or ruler, Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.”

3. Diligent, hardworking people will reap.
   
   (Galatians 6:9) “And let us not be weary in well doing; for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”
   
4. God gives the gift of salvation
   
   (Ephesians 2:8) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it [your salvation] is the gift of God.”
   
5. God gives faith to every believer 
   
   (Romans 12:3)  “…God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.”
   
6. God gives everything that is needed for life and godliness 
   
   (2 Peter 1:3)  “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness...”
   
7. God’s greatest gift is Jesus
   
   (John 3:16) “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” 
   
   One of the best ways to be like God is also be a good giver
