The Power of Prosperity is: Love

1. I Kings 5:3 (Solomon the King truly loved the Lord with high degree)

“And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.”

2. I Kings 5:4 (Solomon the King was faithful and committed at bring burnt offerings and offering them in high degree)

“And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.”

3. I Kings 5:5 (The Lord sought out Solomon to give him the desires of his heart for his faithfulness and giving heart of excellence)

“In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.”

4. I Kings 5:9 (Solomon asked for wisdom and God gave him wisdom and prosperity due to Solomon’s love toward God)

“Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people? 10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing. 11 And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment; 12 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee. 13 And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.”

5. Matthew 6:21 / Luke 12:34 (Solomon’s heart was totally toward God and God’s heart was totally toward Solomon’s desire) Here is a scripture that speaks toward the revelation of the heart:

“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”

6. Luke 6:38 (We must give out of love like God gave out of love to save us by offering the greatest offering – His only Son “Jesus Christ” for our sins and eternal life / This is the Power of GIVING) John 3:16

Please review this scripture:
“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.”

7. Genesis 26:12 – (You must love to sow in order to expect a good harvest)

“Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.”

8. Ecclesiastes 10:19 – (Money answereth all things regarding the good supply of this world but God answereth all concerns that things cannot solve)

God comes first regarding all concerns and money comes according to its intended purpose of things (which comes from God) regarding the desires and necessities of this world:

“A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.”

1Corinthatins 13:13 – (Charity/Love is the greatest gift of all that produces and becomes the vain by which prosperity follows) LOVE!

“And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.”
