QUALIFICATIONS FOR TRUE RICHES: SET RIGHTEOUS LAWS TO OBEY

Yesterday, I showed you that you cannot be healthier than the words that come out of your mouth. Today, I will be showing you the principle of setting righteous laws to qualify for true riches.

In our text, “The Law” was our tutor to bring us to faith. When faith came, we ceased to need the law. Until you put yourself under the law so that what you do becomes unconscious acts, you cannot truly be free. You cannot be praying only when you are led, as some people say.

If you pray for just 30 minutes every day, it will put prayer in your spirit such that when you do not pray, you will not feel fine. But if you say, I will just pray for seven hours only on Saturdays, your prayer life will always remain a mess. Put yourself under laws. Do not say, “I will give as I am led,” but set a minimum amount for your offering. Once you have put a law there, start climbing from there.

Nothing is going to become a force in your life until a law pushes you there, and that law, you will have to willingly put yourself under it. To develop yourself in reading the Bible, start by reading it thirty minutes every day or set yourself to reading two chapters per day. When I started reading the Bible, God told me to finish it four times a year, and I finished it four times a year for several years (seventeen years), not knowing God was using it to prepare me for ministry.

Prayer: Lord, I receive grace to embrace righteous laws that will accelerate the fulfilment of my destiny in Jesus’ name. Amen!
