Matthew 6:19-34
Living Bible {Paraphrased}
19 {And Jesus said} “Don’t store up treasures here on earth where they can erode away or may be stolen. 20 Store them in heaven where they will never lose their value and are safe from thieves. 21 If your profits are in heaven, your heart will be there too. 22 “If your eye is pure, there will be sunshine in your soul. 23 But if your eye is clouded with evil thoughts and desires, you are in deep spiritual darkness. And oh, how deep that darkness can be! 24 “You cannot serve two masters: God and money. For you will hate one and love the other, or else the other way around. 25 “So my counsel is: Don’t worry about things—food, drink, and clothes. For you already have life and a body—and they are far more important than what to eat and wear. 26 Look at the birds! They don’t worry about what to eat—they don’t need to sow or reap or store up food—for your heavenly Father feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than they are. 27 Will all your worries add a single moment to your life? 28 “And why worry about your clothes? Look at the field lilies! They don’t worry about theirs. 29 Yet King Solomon in all his glory was not clothed as beautifully as they. 30 And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and gone tomorrow, won’t he more surely care for you, O men of little faith? 31-32 “So don’t worry at all about having enough food and clothing. Why be like the heathen? For they take pride in all these things and are deeply concerned about them. But your heavenly Father already knows perfectly well that you need them, 33 and he will give them to you if you give him first place in your life and live as he wants you to. 34 “So don’t be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of your tomorrow too. Live one day at a time.
God isn't about money. God is about the Salvation of human souls. The Lord Jesus didn't use money to save our souls. Getting to heaven isn't about money. His plan of Salvation is not solely about making someone rich with money. His plan is to prosper us as we seek Him first. God's Kingdom is about a spiritual relationship with Him. Not about money. Money is included as a by standard. A secodary and temporary teaching only for this life. Tghere'll be no money in the New Jerusalem (Revelation cghapters 21 and 22).
The "Prosperity Gospel" that we're referring to, the teaching that God condemns as false, is the one about making people rich, and not about getting souls saved. We're soul winners preaching to win souls into God's Kingdom. Not to teach Seminars about making them rich.
The false prophets from the world system teach you how to make money, not how to get you saved, born again, Spirit filled and ready for the Rapture. God is not into poverty, however. Seek first God's Kingdom, and all these things for basic survival that money buys, will be given to you by God.
I once got a message from the ArchAngel Ariel in 2006 telling me that God will give me money when I relate to Him. This means to put Him first. Ariel continued saying that God has channels for my prosperity.
When you relate to God and do His Word, He'll bring people and circumstances to you to prosper you financially. But if you are alone, you will not become successful with money.
So God knows that we need money to make a life in this world, and He will get us the money that He needs for us to have when we relate to Him. To relate to God means to have a personal relationship with Him. To listen to Him. Ariel called God "The Source". This is what the Angels call God.
Everything we need comes from God. When we relate to Him, He gives us money and what we need. This is what the Lord Jesus is saying in Matthew chapter 6, above. Now that we understand that money and financial prosperity comes through a relationship with Christ, we can also underatand verses like these,
Wealth, Health And The Anointing
3 John 1:2
Authorized (King James) Version
2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
Jeremiah 29:11
Living Bible
11 For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
To relate to Jesus about money means that you have to be completely devoted to Him in your heart. This what He means in His teaching about money in Matthew 6:24,
24 “You cannot serve two masters: God and money. For you will hate one and love the other, or else the other way around."
Hate money and love Jesus. To love God more than money because He's the Source of money. Jesus will give you money when you relate to Him like that, i.e. by loving Him more than money. When you love Jesus more than money, you will become like the Apostle Paul and I about money. We are full and have need of nothing. We aren't rich, but we have everything we need in Christ.
Philippians 4:18-20
Authorized (King James) Version
18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God. 19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. 20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
The secret to being like this is to know Jesus. When you know God, or, are born again and Spirit filled, God will answer your prayers, or, grant your wishes. For example, I am a product of California Prison Ministry. Back in 1999 on a Level 3 Reception Yard in Southern California for a DUI w/ priors, after being dressed out and sent to a Reception Yard Tier by R & R (Receiving And Release), I needed House Shoes.
California used to buy thousands of Oriental House Shoes back then because they were like 99 cents a pair and made them State Issue. They were black with flat orange bottoms. Karate shoes. That's what they were. Martial Artists use them in their Dojos. The pair I got was too big. So I was wishing for another pair. In the Reception Yard, you only get one pair of House Shoes. When you're transfered to your Housing unit after 90-days of Classification, you get State Issue Boots, Tennis Shoes and Slippers, for the Shower.
One day, a pair of House shoes dropped in front of my cell door. Brand new and unused. Another inmate on the tier above mine got transferred and when people do this, they usaually leave everything because you get new State issues at the yard you're being classified to.
So a Trustee was sweeping off the above tiers after dinner. A daily clean up time during count time. When they do this, they sweep everything off the top tiers to the bottom floor where I was. Then sweep it all into one big circle and pick it up with a dust pan. So someone left a brand new pair of slippers and transferred. I asked the bottom tier Trustee to kick them under my door. God granted my wish. That's just one example. I have thousands of testimonies. But suffice it to have this one only.
When you're a Christian, God will do this for you. This is why the Lord Jesus says in Matthew 6 that we don't need to worry about needing anything because God knows what we need before we ask Him. He'll grant your wishes before you ask Him for them.
You can also use your faith to draw up a formal prayer Petition with God's Promises to Supply to get what you need and want from God too.
When you relate to God like this, you won't want money. Someone can bring you $42 million dollars and you're not going to want it, because you have Jesus in you. This means that you have everything you want and need because you're a Christian. That's what Paul means in Philippians 4:18 when he says,
"But I have all, and abound: I am full..."
In other words, Paul said, "I'm good. I don't need nothing because I got Jesus. But my God shall supply all your need in Christ too. That's what it's like to have God in you.
So, God's Kingdom is not about getting rich with money. It's about getting rich toward God, or, about KNOWING Jesus. We don't want money because we're full and lack nothing through relations to God. We want God. Not money. God is the Source. Money is meaningless to us. Jesus means everything to us. If you got everything, what's money to you? You're going to have everything and you're going to have no desire for money because you got everything you need. That's what it's like to have God in you. You desire Jesus' Presence, not money.
If you're full from eating or drinking, then food and water aren't going to mean anything to you. When you're full from having your needs met, you're not going to want money. Only those who don't have the Presence of the Lord are about this following motto because they don't have Jesus granting their wishes and prayers.
"Get all you can. Can all you get. Then sit on the can".
Spiritual Prosperity
So God does teach about money. But He teaches a spiritual prosperity, not a monetary one, called "God First." When you've been born again and your spiritual life with God comes first, then God gives you money.
For example, I put God first and He gives me monthly royalties from an untaxable and unearned income. When the Lord brought me out of my backslidings during the coronavirus outbreak on Easter last year, He began a one year crucifixion that I'm still experiencing today. I looked like a zombie back then as God killed that part of me that backslide on Him. People didn't like the look in my eyes. But God told that I wasn't dead (that I hadn't lost the baptism into the Holy Spirit) and that He was still in my bones.
People know the enjoyment of Dinner & A Movie. It's idolatry. God killed that worldly enjoyment and I'm almost completely devoted to God in works as when I first got baptized into the Holy Spirit in 1991. He crucified "the pleasure of sin". (Hebrews 11:25).
My point is that God revived my work as a preacher with a new role as a Prophet. My motivational drives are reading and writing. I'm a writer. Now, with the Anointing, My works are different than as when I first got saved. They used to be faith based Bible teachings. Today, they are Prophecies and Teachings, where I write what the spirits say through my mouth along with Biblical teachings. The spirits that talk in me are the Holy Spirit and the Angels of Light. Possessed by God.
My monthly royalties went up a lot last month. I inquired of the Lord about this and He said that He's giving me money for putting Him first and writing what He said to write here on this website. When you put God first, He'll give you money. God is paying me over abundantly for all the sleepless nights I stayed up with Him writing when and what He said to write for you people who read here these Prophecies of His.
So Christianity is about being completely devoted to God. Not about making money. God gives us money as we put Him first in life. God first. The Anointing. Knowing Jesus.
Philippians 3:7-14
Authorized (King James) Version
7 But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, 9 and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: 10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 if by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
To have God live inside of you like this, is called the Baptism into the Holy Spirit. I'll get to how to get your portion, or, measure, of the Lord's Spirit, later on in this Post. My point is to say that when you're anointed with the Spirit, it means that the Anointing and knowing Jesus are the true riches.
In Matthew 6:32, Jesus made a reference to people who don't know God. He calls them Gentiles. He says in verse 31 that they seek after food and clothing because they don't know God. To the Gentiles, the Anointing and knowing the Lord aren't going to make sense because their minds are psychologically programmed by Satan's world system to make a living. It's called, "The Survival mode: Make a living by making money".
But we Christians have had our minds transformed and renewed by the Bible and the Holy Spirit to put God first in our hearts. This is called being born again and Baptized into the Holy Spirit.
Born Again By The Spirit And The Word
John 3:1-8
Authorized (King James) Version
1-2 After dark one night a Jewish religious leader named Nicodemus, a member of the sect of the Pharisees, came for an interview with Jesus. “Sir,” he said, “we all know that God has sent you to teach us. Your miracles are proof enough of this.” 3 Jesus replied, “With all the earnestness I possess I tell you this: Unless you are born again, you can never get into the Kingdom of God.” 4 “Born again!” exclaimed Nicodemus. “What do you mean? How can an old man go back into his mother’s womb and be born again?” 5 Jesus replied, “What I am telling you so earnestly is this: Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God. 6 Men can only reproduce human life, but the Holy Spirit gives new life from heaven; 7 so don’t be surprised at my statement that you must be born again! 8 Just as you can hear the wind but can’t tell where it comes from or where it will go next, so it is with the Spirit. We do not know on whom he will next bestow this life from heaven.”
Titus 3:4-6
Authorized (King James) Version
4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
Romans 12:2
Authorized (King James) Version
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
1 Peter 1:22-25
Authorized (King James) Version
22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 23 being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. 24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: 25 but the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
Ezekiel 36:25-27
Living Bible
25 “‘Then it will be as though I had sprinkled clean water on you, for you will be clean—your filthiness will be washed away, your idol worship gone. 26 And I will give you a new heart—I will give you new and right desires—and put a new spirit within you. I will take out your stony hearts of sin and give you new hearts of love. 27 And I will put my Spirit within you so that you will obey my laws and do whatever I command.
The Christian Life Is A Work Of God
In verse 27, God says that He will put His Spirit inside of us so that we will be able to obey His laws and do whatever He commands us. Putting God first is impossible for the flesh. So is doing any of God's laws and commands in the Bible. The Holy Spirit makes us obey the Bible. He puts Jesus first in our hearts when we get born again and baptized into the Holy Spirit. It is a work of God. Not of ourselves.
We can't put Jesus first over money. When He commands us to seek first God's Kingdom in Matthew 6:33, there's no way to do without the Holy Spirit. When God gives you a law or a command, you're supposed to ask Him to help you do them. It's impossible to put spirituality before money and to put Jesus before your survival, if you're a Gentile. To make God more valuable than your life and to love Jesus more than your life, you can't do it without being born again and baptized into the Holy Spirit. This is how Jesus prepares His Bride for the Rapture by doing this work in your heart. He makes us obey the Bible with the Holy Spirit. God is the one who does this. He's going to make you like that through the born again experience. Born again by the Spirit and the Word.
The Holy Spirit uses the Bible to clean us, or, to make us born again
The Holy Spirit Is The Living Water
John 7:37-39
Authorized (King James) Version
37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. 38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. 39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
The Word of God Is The Bible
The Bible Is Spiritual Water
Psalm 119:9, 10
Authorized (King James) Version
9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word. 10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.
Psalm 119:9, 10
Living Bible
9 How can a young man stay pure? By reading your Word and following its rules. 10 I have tried my best to find you—don’t let me wander off from your instructions.
John 15:1-3
Authorized (King James) Version
1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
Ephesians 5:25-27
Authorized (King James) Version
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 that he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Those who have been born again and baptized into the Holy Spirit, are the Living. They are God-Conscious as compared to the world who are self-conscious. The Dead. When God lives in you, you have the meaning of life. The joy, peace and love that the Dead will never have. Zombies. A body with no Spirit.
Psalm 16:11
Authorized (King James) Version
11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
Romans 14:17
Authorized (King james) Version
17 for the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Money Answers All Things Except Salvation
Ecclesiastes 10:19
Authorized (King James) Version
19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.
In this world you can have money to meet all your desires. But it can't get you saved. Salvation has to come before money. Money is a commodity. It is not evil. The LOVE of money is the root of all evil.
1 Timothy 6:1-12
Authorized (King James) Version
1 Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed. 2 And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort. 3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 5 perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.
The Human Heart Is Evil. Not Money.
Jeremiah 17:9, 10
Authorized (King James) Version
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 10 I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
When you love God more than money He'll give you money because He can trust you, and only God can make you this way. It's a work of God. A work of Grace. Don't try to put God before money without asking Him to make you this way.
Instead of taking the laws and commands of God in the Bible and trying your hardest to do them, instead of trying hard enough to believe the Bible, ask Jesus to do it in you. Ask God to put Himself before money in your heart. Or, keep reading the Bible, because the Bible is the source of faith in God.
Romans 10:17
Authorized (King James) Version
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
The "Prosperity Gospel" that we're referring to and that God condemns as false teaching, is the one that teaches you how to make money by Preaching and don't talk to you about spiritual rebirth. About getting born again and baptized into the Holy Spirit. About making a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. About repentance and going to home to God through the Cross.
This false Gospel Preaches the Bible. They look real. But inside, their motive in Preaching is to get your money, not to get you saved. Wolves in Sheeps clothing. They teach Self-Consciousness instead of God-Consciousness. This is what Lucifer does.
God creates dignity through God-Consciousness, not Self-Value through Self-Consciousness. God's love for you creates your dignity. When He loves you unconditionally like no one else can, your dignity will edify to loftiness.
The Luciferian Illuminati teachings in this world are called Self-Consciousness and Self-Value. They're putting your Self above God. That's the Prosperity Gospel that God condemns as false prophecy from false prophets. False prophecies make mean and millionaires. They don't get them born again.
The Teachings Of God's Kingdom. These Are Not About Becoming Rich With Money.
Hebrews 6
Living Bible
1 Let us stop going over the same old ground again and again, always teaching those first lessons about Christ. Let us go on instead to other things and become mature in our understanding, as strong Christians ought to be. Surely we don’t need to speak further about the foolishness of trying to be saved by being good, or about the necessity of faith in God; 2 you don’t need further instruction about baptism and spiritual gifts and the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment. 3 The Lord willing, we will go on now to other things.
1) V 1. The Foolishness Of Trying To Be Saved By Being Good.
2) V 1. The Necessity of Faith In God To Be Saved.
3) V 2. Baptism - Water and the Holy Spirit.
4) V 2. Spiritual Gifts.
5) V 2. Resurrection Of The Dead
6) V 2. Eternal Judgement
7) Vv 4-8. You Can Lose Your Salvation.
4 There is no use trying to bring you back to the Lord again if you have once understood the Good News and tasted for yourself the good things of heaven and shared in the Holy Spirit, 5 and know how good the Word of God is, and felt the mighty powers of the world to come, 6 and then have turned against God. You cannot bring yourself to repent again if you have nailed the Son of God to the cross again by rejecting him, holding him up to mocking and to public shame. 7 When a farmer’s land has had many showers upon it and good crops come up, that land has experienced God’s blessing upon it. 8 But if it keeps on having crops of thistles and thorns, the land is considered no good and is ready for condemnation and burning off.
8) Vv 9-18 Endure Hardness To The End To Keep Your Salvation.
9 Dear friends, even though I am talking like this I really don’t believe that what I am saying applies to you. I am confident you are producing the good fruit that comes along with your salvation. 10 For God is not unfair. How can he forget your hard work for him, or forget the way you used to show your love for him—and still do—by helping his children? 11 And we are anxious that you keep right on loving others as long as life lasts, so that you will get your full reward. 12 Then, knowing what lies ahead for you, you won’t become bored with being a Christian nor become spiritually dull and indifferent, but you will be anxious to follow the example of those who receive all that God has promised them because of their strong faith and patience. 13 For instance, there was God’s promise to Abraham: God took an oath in his own name, since there was no one greater to swear by, 14 that he would bless Abraham again and again, and give him a son and make him the father of a great nation of people. 15 Then Abraham waited patiently until finally God gave him a son, Isaac, just as he had promised. 16 When a man takes an oath, he is calling upon someone greater than himself to force him to do what he has promised or to punish him if he later refuses to do it; the oath ends all argument about it. 17 God also bound himself with an oath, so that those he promised to help would be perfectly sure and never need to wonder whether he might change his plans. 18 He has given us both his promise and his oath, two things we can completely count on, for it is impossible for God to tell a lie. Now all those who flee to him to save them can take new courage when they hear such assurances from God; now they can know without doubt that he will give them the salvation he has promised them.
8) Vv 19, 20 We Have An Eternal Home In Heaven
19 This certain hope of being saved is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls, connecting us with God himself behind the sacred curtains of heaven, 20 where Christ has gone ahead to plead for us from his position as our High Priest, with the honor and rank of Melchizedek.
The Way A True Born Again And Spirit Filled Christian Lives
Acts 2:42
Authorized (King James) Version
42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
1) They listen to the Apostles teachings in the New Testament about being involved in regular,
2) Fellowship in Church
3) Communion
4) And Prayer
Church, Communion and Prayer. The false prophets do not teach these things. They teach you how to become rich and that's it. Nor can the false prophets anoint you with the Holy Spirit.
"Knowing Jesus Is The True Riches"
