Make Satan Listen to Your Praises
Aug 31st
By F.F. Bosworth
Instead of your listening to the Father of Lies, make him listen to your praising God for His promise!
“Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord” (Ps. 150:6). The sick man has breath. In other words, while you are still sick, praise Him because you are going to recover according to His promise. “Let not your heart be troubled” (John 14:1, 27). “In nothing be anxious [distracted]; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God” (Phil. 4:6, RV). “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you” (1 Pet. 5:7).
Every sick Christian, while sick has a thousand times more to be happy over than the most cheerful sinner in perfect health.

God’s Word Reveals Truth
By Benny Hinn
Many people attempt to comprehend what God is doing in the world without intimately knowing the God of the Bible.
Their minds may be filled with knowledge, yet they cannot understand what they have read because they don’t seek Him diligently through His Word.
When a relationship is established, a revelation also grows, as Evangelist Dwight L. Moody once said, “A Christian on his knees will see more than a philosopher on his tip toes.”

Prosperity…Is It Biblical? : Benny Hinn

Prosperity…Is It Biblical?
The term “prosperity teaching” or “prosperity Gospel” is one of the most misunderstood and misused terms in today’s language.
I believe biblical prosperity is scriptural, and it is taught throughout the Bible. Giving to the Lord is so important that God has promised that those who give for the work of the Gospel will be blessed and protected.
Today I want to share with you what the Scriptures have to say about biblical prosperity, because I believe we are coming into a time of great abundance for the sake of the Gospel. The Gospel is being preached around the world, and a great harvest of blessings is coming to those who are supporting the cause of Christ around the world.
Prosperity Results from Righteousness and Faithfulness
The Word of God declares: “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth” (3 John 2). Prosperity is not an accident but the result of the Word of God being in our life.
Righteousness puts us in line to receive great blessings from the Lord: “In the house of the righteous is much treasure” (Proverbs 15:6), and “By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, and honour, and life” (Proverbs 22:4).
Faithfulness to God is the key to prosperity, and only faithfulness brings us into that place where God can begin to bless us financially: “A faithful man shall abound with blessings” (Proverbs 28:20).
The Lord has given each person certain abilities and gifts, and He expects us to be faithful with them. He expects us to tend to and nurture these abilities and gifts so we might produce fruit for His glory and kingdom!
The Word of the Lord tells us clearly that only as we keep and nurture our gifts will we be able to reap their benefits: “Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured” (Proverbs 27:18). As we stay faithful with the gifts God has given us, we will receive fruit in abundance.
