CHILD-FRIENDLY PROSPERITY!

Memory Verse: 3 John 1:2 (ESV) “Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.”

 

What Is Prosperity? Prosperity means doing well in life—being healthy, having what you need, and growing in your love for God. It’s not just about money; it’s about being blessed so you can be a blessing to others!

Where Does Prosperity Come From? 

Deuteronomy 8:18 says God gives us the power to get wealth. That means He helps us work hard, learn, and grow so we can help others and support His kingdom.

Is It Okay to Be Rich? Yes! God wants His children to do well. But we must love God more than money. 1 Timothy 6:10 warns us not to love money more than God. We should use what we have to help others and do good things.

God’s Promise to Bless Us 

- Psalm 1:3 says whatever we do will prosper when we follow God.

- Isaiah 48:17 says God teaches us how to succeed.

- Matthew 6:33 says when we seek God first, He gives us everything we need.

What Should We Do With Our Blessings? 

- Give to others – help those in need.

- Sow seeds – give tithes, offerings, and gifts.

- Be thankful – always thank God for what you have.

- Share – don’t keep everything to yourself.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS

1. What does “prosperity” mean to you?

2. How can you use what you have to help others?

3. Are you asking God to help you grow in health, wisdom, and kindness?

4. What can you give to God today—your time, your gifts, or your love?

PRAYER: Dear God, thank You for wanting me to do well and be healthy. Help me to use what You give me to help others and make You proud. Teach me how to grow in faith and be a blessing to everyone around me, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Shalom

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
