YOU ARE NOT OF THIS ECONOMY

“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear son” Colossians 1:12-13

LIGHT FOR THE NOW: in Christ, we have and walk in superabundance.

The believer in Christ is a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light; an inheritance that is bigger than this world. In Christ, we have and walk in superabundance. There is no inflation, recession, lack or poverty. The economic situation in the world today may have left many terrified and hopeless but you must think differently. This is because you are not of this economy. You operate from a higher realm. You are greater than inflation, you are bigger than the economy. The Bible says, “Therefore, let no man glory in men. For all things are yours. Whether Paul or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; and ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s” 1 Corinthians 3:21-23. The world is yours and everything in it. Therefore, you must think and function differently. Job 22:29 says, “When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, there is a lifting up”. And in Jeremiah 17:7-8, the Bible says, “Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit”.

This is the reality about you, because you are the seed of Abraham. Your success, progress and prosperity are guaranteed even in the worst of austere times. Economic problems are not new. They happened even in the Bible days. However, God always led His people through them victoriously. Therefore, let your mind soar beyond the happenings in the country. Have the mentality of a victor. Choose to see things from God’s eternal perspective, and continually live with the consciousness that you are from above; a child of the kingdom bigger than the economy of the world.


INSTRUCTION: Acknowledge that you are a seed of Abraham.


PRAYER: Lord, I take possession of all that pertains to life and godliness as a joint heir with Christ. Amen.


QUOTE: Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world.
