Luke 22:351 Thessalonians 4:12Psalm 34:10Hosea 4:6Joshua 18:2,3
Summary
Negative news reports of recession and economic chaos are constantly broadcast through various media outlets with the objective of planting fear of lack in your heart. However, you do not have to allow fear to take root in your heart. Fear is contaminated faith and will create an access point for the enemy into your life. Overcome the fear of lack by refusing to receive any words that contradict what God's Word says about provision.
Fear is a spirit that does not come from God (2 Timothy 1:6, 7).
If you tolerate fear on any level, it will contaminate your faith.
Fear gives Satan access into your life.
Fear and unbelief are tied together.
It is impossible to please God without faith.
Identify the areas in which you do not believe God's Word.
The primary fear Satan wants you to receive is the fear that God's Word will not work in your life.
Overcome the fear of lack.
Recognize lack is an enemy and God will wipe it out.
The Lord will cause the enemies that rise against you to be smitten before your face (Deuteronomy 28:7).
The plagues of the world shall not be upon you; or destroy you (Exodus 12:13, 14).
The power of God is available to supply all your needs.
For 40 years the Israelites did not lack anything in the wilderness (Deuteronomy 2:7).
Jesus told the disciples to go on a journey and take nothing with them (Luke 9:3-5).
The disciples lacked nothing while on their journey (Luke 22:35).
Walk honorably toward others and you will lack nothing (1 Thessalonians 4:12).
If you seek the Lord, you will not lack any beneficial thing (Psalm 34:10).
God says people are destroyed; or cut off because they lack knowledge (Hosea 4:6).
Seven tribes did not receive their inheritance because they were slow to believe and receive (Joshua 18:2, 3).
To be slack is to be slow to move, inactive, lazy, dull of perception, and slow to believe.
If you do not deal with unbelief, you will not receive God's best.

Prosperity: A Blessing or a Curse
Prosperity: A Blessing or a Curse
Dr. Creflo A. DollarFriday, February 08, 2008 7:00 PMScripture References
Deuteronomy 28:15-18, 20, 311 Peter 5:8Proverbs 10:15Proverbs 6:9-11
Galatians 3:13, 14, 16, 29Genesis 13:2Deuteronomy 28:1-14Deuteronomy 8:18
Summary
The most powerful spiritual invasion the devil will ever see is a Church that's aware of the right they have to prosper. Poverty is not God's creation. It's part of the curse and designed to destroy. Christians are blessed and empowered to prosper in every area of life, and must renew their mind with the Word of God, and what it says about prosperity.
Christians will never be free to prosper without finding out what the Word says about prosperity.
Without referring to the Word, Christians will continue to think there's something wrong with prosperity.
Satan has frightened some people into thinking there's something evil about money.
Because people in the world have gotten money through evil means, some people think it's evil.
Money does not belong to Satan; the Earth and the fullness thereof belongs to the Lord.
As Believers we must learn how to access the resources God provides.
Jesus demonstrated how to access the resources of Heaven when He supernaturally paid His taxes.
Poverty is part of the curse.
To be cursed means you have supernatural power working against you (Deuteronomy 28:15-18, 20, 31).
God didn't create poverty.
Poverty is a result of the fall of man.
Poverty is Satan's creation (1 Peter 5:8).
Poverty ruins and destroys lives (Proverbs 10:15).
Poverty robs and leaves you helpless and hopeless (Proverbs 6:9-11). iii. Satan is a thief; he's the one who robs.
Satan has promoted poverty by spreading lies.
If Satan can convince Believers to endorse poverty as a gift from God, he can rob you, and you'll believe poverty is God's will.
God will never endorse something that's designed to destroy.
Saying Jesus was poor is akin to saying He was cursed.
When you become born again, you are redeemed from Satan's curse of poverty (Galatians 3:13, 14, 16, 29).
You are Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promises God made Abraham.
You're no longer under the curse; you're under the blessing.
The blessing is supernatural power working for you.
The blessing, or the curse, affects every area of your life.
Reject everything that's under the curse.
Claim your prosperity.
Everything in your life starts with an agreement to claim it.
God promised you spiritual and natural prosperity (Genesis 13:2).
God wants you to have a surplus in every area of your life (Deuteronomy 28:1-14).
The key to prosperity is obedience to ways of God.
Obedience is the key to the blessing.
Disobedience blocks the blessing.
Strife, unforgiveness, and disobedience will hinder the supernatural power of God from working for you.
Obedience will cause the blessing to overtake you.
The curse is broken by obeying God's Word.
Spiritual principles alone will not cause prosperity; you must live according to God's Word or spiritual principles will not work.
There are two types of prosperity:
One type from Satan and one type from the Word of God.
There is prosperity that comes from the wicked; however, wicked means are not the only means to prosperity.
God gives you the power to get wealth so He can establish His covenant (Deuteronomy 8:18).

The Fearless Life (Pt. 3)
The Fearless Life (Pt. 3)
Dr. Creflo A. DollarSunday, January 11, 2009 10:00 AMScripture References
Job 1:1-15Job 1:6-12Job 3:252 Timothy 1:7Genesis 3:1-5
Job 1:5-12Job 3:25Mark 4:35-41Matthew 14:22-31
Summary
Fear is the reciprocal of faith and allows Satan access into your life. Fear is a spiritual force, just like faith, but fear will bring to pass what you do not want to happen. Guard against praying fear-based prayers, or practicing biblical principles out of fear. Refuse fear and walk by faith.
With fear as his motivation, Job repeatedly arose early in the morning and offered sacrifices to God on behalf of his children (Job 1:1-5).
By allowing fear to be his motivation, Job gave Satan access into his life.
God said everything Job owned was already in Satan's power because fear was present in Job's life (Job 1:6-12).
Job's fear opened the door for the enemy to destroy his children and possessions.
What Job greatly feared came upon him (Job 3:25).
What do you greatly fear?
Identify those areas and find out what God has said about them in His Word.
Refuse to allow fear to be your motivation for prayer i.e. you are afraid if you do not pray, something bad will happen.
God has not given you a spirit of fear (2 Timothy 1:7).
Pray your request one time; then continue to thank God for the manifestation of your prayer.
Satan wants you to fear God's Word will not work for you.
If you consider Satan's negative words, you will doubt God's Word.
Guard your heart; be sure you are not allowing Satan's words to get inside you.
Fear comes through words and images.
Choose to operate according to the Kingdom of God by refusing fear.
Fear is the reciprocal of faith.
Faith comes by hearing the Word of God.
Fear comes by hearing the words of Satan.
The foundation of fear is selfishness.
The foundation of faith is unconditional love.
When you are tempted to fear, say what God has said about the situation in His Word.
Every time you make the decision to operate in faith instead of fear, a great storm will come (Mark 4:35-41).
Stay focused on what Jesus has said to you (Mark 4:35).
Satan's goal is to cause you to doubt God.
For example, Jesus told the disciples they were all going over to the other side of the sea (Mark 4:36-41).
A storm arose and their boat began to be filled with water.
It seemed as if Jesus' words would not come to pass.
The disciples became afraid, and woke up Jesus, who rebuked the wind and commanded the sea to be still.
Jesus asked the disciples, Why are you so fearful?
Jesus' ability to walk on the sea demonstrated the power of faith over fear (Matthew 14:22-31).
Jesus dominated the natural law of gravity when He walked on water.
Peter's faith enabled him to walk on the water with Jesus (Matthew 14:29).
When Peter noticed the strong wind, he lost focus, became afraid, and began to sink.
Peter had a short burst of faith. In other words, his faith did not last very long.
When Satan puts challenges before you, will you doubt God and allow your faith to waver?
When you take a second thought about what God has said, you have granted fear access into your life.
Fear produces doubt.
Feed your faith with God's Word and starve doubt by refusing to receive anything that opposes His Word. Confession In the name of Jesus, I cast fear out of my life forever! Therefore, in my life, at this very moment, there is no fear. There is power, love, and a sound mind, but no fear here. I have faith that I am going to run over, in abundance, to the full, until it overflows. I have no fear of running out. There will be no lack in my life! I smite all lack in my life right now!
