Favour plays a major role in the prospering of a person. Exodus 12 [36] And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required . And they spoiled the Egyptians. The children of Israel had spent much time struggling for four centuries doing many things right and wrong, working ha...

There are many questions that Christians ask concerning money and marriage. How do you for example recognise a gold-digger? Should you trust inner voices that are not backed by the expressed word of God in marriage? Does the Bible command that accounts be joint to be in unity? If God directed Hosea in marriage to a prostitute, can...

By Olabode Ososami

A message that does not contribute to the eradication of poverty and empowers the deprived in the community, spreading country wealth cannot be the good news that Christ was anointed to preach ... at best it is a contemporary sectarian heresy of the advantaged class or another subtle tool of oppression, in that it excludes Christ all together.

God is a great restorer and a great provider. He does not forget those who have given even when men have. The Bible also helps us to see that famines are called by God. There is hardly any famine mentioned in the Bible that is not shown as an instrument in the hands of God to get His own children to repent. God does not need to se...
Money and the Bible

Money is to be regarded as a gift from God to be used to the glory of the giver, God. We worship the giver and not the gift. We cannot therefore spend as we wish even if we can afford it knowing that we will give an account someday to the giver, God. We are only stewards of all that has been entrusted in our care. There are some princi...

I recently read a blog post on “What Can The Lord Get Out Of The One Earthly Life That I Have?” by Zac Poonen of CFC Bangalore, India - in which he reminds us that many think in terms of the minimum necessary to please God resulting mainly in legalism. Where they tithe for example they calculate exactly how much 10% o...

Harry Potter, based on the novels of British author J.K. Rowling, is already the highest-grossing film franchise ever, eclipsing the 23 James Bond and six "Star Wars" films, with over $6.4 billion in global ticket sales.

By Olabode Ososami

There are attitudes that are central to get right if we are to succeed in life, business and ministry. These relate primarily to gaining and retaining access to divine resources. The most important of these is an attitude of joy. Our joy first and foremost must be in the Lord and not in the things He makes available. Only a sense...

By Olabode Ososami

Having the right attitudes to money and a stewardship mindset is important for financial success. The Bible contains a lot of wisdom related to this.
