Many of the believers in the USA today are out of work, losing their homes, and going without. Not all but many. Forget all this name it and claim it garbage which is just coming from factions of the false church. Let me show you the problem from a scriptural perspective.

Psalm 1

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Ok blessed is who in verse 1. The man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly. He standeth not in the way of the sinners. He does not sit in the seat of the scornful. So if a person does the opposite of what this scripture says it is logical to assume the opposite comes true. When you go to these false churches with doctrines and practices in opposition to the word of God then you are walking in the counsel of the ungodly. You are not only standing in the way of sinners but you are taking them on as your spiritual leader, far worse. These false church leaders are the scornful and they are your leaders if you go to the false church. So you are not going to be blessed when you do such things. What to do about it.

Go to verse 2. Study the word, delight in it, meditate on it and act according to the word.

James 2:20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

You can't just read the word and not order your life around the word. Here is a big part of the solution.

2 Corinthians 6:16-18

16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.

18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Those that run the false churches are serving false gods, demons and satan. Come out from among them. Now this is a big start. You also have to root out all the sin in your life as well. Many are not aware of the sin of the false churches and incorrect fellowship. They need to be. This is every bit of a sin as is stealing, murder, drunkenness etc. Many believers have eliminated many of the other sins from their lives and have to get out from the false churches and incorrect fellowship to be free of sin. The false churches do not teach that being part of them is a sin.

Gal.5:9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

Paul gave us a shopping list of sins that would keep one from the Kingdom of God.

Gal.5: 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Now get a strongs and look up variance, seditions, heresies. Wait let me do it for you.

Variance, strongs 2054. a quarrel, i.e. (by implication) wrangling:--contention, debate, strife, variance. This perfectly describes denominations. A non-denominational church with a pastor ordained by a denomination has the same evil ties. A church with a doctrinal statement other than the new testament and old testament is also guilty of this. There is no such thing as a doctrinal statement, we have the bible.

Seditions – strongs 1370 dichostsis dee-khos-tas-ee'-ah from a derivative of 1364 and 4714; disunion, i.e. (figuratively) dissension:--division, sedition. see GREEK for 1364 see GREEK for 4714. Here again a perfect description of the false churches.

Heresies - strongs 139 hairesis hah'-ee-res-is from 138; properly, a choice, i.e. (specially) a party or (abstractly) disunion:--heresy (which is the Greek word itself), sect.

see GREEK for 138. Disunion.

So get out from among them and do not fellowship with those operating against the words saying they are Christians. When you drop out of the false church they will try to send some to stay in fellowship with you. Admonish them once, then twice and then avoid them 100%.

When you concern yourself with prosperity remember the sharing commandments.

Gal.5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

What you have been doing when tithing or giving to the false church is becoming a partaker in their evil deeds. Maybe you were not aware of this because you were not studying the word as you should have been or were not believing it or whatever. You were still a partaker in their evil deeds.

I Timothy 5:22: Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.

II John 1:11: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

So now you can see why you were having trouble. Financial trouble, family trouble, health trouble all sorts of trouble as well as a lousy corrupt government to rule over you with an iron hand tapering you, taking your money, your homes, etc. You are going to have to pay a price to get right with God. Coming out from among them will affect friends, social life, and even family. What choice do you have?

There is no correct doctrine calling for the believers to be poor, unable to pay for their homes, food, gas etc. You should have work and be able to carry yourself and your family plus have leftover for the poor. You are all in this together and the sooner we all get with the program the better for all. The only way to go is God's way, period. Now read this:

2Cor.9: 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:

9 (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever.

10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;)

11 Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.

12 For the administration of this service not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God;

13 Whiles by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection unto the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution unto them, and unto all men;

14 And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding grace of God in you.

15 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

Note sufficiency in all things and giving to others.

From experience what will happen when you get the sin out of your life and come out from among them can be summed up in this scripture and I am not kidding. You can walk in this just follow the word.

Psalm 23

1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Let's go through this to illuminate it. If the Lord is your shepherd he leads and you follow. How does he lead. Different ways but the fundamental way is the word. Here is the verse for this.

Ps. 119: 105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

The word illuminates the path we are to walk on. The correct way is straight and narrow.

Math.7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Note that this passage mentions false prophets and that they come to you in sheeps clothing.

Ok back to Psalm 1. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures and leadeth me beside still waters. You are the sheep and he is the shepherd. The green pastures is food and the still water is for life sustaining water.

He restoreth my soul. Well this happened when you got saved and will happen when you ask him to forgive you of your sins and repent. He leadeth me in path of righteousness for this names sake. Ok get with the word. When you walk through the dangerous times or places you will not fear. You can care less about death. When you really and truly do not care about dying then you are ready to be used in a big way by the Lord. Some of you will understand this and some will not. It is not a academic concept, it is experiential. The first time it happened I was sure I was going to die, it was a spiritual fight. Well lo and behold that was when the Lord really showed me his power and strength in a special way. There are no real words for this. When you are ready to lay your life down then you are ready to be used in a big way.

Ok his rod and staff comfort you. The correction is for your own good and you welcome it. Our God is not a cruel harsh God, the opposite. He is merciful and loving.

Thous preparest a table in the presence of my enemies. This is when those that despise you because you are serving God correctly, see you enjoy the blessings of God right there in front of them and they can do nothing about it. Remember you have to give place to the devil, no sin no place. Resist the devil and he will flee. The table set for you before your enemies will happen if you come out from among them and follow the word. Your cup runneth over. You will have abundance, enough to give to others.

So that is the study on prosperity. Come out from among them and get the sin out of your life including incorrect fellowship.

2Thes.3: 6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.

2John: 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:

11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Rom.16:17 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
