Assurance of Wealth In Christ

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. 2 Corinthians 8:9

Some people might have thought that being wealthy is against the Scripture or against God’s plan. Even if the Bible tells us that the love of money is the root of evil, the Bible never ascribe money as the root of evil but the love of money. In  Matthew 19:24 “And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.” Christ explained it clearly; a rich man might be vulnerable to selfish ambitions and His focus might be shifted from the Kingdom if He is not careful, Christ never forbade us to be wealthy, after all He is wealthy but because of His love He became poor for us to enjoy eternal wealth and blessings. So many believers have confused Christ explanation on wealth, and they have had a negative mindset towards the Biblical view of wealth while some are afraid to be rich thinking that they might not make it to  heaven. Abraham whom God regards to the father of faith was extremely wealthy and also  King Solomon, job and many more ; same God we serve made them rich. And if we studied our Scripture well we will see an evidence that Abraham whom was extremely wealthy made it to Heaven; Luke 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

Conclusion

Christ has redeemed us from poverty to be wealthy and His will is for all believers to be wealthy. If you had thought that wealth is against God’s plan or being rich you wouldn’t make it to Heaven; you are absolutely wrong. Change your mindset today.
