- 0:00What discussing Jehovah Jireh, but I want to teach you
- 0:02something about poverty. Poverty is tripartite in its
- 0:08operation and if you do not deal with it from this tripartite
- 0:13dimension, you will never truly prosper in the Kingdom.
- 0:17Please follow carefully. You will find out that the
- 0:20reason why many church people learn about finances and still
- 0:25remain incapacitated is because they do not know that poverty is
- 0:29tripartite. Now write this down.
- 0:32Poverty is first a spirit, then a mindset, then poverty is a
- 0:41product of actions and activities that lead to it.
- 0:45If you change the action and the mindset is there, you will still
- 0:49be poor. If you change the mindset and
- 0:53the spirits are there, you will still be poor.
- 0:55Until you deal with the spirit of poverty.
- 0:59Change your mind, take away the mindset of poverty, and then
- 1:03engage in the actions and activities that bring wealth.
- 1:07You will never go out of poverty.
- 1:11So let's discuss them quickly. Someone learning the spirit of
- 1:14poverty. Let me tell you, ladies and
- 1:16gentlemen, there is a real spirit, a sign to make and to
- 1:21keep men poor. Believe that there is a spirit.
- 1:25Spirits have assignments like angels, like the Holy Spirit.
- 1:28They are not all doing the same thing.
- 1:30There are spirits assigned to attend and to threaten the
- 1:35economic empowerment of the Saints.
- 1:38Let me tell you how this spirit works.
- 1:40Listen, it works by creating occurrences that hinder
- 1:45abundance or deplete any available finances.
- 1:50This is how the spirit of poverty works.
- 1:52It works by creating occurrences that hinder abundance,
- 1:58occurrences that deplete any available finance.
- 2:03For instance, mysterious sicknesses, you will think it is
- 2:09just a spirit of infirmity. Many times is the spirit of
- 2:13poverty in operation mysterious sicknesses.
- 2:18Let me give you an example. Go to Luke chapter 8 and verse
- 2:2143. The Bible talks about a woman
- 2:24with the issue of blood. Here what the Bible says about
- 2:27that woman. Read with me please everybody.
- 2:29Are you ready? One to go and a woman, uh huh,
- 2:3512 years, which had spent all her living.
- 2:40She was not a lazy woman. She was not a lazy woman.
- 2:45Maybe she had a job, maybe she worked for someone.
- 2:49But because she did not know that poverty is tripartite, that
- 2:53spirit plagued her. And she spent all her living on
- 2:58physicians. Neither could be healed of any.
- 3:02There are many people who are victims of the spirit of
- 3:04poverty. They only gather to give to
- 3:07sickness. They only gather to give to
- 3:10mysterious things. God blesses you.
- 3:12You receive some money, then your child is sick, then your
- 3:16husband is sick. And they say you know what you
- 3:18need to go for, for that test. And that test is 1.52 million.
- 3:23And when you see that your loved one is dying, you will spend any
- 3:26amount. I believe that was the spirit
- 3:31that killed the prophet, whose wife became a slave and they
- 3:36were about to take the sons. The man died of sickness.
- 3:40He was a prophet, but he died of sickness.
- 3:43I'm sure that the sickness degenerated their finances until
- 3:47it was finished and then the man died.
- 3:49Now the woman was left in death. Do you know how many families
- 3:53borrow money to pay for mysterious sicknesses?
- 3:57Because some of them leave their jobs.
- 4:00They relocate from one location to the other.
- 4:02They have to stay with the sick person.
- 4:04I tell you, it's not a sickness issue.
- 4:06It's the spirit of poverty. You notice the person never dies
- 4:11till your finances dry. After borrowing the money
- 4:17because of desperation. You need say some money for
- 4:20chemo. You borrow 5,000,010 million,
- 4:24just bring it, Just bring it. You keep saying just bring it
- 4:27and then eventually the person dies and the people sympathize
- 4:30with you, but you are left with problems that even 10 years
- 4:34salary cannot bring. I pray for someone in the name
- 4:37of Jesus. Every spirit of poverty that has
- 4:41crept into your life, your business, your family, eating
- 4:45your resources, like a cankerworm, like a Palmer worm,
- 4:49like a Caterpillar, I decree in the name of Jesus, you are free
- 4:53from me forever. Hallelujah.
