The Word & The SupernaturalJoin Forces to Bring Victory

Luke 4:16-21 Amplified

“So He came to Nazareth, [that Nazareth] where He had been brought up, and He

entered the synagogue, as was His custom on the Sabbath day. And He stood up to read. And there was handed to Him [the

roll of] the book of the prophet Isaiah. He opened (unrolled) the book and found the place where it was written, ‘The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon Me, because He has

anointed Me [the Anointed One,

the Messiah] to preach the good news (the Gospel) to the poor; He has sent Me to announce release to the captives and

recovery of sight to the blind, to send forth as delivered those who are oppressed

[who are downtrodden, bruised, crushed, and broken down by calamity], to proclaim

the accepted and acceptable year of the Lord [the day when salvation and the free

favors of God profusely abound.]’

Then He rolled up the book and gave it back to the attendant and sat down; and

the eyes of all in the synagogue were gazing [attentively] at Him. And He began to speak to them: Today this Scripture has

been fulfilled while you are present and hearing.”

Psalm 25:12-14

“Who, then, is the man that fears the Lord? He will instruct him in the way chosen for him. He will spend his days in prosperity, and his descendants will inherit the land.

The Lord confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them.”

Psalm 72:7

“In his days the righteous will flourish; prosperity will abound till the moon is no

more.”

Psalm 128:2-4

“You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.

Your wife will be a fruitful vine within your house; your sons will be like olive shoots around your table. Thus is the man who

fears the Lord.”

Psalm 35:27 Amplified

“Let those who favor my righteous cause and have pleasure in my uprightness

shout for joy and be glad and say continually, Let the Lord be magnified,

Who takes pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.”

Is prosperity only riches in money and possessions?

Are you prosperous if:

• You have a million dollars, but you’re dying of cancer?

• You have a big house and you’re hooked on lust that you can’t control?

• You have a lot of money but you’re so mean no one wants to be around you?
