P. 50
Satan has attempted to change the focus of
culture from God’s narrative of plenty to self-
preservation and scarcity. Check it out! Genesis 3:5,
“For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof,
then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as
gods, knowing good and evil.” And Satan uses this
same tactic today, convincing everyone that God
only has a limited amount of resources available.
Have you heard of the name Jdimytai Damour? He
was the security guard that trampled to death on
Black Friday. A perfect example of scarcity in action
is seeing people fight over tissue paper during the
COVID-19 virus outbreak.
The economic concepts of the Kingdom of God
eliminate the economy of this world as our source
of life and place it in The Kingdom of Heaven.
When Jesus says, “God knows you need these
things,” (Mat 6:8 and 6:32) He encourages us to look
to Him as our source and not to look to ourselves as
our source.
Just think about it; why do we work? Usually, it is
because we want to buy the things we need to
