of defeat.
“The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came
that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to
the full, till it overflows]” John 10:10 [AMP]
The numerous truths on this subject as spelt out in the Word of
God will not only open the understanding to the reader; but will
also break every form of ignorance that leads to captivity of many
Christians who should otherwise be elevated to immenseblessings
and prosperity as intended by God.
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge;” Hosea 4:6a
[AMPC]
It is worth noting at this point that the fall of man as recounted in
Genesis is what gave rise to the curse of poverty. Man was placed
in the Garden of Eden to enjoy the abundant provision of God.
The devil out of malice lured man to fall from the graces of God
causing him to be driven“out”of the blessings and God’s initial plan-
prosperity!
