Demystifying The Curse Of Poverty



                  “For  you  are  becoming  progressively  acquainted  with  and
                  recognizing more strongly and clearly the grace of our Lord Jesus
                  Christ (His Kindness, His gracious generosity, His undeserved
                  favour and spiritual blessing, [in] that though He was [so very]
                  rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, in order that by His poverty
                  you might become-enriched (abundantly supplied) 2 Corinthians
                  8:9 [AMPC]


               Most  Christians  struggle  and  remain  aggravated  beyond
               understanding under the yoke of the curse of poverty; buying into
               the inconsistent doctrines full of deception that place salvation and
               holiness on poverty and lack as sense of humility –false doctrine!


               God has no reason to glory in lack and poverty; He is the God who
               makes us abound in every good thing. He owns the silver and the
               gold, “The silver is Mine and the Gold, says the Lord of Hosts” Haggai
               2:8 [AMPC]


               The Nature of a Curse



                   “Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you
                  will eat food from it all the days of your life, it will produce thorns
                  and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field, by the
                  sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the
                  ground…so the Lord banished him from the Garden of Eden to
                  work the ground from which he had been taken” Genesis 3:17-19
                  &23 [NIV]



               English Oxford Dictionary defines “Curse” as a solemn utterance
