shame that so many in the body don't know who Mike is. the stuff has talking about here echos what's covered in the book destined for a throne. prior to reading that book I never realized the vital role prayer played not only in our establishing relationship with God but for getting things done in this realm

Mike how did you become an apostle ???

[@albertpetrusmodoh3543]

He did not appoint Himself I guess it's God!

Many things from Mike's teaching are very useful and I appreciate him as a person - what I can see on Yt-videos. But I think that conscious fullgospel teachers, like he is, should better see what is New testament's teaching about material stuff, rich men and wealth and how hard will be for rich man to get into kingdom of God. By the way, a wealt isn't a sign of intimacy with God and isn't result of godliness in most cases that we can see around us. What christian with open eyes can conclud is that wealt is one of 3 the greatest obstickls in serving to God. Through all christian history that 3 thigs had been cause of strugles among christians and we today have conseqences in many way - different interpretation of Jesus's teachig, powerlesnes in spiritual knowledge and practice. Anyway, Mike is great teacher and from him we can learn much.

John said that I pray that you should prosper, be in health just as your soul prospers. Elsewhere in Corinthians it says that He who was rich became poor so that we might become rich. Paul also said that he is not ashamed of the gospel for in it is the power unto salvation. Salvation means to be prosperous in all areas of our lives - mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually, and yes even financially. I am not suggesting that we aim for financial property because it may lessen our dependence on Him having said that it's not money but the love of money that is repulsive to God. Many people worry about their finances - that worrying takes our eyes off of the very being that can deliver us from poverty which is a curse. Christ died to redeem us from the curses and has translated us into the kingdom of His love in Christ Jesus. The term money is mentioned more than Jesus because God knows that when we were separated from Him He said by the sweat of your brow you will make a living. I agree with you that having lots of money may adversely affect our relationship with God but then again it can be used to spread the gospel in meaningful ways. God bless you 🙏
