Money Moves by the Spirit – Provoking Financial Breakthrough

Screen Shot 2014-08-13 at 5.32.36 PMI responded to an e-mail from a supporter of our ministry. They shared regarding financial pressures in their lives and asked for prayer. I immediately prayed for them and felt led to tell them how God has moved in our lives in this area. Without breaking their confidentiality, I want to give you the same instructions that will, without fail, bring the increase of God to your life.

Before you read this – keep this in mind: I never share things that don’t come from our personal experience. I know what financial struggle is. I have faced poverty and even homelessness. In the midst of our greatest battle, God told me, “Money Moves by the Spirit.” I had a vision of driving into a wind tunnel of money flowing toward us in a torrent of supply. This was anything but descriptive of our lives at the time. We began to pray into that vision, and let me tell you, it wasn’t easy to begin to handle our finances according to the dictates of the Spirit of God and not the tyranny of expenses, past due bills, and phone calls from creditors. But we DID obey, and the deliverance God has wrought for us in this area has been remarkable. It is also reproducible. If you do with your finances what I did with our finances, you will see the same result because GOD is NO respecter of persons.

With that introduction, I want to share with you the content of my e-mail with our friend:

Dear ____________,

Let me tell you that we are praying for your finances … when our financial release came, it was after God told us MONEY moves BY THE SPIRIT… for us, that involved two things:


1. Liquidate your surplus and give to the poor. “He that gives to the poor” makes a loan to the Lord. You may not have a surplus of money, but you have a surplus of something (storage, personal property, things not necessary to everyday life… packrat items). You take that and give it to the poor or turn it into cash and give to the poor.

[Pro 28:27 KJV] 27 He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.

[Pro 19:17 KJV] 17 He that hath pity upon the poor length unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.

 

2. Give out of your deep need. This doesn’t go to the poor. This you give toward your future – supporting the vision of a person or people whose life circumstances would be an upgrade to your own if you were in their position. Giving out of your need is giving that gift that makes you lie awake at night thinking, “I sure hope that was God because if not, I’m in trouble…”

An example of this is found in Luke:

[Luk 21:1-4 KJV] 1 And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury. 2 And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites. 3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all: 4 For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.

Notice that she gave into the treasury that JESUS WAS LOOKING INTO, waiting on HER GIFT. No one can tell you where that treasury is – but once given, it brings you into the place where the plowman overtakes the reaper. (Amos 9:13).

One more thing. You don’t want to hesitate, particularly in giving to the poor. What you make happen for someone else, God will make the same to happen for you. Remember, money moves by the Spirit. When you do for others what they can’t do for themselves God will do for you what you can’t do for yourself. Your RESPONSE TIME TO GOD is a measurement of His response time to you …

These are the principles that have transformed our lives in the area of finances. God is no respecter of persons – this will work for you … and we are praying for you!

 

No one can tell you WHERE to give that will bring the blessing of God – YOU HAVE TO GET IT FROM GOD where your sacrificial gift is to go. Sure, I will include a link to give as always (the workman is worthy of his hire, as Jesus said), but that isn’t the point.  The point is HEARING GOD and doing what He said no matter what, perhaps to your elderly or to the poor (giving first to the poor SANCTIONS God’s blessing on what you give to the anointing). God may speak to you to give to your church over and above what you normally do. He may tell you to pay your struggling neighbor’s mortgage. He may, in fact, tell you to give to a ministry that has blessed and encouraged you – I know if you act on this information, it will bring you to a new place financially in your life!
