Billy Burke | – Word of the Week: 3 John 2

“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” (3 John 2 KJV)

No matter what anyone thinks, says or feels about you, your God wants YOU to prosper!

All through our lives we have enemies, rivals, jealous relatives, people that compete with us at work, at school, at home. A lot of times people don’t want to see you get ahead. It can get inside of your spirit, it can affect and jade the way you think, and you can begin to think, “Maybe I’m not supposed to… Maybe that is for everybody else… Maybe I did something back in my past…”

Let me tell you something – it’s not about how good you are, it’s about how big God is!

This verse clearly says God wants you to prosper above everything. He wants you to “prosper and be in health, even as your soul…” Your soul prospering is a renewed mind. Your mind is now being conformed to the words of God, instead of your own background. He wants YOU to prosper!

Your God wants you to be successful! Your God wants you to get through and achieve the fullest of your potential!

In spite of what anybody else says, thinks or feels about you – your God says He is for you, He’s not against you, and if you follow Him, He will put a path in front of you that will enable you to have every opportunity to be who He created you to be!

Your word for this week – Above everything, and everybody, your God wants YOU to prosper!
