PrefaceDearProsperousBeliever,There is no question whatsoever that it is God’s perfect will for us to

prosper.Bythetimehewrote3John2,theApostleJohnwascalled“TheElder.”He

hadbecomeawise,matureandrespectedleaderintheChurch.Hisintegritywasunquestioned.His humilitywas unparalleled.Andhis face-to-face relationshipwithJesusontheislandofPatmoswasastounding,tosaytheleast.

Thatiswhythisverseissosignificant.Onelistensverycloselytoamanofgreatexperience,statureandhonorintheBodyofChrist.AskmehowIknow.

“Beloved,Iwishaboveallthingsthatthoumayestprosperandbeinhealth,even as thy soul prospereth.”Notice he said “above all things.”To see othersprosperandbeinhealthwasJohn'soverwhelmingpassion—apassionthatcamefrom the Father. Psalm 35:27 says, “Let the Lord be magnified, which hathpleasure in the prosperity of his servant.”We also read inDeuteronomy8:18,“ButthoushaltremembertheLordthyGod:foritishethatgiveththeepowertogetwealth,thathemayestablishhiscovenantwhichheswareuntothyfathers,asitisthisday.”Philippians4:19inTheAmplifiedBibletellsusthat“myGodwillliberallysupply(filltothefull)youreveryneedaccordingtoHisrichesingloryinChristJesus.”

SeeingpeopleprosperisalsothepassionofKennethCopelandMinistries.IbeganworkingforKCMin1976.Ibecameastudentof thesolidbiblical

principlesoffaiththatthisministryteaches.Iamquitefamiliarwithitsmission,havingtraveledwithKennethandGloriaCopelandandbylisteningtocountlessmessagesoncassettetapesandthenCDs.

Fromtimeto time,BrotherCopelandwouldsharewithcongregationswhatthisministryiscalledtodo.Iwouldwritedownwhathewouldsayandkeepacollection of those “mission statements.”One day, he spoke about his callingwhereprosperitywasconcerned.

Hesaid,“Thisministryiscalledtoteachthelawsthatgovernprosperityandsupernatural increase and abundance.” I could hear the deep sense ofresponsibilityinhisvoice.Ireceivedthatmandateasmyown,bothasabelieverinChristJesusandasthepastorofEagleMountainInternationalChurch.

With that said, you can clearly understand the purpose of this50Days ofProsperitystudyseries.

Page 8: 50 days of prosperity : an in-depth scriptural look at living a prosperous life

ThebeginningofthisseriesbeganwhenGloriaaskedmetoteachtwoweekson the Believer’s Voice of Victory broadcast. At the time, I was teaching aprosperity series in church. Itwas no surprisewhen theLord spoke up inmyspiritandtoldmetoteachatelevisionseriestitled,10DaysofProsperity.

Hewent on to say,Asmuch as I wantMy people healed, I want them toprosperfinanciallyandprovisionally.IwantMypeopletothriveandflourishinthese times. I want them to experience My supernatural provision. Lack andpoverty are under the curse. Tell them that they are redeemed from the curseandthattheyaretowalkinthefullnessofTHEBLESSING.

Mypeoplearenotsubjecttothetimes,nomatterwhatishappeningaroundthem.Totally immerse them in theWordofprosperity.Bydoing this, theWordwillbuildtheirfaithandenlargetheircapacitytobelieveandreceive.Now,getwiththeprogram!Itwasaverystrongword!

TheLord impressedme toprepare theoutlines in advanceandmake themavailabletothetelevisionaudience.Itapedthefirst10programsbymyself.

Several weeks after the broadcasts aired, I received one of the mostsignificantphonecallsofmylife.ItwasGloriaCopelandcalling.“George,”shesaid,“Ihavehadabrilliantidea.IjustwatchedyourbroadcastsandIwantyouandmetodothenextprosperityseries.Thereisonestipulation—Iwantyoutobringyournotes!”

Iheartilyacceptedtheoffer.Thosenoteshavenotbeendifficulttoprepare.Ihave been taught by the very best! The referencematerials are endless. And,whatanamazingtimewehavehad.IhavelearnedsomuchmorebytapingwithGloria. It is obvious that themessageof prosperity is deepwithinher spirit. ImustsaythatteachingwithGloriahasbeenoneofthegreatesthighlightsofmylife.Whatanhonor!

IhappenedtomentionsomethingtoGloriawhile tapingourfirstbroadcasttogether. “Gloria, you just can't exhaust the subject of prosperity,” I said. Shequicklyansweredandsaid,“Let’stry!!”

Fiftybroadcastslater,wedecidedtoassemblethisstudyseries.Iencourageyoutoimmerseyourselfinyourown“50DaysofProsperity”—

or takewhatever timenecessary to thoroughlystudyeachoutline.Perhapsyoucould study one outline each week. Imagine, “50Weeks of Prosperity”! Youcould conduct your own Bible study with friends and family. Pastors andministers are already using them to preach. Others are referring to themwhenevertheyreceiveofferings.Thepossibilitiesareendless!

AllofusatKennethCopelandMinistrieswantyoutoprosper.But,asweallknow,a transformationof themindtakestotal immersionintheWord.So,getoutyourBiblesandnotes,and“getwiththeprogram!”Theresultsofthisseries

dropped.a. The practice of tithing—donating at least 10% of one’s income to

churches or other charities—has been relatively stable over the past decade,hoveringbetween5%and7%.

b. Currently, the national tithing rate is down to 4% of the adultpopulation.”
