Prologue
It is an honor to be sharing with you, through the dynamic power of the printed word, our Theological thoughts on How to Create a Spiritual Cash Machine.
Money and Power have been among the most sought after commodities of the world. However, few books or commentaries have been written to address these burning topics from a Christian Theological perspective.
Given that fact, and the current state of financial affairs in our world, we believe the mission of this book is both timely and appropriate. Thus, this publication begins with a fundamental truth, spoken by Jesus:
"It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom." (Luke 12:32)
The Father wants to give you the Kingdom! This is the main mission of His Son: to reconnect us with God, the giver of all good things. He came to help us recover our lost blessings.
We believe that manifesting God’s Financial Blessings is not a human privilege but rather our Spiritual birthright.
"Consider the Lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." (Luke 12:27)
The Lilies of the field are not gloriously clothed because they work hard at it. They simply do what they were created to do. The rest is up to God.
The lilies of the field do not shy away from the sun due to feelings of unworthiness, or refuse to soak up water and nutrients from the soil due to a mistaken belief that having abundance means someone else will have to go without.
Yet many Christians fall into this trap. Our mission is to help you find your way back into the flow of abundance God wants to give you.
And God’s resources (blessings) are infinite! It is our belief that nobody who steps into the flow of God’s goodness has to go without.
Thus, we must conclude that manifesting God’s Financial Blessings is not a human privilege but rather our inalienable Spiritual birthright.
As has been your author’s tradition, this volume is presented using a modern approach, that is to say, a question
