God desires for His people to be financially prosperous to assist in the expansion of the Kingdom of God.
The second purpose of our financial prosperity is to be a blessing to the people of God. Genesis 12:2 says we are blessed to be a blessing. God should be able to use us to be blessings in the lives of others. Our financial assistance could be the answer to someone’s prayers. But, how can we give something we don’t have? If someone observes a person in need financially, they may desire to help them but, in all actuality they don’t have any money to spare. That’s not God’s best. God desires, through us, to help the poor, help the widows, and the orphans who literally need assistance. Helping others is a part of God’s covenant. According to Deuteronomy 8:18, it takes finances to establish God’s covenant.
For those who don’t desire to be financially prosperous for themselves at least do it for the expansion of God’s Kingdom and to be a blessing in the lives of others.
Genesis 12:2 “I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.
