In my study of the benefits of living in God's economy. It was revealed, that Jesus was and is and is to come the very embodiment of the benefit of living in God's economy. He came to show us the way to receive and live in a way that would bring glory and honor to God the Father. Jesus is the representation of heavens benefits!When we accept Jesus as your Lord and personal Savior, we enter into God's economy; where He becomes responsible to care for us. But if you choose to live outside of the economy of God's kingdom; He has no obligation to give you what Jesus calls, "the children's bread." But because of God's love for humanity, He extends His mercy to all mankind. He rains on the just and unjust alike. For those who make a decision to answer God's call; we are then set apart to enjoy the full benefits of living in God's economy! It's like when you get a job, you have a job description explaining to you how the company expects you to perform your duties. You are given an employee handbook that outlines specific fringe benefits that you are entitled to. Now, an outsider cannot expect to receive any benefits from that company because they are not an employee. But, now that you have been hired to represent the company, they are responsible to pay you for your services as long as you are employed by them. Some of those benefits may include: health benefits, 401K, stock options, paid vacation and so forth. However, in order to receive these benefits, you are responsible to follow all of the guidelines set forth in the employee handbook. Some companies host an annual benefit gala for under privileged students who excel in their school academics. The company provides scholarships to assist them in higher education. You see, the students do not work for the company, but because the CEO of that company decided to share a portion of the company's profits with these students, they have been extended grace and mercy.When man who does not accept the economy of God {Jesus) they think and believe with all of their heart that they are self-made, that everything they have accomplished is through some power of their own and that God had absolutely nothing to do with it. They fail to realize that it is God who gives man the power to get wealth and not we ourselves.God's economy establishes what He wants done on the earth. When we come into agreement with God's plan for our lives, then we become benefactors of His wealth, resources, and provisions!On the other hand, when man tries to live without God, they take the credit for the wisdom, gifts, and talents that He gave them. God's plan is for man to duplicate His purposes on earth. In man's economy, he strives to become wealthy by spending all of his energy in the pursuit of what we would consider wealth to be. Very often, while man is in pursuit of becoming financially successful, he has become bankrupt in his relationship with God, his family, his friends, his mind, and his emotions.In other words, man becomes unstable in every area of his life. He may have all the appearances of wealth, success, and happiness but he has become bankrupt . Revelations 3:17 reads "You said I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing. But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked." When we are outside of the ark of God's safety we are left to the enemy devices; who has come to kill your dreams, steal your joy and peace, causing you to strive in your own strength trying to obtain the American dream. But at the end of the day, you will discover that it is really a nightmare! All because we thought that we knew better than the God who created us! Satan, our enemy has come to destroy us through an illusion, a false perception. He wants us to believe that we are our own creator without any divine intervention!
