Luke: 16:9: (KJV) And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.
Luke: 16:9: (ASV) And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends by means of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when it shall fail, they may receive you into the eternal tabernacles.
Have God blessed you with an income that can bless others? Are you using your money to do good works? On the other hand maybe you are on the other side; you need someone to help you with your debts. Maybe you are in need for someone to bless you in your situation or help you with the opportunity to become successful? However, God said that there are people in the world whom are rich that treats the poor better than the people in the Kingdom of God, verse 8. Jesus Christ is talking about being a good steward in the context of helping those who are poor or who have more month than they have money. Which side is you on, are you on the side where you are able to give to those who are in need and it does not take a lot but only what you have to give? Or are you on the side where you are the one in need? The Lord is speaking to both sides in this text that if you have to give there are needs to fill so that when your life is over you will be received into eternal glory where the people you have helped are going. Why, Jesus is talking about helping believers because they are entering eternal tabernacles or everlasting habitations. Moreover, if they go before you they will welcome you there, into the eternal Kingdom! If you are on the other side, I declare and decree that the Lord will send someone to befriend you with their riches to bring you into success, prosperity and having your needs fulfilled to the point of your worldly debts being paid in full. The Word of God declared in 1Timothy:6:17-19, for the rich to do good by being rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate being a sharer in fellowship. I declare and decree unity among the rich and the poor to come together to build the Kingdom of God under the power of Gods mighty Hand to turn this world upside down with the gospel of Jesus Christ! I declare and decree that the Church of Jesus Christ will be as one both rich and poor and the spirit of poverty be destroyed in Jesus Name. Today if you are in need I declare and decree God will send someone in your life to help you and if you are rich you will go out and seek someone you can help in Jesus Name…
