Exponential |“You Hear His Voice” Sermon

Proverbs 10:22, 19:17

“The blessing of the Lord—it makes [truly] rich, and He adds no sorrow with it [neither does toiling increase it]”. — “Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward them for what they have done.”

Father we declare we are blessed. We agree with Your word over us that, “This is a season of exponential blessing.”

Father, in the name of Jesus, I speak your word over my finances this day. I have worshipped you with my tithes and offerings, now I claim the Windows of Heaven blessing for my life.

I now receive doors of opportunity opening for me and my family. I have given, therefore I shall never lack.

Those who the spirit of God speaks to are free to obey and give to me good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over.

I believe my every need is met with heaven’s best! I thank you Father my need was supplied according to your riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Father, your word says my giving increases the fruits of my righteousness. Therefore, I thank you for an abundance of love, joy, peace, temperance, goodness in my life … In Jesus Name! AMEN!!
