Turning to the Book of Psalms in the King James Bible
We
can start with psalm 1 to learn the first rule for Prosperity
"Blessed is the man that walks not in the counsel of the un-godly,
nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful.
But his delight is in the law of the Lord and in His law does
he
meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by
the rivers of
water, that brings forth his fruit in his season, his leaf
also will
not wither, and what so ever he does shall prosper.
The
ungodly are not so; but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in
the congregation of the righteous.
For the Lord knows the way of the
righteous
But the way of the ungodly shall perish."
All of us have watched the ungodly prosper in this world we live in.

They some times seem to increase their riches beyond our understanding.
But we have to remember just as many seem to have the world by the tail;
Misfortune is only a heart beat away . Circumstance can cause their
feet to slip and cast them down into destruction. Every day we read
about the fall of one of these
would be king of the world.
Some of
us who don't have the advantages and opportunity wealth could bring, still
have hope that eventually all this time on earth will pass. Some
of us have found hope that if we try to walk , hand in hand with God
He will guide us through this valley of the shadow of death, and
provide us with guidance when the way grows tough,
and afterwards He
will receive us into a better place.
There are laws that govern
prosperity just as there are laws that govern gravity.
Some people who grow
prosperous may be tapping into these hidden laws of prosperity.
Many very
wealthy people use their surplus do a lot of good works every day of their lives.
Some say that
the first principal is to tithe your income. That is usually considered
a tenth.
That is a place to start, As you prosper you should be able to
give a larger percentage.
It gets easier to tithe the more your income grows.
Also giving away a tenth teaches you to live within your means.
So many of us today are in hock up to our eyebrows as jobs are scarce. money is short.
But even if you don't have
an extra dollar to your name you can look around and you can find something to give. Clean out
your closets and take them to a local church, they will be
glad to find a new
home for them. It's time to clean out your houses and garage, If you can't sell it
then give it away; some body needs that stuff,
Get the old stuff out moving through the universe. Give it a chance
to
multiply before it comes back to you.
If you have more time than money
then you can give
a gift of your time as a volunteer.
Mow the lawn of an elderly neighbor. Give
some old lady a ride to the store.
It does your heart good to help
somebody. It will makes you feel great all day,
and even more important you
will start good things in
motion
on the road back into your life.
Some call that the law of Karma.
