NO MORE STEALING

"Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth." (Ephesians 4:28 KJV) Due to the corruption in the worked, many people in different parts of the world have believed that, until they steal they cannot make it in this life or cannot have more or even just enough. It is so surprising that even many Christians who are supposed to be the light of the world and of course the nations are also found in this kind of a web. But this ought not to be so.

Thus, the Holy Ghost declares that the thief should no more steal, rather he should labour and work with his hands something that is good that he may have to give unto him that has need. Hallelujah! Thus, there is no need to steal but rather labour, by doing something good and nature itself will reward you adequately. God has designed nature in such a way that once you invest in it, it rewards you and this is why the word says that seed time and harvest shall not cease (Genesis 8:22). Seed time implies moment of investment and harvest moments of reaping. And the word of God says that they shall never cease. So make up your mind to labour doing something good with your hands and you will have results and be sustained by the grace of God in Jesus name. Amen!

Prayer/Declaration

Heavenly Father, I thank You for this understanding that You've given me today. I declare that I refuse to steal, but rather I labour, with my hands, doing good things and I therefore always have in superabundance in Jesus name. Amen!
