With financial pressure mounting, individuals, families, and businesses are scrambling to make it another day. The belief system of many is being challenged. The enemy is counting on you to “throw in the towel.”  However, even though your faith is being tested, know that it remains the plan of God for you to be blessed, even during a down economy. “POVERTY IS BROKEN!”

Go ahead, breathe deep, and now exhale. Do it once more. In your heart, reach beneath the rubble and chaos of your own battleground and find your faith again. It’s there, go ahead and reach, your faith is still alive! God respects everyone who reaches for the answer. This time your net could come up full of fish. POVERTY IS BROKEN!

Release hope as a mark of your expectation. Hope defines a desired outcome. Post a mental photo of that desired outcome on the walls of your heart as a reminder of the destiny of faith. Now, bind your faith to the promise of God because what you bind on earth will be bound in heaven! It’s time to hold on, refuse to give up, make another effort an believe “POVERTY IS BROKEN!”
