There are many in the body of Christ today that need financial healing.  There are many who are not just in need of a breakthrough in the area of finances, but need an actual “healing”.  A breakthrough would be great, yet it will not fix the root of the problem.  The axe must be laid to the root of this problem and cut off it off at the source.  The only way to do this is by and through the Word of God.  Through Jesus.  There is no other way buy by Him and His Word.  He is the Word.  Lack and poverty are not of God, they are plainly of the devil.  You could send billions of dollars to India, and yet that would not fix their starvation problem and poverty issues.  Money is not the answer to lack and poverty.  Money is like a band aide.  It will temporarily bring relief to your circumstance or situation, yet that circumstance and situation will arise again, and again, and again, until it is dealt with at the root. 

Matthew 3:10 “And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees.  Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” 

The ax is the Word of God.  As you speak the Word of God to the root of the problems and/or circumstances in your life, those patterns whether financial or not will cease.  In some cases there does need to be repentance from another root.  That is the root of the “love of money”.    

1st Timothy 6:10 “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” 

Have you had many sorrows in your life?  Is there something in your life that you just keep banging your head against the wall over and over and not received any results?  Examine yourself, and see if there needs to be repentance in your life for the love of money.  It’s not wrong or sin to have money, or materialistic things, but it is wrong to make those things your god and serve them.  You cannot serve both god and mammon.  We do not trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God who gives us RICHLY all things to enjoy.  (1st Timothy 6:17)  God gives us all things to enjoy!  All things are put on this earth for us to enjoy, but not to serve.  All things are put on this earth to SERVE US.  As those things serve us, we use them to worship God with.  God created us from the beginning to have dominion over all things, for all things to serve us.  And when Jesus came and paid the price on the cross for us once again to have dominion over ALL things.  Make no mistake, we as Believers are called to be rich.  Very rich.  Rich according to His RICHES IN GLORY.  God’s riches in glory is un-countable for eternity.  

HELD UP OR TIED UP FUNDS & GENERAL NEEDS 

There are many Believers out there that have tied up funds, or funds that have been held up.  Settlements that need to be resolved and released, court cases that need to pass through the system, that just need to be “loosed” as well as general needs that just haven’t manifested yet, but there is a great need in your life or ministry for these to be loosed.  Let’s look at this biblically and prophetically at what you can do here to see God results in this area. 

Matthew 21:2-3  “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied and a colt with her.  Loose them and bring them to Me.  And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, “The Lord has need of them and immediately he will send them.” 

The provision, the donkey and the colt have been tied up in many peoples lives, un-reachable and un-attainable, yet they have been “needs” in your life.  You need those resources for your ministry, or your family or household, you need those finances to establish God’s covenant, you need that food on your table to feed your family, you need that gas in your car to get to the house of God and worship, you need that job to provide for your family, you need that vehicle to get to that job, you need that equipment to run your business God has given you, you need millions to run that global ministry that will impact nations for the gospel.  YOU NEED THE STUFF!  And we know its more than ok to have stuff as God has given us the stuff to enjoy all things. 

1st Timothy  6:17 “…not to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God who gives us richly all things to enjoy.” 

In the verse above in Matthew 21:2-2 it says, “The Lord has need of them…”   Here is a key.  Christ lives in you.  He lives in every Believer, and with that salvation package comes our authority, seated in heavenly places.  Read carefully now, every time you have a “need” in your life, in your family, in your ministry, in your business, then the LORD has need of that “thing”.  If you abide in Him and He abides in you, and you and Him are one, and you have a need, then the Lord has need of that very same thing!  The Lord has need of that donkey and colt tied up.  The Lord has need of those held up funds, and tied up resources to be loosed and released for the Kingdom of God.  And let me tell you what, if the Lord has need of something who is ANYONE to withhold that thing from the Lord????  So what do we do here?  We speak to that thing that you need, that the Lord needs and you command that thing, WITH YOUR AUTHORITY, and with your words, that are Christ words in your mouth, and you command that thing to be loosed!   

Romans 8:10 “But what does it say?  The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart.” 

So you speak that word to that thing to be loose and to come to you, and if anyone asks you what you are doing, you tell them, “the Lord has need of this thing”.  For every force in hell will oppose you on this, and put lying thoughts in your mind, telling you that you “can’t have that” or “what do you think you are doing?” and you tell those devils, “the Lord has need of these things, and who are you to keep anything from the Lord!”.  Your circumstances will tell you from every direction that what you need immediately is impossible to received, and you tell those circumstances that, “the Lord has need of these” and to line themselves up to the Word, and it says in vs 3 “and immediately he will send them.”  So once you get your mouth lined up with the word, mixed with faith and your authority you will see immediate results.  You may need to speak to that thing, and speak to that thing until YOU believe what you are saying.  Unbelief will not get the results you need or get the job done.  So for some people it may take some time to develop that confession, to the point where you actually believe what you are saying, and using your authority with the words you speak, but speak!  Be loosed!  Funds come here!  Hallelujah! 

FINANCIAL HEALING-PROPHETIC WORD 

Matthew 8:6  “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented.” 

For there are many of God’s people whose finances need to be healed.  The money, the resources are the “servant”  They are to serve My people, and yet these servants of money, resources and provision have been terribly paralyzed and tormented.  Your funds, and resources have been unable to “move”.  They have been paralyzed by the enemy.  Your finances have been severely tormented and under attack by the enemy, as you are the very people I have called to be RICH, rich above all you could ever exceedingly think or imagine, rich according to My riches and glory.  You are the people I am empowering to get wealth to establish My covenant on this earth in this final hour.  You are the people who have given your lives to Me, no matter what the cost, you said, “I will follow”, and you have left homes, land and people for the Word sake and you have been obedient to go where I have told you to go, and I tell you this day you shall reap 100 fold, many of you this year of 2004.  For there is an open door of abundance to you.   

Matthew 8:8  “Lord I am not worthy that You should come under my roof.  But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.” 

My children, your servant of finances and resources will be healed as YOU speak the word I have put in your mouth and in your heart.  I have given you all authority and power.  Speak My word over your bank books, your bank accounts, your wallets, your homes, your vehicles, your resources, your business’, your ministries, and I will heal them.    For no more will the enemy cause your finances to be paralyzed.  For I speak that they will move with great power, your servants will do the work, they will build, they will build My house, they will build communications that reach the globe over and over, they will build shelters and warehouses for resources, they will build supply centers for My people, these servants will build houses for My people, and these servants will cause My Word to be distributed throughout the earth with demonstrations of My power.  For everything on this earth is to be your servant, for whatever you have need of, I have need of.  I have not put any limits on you My children.  There isn’t anything you cannot do in Me, nor accomplish.  My hands are outstretched towards you, full of gifts, full of anything you need for that vision to come to pass.   

The most valuable thing I have given you on this earth is My authority.  In this authority is everything that you need in abundance.  Go in this authority, speak in this authority, move in this authority, and watch and see your destiny in this area of great resources and finances bow to My name. 

Ephesians 3:20  “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works IN us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever.  Amen.”
