TURNING ON THE SHOWERS OF BLESSING (2)

Text: III John 2

INTRODUCTION:

In the last part of this series, we learnt that true and enduring

prosperity is from the Almighty God and that only the true children

of God are entitled to God's blessing, as the wicked also do

prosper in their own ways.

Today, as we continue in our series, may the Lord teach us

Himself and shower His blessings upon us in Jesus name.

1. SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS IS ALL ROUND PROSPERITY

Man is made up of three components namely the body, souls and

spirit. Showers of blessing must therefore include physical, soulish

and spiritual blessing i.e. all round prosperity.

3 Jn. 2, I Thess. 5:23, Jer. 29:11, I Cor. 12:26, 2 Kgs. 5:1, I Chro.

4:9, Mk. 5:28, 34, Gen. 29:31, 30:1, Ph. 4:18-19.

2. ALL ROUND PROSPERITY BEGINS FROM THE SOUL

The prosperity of the soul is the foundation of all other forms of

prosperity i.e. bodily, material and spiritual.

The soul is the non-material part of a human body believed to exist for

ever and it is the life principle of man.

Gen. 2:8-9, Ez. 18:4, Gen. 11:6, Hos. 4:6, Lk. 15:11-12, Prov.
