COVENANT SECURITY FOR HARD TIMES 

The worst form of deception is self-deception. 

I do not have the mentality of a man that does not want to come out of poverty

FACTORS TO SECURING EXEMPTION IN HARD TIMES 

1. Be conscious of your exemption status in Christ. 

2 Corinthians 8:9 | Genesis 26:12 | Galatians 2:28

Redemption is the sponsor of hardship. 

Your mentality defines your dignity. 

Proverbs 23:7

2. Embrace the love factor 

Mark 12: 30 - 31 

You must love God with your Spirit, Soul, and Body. 

Anything done without love would never produce. 

You cannot pursue God and sink in life. 

1 Corinthians 13:2

True love results in the investment of your time and resources. 

If you need preaching before you give, then you do not have love in your love. 

Love without giving is "original" fake!

You do not struggle to give to whoever you love. 

3. Obey the law of seed time and harvest

Genesis 8:22

It pains God when you doubt him but pleasures him when you trust him. 

You can never come out of hard times except you are a giver. 

To cry and give is not a symbol of true love. 

Malachi 2:13

Stop giving seeds with frowning faces. God loves a cheerful giver!

Your seed is the voice your financial future obeys. 

If you do not like the harvest you are getting, change your seed!

The best time to give is actually when things are hard!

Giving is the provoker of the blessing!

Malachi 3:10 | Proverbs 10:22

Don't ever confess what you have not yet proved!

With the blessing, you prosper anywhere!

4. Understand the place of the prophet when it comes to covenant practice. 

2 Chronicles 20:20 | Hebrews 7:7

The voice you listen to is the voice that would benefit you. 

1 Kings 17:9 - 14

Without a prophet, you cannot make a profit. 

In the kingdom, you cannot make a profit and prosper without a prophet. 

5. Live a life of patience

In the school of seed time and harvest, patience is a core requirement. 

Nothing you give is ever wasted. 

Galatians 6:9

Sacrificial lifestyle may take time but it would surely produce. 

Patience is the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting. 

You determine in hard times how your rain falls not God. 

Good messages do not change people's stories, it is putting the message to work that does.
