Wealth 29th October 2018
“In the
year of Jubilee everyone is to return to their own property” Leviticus 25:13
We thank
You for every purpose and plan You have for the future of the United Kingdom
and we praise You that Your plans are for good and not for evil. We declare
Your thoughts are not our thoughts or Your ways our ways. In this season when
You are shifting nations, we stand as Your Ecclesia and continue to declare,
this land will be shaped, positioned and networked in every way according to
Your best and highest purpose, that this nation and the nations will be
blessed, and we surrender to Your ways.
We thank
You for the fullness of the wisdom contained in Your word. Even as we declare
the ability to create wealth will rest upon our nation, we speak a spirit of generosity
over the land, creating a right distribution of wealth, and a prosperous,
enterprising and inclusive society.
We decree
and declare as a new generation of businessmen, entrepreneurs, and property
owners arise, accumulation for personal gain will be replaced by Kingdom
attitudes and Kingdom goals. We decree and declare they will give and not take,
share and not withhold, release and not hoard, directed and led by the power of
Your Spirit. In the Name of Jesus, we speak Your blessing to all those You have
called into the marketplace at this time, that strategies, opportunities and
finances will flow freely and righteously to them and through them.
Now, we
speak righteousness and honesty into every aspect of financial dealings within
our land. Even as policies and budgets are put in place, we decree and declare
the finances of this nation will be stewarded with wisdom and
sensitivity, that taxes will be appropriate, needs will be met and
infrastructure funded. We speak peace to the markets, in Jesus Name. Amen

Nations will not go to war against one
another. They won’t even train to fight anymore. Everyone will have their own
vine and fig tree. And no one will make them afraid. Micah 4:3-4 (NIRV))
PEACE AND LAND
In
this vision of peace, tools of war are turned into the means to produce food.
The hope is for settled communities where all may feed themselves and flourish.
One of the first casualties of war can be the land itself as fields become battle
grounds and the rhythm of agriculture is interrupted. Communities move to avoid
conflict and food becomes scarce. We see that today as refuges flee worn torn
countries. A vision like Micah’s where communities are settled and can provide
for themselves, is one we should all strive for. These words of Jesus, ‘I
was hungry. And you gave me something to eat … I was a stranger. And you
invited me in’ (Matthew
25:35) can challenge us
afresh as we look at the world today.
PRAYER
Loving
God, we pray for those who are uprooted by war and who seek refuge in another
country, or a place that is strange to them. When they feel rootless and alien
help them to find refuge in you. May we all value and care for our communities.
In Jesus’ name. Amen
