[dropcap]Y[/dropcap]es, why not? Our God is a prosperous God. He is the true and rightful owner of our Heaven and Earth. (Exodus 19:5 and psalm 50:10-11). He clearly states that all the animals, hills, forest and birds are His.
God had promised that who follows His words will never become poor. He had also assured us that all the gold and silver are His but we become doubter than the doubter and complainer Israelite (Hosea 4:6)
We do not prosper because we don’t abide in His word of assurance (John 15:4), The Devil steal our prosperity says John 10:10. We must know that God has defeated that devil of poverty but we are worst than unbeliever. Please read “For I know the plan to prosper you and not to harm you…… Jeremiah 29:11)Our brothers are becoming poor because they spend lavishly like prince and princess. They do not help the poor and sick too! The verse Jeremiah 5:27, 28 suit them. Anyhow, God still love to bless them but they are blinded by their wordly affair.
What about our youth? They always want easy money and are very lazy. They want car, house and want to become like Katrina Kaif, but they never try nor do they take risk. They like comfort zone! Did God drove Manna into the Israelite hand? No!
The cobbler and the barber that we see in our land had left their comfort zone from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. They are earning happily. Why we cannot learn from them?
A vegetable seller whose shop is near to our Butcher brother’s stall surprises me! Why? He owned an auto! Our poor butcher brother has been selling pork from ten years but they are becoming poor and poor. Reason-our brother used unfair means and force us to buy unwanted meat always! Proverbs 11:1 and Jeremiah 5:27 suits for them. Remember, you may be an IAS officer or a pastor but if you do unfair means than you give your prosperity to devil (John10:10).You will become a borrower and you will beg the Grocery shop wala for credit! Our God has given a choice of prosperity or poverty in Deuteronomy 30:19.
What do you say about the nonbeliever who sell momo, chow, pushka at Dimapur , Durga Mandir side? They have LIC and good Bank balance. What about you?
I knew a tea seller who goes shop to shop. Do you know his earning? Approximately he gets Rs.25, 000 every month. His qualification is class 1. What will you comment? Trust me-he earns more than me!
Some of our youth are good in blaming our government and bla bla but in front of us the non believers are earning happily. Do you know what they told me once?”In Dimapur money is flying but you must know how to catch politely. “Everyday many people come by train to earn at Haze Park and New market area and they return back on the same day. Remember, Dimapur is their earning heaven and dumping hell too! Our pond at Haze Park is crying due to their garbage and unwanted waste. They earn in our land and they do not respect our land. Shall we go and clean?
If I was a God for one day then I would like to take all our youth’s of Nagaland to Manipur. Why? In Manipur you will not find any unbeliever even among the rickshaw wala! The Manipuriwork like our forfather without shame and doubt in any field. Do you know that many Rickshawala of Manipur are graduate and postgraduate?
Before I wind up, I am requesting you all to follow Mathew 6:33. Jesus said” Heaven and earth will pass away but not his word (Mark 13:31), Is Jesus a lair? No, never! Anyhow I dedicate this article to you all and to Jenny (Nganthoibee Chanu) for accepting Christ. All the glory to our prosperous Jesus!
