Eph 1:15 For this reason I too, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which exists among you and your love for all the saints, Eph 1:16 do not cease giving thanks for you, while making mention of you in my prayers; Eph 1:17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him.

2 Cor 4:11 For we who live are constantly being delivered over to death for Jesus' sake
The gospel of prosperity boast big things based on this scripture
.
3 John 1:2 Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.
Yes this is indeed true about what GOD desires for us all but with the exception of a higher purpose in HIM.
The comfy position held by the prosperity crowd is shaken up and considered insignificant, in order for Jesus to show Himself strong in us who are chosen to suffer for His Name's sake.
2 Cor 4:11 For we who live are constantly being delivered over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
Death is an ongoing process to the elect of GOD. Did you notice the word "constantly" in the above verse.
.
2 Cor 12:10 So for the sake of Christ, I am well pleased and take pleasure in infirmities, insults, hardships, persecutions, perplexities and distresses; for when I am weak in human strength, then am I [truly] strong able, powerful in divine strength.
And, by the way - Happy New year :)
