You must not be familiar with the prosperity gospel. Their theology treats God as a perpetual treat dispenser. And it is your fault if you somehow remain poor.
Jesus said “The poor will always be with you.” Also “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven” (not earth). We build up treasures in Heaven, not here. “What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet loses his soul?”
I don’t think oyu understand it. Prospeirty is more than just material wealth, although that is obviously a significant part of it.
It’s not “your fault” if you’re poor. It’s simply the outworking of the choices that you have made. EVERYTHING IS. Of course, we’re expected to help the poor, but not to maintain them in their poverty.
The Bible is full of quotes saying that it is God’s intent for us to be prosperous. Some people choose to ignore those quotes, for whatever reason.
if you believe that you’re supposed to be poor, you will think and act in ways that enable you to be poor. But if you change the way you think about it, you can change the circumstances that surround you.
The only people who get rich from the Prosperity Gospel are the pastors who preach it.
