Today's Faith Food by Kenneth E. Hagin says this:
"If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land" (Isa. 1:19).
If you are willing and obedient, it is God's will that you have the best. (Of course, you can't walk in disobedience and enjoy the good things of God.)
God is not a miser or a tightwad. And He didn't put everything here in this world for the devil and his crowd to enjoy.
Some people have the idea that if you're a Christian, you should never have anything, financially or materially. They believe that you should go through life poor and beaten down.
But Jesus said, "If ye then, being evil and natural, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?" (Matt. 7:11).
Oh, God wants to give us good gifts! He wants us to have the best! He wants us to prosper and have the good things of this life! But we must cooperate with Him.
How do we cooperate with God in order to walk in the fullness of all that He has blessed us with? By spending time in daily fellowship with Him, by meditating His Word day and night so that we can see, know and understand all that He has for us and then follow the direction of the Holy Spirit as He leads us day by day according to all the fullness of the Word of God! Instantly obey what you see in the Word of God and the still small voice of the Spirit of God Who lives inside of every believer! Do you understand what John 10:10 actually says?
10 The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows). AMP
This "life" is the Greek word "zoe" that refers to the Life that God has within Himself! Jesus came and died and rose again to ransom us back from the clutches of the enemy AND to place us in His Kingdom! He also provided for that same Life that is in Him to be IN us! HALLELUJAH! Have and enjoy the Life that was purchased for you! Share that Life with whoseover will receive HIM Amen! Here is Hillsong with "Endless Light":
Shalom in Him!
