First Post of the Mighty Men: 100 Fold Returns This year

I must say that I am tremendously excited to see what God is about to do in each of our lives, particularly in the realm of finances.

Last night I was up to 3 in the morning, praying and felt like the Lord gave me the following scripture and thoughts…

Genesis 26:12-14  Isaac planted a crop in that land and the same year reaped a hundredfold, because the Lord had blessed him.  The man became rich, and his wealth continued to grow until he became very wealthy.  He had so many flocks and herds and servants that the Philistines envied him.

This scripture is exciting in itself, that God would bless one in such a way that he would reap 100 fold the first year he was in business.  What is more exciting is the backdrop to the whole passage which is given in the first eight words of chapter 26, “Now there was a famine in the land...”

In this passage there is a worldwide famine going on in the land, but God told Isaac to not go to Egypt, the place everyone else went during a famine, because God knew that the Egyptian system, was one that ultimately led to slavery; so God had Isaac stay in Gerar.

Because of Isaac’s obediance, God blessed him 100 fold on his first years crops.  And the blessing did not stop there, but continued on until Isaac and his entire family became very wealthy.  So much so that the king of the Philistines asked him to move away because he was becoming more powerful than the Philistine nation.

This is my prayer for us this week, that we would bring forth 100 fold, even in the midst of the famine in the land.  He who is faithful is faithful and just to perform his word and he will complete it.

On a prophetic note, I came to my computer this morning and picked up a new debit card that came in the mail yesterday and put it into my wallet.  Then I checked the Elijah list and this is part of an article from Doug Addison that I saw, which I think is for all three of us…

ATM Cards from Heaven
I saw "spiritual ATM cards" being issued to people for "Angelic Teller Machines". God is assigning angels that will make finances and favor available from June 8 through September 30 (Pentecost – Rosh Hashanah). This is a specific time that people are going to reap what they have previously sown. In other words, we are in a time right now that we are receiving from God because of things that we have done and given to over the past nine years (2001-2011).
The amount of grace and blessing being received right now will not seem to make sense to some because it is coming as back-payment for previous losses.
Plan Now for the Future Assignments
Don't assume the amount of blessing you are receiving from June to September will continue at the same high velocity. So don't just think you can camp in the flow of blessing, you will still need to be wise and position yourself to get the new promotions coming after September. Begin planning now by watching for new opportunities.

Blessings on each of us, God is good.
