Message summary & scripture references

God gave His blessing to all believers, regardless of race or gender. The job of the blessing is to bring prosperity to the believer. However, many believers who are African-American aren’t as prosperous as they should be. There are very real societal issues that create barriers to African-American prosperity, but Holy Spirit gave me two spiritual reasons that African-American believers need to address in order to step into the fullness of the prosperity that God has in store for them.

[7] For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.

Matthew 18:21-22 KJV
