SWT - Day 6 Jesus Became Poor So You Could Be Rich
Day 6 — Jesus Became Poor So You Could Be Rich
Scripture
“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.”
— 2 Corinthians 8:9
Quote
“Listen carefully: you were created to walk in biblical wealth so that what is in Heaven can be expressed through your life on Earth.”
— Dr. Daniel LeBlanc
Teaching
The gospel is not merely about forgiveness of sins; it is about total redemption. When Scripture declares that Jesus became poor so that you might become rich, it reveals a divine exchange that took place at the cross. Poverty was not incidental—it was intentional. Jesus did not accidentally experience lack; He willingly entered it so you would no longer have to live under it.
This verse confronts one of the most deeply ingrained religious lies: that poverty is holy or that lack somehow glorifies God. It does not. Jesus never glorified poverty, never promoted it, and never told His followers to embrace it. Instead, He redeemed humanity from it. Redemption means legal transfer. What He paid for, you are commanded to receive. What He redeemed, you are called to steward.
Biblical wealth is not about indulgence; it is about assignment. Jesus removed poverty’s authority so Kingdom provision could flow freely through God’s people. Being poor was never God’s plan for Adam, nor for any generation that would come after him. Poverty entered through the fall, and Jesus addressed it through redemption. Satan’s strategy has always been to steal, kill, and destroy—but God’s plan has always been life, abundance, and restoration.
In the last days, this truth becomes even more critical. God is positioning His people to carry Kingdom supply for Kingdom purpose. The final harvest will require supernatural provision, and that provision must flow through redeemed people who understand both the command and the calling attached to wealth. You were created for Kingdom supply, not survival. Open your heart to God’s plan and purpose for the Last Days Great Awakening. What Jesus redeemed, you are commanded to receive. What He paid for, you are called to steward.
Today, allow this revelation to reshape how you view provision. Wealth is not a reward for holiness—it is a resource for obedience. Jesus paid the price so Heaven’s abundance could move through you and fund God’s purposes on the earth.
Declaration
I declare that Jesus has redeemed me from poverty and lack. Because He became poor for my sake, I am commanded to receive Kingdom provision and called to steward it for God’s purposes. I reject survival thinking and receive Kingdom supply. I am a vessel through which Heaven’s resources flow for the Last Days Great Awakening. Amen.
Prayer
Father, I thank You for the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ who willingly became poor so that I could walk in Kingdom provision. I receive what He redeemed and accept the calling to steward it faithfully. Purify my motives, align my heart, and make me a trustworthy vessel for Kingdom resources. Use my life to fund Your purposes and advance Your harvest in these last days. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Application
1. Read 2 Corinthians 8:9 slowly and reflect on the exchange Jesus made on your behalf.
2. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal any belief you hold that contradicts redemption and provision.
3. Write down areas where you have lived in survival rather than Kingdom supply.
4. Pray for wisdom to steward what God places in your hands with faith and obedience.
5. Prayerfully consider how Kingdom resources are meant to flow through your life to advance God’s purposes in this generation—through your local church and Kingdom works such as Ignite Evangelism, Child Evangelism Fellowship, and other ministries committed to the Great Harvest.
