Prophecy: It’s Time for the Body to Get Out of Poverty by KATHY DEGRAW for Charisma News
I keep hearing the word “entrepreneurship.” This word keeps cycling through my soul and spirit.
The word came from the Holy Spirit weeks ago as I was preaching. I intended to teach on spiritual warfare when the Holy Spirit released entrepreneurship, business ideas and creative strategies in the message. It has been continually coming up in my spirit about creating wealth for distribution and residual income.
I’ve been hearing that we need to create businesses—and not only for ourselves but to assist others. It is time for the body of Christ to come into wealth and get out of poverty. The poverty and lack mentality has been active too long. God wants to distribute wealth, but it comes with business creation. One of the burdens on my heart these past few weeks has been to help other people start businesses.

We love helping others and believe that’s one of the reasons we are chosen as Ambassadors of the Kingdom, to serve God’s children. We look to the Greatest Commandment as our Powering force.
Whether ministry or business, we keep too many ideas to ourselves and don’t try to establish other people. The fleshly tendencies of competition, jealousy and pride take hold, and we want to continue to build our empire and thrive more than we want to help others succeed.
Elisha got a double portion of Elijah’s mantle (2 Kings 2:9). Shouldn’t we as kingdom citizens desire to lead everyone we are mentoring or helping to create a double portion? Jesus said, “Go therefore and make disciples” (Matt. 28:19a). When we sow and invest in others from a secular or spiritual aspect, we are making disciples.
Many of us are looking for our financial situation to change and increase. However, this will usually happen by us creating and changing our position. This is best done with the Holy Spirit’s partnership. In my new book, Prophetic Spiritual Warfare:Partnering with the Holy Spirit to Manifest Your Destiny, you can learn how to manifest God’s will for your life through declaring prayer, conquering warfare and discerning the spiritual realm. I teach you how to rebuke and bind demonic attacks in your life.
