As I was in prayer and asking the Lord what is on His heart for those who are going through financial uncertainty, the Lord spoke to me prophetically and said, "Seed time and harvest." I asked the Lord to explain and He took me to the Scripture in Genesis 8:22 where it declares: "While the earth remaineth, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."

The government has introduced stimulus packages to come to the aid of the desperate cries of many, but even that's not enough.
"Favor in Famine"
God started to speak to me about "favor in famine." The Holy Spirit said that there is a key that will release heavenly stimulus in a time of economic drought. He took me to the Scripture in Genesis 26:12-15 where it says:
"Now Isaac sowed in that land and reaped in the same year a hundredfold. And the LORD blessed him, and the man became rich, and continued to grow richer until he became very wealthy; for he had possessions of flocks and herds and a great household, so that the Philistines envied him. Now all the wells which his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped up by filling them with earth."
We can see that in a time of famine, drought and economic uncertainty, he activated the... (continue reading)
