DEFINING GOD\u2019S ECONOMY.  SESSION 15

\n

\n

It is convenient to run to God for supply and provision whenever we find ourselves in some kind of pressing needs or some kind of trouble, and this is good but not good enough if we truly desire to step into God\u2019s ordained plan and design for us.

\n

The first time I saw the term god\u2019s economy was around 1993, 94, not very sure. During this period, I was into selling Christian books and also help to build Christian leaders\u2019 personal libraries. I remember going into a bookshop ran by Christian science, and I saw this big book with the title, god\u2019s economy. I could remember opening just to check what in the world this book could be talking about.

\n

I had previously bought some concordance and other reference books in the shop. I remember looking at the name of the author, and it says witness nee. But i remember another Chines author by the name watchman nee. I did not by the book that day because i was a bit skeptical, partly due to the Christian science environment. By the time i returned to buy a copy, they have all been sold. I did regretted not buying a copy that day. I later in the future found the pirated copies that were printed in various volumes.

\n

The Greek word economy Oikonomia comes from the word stewardship. It means the manager of a household. The administrator of a house, a distributor or dispenser of resource, or even assignment that makes the house run effectively.

\n

The father has a divine enterprise and investment that should be administrated according to his divine program.

MATHEW 24

\n

\u202645 Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper time? 46 Blessed is that servant whose master returns and finds him doing his job. 47 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.\u2026
