The Most Radical Prosperity Preacher Is Not A Man, It Is The Bible!

“I will increase not only the people, but also your animals. O mountains of Israel, I will bring people to live on you once again. I will make you even more prosperous than you were before. Then you will know that I am the Lord.” — Ezekiel 36:11 (NLT)

Prosperity is not a fringe idea, nor is it the invention of “prosperity preachers” or a handful of denominations. Prosperity is the heart of God revealed from Genesis to Revelation. The message that God blesses, multiplies, restores, and supplies is not man’s idea—it is God’s Word.

The Bible is filled with covenant promises of fruitfulness, abundance, and increase for those who walk with Him. Jesus Himself declared, “Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you” (Matthew 6:33). Hebrews reminds us that “God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6). Every blessing of God flows from connection—prosperity is covenant-based, never automatic, and always rooted in relationship with Him.

When the Bible talks about prosperity, yes, it speaks of money…and much more. Prosperity is God’s blessing of shalom—peace, fruitfulness, sufficiency, and abundance that enables His people to fulfill His purpose.

Following is a great Bible study. Below are over 70 scriptures that reveal God’s heart to prosper His people. Each verse is accompanied by a short recap and the full text in the New Living Translation (NLT).

As we have seen, the Bible is overflowing with promises of prosperity, fruitfulness, and blessing. Yet every one of these blessings is given in the context of covenant relationship with God. Jesus said, “Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you” (Matthew 6:33). Hebrews reminds us that “God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6). Prosperity is not automatic; it flows out of connection, obedience, and intimacy with the Lord. When we put Him first, walk in His ways, and align with His purpose, the blessings of God overflow—not only for us, but through us, so that others may know the goodness of our God.
