VIKTOR SAARI MINISTRIES

I recently asked myself a very profound question; what’s stopping me? Thinking for a moment, I began to wonder what had stopped others from not only pursuing their dreams, but also from becoming the person they wanted to be?

Was it talent? Was it dedication? Was it work ethic? What exactly is it that stops us from being who we want to be? Think for a minute, what exactly do you need to have, in  order to do what you want to do?

After many weeks of thinking and pondering, I began to realize that the only thing that was stopping me from being who I wanted to be, and doing what I wanted to do, was……money.

The almighty dollar; if I had enough of them I could do whatever I want to do and be a person that people respected. Now, is this a personal flaw that I have? After all, the Bible says that “the root of all evil is the love of money”.

NO. No, you and I both know we were made to have things, and money is one of them. I’m sure you’re thinking right now about all your personal problems, not to mention everybody else’s problems, that money could solve.

The question is, how are you going to prosper? You don’t know do you? Well, I’ve got news for you, I do! These next 9 days I will give you 9 excerpts from my book 9 ways to prosper. Stay tuned………

Psalm 30:6 ⁶And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.

PSALM 137

¹By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion. ²We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. ³For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion. ⁴How shall we sing the LORD’s song in a strange land?

Life can sometimes take us captive. It can take what we hold dear to us if were not careful. Most people hold their lives so dear to themselves that they believe what they have and who they know is who they are.

We love to worship and praise God when things are going well. We love to thank God for all He’s given us when there is no pressure or opposition. See, it’s easy to sing when you’re standing on the mountain top. It’s easy to sing when things are just the way you want them; but what about when opposition comes?

I remember the night my Grandfather died and my whole family was in Hospital. There was a lot tension, crying and worrying. I remembering sitting with my Grandmother and wondering what was going on? Why were we here? I didn’t realize that my Grandfather was in another room dying and that I would never see him again.

That night is still so vivid in my mind; it is almost like it happened yesterday. I can still remember my Sister and I sitting on opposite sides of Grandma and her saying “Don’t worry, it’s going to be alright”, which I think was more for her comfort than ours.

Many years past by and my Father and I were talking about God. He was telling me how important God was and how you must recognize Him as the focal point of your family, if you are going to overcome all the tests and trails that the Devil brings.

My Dad brought me back to the night when his Dad and my Grandfather died. He told me the night his father died he realized his true father was God. I realized that my Dad was trying to tell me that my confidence and strength had to be in God the Father because if it was not, my confidence was in something that would not always be there for me.

We need to realize that when test and trials come the Devil is going to ask us the same question he asked the Israelites “Can you sing your song of Joy now?” It is as the Word says; the joy of the Lord is our strength!

JAMES 1:2-4

²My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; ³Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. ⁴But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

In the natural sense we can have faith in anything we want. We can have faith in finances, our jobs and circumstances. This is where many believers go wrong in their thinking. They feel they have to have faith that is multi-faceted. They believe their faith must work in all kinds of areas in their lives. They feel they have to have faith in healing, for it to work; they feel they have to have faith in finances to be blessed and this is just simply not true.

This kind of outlook on faith presents a major problem because it actually gets us looking to the supply, rather than the source. It would be like me going shopping and I was looking to buy an item. I’m not looking to the place where I’m going to go shopping; I am looking to the item I want to purchase. See, I really don’t care where I get it from, all I care is that I purchase the item and get it at the cheapest price.

When we get our focus on the supply rather than the source, we will look to get what we want, the easiest way. We must understand though that this faith is not the God-kind of faith; it’s only our kind of faith and this is why many times we do not receive. It is not because our faith does not have the capacity to change our lives; but it is because we are so easily waver on our faith. James 1:7-8 clearly states that no man wavering should think that he should receive anything from the Lord.

So, what then is a sure-fire way to receive what you need? The Holy Spirit; He is the one that directs us in the direction it wants faith to go and where He is taking us is further and further into Jesus.

He is not taking us into healing; He’s taking us into Jesus, who is healing. He not taking us into financial prosperity; He’s taking us into Jesus who is provision. He’s not taking us into deliverance; He’s taking us into Jesus the deliverer. What the Holy Spirit is really doing is taking Him further into Himself. We see that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are all one. So really when we are being led by the Holy Spirit, He is just taking us further into God and further into who you really are.

See it’s very important we do not eliminate the middle man. Unlike things in this world, eliminating the middle man does not save you time or money; it just breaks your connection. The only way you receive from heaven is because of the mediator who is Jesus. You must go through Him if you are to receive anything from heaven.

He is the only thing you have to have faith in, to receive anything you want. He gave you a provision when He gave you His name! In Galatians 4:5 it says that we were adopted as sons and daughters and have taken on the name of Christ Jesus; much the same way a wife takes the name of her husband.

We must understand as believers the power of his name. His name changes the surroundings. His name changes the circumstances and puts the miraculous back in Christianity. Understand what a name is. It is a reputation, an identity, a title and a standing. A name is an authority or a character. This is what has been given to the believer, if we could only realize this.

Philippians 2:9 shows us the astounding power of the name of Jesus:

⁹Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

¹⁰That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

We as believers need to realize this astounding fact; all the works of the devil must bow to the name of Jesus. The name of Jesus was given to us to tear down sickness, disease, poverty and for deliverance of any kind. Always remember, the only thing you’ll ever need is faith in Jesus.
