Igzy. I agree with you. Osteen preaches a more 'positive & happy' gospel...not a prosperity gospel. Prosperity gospel preachers are the likes of Jesse Duplantis & Creflo Dollar, Paula White, Mike Murdock. Others mix prosperity with success & sprinkle it with trials/tribulations to get there.

And a few others still mix prosperity, success and the PURE WORD of God...complete with aspects of Faith, the Blood, Sanctification, the Cross (dying to self) Resurrection & end times. There are not many of them around...unfortunately.

I'm a WORD-FAITH person for sure...but it's not about "me-me-me and more of MEEEE'. I might pray I prosper financially but it's not so I can have a nice new Mercedes Benz!

I want the church to truly experience our minds being renewed..to believe we HAVE the MIND of Christ..to realize we ARE Co-heirs with CHRIST the KING..thus we are ROYALTY for He is the KING. And we are co-reigning with HIM. We are kings and priests to the Most High GOD. ALL the promises of Abraham are OURS! The world should be looking UP to US! They should be working for US! We should be commanding respect from the world because of the GLORY of GOD ON US! And yes...we will be experiencing these truths in the Thousand year reign..which is coming up on us very soon!
(no more than 10 yrs from now..my guess. )

That's how I apply the WORD-FAITH I learned from the WOF movement.

I want to bless the KINGDOM of GOD through my actions and with $$. I want my book collection to grow as well as my teaching/ CD-DVD collection to grow. I want more bibles in my house. I want to be debt free so I don't have to take time out to write bills!

And yeah... I DON'T want to suffer anymore. I've paid my dues. I've paid the price! I PRAY I have finally learned my lessons well. Of course, we never stop learning.
