Questioning Prosperity

You asked the question:
Why is there no prosperity,
Around me? Well, the answer
Is that the world is afraid
Of what I placed in thee.
Yes, I've been ready for
You to prosper. It's your
Turn to trust in Me, and
Believe that I had plans 
For you way before I placed
You as a seed in your mother's
Womb. You have what you
Need for prosperity. Study 
My Word, spend time with me,
Live by my Word, Practice 
The teachings of my Word,
And prosperity you'll have,
You heard! Don't be afraid
Of what said,You asked the question:
Why is there no prosperity,
Around me?Well, the answer
Is that the world is afraid
Of what I placed in thee.
And the solution to the
Problem is to believe 
Whole-heartedly in me.
