Blessed
Say what you will about the prosperity message, but in the Bible, the way they knew that people were blessed is because they had success, because they had possessions. There was something that people could see in the lives of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob that they knew that the Lord had blessed them. Prosperity is evidence of the blessing, just like tongues is evidence of being filled with the Holy Spirit. The blessing includes increase, everywhere in scripture.

Increase! Part 2
Where are the disciples in this story of Jesus healing the lepers? More than likely, they were right there with Jesus, watching faith in action. Even though they're not mentioned, they play a huge part in the story because they show us how sometimes we need to "be" before we "do." As we learn from God by "being," then we can get the instructions we need to start "doing."
