"God is most glorified in you when you are most satisfied in Him in the midst of loss, not prosperity."

Blasphemy! You need to come to one of my seminars and be healed of these thoughts immediately. Make a donation and I will "bless" a lottery ticket for you that will enable God to prosper you in unimaginable ways!
