The covenant of wealth is an agreement between God and His people in which God promises that He will provide for and heal His people. The covenant was God’s idea and not mans.

Deuteronomy 8:18 but you shall remember the Lord your God: for it is he who gives you power to get wealth, that he may establish (continue) his covenant which he swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and it is still the same today.
The word wealth, as translated in this verse means plenteous in goods. And if you don’t mind my saying so what this really means is that it is God’s will and covenant for us to have plenty of good stuff.
Now don’t get crazy on me, this does not necessarily mean that God wants everyone to be a millionaire but it does mean that God wants us to have nice things. I realize that people have a hard time with this but as you read through the Bible you will discover that God’s Word shows that it is his will for us to be prosperous. God never wants us to be poor.
Money is not evil but the love of money is evil. I know rich people who love money and I know poor people who love money and it is evil in both cases. It is not noble to be poor because the Bible even tells us in Deuteronomy 28:15-68 that poverty and sickness is a curse.
Jesus said in John 10:10 I am come that you might have life and have it more abundantly. I say that if Jesus came so that we could have an abundant life the least we can do is live an abundant life.
Someone has to pay the bills and people who have more than enough money are the people who pay the bills. It takes money for evangelism, to keep the lights on in the church, to send a television signal which carries the gospel into other countries, to pay the preacher and to feed the poor.
The rule of thumb is from Matthew chapter 6:33 when Jesus said, Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and everything you need will be given to you. This is not poverty. Having everything you need given unto you is prosperity and that is what Jesus said we could and should have.
The covenant of wealth is a promise God made to Abraham and it is still in effect today for all Christians who are sons and daughters of Abraham according to Galatians chapter 3:7-9 which says that people of faith are the children of Abraham and are blessed with faithful Abraham. What a wonderful promise.
