How to Prosper in Famine: Part One

In this episode of the CityLight Church Podcast, Nathaniel St. Eloi kicks off a two-part series, "How to Prosper in Famine," teaching from Genesis 12–13. He shows how Abraham's blessing was tied to obedience and location, not circumstance—and how fleeing to Egypt instead of trusting God in Canaan cost him dearly. Through a powerful testimony of sacrificial giving, Nathaniel challenges listeners to stay faithful where God has planted them and declares that the famine many feel is over.   00:00 Introduction: Obedience Unlocks Favor and Blessing 01:12 Welcome and the Knicks Championship Celebration 02:13 How to Prosper in Famine: The Message Begins 03:11 Kingdom Citizens Are Not Subject to This World's System 04:21 Genesis 12: The Law of First Mention and Famine 05:49 Abraham's Promise and the Unexpected Famine 12:29 The Danger of Going Down to Egypt 15:26 The Blessing Is on the Man, Not the Land 16:30 Kelly's Testimony: Doubling the Tithe and Doubling the Income 19:06 Don't Drag Lot Along: Not Everyone Will Understand Your Revelation 20:51 The Grass Is Greener Where the Holy Spirit Calls You 23:23 Abraham's Worst Mistake in Egypt 26:45 Genesis 13: Abraham Returns and Becomes Very Rich 28:18 Prophetic Declaration: Your Famine Is Over 29:35 Be Where God Wants You to Be 32:08 Psalm 37: Satisfied in the Days of Famine 33:39 Prayer for Unlocking Doors and Million Dollar Ideas 34:55 The Widow of Zarephath: Give God First in Famine 37:26 Challenge to Give More: Activating Faith Through Obedience 39:15 Offering Time and Prayer for Supernatural Blessing 42:38 Altar Call: Jumping in the River with God https://citylightnyc.com/
