Book club: Money and the Prosperous Soul
Chapter 6: Bound in Spirit
Greetings Prosperous Souls,
Today we’ll explore a topic that’s close to my heart: Bound in Spirit. This concept comes directly from Apostle Paul:
“And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there..." — Acts 20:22 KJV
Bound in spirit. What’s he referring to?
In my Prosperous Soul Online - Foundations course, I interpret this as Paul’s understanding of his divine purpose. He was so attuned to the Holy Spirit, that he pressed forward in his calling, regardless of the danger.
How committed was Paul to his destiny? Turns out until death. History tells us the apostle’s journey eventually led him to Rome, where he was martyred. But even aware of the risks, Paul pressed on with courage, knowing that it was better to pursue God’s will than ignore it.
Imagine if you were Paul, feeling called to a specific region, knowing that it could cost you your life. What would you do?

Join this afternoon’s meeting at 3:30 PM (CA time). We’ll explore the crucial question: Are you moving forward in your divine purpose? Maybe there are there some roads the Holy Spirit is pulling toward that sound frightening? Are you willing to rise to the challenge and face them? Or will you stay behind with what feels safe?
