The Kingdom of GOD is based on abundance, the kingdom of man is based on scarcity.
This website has provided much detail about the current financial system since after all, we are operating in this system. All of us want to obtain or retain wealth so that we can carry on the affairs of our lives. Food, shelter, and clothing are all necessities that require payment of some kind. In the kingdom of scarcity, there are those in control who want to dictate who gets what, the King Saul mentality. It is important for us to view the other system which supersedes this system: The Kingdom of GOD.
Healthcare: The U.S. spends trillions in healthcare every year and the Administration wants to establish a $2 Trillion guaranteed healthcare plan. Healthcare costs in the Kingdom: $0. Jesus healed the multitudes. The following provides us a list of HIS healthcare ministry

Shouldn’t we be focusing on “alternative” healthcare? As my colleague Dr. Vince Speckhart has said, “The body is designed to heal itself”. The current economic system is chemical based and generates thousands of toxins that are absorbed into our bodies and cause our bodies to malfunction. Our current solution is to treat the results of toxic interference with pharmaceuticals that add to the toxic overload. We each have a unique history of toxic absorption and require a uniquely formed solution. Jesus’ healing ministry tended to focus on “acute” problems. Could it be that we are expected to resolve chronic problems before they turn into acute problems? Isn’t that what stewardship is all about? Cleansing the body is just one facet of The Kingdom Economy. What would happen if our bodies were detoxified and operated as designed? What would the average healthcare cost per family be reduced to if most of the chronic conditions were resolved and brought to conclusion? My guess is a hundred bucks per month, max!
We should focus on two things in this area:
1. unlocking the healing ministry of Jesus which will only come by the revelation of Love.
2. pursuing revelation of reversing the toxic accumulation of the body.
