(From Kenneth Hagin - The Midas Touch)
"As I continued to wait before the Lord concerning my finances, spending time in the Word with prayer and fasting, He said to me, 'Go back to the Book of Beginnings'.
"Now that I was willing and obedient, He was showing me how to get my thinking straightened out.. I knew what He was talking about when He said the Book of beginnings -- He meant the Book of Genesis."
"The Lord went on to tell me that He made the world and the fullness thereof. He created it. He said to me, 'Then I created My man, Adam." And the Lord saw that it was not good for man to be alone, so He created Eve."
"The Lord said to them, 'I give you dominion over all the works of My hands (Gen 1:26,28)'. Over how much? Over all the works of His hands!"
"And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
Gen 1:26-28
"After the Lord showed me these scriptures in Psalms 50:10-12 and Genesis 1, He said, 'There's another scripture that says, "The silver is Mine, and the gold is Mine, saith the Lord of hosts' (Haggai 2:8) . He then said, 'They're all Mine, not because they're in My possession, but because I created them."
"But who do you think I created the cattle upon a thousand hills for? Who do you think I created the silver and the gold for?'
Who do you think I created the world and the fullness thereof for? For the devil and his crowd? No. I made them for My man, Adam.
"But", the Lord continued, "My people have wrong thinking".
"The Lord said, "The silver and the gold are not all here for the devil and his crowd. I made it for My man, Adam, but then He committed high treason against Me."

"The Lord told me all this and related it to faith for finances. As I was praying and waiting before Him, He said to me by the Holy Spirit: 'The money you need is down there. It isn't up here in Heaven. I don't have any American dollars up here. I'm not going to rain any money down from Heaven because if I did, it would be counterfeit. And I'm not a counterfeiter.'"
Pg28
"After the Lord showed me this, He said, "Whatever you need, you just claim it".
Pg 29
"The Lord said to me, "Don't pray about money like you have been. Whatever you need, claim it in Jesus' name. And then you say, 'Satan, take your hands off my money.' And then say, 'Go, ministering spirits, and cause the money to come."
"This was way back in 1950. And from that day to this, I've not prayed about money. I'm talking about me individually --personally."

"The Lord said, 'Didn't you ever read in My Word where it says that angels are ministering spirits sent to minister for those who are heirs of salvation?'" (Heb 1.14)
