===Prosperity===
{{main|Prosperity theology}}
Word of Faith teaching holds that its believers have a divine right to prosper in all areas of life, including finances, health, marriage, and relationships. Prosperity is not desired for the hoarding of finances but to be an avenue God uses to fund missions for the spreading of the gospel and to help the needy.{{Citation needed|reason=Previous citation was just a link to a book check-out page, no source material or appropriately formatted book reference|date=November 2023}}
