God’s plan for you as a believer is that you live in victory on earth with your eyes earnestly focused on the life of eternity with Him. The Lord revealed this much to prophet Jeremiah when He declared in Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” John the Apostle reiterated the same promise when he wrote in 3 John 2, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospered.” Victory connotes winning over circumstances that are in opposition to the fulfillment of your destiny, and to be victorious is to be free to live and utilize your potentials as God has ordained. From the Scriptures, we can therefore boldly conclude that there are three levels of prosperity the Lord plans for His children:

Prosperity in health, material prosperity, and prosperity in the spirit

I call this total or true prosperity. Therefore, to be a prosperous Christian, you must seek for and position yourself to be a partaker of this total prosperity. And this may not be possible unless you obey certain laws that pertain to life and godly living. These laws are seven in number.
This is the second law of a prosperous Christian – the Law of Defiance. This is also called the law of divine authority, and it educates you on how to apply your faith with an unshaken authority to defeat your enemies and take back what rightly belongs to you. Only those who understand and operate by the law of defiance can look the storm in the face, literally, and soar on the wind!
