SUCCESS AND WEALTH

SUCCESS AND WEALTH

Most people equate success with material wealth. In this present time and age this interpretation is neither strange nor heretic.

Remember that less than one percent of the population controls the wealth of any random country. Meaning, you can count but the fingers just who are the wealthy scions and families who belong to the top ten richest persons in your country.

Well, it is not wrong to be rich, for as long as your rich were produced from the sweat of your brow, your abundant wealth is considered morally right and legit. How you handle your riches though matters.

Permit me to cite the Bible verse that says, Deuteronomy 15:4: “However, there need be no poor among you, for in the land the Lord your God is giving you to possess as your inheritance, he will richly bless you.”

God has promised prosperity to his people ever since He blessed Abraham with a son despite being too old at 100 years. This, despite also that his wife Sarah was already way beyond the child-bearing age of 88 years.

Truly, with God nothing is impossible.

God's promise to prosper His people was preceded by Deuteronomy 8:18 when God said: “But remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant which He swore to your ancestors as it is today.”

Therefore, if our faith in God dominates our lives, His promise of prosperity will sure come, just like rain.
