Your Wealth Is Not Evil

“Let those who favor my righteous cause and have pleasure in my uprightness shout for joy and be glad and say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, Who takes pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.”
Luke 6:38 NIV “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Give generously to God’s work. God will Bless you more as you learn to share your Blessing with others. So, be ready to help your neighbor. (See Proverbs 3:27-28)
We must all learn to trust God for our Finances – 1 John 5:14 AMP “And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us.” Some Christians think that poverty is the gateway to true spirituality. This is not true, wealth and poverty have the potential to take you closer to God or away from Him, depending on your attitude. Wealth by itself is not evil, in fact, the Word of God wishes us to be prosperous.
Therefore, you must manage your money well. If you do not manage your money well, you will soon have money problems. Do not spend more money just because you are making more, learn to invest it into God’s work and for future use, do not buy things impulsively and always work things into your budget.
