Read: Proverbs 22: 4; Leviticus 26: 9-12, 15; Deuteronomy 8: 18
Humility and the fear of the Lord bring wealth and honor and life. Proverbs 22: 4
Today, we continue to study "How to receive blessing and prosperity?" as below:
(5) Humility and fear of the Lord bring wealth.
In Proverbs 22: 4 talk about humility is humble yourself in the sight of the Lord, the fear of the Lord is put your trust in Him and obey Him totally. Then God brings wealth and honor and life to you! We need to do what is God said? And then we shall receive wealth , honor, life and health.
(6) Keep my covenant with you.
In Leviticus 26: 9-12 said, "I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers, and I will keep my covenant with you. You will still be eating last year's harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new. I will put my dwelling place (my tabernacles) among you, and I will not abhor you. I will walk among you and be your God and you will be my people." And verse 15 said, "I will provide grass in the field for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied.
When we read verses above, we knew that we are favor of God and He makes us fruitful and He will keep His covenant with us. And we will still be eating last year's harvest, because there are too much. we have to make a room for the new harvest. Praise the Lord! He will dwell with us and He will walk among us and be our God, and we will be His people. God provides for people, and He also prepare grasses for the cattle or animals. then we will eat and be satisfied. We have plenty and joyful for satisfaction in our lives.
In Deuteronomy 8: 18 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 forefathers as it is today." God gives us ability to produce (make) wealth (money) and so confirms His covenant, God makes sure his covenant is working today until future, even from the past, he has promised our forefather, and God still keep His covenant and His Word. Hallelujah!
Next time, we shall finish this topic. See you!
When we work our part, God finishes with wealth, honor and abundant life.
