Bible Verse of The Day – 7-26-22

Ecclesiastes 5:10 (NKJV) 10 He who loves silver will not be satisfied with silver; Nor he who loves abundance, with increase. This also is vanity.

Wealth and material gain will not bring satisfaction to our human soul. It is intrinsically elusive, meaning very hard to attain and hold onto.

There is a difference in wealth that has been sought after and wealth that has come by the hand of God. Wealth that comes by the hand of God has no curse associated with it.

God will bring wealth to those who can handle it. And we can only handle it if we look at it as not being ours, but His.

Let Him do with it what He wants to do.

If He wants to help someone or bless them with what He has blessed us with, let Him have full rule over what He has put in our possession.

There are times when God wants to bless His child with riches and wealth. He just wants us to rejoice in the fruits of our labor. We can’t let it go to our head. This is a gift from God, not man.

Enjoy and be grateful. Remain humble and carry on.

Ecclesiastes 5:19 (NKJV) 19 As for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, and given him power to eat of it, to receive his heritage and rejoice in his labor—this is the gift of God.

God’s gifts to us come in many shapes and sizes, but there will be no greater gift than Salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ!

Let Him bring His gifts of wealth and riches, etc. to us as He sees fit. And let us receive them with joy.

But remember the most important gift, Jesus Christ; the One who will keep us close to the Father. He will teach us how to handle all other gifts through His guidance, and keep them in their proper place.

Amen.
