He wants us to be diligent in all we do, from the smallest thing to the biggest thing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">God says that if we are diligent, our souls will be made rich. Did you notice the difference between what God says and what some others say?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Many people, including some in the church, will tell us that if we are diligent, we will become wealthy with material things. God says our <em>soul <\/em>will be made rich.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">It\u2019s important that we pay attention to this. Why? Because if our soul is rich, then and only then can we properly handle material wealth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">With material wealth there also comes a big responsibility. Most of us aren\u2019t ready for material wealth when we think we are. And if we\u2019re not careful, material wealth will ruin us in a hurry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Sure, it makes some things a lot easier. But it can lead us into many, many snares if we don\u2019t know how to properly handle it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Let\u2019s learn to become diligent, so our souls will prosper, before we worry about prospering with our finances.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Then, as we continue to be diligent, as God makes our soul prosper, so will He also help us to prosper financially, as He sees that we can handle it properly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Pastor Curt &amp; Pastor Ellie<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\">Seven Seas Ministries<br \/>\nP.O.
