“Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment.” 1 Timothy 6:17 (NLT)
“Give me neither poverty nor riches! Give me just enough to satisfy my needs. For if I grow rich, I may deny you and say, “Who is the Lord?” And if I am too poor, I may steal and thus insult God’s holy name.” Proverbs 30:8-9 (NLT)
"Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others." 1 Timothy 6:18 (NLT)
“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it. The world and all its people belong to him.”
Psalm 24:1 (NLT)
“The heavens are yours, and the earth is yours; everything in the world is yours—you created it all.” Psalm 89:11 (NLT)
Jesus tells us, “It is more blessed to give to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35 (NLT)
"By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life." 1 Timothy 6:19 (NLT)
“Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven…” Matthew 6:20 (NIV)
“Money can function as an ingredient in a lifestyle, that forgets God’s existence. You may not have theologically denied the existence of God, but your money supports a lifestyle that ignores it.” Paul David Tripp – Sex & Money
GOD IS NOT THE SOURCE FOR ALL WE WANT, HE IS THE SOURCE FOR ALL WE NEED.
GOD PROVIDES RICHLY FOR YOU SO THAT HE CAN USE YOU TO RICHLY PROVIDE FOR OTHERS.
