Deuteronomy 8:18
Always remember that it is the LORD your God who gives you power to become rich, and he does it to fulfill the covenant he made with your ancestors.There are many ways to become rich, but the riches that come from God are the kind of thing that you can’t take credit for because you’d essentially be claiming that things were done through your own power and will, thus taking credit away from God. Job became very rich, but he clearly understood that those blessings came from God. Solomon became the richest person ever, but he also clearly recognized that those blessings came from God. Solomon tells us in Ecclesiastes 5:19, “And it is a good thing to receive wealth from God and the good health to enjoy it. To enjoy your work and accept your lot in life—that is indeed a gift from God.” As you pursue great things, thank God for the power to gain riches and become wealthy.
