"Wealth gained by dishonesty will be diminished, But he who gathers by labor will increase." (Proverbs 13:11 NKJV)
He is reminding that the system of Seedtime and Harvest is set as our way to prosper. Anything done out of that system is fruitless, specially by deception and fraud. Yes, they who scams and schemes may seem to gain, but it will fly away in a flash. Most often, when those dishonest gains are gone it leaves broken lives behind.
We are to operate in the system with our honest labor and pure intentions, trusting in the mighty hands of God by faith in Christ Jesus. We till the ground. We sow the seeds. We tend to it and wait, knowing that He is God who already did His part to establish the system that can take us to the plentiful harvest - so that we can be blessed to be a blessing.
When we sow, it always produces a harvest. Lord Jesus gives this assurance: “The earth produces by itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.” (Mark 4:28-29 ESV)
And I say, AMEN!

(When God says... I say, AMEN! is a provocative reflection of the Lord's holy Word. It intends to challenge every seeker of truth to dig deep into the core of the Word of Life to point every being to Christ Jesus - the author and finisher of our faith, and to draw revelations for change, for nourishment and for strength of every soul.)
