Proverbs 28:22 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God Says...

“He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, And considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.” (Proverbs 28:22 KJV)

He is warning against chasing in haste and with greed the riches of this world. A person like that has an evil eye, God's holy and written Word reveals. For one as such, dearth awaits, as this passage declares: “But people who long to be rich fall into temptation and are trapped by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction.”(1 Timothy 6:9 NLT)

Instead, we are to set our eyes and minds on matters that last, as this exhortation calls us to: “Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.”(Colossians 3:2 NIV)

We can secure the truly rich possession by accepting the Lord Jesus Christ to reign in our heart. By His grace through faith in Him, He is our source for everything we need -physical and spiritual. It is written: “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.” (2 Corinthians 8:9 ESV)

And I Say, AMEN!
