October 27 - Daily Devotional - The Fine Line In Rich Blessings

Proverbs 28:20

“A faithful man will be richly blessed, but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished.”

 

Perhaps you have been excited to see increase in your finances, and be able to increase your giving, and bring your full tithe into the storehouse of God, and you are ready to be blessed to be a blessing.  Perhaps through your years of faith you have not heard that Jesus would want you to be rich, but instead that it’s better to be poor.  And then you are wondering what is that fine line that tips the balance from "being richly blessed” to “getting rich will not go unpunished”..

 

If you look at many of the main biblical characters they had to go through years of faithfulness to the word of God before they became richly blessed. They had to follow Gods instruction even when those instructions did not always make sense.  They had to sometimes suffer loss before getting their upgrade.  

 

Even though you are going to experience answered prayers, miracles, and bursts of financial blessings this way of living is not a get rich quick scheme.  It’s a test of faithfulness.  You need to each day invite the Lord into your day, into your work and be a diligent participant in serving the Kingdom of God in your life.  So the fine line is putting the living a HEAVENLY life now in the KINGDOM of God first, versus trying to get rich financially for your good first. 

 

THANK YOU LORD FOR ALL THE BLESSINGS YOU GIVE ME!  I APPRECIATE THE GIFT OF THE ABILITY TO GAIN WEALTH!  HELP ME TO PUT YOUR KINGDOM FIRST AND I KNOW ALL I NEED WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF BECAUSE THAT IS A PROMISE IN YOUR WORD!

 

 

*Meditate, pray or affirm the words in BOLD or that are highlighted!  Look for short daily messages from me to spread seeds of hope, encouragement, and expansion of your mind, body and spirit daily!
