Proverbs 13:11
Wealth gained by dishonesty will be diminished,
But he who gathers by labor will increase.
I see everything including the deepest thoughts and motivation of your heart. There is nothing hidden from My view, so it just makes sense to bring all things out into the light of My truth so you can be loosed and set free.
Do not succumb to the world's way of attaining wealth; it only leads to heartache and bondage. I have a much better way and it's called, Kingdom.
As you have noticed, there is a shaking in the world system and it is only the beginning of what is to come. Entire nations will crumble under the pressure of economic upheaval. I am the only one who knows the future. When you trust Me and play by My rules, I will lead you through this maze of economic chaos and mayhem right into My Kingdom blessings. I am not confined to the world's economic limitations because I am a limitless God!
Living by the standards and practices of the world only leads one down a path of greed, secrecy, dishonesty, and ill-gotten gain. These cannot be operational if you want to see My hand of abundance in your life. They open doors to the thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy everything in your life. I came to bless your life with abundance in every realm. I love to bless My children because it is who I am, but many times you tie My hands by your choices.
Turn from the things of this world and run into My arms of blessing. I will bless the work of your hands and everything you touch will prosper and increase.
Meditate on My words in Psalms 1 and allow them to penetrate into the depths of your heart. Regardless of what happens in the earth, choose to walk in My ways and then you will walk into this promise.
Psalm 1
Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night.
He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
The ungodly are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
For the Lord knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
