What you stated here is so true Brother Joseph; I have learned this over time in my trials and tribulations along with carefully observing the lives of many, and God’s word has always pointed out this truth clearly! Yet we know that there are even denominations of the Christian faith that teach and promote the opposite and that the followers should pray for and seek wealth in material form; that is a falsehood! That will surely not humble anyone and will only distance such a person from God!
Here are some Scriptural verses that are perfect for this insight.
1 Timothy 6:9-10 “But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.”
Luke 12:15 “And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”
Proverbs 23:4 “Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist.”
Proverbs 11:28 “Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will flourish like a green leaf.”
Ecclesiastes 5:10 “He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity.”
Psalm 144:4 “Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.”
Philippians 3:8 “Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ.”
Philippians 3:18-19 “For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things.”
Proverbs 28:20 “A faithful man will abound with blessings, but whoever hastens to be rich will not go unpunished.”
Job 1:21 “And he said, “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.”
Matthew 13:22 “As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.”
John 10:10 “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”
God bless.
