‭I Timothy‬ ‭6‬:‭17 Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. 18Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share,

A religious or a deceived mind would magnify verse 17 which instructs those who have a lot of money not to trust in uncertain riches. This verse would be justification on why it’s unnecessary to receive riches, however, we must continue reading. Verse 18 instructs the rich to do good works, be ready to give, and be willing to share.

Question: How can the Kingdom of God be advanced without someone doing good works? How can the homeless eat if someone is not ready to give or willing to share? Someone has to be rich or else the Word of God would not have given instructions to the rich. If someone has to be rich, why not let it be you?

For years, people have criticized people in the body of Christ for being wealthy but, why? Jesus sacrificed Himself so that we can be redeemed from poverty and be entitled to the blessing of Abraham (Galatians 3:14). Is it their fault they are maximizing on a promise of God?

Just like any good Father, God desires for His children to have the best. God also desires the advancement of His Kingdom but, we can only do so much with limited or no resources. People of God, it’s okay to desire wealth (Psalm 112:1-3). It’s a promise of God and we (the believers) are entitled to it.

Receive your wealth.
