WEALTH, RICHES & RIGHTEOUSNESS

Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man  

that feareth the LORD, that delighteth  

greatly in his commandments. His  

seed shall be mighty upon earth: the  

generation of the upright shall be  

blessed. Wealth and riches shall be  

in his house: and his righteousness  

endureth for ever (Psalm 112:1-3).

Notice what the Bible says: the one who reveres the  

Lord and delights greatly in His Word is blessed.  And not only that, wealth and riches shall be in his house,  and his righteousness endures forever. Wealth, riches and  righteousness are the heritage of the one who belongs to  Christ.  

This completely debunks the erroneous belief that  if you’re rich you can’t be righteous. God has made His  children rich through Christ. The lives of many Christians  may somewhat be in antithesis with this, but it doesn’t  negate God’s truth.  

Those of us who have accepted His Word as it is have  a different reality. In Christ we have wealth, riches and righteousness. It’s the life God has given us in Him.

The bane of many around the world today is ignorance;  many have never been accurately taught the Word of God.  Therefore, they don’t know how to apply it in order to walk  in the reality of their glorious inheritance in Christ.  

Make up your mind that you’re going to walk in the  light of God’s Word as it relates to your prosperity in Christ.  Even if you really didn’t care about being rich, He ordained  that you should be able to make others rich. Well said the  Apostle Paul, “As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as  poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and  yet possessing all things” (2 Corinthians 6:10). 

 Locate yourself in the plans and purposes of God  so you can have His will fulfilled in your life. He said, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest  prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth”  (3 John 1:2). 

PRAYER 

Dear Father, I thank you for your Word of truth about my  wealth, riches and righteousness. As I walk in the light  of your Word and apply its principles, the blessings of  the Kingdom are manifested in my life; I walk in financial  abundance and manifest fruits of righteousness, in  Jesus’ Name. Amen.
