They are hungry but are never satisfied!

The Apostle Paul once said that he was content whether or not he had plenty or little. The key to Paul’s contentment was that he knew that God was his provider, and that he had defeated the spirit of greed. It is a good thing to want to do the best you can, and to work towards higher education and better salaries. However, at the end of the day, the righteous are content and grateful for what God has provided for them. There might be seasons where you might have more, or even less, but when you appreciate what God has provided for you, you will be able to be at peace, and sleep peacefully. The wicked are never satisfied. They always want more, and it will never be enough. This is fleshly, and does not please God. Determine today to be appreciative and thankful, and your soul will be satisfied in this lifetime, and you will please the heart of God!

Proverbs 13:25 – The righteous eats to the satisfying of his soul, but the stomach of the wicked shall be in want.

The Blessing of the Lord maketh rich!

There are many that chase riches, and employ any means necessary to do so. They get to enjoy their riches for a season. However, their lack of integrity catches up to them sooner or later and they end up paying too high of a price for their temporary prosperity. However, the righteous take steps to obey God’s way of doing business and trade. They might not look like they are prospering, but little by little they will increase. In time they have more than enough, and they can sleep at night in peace. Not so with the wicked. They are constantly worried that someone is going to take their riches away. They get so consumed by their riches, that they ultimately won’t enjoy them. Don’t chase after riches. Work honestly and save with integrity. God will honor your obedience and wisdom, and you will prosper and enjoy it with peace and joy!

Proverbs 10:22 – The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow with it.
