Is this for me too? "The Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand."

“I need more money.”

“Why?”

“So I can provide for my family, pay my bills, clear my debts, brighten my testimony, and give to the kingdom.”

“What about getting wealth and stuff?”

“Give me neither poverty nor riches,” (Proverbs 30:8).

I think of that verse fragment fairly often.

I thought of it again this morning when I read this:

The Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand. -Genesis 39:3

Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee. -Psalm 128:1,2

I forgot.

I thought in my heart the way I wasn’t supposed to.

I was wrong.

I have repented.

I have learned…again…that pride flattens.

Now I ask Him repeatedly to “build the house” (Psalm 127:1).

Don’t make my mistake.

And learn these lessons: Do This to Minimize Failure.

God bless you and prosper you…as He measures prosperity.
