“And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.”
Confession:
I remember the LORD my God.
The Lord my God gives me power to get wealth.
The wealth I get is for the establishing of God’s covenant.
Prayer:
Thank you Lord for all things. I remember you, and all you have done for me. Thanks for giving me power to get wealth. Let your covenant be established through my life also, and the lives of my friends and associates. Amen.
Personal Comments:
Once I really have an abundance of wealth I had better remember that it was God who was with me to get it in the first place, and not my own cleverness. Without God’s blessing it just doesn’t work. And I need to remember what this money is for. Its about souls and Jesus.
Theological Comments:
Reacting against verses like this is the response of people who only understand a selfish motivation for having wealth. Wealth is a kind of power, if it is used selfishly it will bring grief in the end. Lets just get this great commission thing finished so we can all enjoy the presence of the LORD in heaven and leave the devil and all his rotten demons behind forever. Amen. For that its going to take money, but not only money. It will take first of all the obedience to the Spirit of God.
