He is Faithful Written by Dawid Fourie
Jer 9:23 Thus says the Lord: Let not the wise and skillful person glory and boast in his wisdom and skill; let not the mighty and powerful person glory and boast in his strength and power; let not the person who is rich [in physical gratification and earthly wealth] glory and boast in his [temporal satisfactions and earthly] riches;
Jer 9:24 But let him who glories glory in this: that he understands and knows Me [personally and practically, directly discerning and recognizing My character], that I am the Lord, Who practices loving-kindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth, for in these things I delight, says the Lord.
In Psa 91:14 God says that He will lift you up because you knows and understands the meaning of His name. In 1 Cor 1:8 says He will establish you to the end and verse 9 says that He is faithful.
Many people when they strike it “lucky” or get a fortune or suddenly is blessed with many money tend to forget God. But in their ignorance they have made a pledge unto God. When they are blessed and showered with wealth they boost in their wisdom and skill, and they forget God.
Remember that God is the source of all wisdom, so is He also the owner of all wealth – it all belongs to Him. But what you should do with it at the end when the Lord blessed you with wealth is to remember that you have a relationship with Him.
It was only your relationship in the beginning that made God blessed you. Because you know Him, love Him, and when you asked for wealth, you did it as if you presented Jesus Christ and all that He is, and the Father of glory blessed you. So to honor God and be His joy and delight, you should keep up your relationship with Him.
Your only glory in your wealth should be that you know the character, the nature, the essence of Life Light Love Mercy and Grace – God Himself. By glory in that is more than all the wisdom you have obtained.
