Deuteronomy 8: 18
2 Corinthians 9:7-12
Proverbs 10:22
Deuteronomy 28:1-14
Also read about all that God gave and did for Abraham. For we are part of his children.. because of our faith in Christ.

The Blessing of Abraham was for a reason, and it was to give to those who didn't have. It was not just for himself.
The body of Christ needs finances in order to send those who are called to preach forth to the world. And we also need finances to help those whom need to get out of poverty. As we bless others (by God's leading) He will make sure to give back to us. But one has to prosper in their spirit (3 John 2) by meditating on Scripture first (Romans 10:17) and then one will prosper outwardly as long as they are following God's ways.

Blessings

Video is expensive to make and produce.
Think about what that means before you watch any video.

I don’t think riches are bad, but it is good to understand also these:

"Don't lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don't break through and steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Matt. 6:19-21

Sell that which you have, and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don't grow old, a treasure in the heavens that doesn't fail, where no thief approaches, neither moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Luke 12:33-34

No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You can't serve both God and Mammon.
Matt. 6:24

For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
Matt. 16:25-26

Thank you all for the feedback! So it sounds like you are all in agreement that the argument put forth in this video is good and accurate and not some sort of prosperity heresy? It means rich people in the bible.
I would think it depends on how one uses wealth.
I don't think Christ desires Christians to be materially poor, but rather rich in spirit, knowledge and love that is of our Lord Jesus Christ and God the Father

Pro 22:2
The rich and the poor have this in common,
The LORD is the maker of them all.

Hag 1:6
“You have sown much, and bring in little;
You eat, but do not have enough; You drink, but you are not filled with drink;
You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm;
And he who earns wages, Earns wages to put into a bag with holes.”


2Co 8:9
For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor,
that you, through His poverty, might become rich.


Rev 3:
14 To the Messenger of the Assembly in Laodicea write!

17 “Because you say, ‘I am rich! have become wealthy, and have need of nothing'—
and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked
