Proverbs 13:7 There is one who makes himself rich, yet has nothing;
And one who makes himself poor, yet has great riches. NKJV

This one requires a lot of thought and prayerful meditation. I looked up a few versions, as the meaning seems to vary to some degree. This may be one where we look at other references in the Word in order to rightly divide the Word of God.

7 One man considers himself rich, yet has nothing [to keep permanently]; another man considers himself poor, yet has great [and indestructible] riches. AMP

7 There is that feigneth himself rich, and hath nothing; there is that maketh himself poor, and hath great wealth. Darby

7 There is who is making himself rich, and hath nothing, Who is making himself poor, and wealth [is] abundant. YLT

The first version posted seems to go with Prov. 11:24, as well Young's Literal Translation. One scatters abroad, sowing seed, and increases. The rich hoards, and has nothing.

Another possible interpretation could be congruent to "as a man thinketh, so is he". For some, there is way more at our disposal than we realize. How wealthy we are, and never tap into it.

Yet, another interpretation could be a person may want to give an impression of being either rich or poor.

I welcome comments on this, just no debates.

Psalm 35:27 Let them shout for joy and be glad, who favor My righteous cause; and let them say continually, ‘Let the LORD be magnified, Who has pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.

It doesn’t say he takes pleasure in the poverty of His servant, but he does take pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.

Deut. 8.18

Go look it up...

Lol...
Don't have to. :p This is one of my favorites. :D This is a very powerful verse of scripture.

He gives us the power to get wealth.
And don't you forget it! ^_^

I want them typed out for those who don't know them so they can come onto this thread and meditate on the Word. That's why. Not to make you have to work hard, Zzub. Of course, you can always copy and paste. :D

Ephesians 3:20
Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]

2Cor. 9:6 ¶ But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

2Cor. 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

2 Corinthians 9:7 Let each one [give] as he has made up his own mind and purposed in his heart, not reluctantly or sorrowfully or under compulsion, for God loves (He takes pleasure in, prizes above other things, and is unwilling to abandon or to do without) a cheerful (joyous, "prompt to do it") giver [whose heart is in his giving].

3Jn 1:2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

Psa 1:1 Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
Psa 1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
Psa 1:3 He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.

1 Chronicles 22:12 Only may the Lord give you wisdom and understanding as you are put in charge of Israel, that you may keep the law of the Lord your God.

13 Then you will prosper if you are careful to keep and fulfill the statutes and ordinances with which the Lord charged Moses concerning Israel. Be strong and of good courage. Dread not and fear not; be not dismayed.

Here's the "CindyisHis paraphrase" applicable to the new covenant believer.

Receive wisdom and understanding from the Lord.

Keep the two commandments Jesus gave us to the love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and love our neighbor as ourselves.

Do what He has assigned you to do.

Do not fear, but be of good courage.

You will prosper!

He who spared not His own Son but gave Him up for us., how will He not with Him also give us all things to richly enjoy. - 1 corinth. 3:21-22
Thank you, opljar, and welcome to CF! :wave:

You know, I thought this verse was in Romans 8, somewhere along in 32 or so. It's a great one! I'll have to check on where it is. Maybe you're right! - 1 Cor. 3.

i had done a quick google on the phrase and grabbed the first link that had it.. and somehow picked the wrong text reference. :)

thanks for picking up on that.

its embarrassing. :doh: i try to be accurate. this makes the second mistake i've made.

i need to take the time to check and recheck before i type something. last time i made a mistake on a thread, i got locked out of it.

thanks again.
