Growing Wealth

Isaiah 48:17 - "Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, 'I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to profit, Who leads you in the way you should go.'"

How do we gauge prosperity? It is a lie to believe that prosperity can be measured in wealth. Many who win the lottery are not really winners because they end up once again as losers having squandered their winnings. No, true prosperity is defined by the power to create wealth. And I am not just talking about money. If we do not have wisdom to prosper in life, we will not have wisdom with money.

God desires to teach us all prosperity through wisdom. With that wisdom, wealth will inevitably come. The secret, when it comes, is to invest it in the lives of others. The law of reciprocity will then create more wisdom and more wealth than we could ever imagine.
