Day nine in my life of wealth

To become materially wealthy, you have make sure you follow the biblical principles for doing so. I am beginning to try and establish those principles from a reformed perspective.
  1. The first principle is to accumulate wealth little by little. This means not trying the get-rich-quick systems and not by taking your focus off God.

The book of Proverbs contain many principles.

Day eight of my life of wealth

The beauty placing the spiritual before the material in the quest for wealth, is that one can proceed at a more leisurely pace, and one can take time out if life throws you a curve ball.


We can thank God for His creation.

Day seven of my search for wealth

Day seven finds me implementing my own day of rest from blogging. It seems as if when the blog entry is too short that you can't do a spell check. At the end it turned out to be my connection.

The road to wealth is paved with many obstacles

Day six of my life of wealth

True wealth is when you have been spiritually blessed by God and that is irrespective of your material status. If you have an abundance of material possession, but lack God's gift of faith then you are poor and destitute. Only the God of the bible is truly an object of value. See quote below.

Life has a value only when it something valuable as its object. George Hegel

Day five of my life of Wealth

Today being Sunday, I am told in the bible that I am already wealthy. I have been given all the blessings in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, the Son of the living God. I personally do not buy into the thinking that be a Christian is to be poor. Money is only a tool with which to worship God.

Day three of my life of wealth

Today I am reminded that wealth is not just about money, but about a fulfilled life. Money must not get in the way of contentment. A life dedicated to the God of the bible is the way to true fulfillment.

Quote of the Day;
The first and best victory is to conquer self.

Day two of my life of wealth

I have discovered that if you are married then it is important that your wife shares the same belief system as yourself. Without this your chance of success is curtailed. If she can share in the same goals it is even better.

Quote for the day;
Success come before work only in the dictionary. Unknown

Start of my life of Wealth

I have waited for others to improve my life and now will set up my own system of wealth creation, with God's help.

A great attitude always precedes a great performance.
