GOD’S VIEW OF A RICH MAN

The Blessed State of the Righteous

Psalm 112 

​Praise the Lord!
Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, Who delights greatly in His commandments. 2 His descendants will be mighty on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed.  3 Wealth and riches will be in his house, And his righteousness endures forever.  4 Unto the upright there rises light in the darkness; He is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.  5 A good man deals graciously and lends; He will guide his affairs with discretion.  6 Surely he will never be shaken; The righteous will be in everlasting remembrance.  7 He will not be afraid of evil tidings; His heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.  8 His heart is established; He will not be afraid, Until he sees his desire upon his enemies.  9 He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever; His horn will be exalted with honor.  10 The wicked will see it and be grieved; He will gnash his teeth and melt away; The desire of the wicked shall perish.
 
The Cheerful Giver

2 Corinthians 9:6-8  
6 But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows [a]bountifully will also reap [b]bountifully. 7 So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of [c]necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.
 
Proverbs 10:22AMPC  The blessing of the Lord—it makes [truly] rich, and He adds no sorrow with it [neither does toiling increase it].
