Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest
prosper and be in health, even as thy soul
prospereth.III John 2
I have
been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the
righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging
bread.
Psalm 37:25
The young
lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the
Lord shall not want any good thing.
Psalm
34:10
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not
want.
Psalm 23:1
And all these
blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou
shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God. Blessed
shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the
field. Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the
fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the
increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. Blessed
shall be thy baket and thy store. Blessed shalt thou be
when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou
goest out. The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise up
against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come
out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.
The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy
storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto;
and he shall bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God
giveth thee.
Deuteronomy
28:2-8
And the Lord shalll make thee
plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the
fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the
land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven
to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless
all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many
nations, and thou shalt not borrow. And the Lord shall make
thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above
only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken
unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command
thee this day, to observe and to do
them:
Deuteronomy 28:11-13
Give,
and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down,
and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into
your bosom. for with the same measure that ye mete withal
it shall be measured to you again.
Luke
6:38
Upon the first day of the week let
every one fo you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered
him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
I
Corinthians 16:2
Heal the sick, cleanse the
lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have
received, freely give.
Matthew
10:8
Bring ye all the tithes into the
storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove
me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not
open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a
blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive
it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he
shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall
your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field,
saith the Lord of hosts. And all nations shall call you
blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the Lord
of hosts.
Malachi 3:10-12
But
this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also
sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also
bountifully. Every man according as he purposeth in his
heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity:
for God loveth a cheerful giver. And God is able to make
all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all
sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good
work:
II Corinthians 9:6-8
And
every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or
sister, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or
lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold,
and shall inherit everlasting life.
Matthew
19:29
Do not let this Book of the Law depart
from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you
may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you
will be prosperous and successful.
Joshua
1:8
To the man who pleases him, God gives
wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives
the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over
to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a
chasing after the wind.
Ecclesiastes
2:26
A good man leaves an inheritance for
his children's children, but a sinner's wealth is stored up
for the righteous.
Proverbs
13:22
For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land--a
land with streams and pools of water, with springs flowing
in the valleys and hills;
a land with wheat and barley, vines and fig trees,
pomegranates, olive oil and honey;
a land where bread will not be scarce and you will lack
nothing; a land where the rocks are iron and you can dig
copper out of the hills.
When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the LORD your
God for the good land he has given you.
Be careful that you do not forget the LORD your God,
failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees
that I am giving you this day.
Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build
fine houses and settle down,
and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver
and gold increase and all you have is multiplied,
then your heart will become proud and you will forget the
LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the
land of slavery.
But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you
the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his
covenant, which he swore to your forefathers, as it is
today.
Deuteronomy 8:7-14,18
So do not worry, saying, `What shall we eat?´ or `What
shall we drink?´ or `What shall we wear?´
For the pagans run after all these things, and your
heavenly Father knows that you need them.
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all
these things will be given to you as
well.
Matthew 6:31-33
And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:19
