"Do
not wear yourself out to
get rich;
have the wisdom to show restraint. Cast but a glance at riches, and
they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky
like an eagle." Proverbs
23:4-5
"Even from the days of your fathers
you are gone away from my ordinances, and have not kept them. Return to
me, and I will return to you, said the LORD of hosts. But you said,
Wherein shall we return? Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed me.
But you say, Wherein have we robbed you? In tithes and offerings. You
are cursed with a curse: for you have robbed me, even this whole
nation. Bring you all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be
meat in my house, and prove me now herewith, said 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." Malachi 3:7-10
"But
this I say, He which sows sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he
which sows bountifully shall reap also bountifully. Every man according
as he purposes in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of
necessity: for God loves a cheerful giver"
2 Corinthians 9:6-7
"I know how to live on
almost
nothing or
with everything. I have learned the secret of contentment in every
situation, whether it be a full stomach or hunger, plenty or want; for
I can do everything God asks me to with the help of Christ who gives me
the strength and power." Philippians
4:12-13
"Command those who are rich
in this
present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which
is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us
with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, to be rich
in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way
they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the
coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life."
1 Timothy
6:17-19
"Let
your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such
things as you have: for he has said, I will never leave you, nor
forsake you."
Hebrews 13:5
