Do you think, God will make you rich?

If God wants you to be financially successful or to struggle to make ends meet, thats what will happen if you are seeking His will in your life.

When Paul reminds us of the evil of desiring to be financially wealthy, he is reffering to the neglect of seeking what God wants us to pursue because we are occupied with the pursuit of money.

God HAS made me rich. I have the best wife in the world and two great sons, I’m healthy and I live in a country where I don’t have to worry about practicing my faith. Who can be richer than that?

Now, if He also wants to bless me with money, I’d be OK with that!😃

Peace

Tim

God has also blessed you with great wisdom to pass on to us. You are so right!
 
I can just say that if someone is loving God merely for earthly wealth then maybo one should reevaluate one’s relationship.

Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

God has blessed me with a middle class income so that I can bless those who struggle. I do not want to be rich. I want to struggle a bit. I know it sounds a bit odd, but by struggling here and there it allows me to see how much I need my Father. It strengthens my hope and faith knowing that he will provide for me.

Not at all. Its an attitude and spirit from above. 👍

With riches, comes much more responsibility and stress. That’s why its who God has willed to be wealthy whom He also gives the wisdom and capacity to manage it well.

So mostly here probably believe you shouldn’t get rich if you’re Christian. But it seems that in Judaism, it’s okay to be rich, like God blessed Job with tons livestock and others.

There’s a difference between expecting to get rich because you are a Christian and becoming rich while living the Christian life."
 
Rich in love, mercy, patience, understanding, yes. Some people do have riches, they are blessed with money. Im not rich with money but there have been times when I needed that little extra and out of nowhere I would have it to pay my bills. So im rich in another way!
