But you shall [earnestly] remember the Lord your God, for it is He Who gives you power to get wealth ... Deuteronomy 8:18 AMPC
One of the purposes of building a business is wealth creation. God often uses a business as the mechanism for accomplishing His purpose to give the power to get wealth to His children. Too often, however, once we start to put that power to work and it starts to generate wealth, many people then completely forget the God who made it all happen.
More importantly, many do not even know why He made it happen in the first place. They act as though God gives us wealth for its own sake but He doesn't. The reason He gave the power to get wealth was to establish His covenant - the covenant He made to Abraham saying; “And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you [with abundant increase of favors] and make your name famous and distinguished, and you will be a blessing [dispensing good to others].” (Genesis 12:2 AMPC)
The primary reason God makes us wealthy, famous, and distinguished is not so that we can become celebrities, it is so that we can be a blessing to other people. This He makes clear in the parable of the rich man whose land yielded a good harvest, and he set about giving himself a complete makeover. The Bible records that his soul was required of him that night because he was “not rich towards God” (Luke 12:21).
God's promise is that He will bless the works of our hands and we can take that promise to the bank - that God will bless our business is not in doubt. What is not certain is whether we will be good stewards of God's blessing. According to Deuteronomy 8:11-18, there is a real risk that once you start to get wealthy, you can start to feel like it was your acumen (and not God) that made it happen. That is the real danger!
And so, this final week of the devotions is focused on helping us to gain a godly perspective on money.
