PROVERBS ON MONEY

July 21, 2019

Introduction

[24] One gives freely, yet grows all the richer;  another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want. [25] Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered. [28] Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will flourish like a green leaf. 

1. How to make money 

Work hard

A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.

Proverbs 10:4

Also see Proverbs 14:23, 20:13

Build it slowly

Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it

Proverbs 13:11

Also see Proverbs 20:21, 20:25

Build it honestly

Whoever is greedy for unjust gain troubles his own household, but he who hates bribes will live.

Proverbs 15:27

Also see Proverbs 19:22, 10:16

2. How to navigate money

Money will betray you

Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. 
When your eyes light on it,
 it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, 
flying like an eagle toward heaven

Proverbs 23:4-5

Money will not protect you

Riches do not profit in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death

Proverbs 11:4

A rich man’s wealth is his strong city, and like a high wall in his imagination

Proverbs 18:11

3. How to use money

One gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want. Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered.

Proverbs 11:24-25

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.

2 Corinthians 8:9

Conclusion

Give yourself to the Lord

Give yourself to the Community

Live modestly

 [8] …give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is needful for me, [9] lest I be full and deny you and say, “Who is the LORD?” or lest I be poor and steal and profane the name of my God. 

Proverbs 30:8-9
