The world tells us that if we want to be well respected and happy then we must have a lot of money. This is the wrong beliefs and values of the world.
This is one of Satan’s lies.
God tells us that money does not make a person really happy. “A man’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things which he possesses.” (Luke 12:15)
We can see that many who make wealth their goal in life fall into many foolish and lustful sins.
The Bible tells us, “But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.” (1 Timothy 6:9)
We must learn to be contented with what we have. The Bible says, “Godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and clothing let us with these be content.” (1 Timothy 6:6-8)
God never value anybody by his outward appearance, or by his intelligence, or by his wealth, work, property or social status.
God treats rich people exactly the same way as he treats the poor.
The Bible says, “For God shows no partiality.” (Romans 2:11)
