1 Chronicles 29:12


1 Chronicles 29:12
New International Version (NIV)
12 Wealth and honor come from you;
    you are the ruler of all things.
In your hands are strength and power
    to exalt and give strength to all.



If everyone knew that wealth and power comes from the Lord and not man, more people would be successful and more lives would be saved.


The power that God has to give anyone anything at any time is amazing, yet we tend to think of God as someone with human attributes-flaws and all. God is a spirit and is perfect in every way imaginable, however because we today have not seen anyone who could actually fit the idea of perfect we have a hard time thinking of God that way. Unlike man, God will never let you down, never leave you to sit in your own mess and never let you go hungry if you call on Him.


Don’t waste your time trying to compare the acts of man to what God could be. Don’t count on man to get you where you need to be, to get your business started, to give you power to do what you want.


There will never be anyone who is perfect as Jesus is, so we have to have faith that God is all in all and has complete control. Because God is the ruler of all things, there is no need to worry where money to pay your bills this month is going to come from, He controls the flow of wealth to His people.


There is no other financial backer than Jesus to have as your support.
