Riches of Righteousness

The Million Dollar Life

By William M. Self, Sr.

 

Don’t focus on getting rich

 Focus on getting Righteous

God has intended for Riches to only

 Be your seed to Righteousness

 

Riches of Righteousness

It is not to make you Rich, but Righteous.

The passion of every believer

should be the Kingdom of God.

That simply means we are passionate for three things…

We have a passion for Righteous, Peace and Joy.

 

 

If these three things are an everyday goal

in our lives, we will have a fulfilled life.

You will have no culture shock walking from this

 earth into heaven when these are in your life.

God is the One who gives us seed to sow.

The resource to produce what we need for life.

  But God does not want you and I to just get by.

He wants to increase our store of seed.

It does not take a very big garden to

feed a family and not a lot of seed.

He is looking for His people to

 break up uncultivated ground.

If we are willing to prepare ground, you won’t need.

 God says He will provide the seed and bring in the harvest.

This requires seeking God not only for how to

meet your needs, but the needs of others.

This is the attitude God blesses.

God is telling us not to be satisfied with

minimum wages and a back yard garden.

He wants to give you the resources to do much more.

His propose is not to make you rich, but righteous.

  

Read what He says…

“Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food

 will also supply and increase your store of seed

and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness.”

God want you to have a large “Harvest of Righteousness”.

God gives riches so we can become more righteous.

  

God goes on to say…

“You will be made rich in every way so that

you can be generous on every occasion, and through

us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.”

So don’t focus on getting Rich, focus on getting Righteous.

God has intended for Riches to only

be your seed to Righteousness.

How righteous are you with the riches you have?

12 Sow for yourselves according to righteousness (uprightness and right standing with God); reap according to mercy and loving-kindness.
