Deuteronomy 15:5 Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.
But again, the devil makes the offer of wealth, but on very different terms. Persons would have to bow down first by adopting his ways and means and sure enough, persons could get rich. In the process they may employ slaves and sex workers, and like El Chapo, they may sell drugs, and mass produce drug addicts all over the world, but at the end of the day they will get rich…Acts 16: 16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying.
Micah 3: 11 The heads thereof judge for reward and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the Lord, and say, is not the Lord among us? none evil can come upon us…. And then there is the method of hush money, by which some persons have become very wealthy as they are paid huge sums to keep quiet and cover up some evil deed that the perpetrator in question will much prefer to stay out of public view.
Hush money has occurred quite often in the history of our planet, and it continues to this day, to be a source of wealth for many persons. Thus, folks will sell their souls and also their birthright, if the price is right….. Matthew 28:12 And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers. 13 Saying, say you, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.
Malachi 3: 10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
