Even an atheist can have fancy cars and a private plane. I am not after the Bill Gates blessing; rather, I am seeking after Him and what pleases Him. From this position we have favor from God that empowers us to prosper. This prosperity is not just the prosperity that some unbelievers have. I am talking about a prosperity that lasts forever (3 John 1:2; 1 Timothy 4:7–8).
*Disclaimer: I am not saying wealth, nice cars, and private planes are wrong. I am saying our priorities must be right. Wealth in the hands of a changed heart is a powerful tool for Christ. (Deuteronomy 8:18)*
