The Power to Get Wealth

Deut 8 : 18
“And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth..."

Sometime we tend to forget when we are wealthy enough. That's why the first part of this verse tells us that we shall remember our God.
The second part teach us to not to use our own power in pursuing wealth, prosperity, success. It is given to us by God. So, put God in your plan.

Let's bring it up a bit.
"And you shall remember that the LORD your God led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not" ~ Deut 8 : 2
Wilderness here teach us to hang on to God, to trust Him. How many of us can do that if we were put in wilderness? Not for even forty hours?
The Israelite shows us how tough it is to keep God commandment when they are in the wilderness. How many faithful man can be found within them through all those years. Yet some of them did make it through the promised land. By what? By faith!

When we are in wilderness of our life, the devil will come and tempt us.
Check out Mat 4 when Jesus is tempted. The devil attacks three different aspects of our life, just like he did to Jesus:
1. Daily needs
2. Mind
3. Instance

~ Remember to hang on & keep your faith! For nothing is too hard ~
