corrupted rich vs godly rich (part 1)

Proverbs 10:22
The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow with it.

Dr AR Bernard said that if one does not fear GOd, one would try to acheive fame, money and power by wrong means.... As christians, our duty is to put God first in everythign and pray and let GOd lead us into plans that would ultimately bring God's blessings... Juz like how God blessed Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Solomon and all the heroes of faith, the same God wants to bless you the same way.... However God's method is not the same as the world's method... the world engages in corrupted means such as exploitation, stealing, lying, hypocrisy, cheating, disloyalty and so forth to get things for themselves... Let us always remember not to go against our value system and become corruptedly rich in engaging in expolitation and sin... Lets trust God and do things God's way and see His blessings and His favor.... God's way....

James 5:2
Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten.

James 5:4
Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.
