Proverbs 23:4-5

Do not wear yourself out to become rich; be wise enough to restrain yourself. When you gaze upon riches, they are gone, for they surely make wings for themselves, and fly off into the sky like an eagle!

Throughout scripture it is made abundantly clear that our main goal in life should not be generating wealth for ourselves. We are unable to guarantee riches by our own effort, only God is sure. We can seek riches, and we may find them, but all is subject to the sovereign authority of the Most High God. Rest assured, those riches will never fully satisfy the desires God has laid upon your heart. Let your daily life be filled with trust and dependence upon the Lord! Only then will you find true riches in Him, and those riches never run out. Ephesians 2:6-7 says, “And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus.”
