The Secret to True Success and Wealth

Thy Word...

In the beginning was the Word,

and the Word was with God

and the Word was God

John 1:1

In the eyes of the world George Muller died, 

a very poor man.

In the eyes of God, George Muller's earthen vessel

left behind a legacy overflowing with treasure...

God's Word heard, believed, received and obeyed,

holds the secret to true success, to true riches!

Rom.11:33

Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! 

How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!

Pray we believe and receive His inheritance!

Eph.1:17-21

I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom and revelation, 

so that you may know him better. 

18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order 

that you may know the hope to which he has called you,

 the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 

19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. 

That power is the same as the mighty strength 

20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead 

and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 

21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, 

and every name that is invoked, 

not only in the present age but also in the one to come.

Today's poem was first inspired by 

today's Scripture reading from 2 Cor, 4 & 5

2 Pet. 1:3-4

His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, 

through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,

  4by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, 

that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, 

having escaped the [c]corruption that is in the world through lust.
