Proverbs 15:6 (ESV)
In the house of the righteous there is much treasure,
but trouble befalls the income of the wicked.
The accumulation of wealth is something from God. God enables man to gather into his storehouses value and possession. God gives man the ability to work and think and to know how to gather wealth. And, God knows who can handle it and who can't. He also knows who should be "blessed" with it and who should not only be able to save a buck but get kicked in the pants by his own money. When we attempt to get rich and gain possessions on our own and without the purpose of God than we are wicked and we not only get the wealth we get the worry. But, when we allow God to bless us and when He bestows on us some great wealth, then, and then alone, do we get the wealth with no worry. Most men who accumulate wealth also get the trouble and the difficulty that go with it. We need not try to accumulate wealth. But, if God blesses our endeavors we ought to realize it doesn't come with trouble. Those who pursue wealth in the proper manner ... "in the house of the righteous" ... can expect no trouble to follow with it. Those who have wealth in its proper perspective are in the prospective of God and keeps them, and their wealth, safe.
