Proverbs 13 – Work Diligently and Honestly

 

Righteous people speak the truth, understanding that what a person says always comes back to them.

 

The principles of God’s economy are opposite the worlds. The Bible says that when you give, you gain; when you hoard, you lose (Luke 12:20). Those who give, open the door for God to give back to them.

 

Dishonest money will not last, but money gathered through honest work will grow. Accumulating financial resources does not require abundance, but faithfulness. A continual investment of small amounts- will multiply with patience, self-discipline, and time.

 

Discipline proves a parent’s love for his or her children.

 

To be wise you must first listen to and rebuke instruction, and learn to take advice and discipline. Walk with the wise and listen to their conversation, and you will become more like them. As you meditate on the Word of God, you walk with the wisest of the wise, so do not neglect the scriptures.

 

Diligent people will work and gain wealth and not get it dishonestly.

 

The rich are often poorer than the poor when it comes to what really counts!
