God is a great restorer and a great provider. He does not forget those who have given even when men have. The Bible also helps us to see that famines are called by God. There is hardly any famine mentioned in the Bible that is not shown as an instrument in the hands of God to get His own children to repent. God does not need to se...
Money and the Bible

Money is to be regarded as a gift from God to be used to the glory of the giver, God. We worship the giver and not the gift.

Power to Make Wealth or the Sweet Influences of Pleiades

January 31st, 201109:32 AM ET

By Olabode Ososami

The Bible is clear in stating that all power belongs to God. But also adds in Deuteronomy that we tend to come to the wrong conclusion, as comforts come, that the power and might was of our hands.
