DAY 11 — WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11
GOD GIVES POWER TO PRODUCE WEALTH
Old Testament Reading: Deuteronomy 8:11–18
New Testament Reading: 2 Corinthians 9:6–11
Memory Verse: Deuteronomy 8:18
WORDSPIRATION
God is the ultimate source of our lives, abilities, opportunities, and resources. Deuteronomy 8 reminds Israel not to forget the Lord when they enter a season of abundance.
The warning is particularly important because prosperity can tempt people to become proud or self-sufficient. Moses cautioned Israel against claiming that their wealth resulted entirely from their own strength.
God's provision does not eliminate human responsibility. The ability to produce wealth must be accompanied by knowledge, discipline, ethical work, wise decisions, and responsible stewardship.
In 2 Corinthians 9, Paul connects God's provision with generosity. The resources entrusted to believers should enable thanksgiving, service, and practical support for others.
This November, ask God to strengthen your productive abilities. Develop useful skills, recognise legitimate opportunities, manage your finances wisely, and resist dishonest shortcuts. The purpose of increase is not simply possession but responsible stewardship and greater usefulness.
