Ephesians 5:15-16 15 Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity

While in its essence, the Source of Supply is spiritual, it comes to us through material channels, and, in order to have a share in it, it is necessary to earn it. We have to give something in exchange for what we draw from life in the way of supply. We must give in order to receive, and what we give must be something that the world wants or needs.

Psalms 128:2 You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.

The secret of wealth is, then, is to lead a double life, to realize there is unlimited abundance and to live in the consciousness of it, as completely as though no material channels existed, and, at the same time, to work as zealously and be as careful as though there were no such thing as spiritual supply. At the same time we must give the world something that it wants, or otherwise serve in some useful capacity, exercising honesty, integrity, and justice in all our affairs. It is a folly to expect wealth and abundance to drop ready-made in our lap; it must be earned by intelligent and faithful service.
