Honor the Lord
with your wealth and with the
firstfruits of all your produce;
(Proverbs 3:9)

wise man's dwelling, but a foolish

the borrower is the slave of the
lender.

treasures on earth, where moth and

break in and steal, but lay up for
yourselves treasures in heaven,
where neither moth nor rust
destroys and where thieves do not
break in and steal. For where your
treasure is, there your heart will
be also.
(Matthew 6:19-21)

Whatever you do, work heartily, as
for the Lord and not for men,
(Colossians 3:23)

For the love of money is a root of
all kinds of evils. It is through
this craving that some have
wandered away from the faith and
pierced themselves with many
pangs.
(1 Timothy 6:10)
ESV
As for the rich in this present
age, charge them not to be
haughty, nor to set their hopes on
the uncertainty of riches, but on
God, who richly provides us with
everything to enjoy. They are to
do good, to be rich in good works,
to be generous and ready to share,
thus storing up treasure for
themselves as a good foundation
for the future, so that they may
take hold of that which is truly
life.
(1 Timothy 6:17-19)
ESV
Slaves are to be submissive to
their own masters in everything;
they are to be well-pleasing, not
argumentative,

If any of you lacks wisdom, let
him ask God, who gives generously
to all without reproach, and it
will be given him.
(James 1:5)
ESV
As each has received a gift, use
it to serve one another, as good
stewards of God's varied grace:
(1 Peter 4:10)
ESV
Do not love the world or the
things in the world. If anyone
loves the world, the love of the
Father is not in him. For all that
is in the world—the desires of the
flesh and the desires of the eyes
and pride in possessions—is not
from the Father but is from the
world. And the world is passing
away along with its desires, but
whoever does the will of God
abides forever.
(1 John 2:15-17)
ESV
