Righteousness delivers from death
The Lord doesn't let the righteous go hungry
Diligent hands bring wealth
Blessings crown the head of the righteous
In light of James 3:10, our speech ought to be a fountain of life, loving, few in number, choice silver, nourishing others...
Integrity will bring about well-being in the day of wrath.
Dishonesty is an abomination to the Lord. People of a perverse heart are detested by God.
5 principles for use of money (11:24-28)
Give freely
Be generous
Don't hoard
Be willing to sell
Don't trust in your riches
Consider the outcome of their way of life (Heb 13:7) The righteous will end up in a place of benefit and blessing, the unrighteous will come to destruction.
As wise people, we will be ready to hear and heed God's Word, we will love others and live accordingly.
