God's Economy

Deuteronomy 8:17-20

God is faithful in his covenant to Israel that He made in Genesis. Because this speaks to God’s glory, Moses wants to remind his audience to not be prideful about their wealth, for everything they have was God’s first. Moses’ plea to his audience is this: to glorify God with the wealth He has allowed you to receive, whatever that wealth may look like.

Questions for further thought:
1. In what ways have you been prideful about your wealth?

2. How can you use your material wealth to give God glory?

Challenge: Look for opportunities to use your possessions in ways that remind you of the Creator.
