The nefarious founder of the World Economic Forum, elitist Klaus Schwab, looking superciliously down on the world's masses, proclaims, "You will own nothing and be happy." To the globalists and their deceived sycophants, collectivist state intervention is the rule, with the goal of the disappearance of all private property by 2030. The elite plan to control all the wealth, is an attempt to usurp Almighty God's (not government's) sole prerogative to grant prosperity (Psalm 1:1; Ecclesiastes 7:14). God prospered Joseph (Genesis 39:1-5) just as He had prospered Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. God prospered Israel, giving them a land figuratively flowing with milk and honey (Deuteronomy 8:7). Sadly, our forebears forgot the source of wealth and prosperity, thinking it was a result of their effort exclusively. Prosperity, however, is not always an emblem of God's approval. In fact, God will not prosper us if we are threatened with spiritual damage, insulating us from seeking His kingdom. When wealth is hoarded, it has already become our God as materialism became the central flaw of the Laodiceans. James warns us that if pleasure is our aim, pleasing ourselves instead of pleasing God, we will have endless problems and continuous stress. Covetousness 1.) sets people against one another, promoting rivalry and competition, 2.) cuts the effectiveness of prayer, and 3.) turns one inward producing perpetual anxiety. The apostle Paul, using a tent and a permanent building, implied that our bodies last long enough to prepare us for eternal life as a member of God's family (II Corinthians 5:1-5). We are only pilgrims passing on through to our ultimate spiritual destination. God expects our reasonable sacrifice (Romans 12:1-2) being faithful stewards of the spiritual and physical gifts He has entrusted to us to serve our spiritual siblings and glorify Him.
