Bible Question: what Does balance Prosperity mean |
Bible Answer: Hello Big-Momma, The exact words, "balance Prosperity" aren't found in scripture, so I can't answer from that perspective. Is this something you've either heard or are taught at your church? I believe in leading a balanced-life as it were. I believe this example is found in Phil. 4:12, "I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need." However, the focus of scripture is Christ. As Paul admonishes in Rom. 8:29, the believer is to be "...conformed to the image of His Son..." (NASB) This does not mean we can't have monetary success or acheivement, but that is not our goal! I hope this helps, BradK |
