TOPIC: THE SECRET OF GODLY WEALTH
SCRIPTURE: Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. Matthew 6:33 (New Living Translation).
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Addiction to God is a secret of wealthy Godly men.
The Scripture makes it clear that prosperity is a tool for Kingdom advancement. The Scripture gave account of many Godly men who were equipped with supernatural abundance for the advancement of the Kingdom of God.
One of such men was Isaac. Therefore, we shall be looking at the personality and prosperity of Isaac in our study today.
Isaac, the son of Abraham, was the wealthiest person in his generation. He came to a point where he became wealthier and mightier than the whole nation of Philistine, until the Philistines and Abimelech, their king, told him to go away from them (Genesis 26:12-16).
Abimelech, the king of the Philistines seemed to have told Isaac, “You are intimidating us. You are a person and we are a nation, but you are bigger than all of us. Just leave us alone. Go away from us.” Isaac was so prosperous or wealthy that a whole nation envied him.
Now, what was the secret of Isaac’s wealth?
It is addiction to God! Addiction to God is a secret of wealthy Godly men.

The Bible makes it clear that Isaac went to meditate in the field at the evening time in Genesis 26:24-63. He sat before Jehovah and was meditating.
Obviously, there was no Bible at that time. So, he probably meditated on the historical writings about Adam, Noah and Abraham. He must have been meditating on the Lord God of Abraham, the One who turned his father, Abraham from being a nonentity to a celebrity. He must have been meditating on the God who took his father from the background to the forefront, the One who changed his father from an outstanding failure to a generational success. Isaac was deeply buried in meditation. But when he lifted up his eyes, he saw camels coming. They were the camels carrying Rebecca, his future wife.
Beloved, what lesson can we learn from here? When you bury yourself in the Word of God in meditation, your life will change because you will literally see something, something that can spark a revolution in your life.
Remember this: Addiction to God is a secret of Godly wealthy men.
