Devotionals
‘Say, what?’ I don’t always pick up slang. Admittedly, by the time I do, it might be on its way out. I like the aforementioned. ‘Say, what’ seems to go well with a cow-eyed expression and gaping mouth. Let me get this straight; run that past me again.
I’m not sure if I understand.
“One man pretends to be rich, yet has nothing; another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth (Proverbs 13:7 RSV).”
‘Say, what?’ I have to mull that over in my mind.
The first man is all show; he puts on a big act and tries to convince people he’s the big man in town. Likely, he’s fooling only himself. Man #2 pretends to be poor. Maybe he’s thinking people will rob him if they know the truth.
The truth is both men are living a lie. They have another thing in common; they are pretending.
‘Say, what?’ I say, we should not measure a person’s wealth by cash flow. Anyone who has a personal relationship with the LORD Jesus, is privileged to live the abundant life.
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10 RSV).”

God says he wants us to live life to the full but the devil will use those often close to us to stop us living for the purpose and destiny that God has for us.
We daily have to ask God to bless us in abundance in every area of our lives and show the devil he has no place in our world as we have the victory in Jesus Christ to overcome anything.
We have lots to say to Jesus and the Devil in the daily conversations we have.
May God Bless you for posting this article.
