Let’s read Proverbs 22:7 , Proverbs 24:5 , Proverbs 2:10b & Romans 3:23-24, Romans 5:1-2 & 2 Corinthians 12:9 in tandem
“The RICH rule over the poor,and the borrower is slave to the lender”
“A WISE man is full of strength, and a man of KNOWLEDGE enhances his might”
“…KNOWLEDGE will be pleasant to your SOUL”
Currency for the BODY – Money in general is the currency for the body. Money empowers man to satisfy his bodily needs, wants and desires. The RICH in money always supersede the POOR in money as far as the temporary bodily satisfactions are concerned.
Currency for the SOUL – Wisdom, Knowledge & Understanding are the currencies for the soul. These currencies empower man to satisfy his soulish/mental needs, wants and desires. Human intellect and emotions would be non-existent without these currencies of the soul. The RICH in Wisdom, Knowledge & Understanding always supersede the POOR in Wisdom, Knowledge & Understanding as far as the soulish/mental satisfactions are concerned.
Currency for the SPIRIT – Grace and Truth are the ultimate of all currencies. These are spiritual currencies. TRUTH brings freedom (John 8:32) and GRACE bestows the all-sufficient empowerment (2 Corinthians 12:9). GRACE & TRUTH are personified exclusively in and through JESUS CHRIST alone (John 1:14&17). The RICH in Grace & Truth always supersede the POOR in Grace & Truth as far as the spiritual standard is concerned. When you first seek the spiritual kingdom of God and become richer and richer in its currencies (Grace & Truth), everything else that is NEEDED, WILL be added unto you (Matthew 6:33).
Are you chasing the spiritual currencies or carnal/soulish currencies? Are you seeking to be spiritually rich or otherwise?
