TODAY'S BIBLE VERSE

He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich. Proverbs 10:4

4. H B P T D W A S H B T H O T D M R

Notes on this verse:

Poverty by itself is not evil, unless it is the product of laziness. This verse is in contrast to the sluggard.

Early to bed, and early to rise; maketh a man healthy, wealthy, and wise. How many times in our life have we all been told this by our parents, teachers, and friends? This “slack hand” above is speaking of a lazy person who will not work. You cannot have money unless you are willing to work to get it.

Get your priorities straight and work hard, and God will bless you abundantly even in this life. Laziness will get you nowhere but to the poorhouse.
