“The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” – Revelation 11:11 (ESV)
The blessing of the Lord is what you need. Within the blessing of the Lord, you will have more than enough and to spare. You must always ask yourself “Why am I working? What do I want to achieve? Do I want to pile up riches so that I can stare at them and praise myself ?”
“How much can I eat? What will I do with all these things I am trying to acquire? What price do I have to pay to have all these riches? Am I going to sacrifice my very life to be rich? Am I going to throw away God so that I can have riches? Do I want to join the multitudes who were not able to enter the kingdom of Heaven because of money? Do I want to be a rich fool, or do I want to be a blessed person?”

You must labour to be blessed because the blessings of the Lord make you rich and there is no sorrow added to it. There are reasons why God’s word teaches us not to labour to be rich. Riches have several characteristics that make them a dangerous goal for anyone. Here are some of the clear biblical warnings about the nature of riches and why they must not be your life’s vision.
Such is the fate of all who are greedy for money; it robs them of life. Proverbs 1:19, NLT
Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will flourish like a green leaf. Proverbs 11:28, ESV
He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity. Ecclesiastes 5:10, ESV
