The Love of Money is the root cause of all evil
Great article on the truth about "The love of money being the root of all evil" and how easily our hearts are corrupted by ambition, gain, greed and lust.
There is a clear distinction between "God's blessing" and the "riches of this world". Don't be a fool and confuse the two. Just because you see a person with a lot of money don't assume they have God's blessing. When Satan tempted Jesus he made it clear that he (Satan) is in control of the commerce and economy of this physical world.
Remember Jesus' words... "You cannot serve (pursue, seek) God and mammon (gain, greed, satisfaction found in money / accumulation of possessions). Jesus also said "scarcely will a rich man enter the Kingdom of Heaven". The Bible also says "Has not God chosen the poor of this world who are rich in faith to inherit salvation?"
Ask God to test your heart just as David prayed to see if the corrupting love of money has taken root in the deep recesses of your heart.
