"The poor man uses entreaties,
But the rich answers roughly."
God says how rough it is going to be for the rich to make it into heaven. (Ephesians 6:5-9) " Bondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as to Christ; not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, with goodwill doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men, knowing that whatever good anyone does, he will receive the same from the Lord, whether he is a slave or free.
And you, masters, do the same things to them, giving up threatening, knowing that your own Master also is in heaven, and there is no partiality with Him." However, in todays times our masters are of the world. And we the bondservants try to emulate them. God is not at all pleased with these spirits. Pride, ego, and self-righteousness have taken over our spirits and we must kill it. Before it kills us. Everyone is complaining, bosses about their employees, employees about their bosses. No one feels they are receiving their share, nor their recognition in life. So confusion is everywhere. Part of verse 23 says, "The poor man uses entreaties" Jesus says, He became poor that we might become rich. A rich King came down from glory, to show the poor how they might become rich. The only way we are ever going to obtain scripture, and receive blessings. We must humble ourselves to the Word of God. (Mark 4:11-12) " And He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables, so that Seeing they may see and not perceive, And hearing they may hear and not understand; Lest they should turn, And their sins be forgiven them.’” We must learn and walk the word out of love for God and each other. This is the only way to unlock the mystery. (1Corinthians 13:1-3) "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing." God has given us the book to life and riches, and how to obtain it. The rich will keep us poor. Because they do not base their lives or companies on the Word of God. (Proverbs 18:11) "The rich man’s wealth is his strong city, And like a high wall in his own esteem." The poor who are in the Word of God, think matters through. They humble themselves in word and to the power, that they might move all obstacles and mountains out of their way. Get rich
Blessings to all who lets humility make them rich,
(2 Corinthians 8:8-9) "I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others. 9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich."
