The Bible is a book that contains lessons for every area of life, including how we invest our money. God not only gave Solomon wisdom, He gave him more riches and possessions than any king before or after him (2 Chronicles 1:12). God used Solomon, the human author of Ecclesiastes, to teach us timeless lessons for how to view the financial markets.

He is the one we must turn to for the greatest investment advice.Take-Home Message: I must follow God’s investment advice, or I will pay the price.A Biblical Definition of Investment: The allocation of resources, whether time, money, or talents, with the expectation of a future return or benefit.God’s Investment Advice • Give it Time (1) • Diversify (2) • Don’t Delay (3-4) • Work Diligently (5-6)What Keeps Me from Following God’s Investment Advice? • Impatience (1) • Too Much Risk (2) • Too Much Caution (3-4) • Negligence (5-6)
