S3E05 - A Proverb on WEALTH - "Àtètèdáyé ò kan tọrọ̀; Ọlọ́run ní ńṣe orí owó"

PROVERB CONSIDERED: “Àtètèdáyé ò kan tọrọ̀; Ọlọ́run ní ńṣe orí owó.” INTERPRETATION: "Primogeniture (the state of being the firstborn child) has nothing to do with wealth; it is God Who assigns wealth to (people's) destinies." MEANING & BIBLICAL APPLICATION: The proverb counsels against seeking riches by all means rather than fundamentally acknowledging the sovereignty of God in the determination of who gets 'wealthy' in life. This was discussed vis-a-vis our roles as God's children in wealth creation.  Scripture Cited include: ✥ 2 Corinthians 9:8 NKJV says "And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work." ✥ Matthew 26:11 NIV says "The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have me." ✥ Philemon 1:6 AMP says "I pray that the sharing of your faith may become effective and powerful because of your accurate knowledge of every good thing which is ours in Christ." ✥ Deuteronomy 8:18 NKJV says "And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day."
