A faithful person will be richly blessed, but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished.

– Proverbs 28:20

Not every opportunity is from God. Some opportunities look attractive but are only distractions. The Bible warns us against chasing quick riches. Haste often leads to mistakes, disappointment, and loss.

God calls us to faithfulness and patience. A faithful person takes time to think, pray, and seek counsel before making decisions. Quick gains may tempt you, but slow and steady growth is what brings lasting success.

In investing, do not follow trends blindly. Do not be driven by greed. Instead, be guided by wisdom and the Spirit of God. When you build according to God’s purpose, your investments will stand the test of time.

Insight: Rushing into opportunities can lead to loss, but patient and steady decisions bring lasting blessings.

Prayer: Lord, keep me from hasty decisions. Give me wisdom and patience to choose what pleases You. Amen.
