“In whatever he does, he prospers.” (Psalm 1:3)
Just a few ways the righteous prosper:
“He will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:6
He will give you “length of days…and peace.” (Proverbs 3:2)
“You will find favor and good repute in the sight of God and man.” (Proverbs 3:4)
“Healing…and refreshment” (Proverbs 3:8) are yours.
Physical prosperity by way of “barns…filled.” (Proverbs 3:10) This is not Prosperity Gospel. The Christian will have trials and “Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.” (2 Timothy 3:12)
And some of the difficulty comes from God for our good through “trials…testing of your faith produces endurance…[so that you are] lacking in nothing.” (James 1:2-4) And “All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.” (Hebrews 12:11)
Regardless of the good or bad, Jesus says, “I am with you always.” (Matthew 28:20), so that “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.” (Philippians 1:21)
