Hi Awakened: Don't let anyone fool you, we have to go through this life just like everyone else, and that means if we do not have money we need to go out and find a job. If you have a job that pays you money then there is nothing wrong in believing that the job is supplying you with money. Our example of a Christian is the apostle Paul, he worked and helped others and was content with just the basic things in this life. Sometimes Paul was doing well and other times he had hardships...that is the Christian life. We cannot get what we want whenever we want it just because we believe in the Lord. The bible says that we are called to tribulation...that does not mean that we cannot have good times and do well, however if you want to do well you will have to work for it, God is not going to just hand it to you. The Lord will help you, but He will not do it for you.
