Gen 26: 1-12 (see Vs 1-3, and then 12 KJV): And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar. And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of: Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father; (Vs 12) Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.

[Divine guidance and provision] If God directs you to a place, even if others there are saying there is a casting down there, you will say there is a lifting up because it is he who sustains you, not the economy of the place. (Job 22:29)

Exo 36:6 (KJV) And Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing.

[Divine Provision] Starting from Chapter 35, you see Moses telling the Israelites about the Tabernacle God has asked him to build. And after explaining the vision to them, everyone started to give willingly till they gave TOO much that Moses had to restrain them from further giving. I just love the passage.

Deu 8:18 (KJV)  But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.

[Divine enablement] God is the source of all wealth, and the source of our wealth. We should never arrive at the point when we attribute his blessings in our life to our own wisdom and power.

Psa 23:1 (KJV) The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

[Divine guidance] If you belong to him, he will direct your path. And if he directs your path, you will never lack, ever. You won't need to swindle others, cheat them or steal before you have enough.

Pro 13:7 (KJV) There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.

[Money paradox] Check my article explaining this bible here. 

Prov 10:22  The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.

[Divine blessing] If your wealth is from God (-gotten by righteousness and not fraudulently), he will also give you the health and peace to enjoy it.

Eccl 11:1 (KJV)  Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth. 

[Investing] I covered this in the article ‘KJV Bible verses that talkabout money and you might not know’ 

Pro 10:4 (KJV) He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.

[Laziness leads to poverty] An Asian proverb says “A man will not fail to feed his family who wakes up before sunrise to farm every day.” The question is ‘How many people are disciplined and hardworking enough to wake up before 5 am every day?’

Prov 13:22 (KJV) A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

[Leaving a Legacy] If you aren’t yet thinking about leaving a good legacy/inheritance for your grandchildren, you are either already on your deathbed without any children, or you aren’t a good person.lol
