In His Presence:Part 3 (Ps 112)

Psalms 112:3
“Wealth and riches are in their houses,
and their righteousness endures forever.”

So for all of ya’ll that think this is verse is all about money, you need to see things a little different. Wealth and riches indicate the fractions of culture, character like peace, joy, hope, holiness, purity and a prayerful home etc.
I don’t know if you have ever been to homes that are filled with peace and joy and you go there and you feel better. Your worst day starts to get better. A headache fades away. An argument finds it’s solution. A broken marriage can find restoration. Only a godly home can bring an atmosphere like that and a culture that is in a way healing to the soul. There was this once when I went to my cousin’s house and the little kid was playing and having the time of his life. I had a horrible headache but he wasn’t disturbing me at all cause five minutes of being in that house my headache disappeared. I realized it was the culture and character of the prayerful family that had made that home a healing one.
What sort of character you may ask. As the scripture says their righteousness. The robe of righteousness that He placed upon them. and you can see that through different scriptures like “the prayer of the righteous shall avail much. Me and my family shall serve the Lord. etc”
It takes courage to live the life my uncle and aunt live and you can see that in their beautiful, spirit filled kids. But that is what makes their home full of wealth and riches.
And along the side of money. Yes, God is a provider and he gives to those in need and those that ask. But a completely different answer lies for those that are just plain greedy.

Build character in your homes. Let your children see and become and love all that you as parents are. Fill your home with prayer and ask the Holy spirit to use you and your atmosphere to will uplift, restore and heal. In His presence and through His Holy Spirit, your homes will be filled withe wealth and riches that are available to everyone that comes in.
Spread the wealth and riches!
