Quiz: Where is this in the Bible?

 Happy are those who fear the Lord.  Yes, happy are those who delight in doing what he command.  Their children will be successful everywhere; and entire generation of godly people will be blessed.  They themselves will be wealthy, and their good deeds will never be forgotten.  When darkness overtakes the godly, light will come bursting in.  They are generous, compassionate, and righteous.

All goes well for those who are generous, who lend freely and conduct their business fairly.  Such people will not be overcome by evil circumstances.  Those who are righteous will be long remembered.  They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the Lord to care for them.  They are confident and fearless and can face their foes triumphantly.  They give generously to those in need.  Their good deeds will never be forgotten.  They will have influence and honor.  The wicked will be infuriated when they see this.  They will grind their teeth in anger, they will slink away, their hopes thwarted.

Let's play a game everyone!

These verses burst with promises.  Who wouldn't want this in their lives to happen?

All goes well for those who are godly, but not without some darkness.  They are just not overcome by evil circumstances.  Let's be clear though, the godly people are a definite group of dedicated people marked by certain characteristics.  They are always ready to give.  They are compassionate and righteous.  The righteous lives by faith. No, they don't separate themselves into casts.  They just mingle with the rest and wash feet. These verses not only burst with promises, but they are made to the godly who themselves are happy and burst with good deeds.  Good deeds that are not necessarily brownie points to heaven for those who are truly godly know that they are saved by their believe in Jesus Christ and what he has done on the Cross for the world. Those godly people just know what makes them wealthy.  It's a rejoicing in heavenly goodness! That's what make them truly wealthy.  Why would money which is temporary make anyone wealthy.  It is enough to be laughed at?  How could material goods satisfy spiritual longings? Rejoice!  You who have godly blood running through your veins.  The blood of Jesus and are walking in godliness for you are truly wealthy.

The world's wealth is of little value when its all gone.  Compared to heavenly glories that temporary wealth does not even come near.

The proof is that the wicked will be infuriated when they see this.  The glory of God will be too much for them to see.  For God will pour it without measure for all to see and enjoy...except the wicked who will have to go in hiding and shame.

Have a great day!  Please leave me a comment with what you think are the verses that are in this passage of the Bible.
