Quite a promise when you think about it: riches with no sorrow; wealth without anxiety. No worrying about who might take it away; or how you might loose it; or the tax burden because of it; or the misunderstandings about you because you have it.
Blessings from the Lord do not come with continuing lust or passion or focus on “toiling” for more riches. Blessings from the Lord are freeing, not enslaving.
So, just whom does the Lord bless? Those who are diligent to know: Diligent to be like Him; to bless others as He did; and, to obey Him. Without a scent of self-centeredness; without a hint of disputing His law; obeying wholeheartedly.
