The God of Riches

Revelation 5:12 says: 12 They said with a loud voice:

The Lamb who was slaughtered is worthy

to receive power and riches

and wisdom and strength

and honor and glory and blessing!

The Lamb is worthy of all of this. The thing that my attention was the word riches. Our God possess the Riches of Heaven and Earth. The greek word is "ploutos": abudance of external possession, plentitude, anf fulness. That is our God The God of Riches is to worship. His riches and His Glory produces the Shalom of the Kingdom. Let us not be discouraged by consumerism or avarice and greed. May we worship Him as the God of Riches.
