Wealthy or Poor the Lord is there for us All
Psalms 72 11Yes, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him. 12For he shall deliver the needy when he cries; the poor also, and him that has no helper. 13He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy. 14He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight. 15And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised. 16There shall be an handful of corn in the earth on the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth. 17His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed. 18Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only does wondrous things. 19And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen. 20The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.

Belief in Christ- Foolish or Powerful??
1 Corinthians 1:18
18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. "King James Version"
Another way of saying the same thing is : To those who are in the process of being destroyed by Satan and his ways the story of the word of the cross is pure foolishness, but, to those who are in the process of being saved by their belief in God will find it Powerful and Dynamic.
Then there are those who in their final hours will face God and have to make a solemn choice wether to accept him or continue to reject him. This poem might just help make it easier for you to decide, before that day comes. “Hiding Place” , by Major Henry Livingston Jr
The ability to send to earth a flesh and blood man free of sin, to speak to all nations with clarity and perfection as he delivered predictions of things to come, while living a sinless and perfect life could only have been done by God. He also allowed this flesh and blood man,(his son, Jesus Christ), to be sacrificed on a cross like a common thief, so he could show that the words of his son were pure and truthful. For he had foretold of his own Death and subsequent Resurrection by the Grace of his Father,(The Almighty God). If the story ended there it would mean nothing. True faith comes when you believe in the power of God to provide. Provide for us he did; when he raised up his sacrificed son from the dead to complete the atonement of our sins. Foolish or Powerful, this belief in Christ. You decide. Until then
Godspeed
