Scripture teaches that financial success is a result of trust in God's provision and obedience to His principles. In Deuteronomy, God reminds His people that their ability to produce wealth comes from Him, and in Proverbs, it is written that wealth gained through wisdom and diligence is a blessing. Jesus instructs His followers to prioritize seeking God's kingdom and righteousness, promising that their needs will be met, as seen in Matthew. Additionally, Proverbs and Philippians encourage believers to honor God with their resources, trusting that He will supply all their needs, as promised in Philippians 4:19.

But remember that it is the LORD your God who gives you the power to gain wealth, in order to confirm His covenant that He swore to your fathers even to this day.
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.
Honor the LORD with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your harvest; then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will overflow with new wine.
And my God will supply all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
One gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds what is right, only to become poor. A generous soul will prosper, and he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.
A faithful man will abound with blessings, but one eager to be rich will not go unpunished.
The LORD will make you prosper abundantly—in the fruit of your womb, the offspring of your livestock, and the produce of your land—in the land that the LORD swore to your fathers to give you. The LORD will open the heavens, His abundant storehouse, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations, but borrow from none. The LORD will make you the head and not the tail; you will only move upward and never downward, if you hear and carefully follow the commandments of the LORD your God, which I am giving you today. Do not turn aside to the right or to the left from any of the words I command you today, and do not go after other gods to serve them.
Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.”
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness.
He who trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will thrive like foliage.
No one can serve two masters: Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
This Book of the Law must not depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. For then you will prosper and succeed in all you do.
