Can I become rich without God?
Dear Millennial,
First of all, why do you want to become rich?
It is important you are able to concisely answer this question before you engage in your pursuit of riches because riches is like a sharp knife, it can be used as a weapon for protection and can also be used as a weapon for self destruction if not properly handled.
Also realize that wealth is not the same as riches. Wealth speaks of prosperity in all areas of life; spirit, health, mind, body, finances, relationships etc. but riches speaks solely of finances.
But for your question "Can I become rich without God?" here is what I'll tell you today;
Your desire for riches is not wrong, Infact its a sign that you are a future forward individual nevertheless the thought of attaining riches without God is destructive.
Do you remember, what the serpent told Adam and Eve (the first man and woman who ever tasted wealth)
"for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil."
(Genesis 3:5 KJV)
You shall be as gods, implying you would not need God anymore! After all, you are like Him.
You can live your life without Him since you can produce same results He (God) can produce!
What was the implications of this foolishness?
God said since you are now like me get out of my garden and begin to suffer to take care of yourselves.
This explains why despite the technological advancements of our proudly sinful world there are news of untold sickness, abortion, gun violence, dysfunctional marriages etc.
Yes, you can become rich without your direct allegiance to Jesus Christ because you are compliant to the Principles of Christ and not the Person of Christ
After all Satan told Jesus Christ he could give Him the riches of this world (Luke 4.6), Nebuchadnezzar was an extremely rich king without God.
But be sure of these
"Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day.
If you ever forget the Lord your God and follow other gods and worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed"
(Deuteronomy 8.11,19)
You can be rich without God but be warned that God will personally facilitate and supervise your destruction !
Remember,
And He gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
James 4.6

Wow
Thank you for this Sir... I've being searching for this sort of Writing
God bless you 🔥
God will personally facilitate your destruction?
That is intense statement which doesn't really depict the nature of God who is all merciful. It sounds like you're saying God will scheme your fall which I don't think he would.
