1 Thessalonians 4 vs 11-12

¹¹ And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;

¹² That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

1 Thessalonians 4:11 - Bible Verse Design — Scripture Type

In this verse, Paul the Apostle tells us to have a source of income so that we can feed ourselves and be a blessing unto others.
Do not be idle. Otherwise, poverty will overcome you.
You cannot use prayer to cover poverty.
There is a place for prayer, and there is a place for hard work.
A lot of people are idle and lazy.
One of the causes of poverty is idleness and laziness.
Some people don’t want to work and want to be rich.
Don’t use prayer or service to God to cover your idleness and laziness.
For you to overcome poverty, you need to work and pray.
Receive the spirit of hard work in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.

No one can help a woman who is struggling with a wayward teenager like the mother who has welcomed a prodigal home.No one can encourage a woman struggling with depression like the woman who has come out of that same darkness and into the light.No one can help a woman struggling with the pain of a shameful past like the woman who has exchanged her tattered sackcloth for a princess’s robe.That’s why your story matters.
