March 13-Proverbs 13:22

Proverbs 13:22 says, "A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children, But the wealth of the wicked is stored up for the righteous."

Let's take a look at the Amplified bible translation, (this is great!): " A good man leaves an inheritance (of moral stability and goodness) to his children's children, and the wealth of the sinner (finds its way eventually) into the hands of the righteous, for whom it is stored up.

We can leave an inheritance to our children and their children, whether it be a fiancial inheritance or more importantly a godly inheritance of moral stability, good character and intregrity. We need to realize what we pass on to our children can be passed on to further generations. The second part of this verse is good also, "the wealth of the sinner is stored up for the righteous". That tells me there will be a tranference of the wealth of the wicked to the righteous. ( I've seen it happen and know of others it has happened to). So even though it may seem sometimes like the wicked are prospering and it doesn't seem fair, know that one day that wealth may be yours!

Bottom line: You are blessed ( with all spiritual blessings) and even more blessings (fiancial blessings) will come your way, if you trust the Lord and stand on His Word!
