Why do I say everyone is Rich?
Because.
What you value determines what makes you rich.
God is our income and God is our Outcome.
For in him, you have been enriched in every way—with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge 1 Corinthians 1:5
What does that mean?
The income is I am beautifully made In God's image and likeness. I have been given the richness of God's grace in the Spirit of Jesus Christ who gave me life. The Outcome is I can richly display the spirit of God's love to all people.
So as you see, what you value determines what makes you rich.
I am Rich with the Lord, without the Lord I can't do anything, my life is meaningless.
Why do I say my life is meaningless without the Lord?
Because it is written in 1 Timothy 6:6-9 Godliness with contentment is a great gain.
For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.
The people in the world chasing after worldly things to be rich fall into a trap because they want the things of the world.
Not everything is beneficial.
Most things in life are meaningless and have no value.
Accept loving and valuing people.
1 Timothy 6:18 Commands us to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.
If you are following this command you are rich. God is our income and God is our outcome because we value God.
What you value determines what makes you rich.
Those who want to be rich in the world may find themselves in a trap. The love of riches is a snare, tempting people to all sorts of sin.
Riches are not what life is about: “One’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions. And we can’t even be confident about how our wealth will be handled after we die. Getting rich may be the American Dream, but it is not the hope of the Lord.
Everyone is Rich in the Lord but only if they trust in the Lord.
It is written in 1 Philippians 4:19 And my God will meet all our needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
Matthew 6:26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: Psalm 37:3-5
Everyone is Rich
