Proverbs - Redistributing Wealth




Proverbs 28:8

He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.

The Lord has an interesting way of getting His blessings to His people.  Here we learn that those who increase their earnings by the wrong things will end up having it go to those who really need it.  How does He do this?  Sometimes there are police raids that gather the cash from a drug dealer’s house and this money is sent to places where it is needed.  Cars and vehicles are seized and sold at auction to support our police departments and those the department chooses to bless.  Unpaid taxes by tax evaders are collected with interest and help local schools and community programs.  The Lord is a judge and He is able to use that which was gained by wrong to accomplish His purposes
