According to James 2:5, the perception of wealth is "money buys everything". Therefore, these wealthy people did not need God for anything. However, even if this idea were not literally true, wealthy people in those days lived by this principle which in turn, hardened their hearts to God.
Verse 5 of James 2, reminds us that God wants to be included in everything we do. This is the reason why God likes the Poor because, since they are physically incapable of providing, protection, or caring for themselves, they are forced to wholeheartedly depend on God for their life! This is the mindset God wants us to have everyday.
Prayer: may your intimate relationship with God never grow cold due to your wealth or lack in Jesus Mighty Name! Amen
