A WORD FROM GOD
God created Adam and made him a wife from his bones; He is not tired nor weary of creating and making people. God is ever potent, the Omnipotent, has capacity for everything and He'll do all things by Himself. This is the issue with money - it also answers all things. So eventually, those who believe money can solve their problem don't bother looking for God. It is because "God" and "money" are both masters - equal but opposite in intents.
Imagine God created Adam, put in His garden Eden, then rested because He was pretty sure Adam and his wife were sufficient to conquer all of Eden and its powers. Two were already chasing a thousand, how much more thousands! Now, imagine that the earth were full of wonderful Adams who're skilfully subduing the cosmos powers by the word of His power? Do you think the earth will ever need such billions as we have now to keep it under check?
God's intention was to create and keep creating, not humans give birth to themselves like the beasts of the field, fowls of the air do. God wanted something different, more honouring for man created in His own image, fashioned after His own likeness - male and female. With just a million souls living forever, God is done, simply good to go! And with two million souls eating from the Tree of life Gen 3:22, having got eternal life in them, God's work is perfected. Think about it.
Childbearing for humans was abrupt, a result of man's indulgence, for it came by a curse - Genesis 3-4, and was not part of God's foremost plan. It is quite unreasonable for anyone to think it were ever part of Life. No, it is the pride of life 1John 2:15-16. With no money, no children, you're reckoned as "dead", "useless" by everyone else. So when Adam's wife finally gave birth to her first child Cain, she screamed, "thank God, I've gotten a man!!" How does that sound to you?
It meant she fought for it. She cried, complained and murmured till God heard her. She'd refused to work or eat till God showed up. Soon she became lukewarm and wouldn't respond wholeheartedly to anything God had said - to help Adam. At extremes, she'd separate herself from her husband because she wasn't getting his attention even though Adam was always with her. She felt much lonely and deprived, bereaved of something. Day after day and night, she always felt like making up, as if something was missing, so she fought tooth and nail for her husband's love and affection, distracting God's work
Sooner that she got "another man" in place of her husband Adam, supposedly from God, she was pacified. Still, that empty pursuit didn't leave her because she wanted to give birth to everybody as her name Eve "Mother of All Living" implied. For God had become angered by the multitude of their vain, empty thoughts toward Him. They being neutral beings, unascertained and yet to be filled, were bitterly grieved about nature of things and its unending waiting. Adam's wife had made friendship with Adam's ex-lover and initial helper, the serpent, which tutored her. Serpent itself had initiated those thoughts against the mightiness of God to end His reign on earth.
Today, we have something even worse than the snakes. And it is money - militating against the reins of God among the people He's created, bidding them to forget God and bask in its own false security. As it attacks the poor who have not, it afflicts the rich to keep having. As money intimidates the small who force their voice to be heard, it threatens also the great not to keep quiet. As it spoils the faith of "free" heaven bound citizens, it destroys the slave who lives by his strength, so that no one lives on earth except he "thinks" money or "works" for it - Rev 13:16-18.
Know for sure, God's work will be done, even without money, the prince of this world. But it's more important that you have a proper thinking and took informed decisions on marriage, money and movements, as written in God's book: DO NOT CRAVE OTHER THINGS NOR THINGS OF OTHERS THAN THE CAPACITY OR CAPABILITIES GOD BEQUEATHS YOU, the grace apportioned you. All of this man runs after, the very things that make them proud, their pride of life - childbearing or riches, is by choice.
