21 Bible Verses For Establishing An Abundance Mindset
The world often teaches us to operate from a mentality of lack, convincing us that there isn’t enough to go around, so we need to grab as much as we can before it’s gone. But the biblical principle of abundance teaches the exact opposite. When we put our trust in God, we open the door to His provision, prosperity, and wealth. As 1 Chronicles 29:12 reminds us, wealth comes directly from God, who rules over all things. He gives favor and honor to those who keep His commands (Psalm 84:11). Instead of believing in scarcity, we need to shift our mindset to trust that God will provide everything we need and more when we walk in faith with Him.
