132 Bible Verses about Prosperity
There's a kind of prosperity that isn't of this world, not fleeting, that doesn't fade with time, but stays constant no matter what. It's the prosperity that comes from God, the kind that's eternal, the kind that isn't based on how much money you have, but on the growth of your inner self.

In the end, they're just people who had a good run, but not the joy of living in freedom.
