‏ Deuteronomy 8:17-18

v. 17: Moses warns the Israelites not to say in their hearts, “My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.” They must not take the credit for what God has done (Deuteronomy 8:17; Ecclesiastes 9:11 a; Habakkuk 1:16 b).

v. 18: They must remember that it is God who gives them the ability to get wealth. All blessings come from Him, and He gives these gifts to keep His promises. People should use what God gives for His glory .
