Pro 10:4 | MHM | STEP | Weighty Sayings. This verse teaches us about the importance of hard work and honesty. Solomon points out that laziness and dishonesty lead to poverty, while diligence and a careful attitude lead to success. This is true in both our daily lives and our spiritual lives. God blesses those who do their best with what they have, but those who are careless or try to cheat others will suffer loss in the end. v. 4 : “He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich” . If someone is lazy or does not work hard, they are likely to become poor. People who are active, honest, and work hard often improve their situation and may become rich. The same is true spiritually. Those who are lazy in doing good or following God will not grow, but those who are eager to serve the Lord and do good will become “rich in faith” (Romans 12:11; James 2:5 ).
