God has prepared a banquet for his faithful, yet many stand outside the door claiming that they won't enter because they don't like the host, or can't believe there is a host, or think that the host is cruel, etc.
So, the greatest poverty is poverty of the spirit, through one's own choosing.

Spiritual Poverty and the absence of wisdom from the Holy Spirit.
If you have wisdom (like King Solomon) you will have everything. Prosperity and abundance is the mistress of wisdom, while poverty and lack is the mistress of ignorance.
If you need abundance for your soul and for your material needs all you have to do is pray and ask for wisdom from the Holy Spirit

I don't know if you wanted a country or what so I'll just answer.I think when someone is poor in the Holy Spirit.If you are blessed with a close relationship with our Lord, other things just don;t seem to mean as much.

People who are on death row because they cannot afford decent legal representation. They're pretty much going to DIE because they are poor. I think that's messed up. Damien Echols is innocent and poor and he's going to die. O.J. Simpson was rich and guilty and he walked. I think the system sucks.

spiritual poverty - not enough people living the truth of what they say they believe and say they practice.
