Does God really care how much money you have. I'm not sure hard work is enough anymore. You can work hard and never get anywhere. The desire to prosper combined with bulldog tenacity, I'm hoping that's the way.

Remember the old saying, "God helps those who help themselves"?
Yes, God guarantees prosperity as long as you go about getting it by means of good old hard work!
But, then again, there are no guarantees.

To tell you the truth, God says it himself: "Plans for you to prosper and not to bring you harm." This tells you about what happens when you accept Christ and go to heaven. Good old hard work just guarantees you life in this world. Christ gives you prosperity in the world and in the other side.

Neither promises prosperity. God plans for us to prosper, but never promises we will during life. Not all the great Bible people were prosperous, in fact, most of the NT figures were imprisoned, tortured and killed.
Good ole hard work doesnt gaurentee prosperity either. There are hundreds of thousands of people just in this country who work their butts off and are still below poverty.

Both. God can grant prosperity but only if your willing to do the work for it. You can't just sit around and make God do all the work.

God guarentees prosperity after death if you do what he commands, but as for physical things in life? You'll just have to either work hard or be lucky.

God granted you prosperity by giving you hands at the ends of your arms. The degree of prosperity depends on if you choose to use them or not.
AH! Free Will; the constant conundrum!

Good old hard work. God does not exist, so you get out of life what you put into it.
