Proverbs 10:22 The blessing of the LORD, it makes rich, and he adds no sorrow with it.
‘Blessing of the LORD, it makes rich.’ Five examples of the Lord making rich: Abraham (Gen. 24:1); Isaac (Gen. 25:11; 26:12); Jacob (Gen. 28:4; 30:27); Solomon (1Kin. 3:13); Job (Job 42:10).
There are 750 promises in the New Testament, but only 250 separate benefits (blessings) because many of the promises are repeated in different books. These blessings are Forgiveness of sins (Matt. 6:14; 12:31; 18:35; Mark 11:25-26; Luke 5:24; Acts 10:43; 13:38-39; 26:18; Rom. 3:25; 4:7-8; Eph. 1:7; Col. 1:14; 1Jn. 1:9; 2:12)Salvation from sin (Matt. 1:21). Salvation by grace through faith, not of works (Rom. 3:24-31; Eph. 2:8-9; 2Thess. 2:13; Tit. 2:11-12). The simplicity of salvation (Rom. 10:9-10; 1Cor. 15:2; 1Jn. 1:9; 2Thess. 2:13). Salvation of the lost (Matt. 18:11; Luke 5:32; John 5:25; 10:9; Rev. 22:17). Filling of righteousness (Matt. 5:6; Luke 6:21). Conversion upon obedience (Matt. 13:15; Acts 3:19; Jas. 5:19-20). Fruitfulness (John 15:5; 2Pet. 1:8). The Holy Spirit in a measure (John 16:7-13; Rom. 8:14-16) and in all fullness (Luke 11:13; 24:49; John 7:37-39; 14:12-18, 26; 15:26; Acts 1:8; 2:16-21, 38-39; 5:32). Guidance (John 16:13-15). Joy, righteousness, and peace in the Holy Spirit (Rom. 14:17).
