Riches and Christianity

Is this verse from the Bible?

When someone asks you for something, give it to him; when someone wants to borrow something, lend it to him.
(Mat 5:42)

Is this verse from the Bible? One may be enquiring. There is no doubt that these are the words of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. Meaning if anyone asks you, give, if someone wants to borrow from you lend.

How many times have we turned away someone when we purport not to have. This confession that you do not have has come out to lack. Because as a Christian you have said you do not have this has contributed to your lack. When you are asked of something give.

How many times have we acted like bankers when one asks for a loan? Have we not checked the credit worthiness of someone. I have learnt to lend money that if I am not given back I do not feel as if I have lost out.

In our quest for prosperity, as Christians let us learn to give and to lend. This will show we are different from the unbelievers. This will also radiate love which wins souls to Christ and which will touch the heart of God. This will equal in riches.
