Proverbs 30

Proverbs 30:9
That I not be full and deny You and say, "Who is the LORD?"
Or that I not be in want and steal,
And profane the name of my God.
The risk of the rich believer is arrogance and pride.  When you have everything you want, it's easy to forget about God.  You did all this hard work to get here; you are now reaping the rewards.  Where does God enter into that, until you need him?

For the poor, it's easy to rely on God, because He can be all you have.  But when He doesn't seem to be answering, the risk is to do something to take your fate into your own hands, and become a bad testimony in the process.
