Deuteronomy 8:19 & 20:  "But if you forget about the Lord your God and worship other gods instead, and follow evil ways, you shall certainly perish, just as the Lord has caused other nations in the past to perish. That will be your fate, too, if you don't obey the Lord, your God."
 
Commentary:  "In times of plenty, it is easy to take credit for your prosperity and begin to feel that your own hard work and cleverness have made you rich. It is easier yet to get so busy collecting and managing your wealth that you soon find God has been pushed right out of your life. But it is God who blesses us with abundance and it is God who asks us to manage it for him. Don't forget God in your abundance, or you will eventually lose all you have. Remember that the most valuable things in life -- your relationship with God and eternal life -- are free!"
