Can we get rich by asking God?

Is the Bible current? Perhaps more than you've been led to believe.

For example, take Haggai, an Old Testament prophet sent by God to tell the Israelites to finish building the temple in Jerusalem. Now, these stubborn people didn't take seriously their responsibility to finish their work, kept putting it off for a variety of reasons. So Haggai was sent to stir them up to get them back to work.

At one point, Haggai says, think about what has happened to you before you began working on the Lord's temple. You never collected what you wanted. This was because I was punishing you. I sent diseases that killed your plants and hail that destroyed the things you made with your hands. I did this, but you still did not come to me.

Yet from now on, I will bless you. God blesses those who come to him. Does that mean we get rich by asking God? No, but it does mean that God doesn't bless those that don't ask.
