Masters of Frugality
Proverbs 18:9H
e also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.
John 6:12
When they were filled, He *said to His disciples, “Gather up the leftover fragments so that nothing will be lost.”
Genesis 41:35
Then let them gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and store up the grain for food in the cities under Pharaoh’s authority, and let them guard it.
Genesis 41:36
Let the food become as a reserve for the land for the seven years of famine which will occur in the land of Egypt, so that the land will not perish during the famine.”
Proverbs 21:20
There is precious treasure and oil in the dwelling of the wise,
But a foolish man swallows it up.
1 Kings 17:5
So he went and did according to the word of the Lord, for he went and lived by the brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan.
SERPENTS ARE WISE BECAUSE THEY DO NOT WASTE ANYTHING
Serpents are masters of frugality. They do not waste anything – when they eat an animal they eat the flesh, the horns, the bones! Snakes digest everything! Nothing goes to waste. Have you ever wondered what happens when a snake swallows an antelope? Where do the horns, flesh, hoofs, hair and teeth go? Snakes waste nothing and that is why they are the most successful predators on this earth. Poor countries are usually run by great wasters. Rich countries are usually run by frugal leaders who leave nothing to waste. “There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up” (Proverbs 21:20). This is why rich people stop having pity on poor people because many poor people are great wasters.
