That's for you. My bible tells me that "whatever I ask from God,believing,I shall receive". He promised to honour His word,more than His name. I hold on to His words.
.....................
This is one of the reasons why atheists are on the rise.You people come up with so many unrealsitic claims.GOD already gave solomon his word.GOD's word will never pass away.
If at all you will be rich,maybe next to solomon,but not richer than solomon.

I love the two ladies aquila and prisca/ priscillia. They were thanked severally in the new testament and mentioned as being helpers in the house of God. They didn't do mighty works but they were consistent acts 18, 1corinthians 16, 2 timothy 4.

I also love the prophetess and intercessor anna luke 2:36. She worshiped, fasted and prayed. She loved the Lord

my favourite is job.
Not like I love his character(ok I love his character : he was patient and persevered - which is rare in our modern society)
... but I just find the story confusing...

Like, why would God claim to love him so much and allow him to be tempted that much. lipsrsealed

if u read d scripture well u see dat God was only proving to Satan how faithful Job is.
Re: Who Is Your Favorite Bible Character And Why? by albertelle: 12:45pm On Oct 26, 2014
God told satan that he knew a man that cannot be tempted and he mention job,job as wealth as every thing in life but God choose him cos of is faith he add, and satan went and took is wealth maid him restles in life that he him self is no worthy in the sight of men but he passed the test God gave him, that there is someone there to serve him.

David
He dealt with anybody wey cross him path
A man after God's heart
A man in authority and excess wealth
When he was sick, his wife brought him a young maid to be with him

What else do you want in life?

Mine's ELIJAH the representation of the PROPHETS, a troubler of Isreal's foes, a defender of the cause of Jah, a master of space and time, a man of the supernatural...and the only man that called down fire in the name of the Lord God...

God has many names but when he's called by the name: "THE LORD GOD OF ELIJAH" he answers by fire and power...just as he answered ELIJAH...

I covet one thing greatly and that is THE SPIRIT OF ELIJAH...

I love Shedrack, Meshak & Abednego for their boldness and courage in standing against that wicked king Nebuchadnezzar.

I will love to meet same men to ask them how they felt before being thrown into the burning furnace. I admire their courage to serve God even in the face of death
