SPIRITUAL
BLESSING, BENEFITS OF

MANY people grew up watching The Beverly Hillbillies—Jed Clampett, Elly May, and Jethro. That was a fun show to watch. It really was a show about folks trying to get used to being rich. These folks didn’t know how to act when they discovered how rich they were.

So here’s a question. Jed Clampett one day hit black gold. He hit oil. How long had Jed Clampett been a millionaire? Did he become a millionaire on the day that he inadvertently came across the fact that there was oil, or had he been a millionaire and just was an uninformed one? There are a lot of spiritual Jed Clampetts walking around today who have untold wealth of which they are unaware.892
