You've been given this Scripture many times from a variety of books in the Bible.

"For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive?" -- 1 Corinthians 4:7

(Cue the "Music to Trash Paul By.")

Paul is telling the Corinthians that they are to be content with what they have, and not puff themselves up with their own self importance, when you read the chapter and not this particular verse. What does that have to do with your non Scriptural claim that God gives prosperity to his favoured? I didn't realize that Joel Osteen is a preacher to the OPC.
