You Can Prosper The Right Way

The Bible is clear about certain things like this
Proverbs 17:20 One whose heart is corrupt does not prosper;one whose tongue is perverse falls into trouble.
We have heard what has been said before, as a man thinketh in his heart so is he. If your heart is full of corruption, what you see as prosperity is not what the bible defines, people have done crazy things in the name of prosperity but we forget we need to maintain a right and pure heart.
The power of life and death lies in the tongue, and a perverse tongue as well stipulated by the writer clearly leads to trouble. When you use your tongue to lie your way into getting riches the end result is un-ending trouble - some even lead to death until you reverse, renounce and let God cleanse you of all filthiness.
Business can be done in a clean way even though we have to go through the crooked systems in this world. You can always have the favor of God as you do business.

Proverbs 13:11 says, "Dishonest money dwindles away, but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow."
Proverbs 21:6 says, "The acquisition of treasures by a lying tongue Is a fleeting vapor, the pursuit of death. "
Proverbs 10:4 says,  "Laziness leads to poverty; hard work makes you rich."
Proverbs 12:24 says "Work hard, and you will be a leader; be lazy, and you will end up a slave."
Ezekiel 28:4 says "Your wisdom has certainly made you rich, because you have storehouses filled with gold and silver."  

One of the most classic examples of prospering the right way is the testimony and life of Joseph.
You can read Genesis 37 for more information on this.
