Yes, God does not choose. If we ask for it, it shall be given in due time. Acts 20:35 states, “In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

But God reminds us through Paul that he wants his people to be generous as well. Paul reminds us in his letter to the Corinthians that, “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver” (2 Corinthians 9:7).

Therefore, we must wholeheartedly give what we can because God gives to us and is very generous. This is where the phrase, “to whom much is given much is required” is applicable.

However, despite God’s generosity, human as we are, we often forget to give to others. We forget that we are required to be like God and be generous. It is God’s will for us that we give back to others whatever we have received from God.

No One Has the Right to Live for Himself Alone

The phrase, “to whom much is given much is required” also means that “no one has the right to live alone for himself” rather, it specifically implies that much is required from one individual.

This requirement means a requirement towards others and not to oneself. We can read this in the Bible as Paul writes to the Romans and says, “For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone” (Romans 14:7).

Thus, it is important that whatever we do, we must bear in mind that we are not only doing it for ourselves but also for the benefit of others.

Furthermore, it is also important that we are reminded that God is with us during every good deed. We are not alone. The Bible says, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand” (Isaiah 41:10).

The above are all excellent points. I know a couple of rich people who are also very stingy, to the point of mental pathology. Strong to extreme attachment to money. They tend to be stingy/very ungenerous with the others, less stingy with themselves. I wonder about their next incarnation, probably they won't be able to recreate the successful conditions they obtained in their present life to due favourable karmic conditions. They disobeyed one of God's law, their magnetism in acquiring wealth is probably going to exhaust itself.
