Wealth actually equals to influence and influence is power to men. There's no man that has genuine power what all people have are influence. Yes including head of state. Is the word of the president of United States going
to be obeyed in say North Korea? No.
Power of men is like the power of satan. Mere influence.
The reason why most people want to be powerful(influential) because they want to satisfy their selfishness and ego.
Being genuinely powerful is being able to exercise genuine authority(instead fictitious) over ANY AND EVERY AND ALL individual AND everything despite his or her willingness or consent and over the natural order of things or rule of nature. That's genuine power which is THANKFULLY reserved to God and God alone.
