Well James Chapter 5 starts off with, woe! to the rich; for your riches corrupt you, then continues with; be patient you oppressed, for God knows exactly what he is doing, and why he's allowing you to go through for so long, and then James goes on to say; Pray for others, and be Heroes; one for another.

So this is my understanding of that: If we become rich; then it is now our responsibility, to provide for more strangers than we would like to. For Jesus said in Matt 25:35 " For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in": Showing that his will is; that the needy be taken care of by us; and riches make it hard for us to do that, because we only want to give up so much, that we stay in comfort, and luxury.
So the richer you are, the more riches you have to give up to the poor. And my understanding of what God is saying to the poor, and oppressed is: You are chosen, to be great, so endure the process, to becoming great. And last, to everyone: Seek after, and find faith, and afterward use it to deliver the sick, and bound..... BE YE HEROES SAINTS! This is the will of God.
