INVEST IN ETERNITY
God is not against material things at all because He knows you need them.
MONEY MONDAY
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also – Matthew 6:20-21
If your heart is on earthly things, you’ll blow your money on earthly things such as fancy cars, the latest fashion, jewelry and the like to impress others and satisfy your lust. Such things are temporal, they can depreciate, break, and be stolen. They are a poor investment.
God is not against material things at all because He knows you need them. However, if your heart is on eternal things, you’ll prioritize the Gospel with your money and do Good Works that God will reward you in this life and the next. That’s how you lay up treasure for yourself in Heaven.
God is not against us having money, He’s against us being foolish investors. Blowing our money on earthly things is a poor investment. But by doing Good Works with our money we’re investing in our future. God will reward us far more than the world ever can in this world and the one to come. Glory to God!
CONFESSION
I’m a wise investor. I put my money in eternal things and not temporal things. I invest my money in Heaven where the returns are far more than those of the world system.
