Wealth

The "brains" of the enterprise are in him. He endows us with the capacity to generate wealth. Every time we lose sight of this, we start to slide toward pride and self-sufficiency. Actually, when you had nothing, it was simpler to rely on God. It is tempting to deny that King Jesus is to blame for your prosperity and resources now that you have more than you could have imagined. He is not your silent or submissive spouse. You and your possessions are his to keep. Furthermore, as owner, He deserves and wants full exposure of His dominant position. Thus, this does raise a very important query. What kind of financial management is expected of me by God? Of course, it isn't the "larger barn" scenario where I spend all these resources on what I want and need.

Yes, the underprivileged are a wonderful place to start. The proper attention God desires is nevertheless withheld from them despite the silence of their screams. Most often, the poor are "out of sight," and as a result, "out of memory," in the lives of the wealthy. But Christ's compassion for the impoverished crushes his heart. He has the underprivileged "top of mind." He wants His people to experience this. What is left over does not belong to the poor. They are entitled to "first dibs." We must focus our first-line donations on the underprivileged and needy. Get along with the underprivileged and you'll contribute to them!

Money carries a heavy burden that shouldn't be ignored. You have your reward if you claim credit for it. A reward on this planet is guaranteed if you manage your wealth without considering God's heart. Wealth invested in and dedicated to heavenly causes, however, yields benefits and rewards that go far beyond this life. God has promised to do this. Spiritual amnesia is facilitated by pride. The further you go away from your biggest source of need, the Almighty God, the less dependent you become. In actuality, your need for God increases as your possessions do. The only way you can manage your wealth wisely is with God's help. Otherwise, your faith is paralyzed by fear, opulent obsession, or excessive caution. Through generosity, God's direction will set you free and enable you to pursue initiatives for the Kingdom.

So have it in mind he is the origin of your fortitude, the giver of your power, the fountain of your wisdom, the creator of your talents, and the foundation of your wealth. When you quickly give Him the glory for your accomplishments, you keep being "blessable" and blessed. Your ability to rely on Him in a free environment will inspire your kids to follow in your footsteps. Keep placing all your trust in the Lord and your Savior. Then wealth continues to be a blessing rather than a liability. Use the resources of the world for extraterrestrial ends. This serves as evidence of a developing relationship with Jesus Christ. Grow your money and share it for His glory!
