THINGS MONEY CANNOT BUY.

Matthew 6:24

We live in a very materialistic World.
We are in times where people see their worth based on their salaries, their profit, and how well their careers are going.
Mark 10:17-22
Material things are not bad in themselves, wealth is not evil but the state of our heart towards money and material things can be a problem.
Mark 10:22
Those who are followers of Christ are not supposed to think like everyone.
We are supposed to think differently from people who do not know the Lord.
Romans 12:2

When wealth and material things take the place God should occupy in our hearts, it's called Mammon.
We are in times when Mammon has taken over the thinking of men's hearts.
When people are governed by money and not God many things go wrong.
Mark 10:23-25
The state of our heart needs to be checked and rectified if need be.
Proverbs 4:23

Material things and money have a seducing power and pull that can pull us away from the right way.
Proverbs 14:12
Money or wealth (material) cannot and should not replace God in our heart.
It calls for perspective and priority.
The love of money and not God has made humanity prioritize wrongly.
Matthew 6:24

We've stopped loving people and started 'using' them, instead of loving people and using money.
1 John 4:20
It's time to place value and priority on God, our fellow man, the Kingdom of God, and the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Matthew 6:33

We won't prioritize money over God when we understand that everything money can get us, God has provided it for us in His Kingdom.
Money can't meet your every need but God does. Philippians 4:19
Money is a defence, and it answers all things but it does not meet your every need.

There are things money cannot buy:
1) MONEY CAN'T SECURE YOUR ETERNITY WITH GOD.
Luke 18:26,27

2) MONEY CAN'T GRANT YOU SALVATION.
Romans 10:9

3) MONEY CAN'T PRODUCE YOUR HEALTH.
Isaiah 58:8

4) MONEY DOESN'T GIVE YOU A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP.
Psalm 127:2

5) MONEY CAN'T GRANT YOU COMPASSIONATE AND RESPONSIBLE CHILDREN.
Psalm 127:3

6) MONEY DOESN'T GIVE YOU WISDOM & UNDERSTANDING.
James 1:5

7) MONEY DOESN'T GIVE YOU VICTORY OVER YOUR ENEMIES.
Deuteronomy 20:4

8) MONEY DOESN'T GIVE YOU GOD'S BLESSING.
Proverbs 10:22

We need to go back to the cross, we need to come into the Kingdom of God.
The true wealth and happiness we seek is waiting there for us with God's blessing.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
