Understanding Your Spiritual Identity as a Blessed Manનમૂનો

FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP AND SPIRITUAL GROWTH (4)

Money can be a weapon of destruction against the devil and his operations if you channel it in the direction of God’s purpose.

As a tool, money should be a means of expression of what is in your heart. If you have cultivated the right values, the expression from your heart will be in the direction of what God is doing on the earth. If you allow the workings of God in your life and give place to godliness, kindness, love, the Gospel, and real purpose in your heart, He will direct money to your hand. But see a man who is devoid of these, with greed and wickedness in his heart, God would not want such a person to have money to misuse it. A poor man with one wife can be a polygamist at heart. It is because he is poor that you think he is a monogamist. Once he gets a little more money, he will marry more wives. Money does not improve you as a person but only increases your options in life.

God does not want you to use money for negative purposes. You do not need money to revenge or bring destruction to people’s lives. Avoid covetousness and do away with cravings that drive a person to make money at all costs. This can make a man stray away from the faith. Strive to qualify yourself for real kingdom wealth. This will position you ahead of others and magnetise you to what they are chasing. Do not seek after other things, go for the purpose, seek ye first things of the kingdom (Mathew 6:32-33).

Prayer: Father, help me to qualify myself for kingdom wealth. I will not follow strange desires and miss Your purpose.
