There are spiritual challenges for both those who have money and those who don't
God promises to give us what we need, but not what we may want
1 Timothy - need for contentment with the basic of life
Examine:
- How much have we accumulated?
- Why have we accumulated it?
- How much are we using?
- How are we using it?
- How attached are we to it?
Colossians 3:23 - work for the Lord
Seeking advancement or seeking to please God?
How content are you with what you have? -
Philippians 4:12
1 Timothy 6:9-12 - not just avoid but flee from the love of money
- Some use people, and love money
- God uses money and loves people
Who is master in your life? God OR Money -
Luke 16:13
Avoid the extremes of loving it and envying those who have more than you
Use money to the fullest extend to serve him and bless others
