Work and Moneyનમૂનો

When Simon unwisely sought to purchase God’s power for money, Peter’s response was −“May your money perish with you…” (Acts 8:20). Then, when Ananias and Sapphira lied to God and kept back part of the price of the land which they sold, their lives were immediately taken from them!

Money can be a powerful temptation that the enemy can use against us. Frequently, it has greedily been loved! What money will purchase has sadly become the object of many people’s worship. Paul referred to this form of idolatry as“…the root of all kinds of evil.”

Humans have been tempted to steal, kill, lie, jettison their ethics, and even sell their own bodies for one sinful reason − their strong“…love of money…!”

Today, in quiet prayer, ask the Lord to search your heart: "Where are your affections: on Christ or on what He provides?"
