We should not be anxious about the future, but we should plan for the future. What we do today affects our future! Let's turn to Luke 12:35-48.

Do you ever worry about money? If so, this message will help, as we continue our deep dive into the book of Luke, coming to Luke 22:34 today.

We continue our deep dive into the book of Luke today where Jesus is teaching on such things as greed.

Let's open our Bibles to Luke 12:1-12. We will take a look at hypocrisy today.

Let's open our Bibles to Luke 11:37-54

Let's open our Bibles to John 8:2-11.

Luke 11:29-36...

29 As the crowds were increasing, He began to say, “This generation is a wicked generation; it seeks for a [a]sign, and yet no [b]sign will be given to it but the [c]sign of Jonah. 30 For just as Jonah became a [d]sign to the Ninevites, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. 31 The Queen of the South will rise up with the men of this generation at the judgment and condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, something greater than Solomon is here. 32 The men of Nineveh will stand up with this generation at the judgment and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

33 “No one, after lighting a lamp, puts it away in a cellar nor under a basket, but on the lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light. 34 The eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is [e]clear, your whole body also is full of light; but when it is [f]bad, your body also is full of darkness. 35 Then watch out that the light in you is not darkness. 36 If therefore your whole body is full of light, with no dark part in it, it will be wholly illumined, as when the lamp illumines you with its rays.”

There are only two sides. We are either for Christ or we are against Him. Whose side are you on? Are you certain? Let's open our Bibles to Luke 11:14-28.

Let's open our Bibles to Luke 11:5-10, "And He said to them, “Which of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine has come to me on his journey, and I have nothing to set before him’; and he will answer from within and say, ‘Do not trouble me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give to you’? I say to you, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as many as he needs. “So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened."

Let's open our Bibles to Luke 11:1-4...

Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.”

2 So He said to them, “When you pray, say:

Our[a] Father [b]in heaven,

Hallowed be Your name.

Your kingdom come.

[c]Your will be done

On earth as it is in heaven.

3 Give us day by day our daily bread.

4 And forgive us our sins,

For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.

And do not lead us into temptation,

[d]But deliver us from the evil one.”
