Where are you investing? Pastor Ryan of Morning Star Fellowship-Pennsburg Campus Digs into Matthew 6:19-24 and o0ffers three illustrations and practical applications on how and what to invest in:
ETERNAL TREASURE OR EARTHLY TREASUREEARTHLY TREASURE = temporary, wears down with time, can be taken, here today, gone tomorrow ETERNAL TREASURE = outlasts your life, held safe in heaven for eternity, a reward from God that cannot be lost or taken away!
1 Timothy 6:17-19 (NLT) 17 Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment. 18 Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others. 19 By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life.
GENEROUS STEWARDSHIP OR GREEDY POSSESSIVENESSLuke 12:15-21 (NLT) 15 Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.” 16 Then he told them a story: “A rich man had a fertile farm that produced fine crops. 17 He said to himself, ‘What should I do? I don’t have room for all my crops.’ 18 Then he said, ‘I know! I’ll tear down my barns and build bigger ones. Then I’ll have room enough to store all my wheat and other goods. 19 And I’ll sit back and say to myself, “My friend, you have enough stored away for years to come. Now take it easy! Eat, drink, and be merry!”’ 20 “But God said to him, ‘You fool! You will die this very night. Then who will get everything you worked for?’ 21 “Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God.”
SERVANT OF GOD OR SLAVE TO MONEYJames 4:4 (NLT) 4 You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God.
