Are you trusting in your riches...?

Mark 10:24-27 NKJV

And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!  It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, “Who then can be saved?” But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.”

Shalom! Day #303. Do you know that people say that money can't buy happiness,  but can buy the things that makes us happy? Let's pray. Father, we know that riches will never give us security and salvation but, when our trust is in You alone guarantees our security and salvation. We thank You Lord that You have bought us at such a price that we cannot pay. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

People say that money can't buy happiness, but can buy the things that makes you happy. Well I agree to disagree this statement. It doesn't matter how wealthy and rich you are, you can't buy your salvation. You may have many security guards around you, but you cannot buy the security for your soul. It is foolishness for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God. It doesn't mean that rich people will not enter heaven and will not be saved, no. Everyone who trust in the Lord wholeheartedly,  be it poor, middle class, or rich people shall be saved. People always get this wrong. There is place in heaven for every tongue and tribe, every race, every human on earth if only they trust in the Lord wholeheartedly. Why did the Lord has to say, "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." Well normally rich people ( I'm not saying all, but there are some) they trust in their wealth and don't need God.

But again Jesus said, with men it is impossible, but not with God, for with God all things are possible. There is nothing to hard that God cannot crush and nothing to deep God cannot reveal. No matter how hard a rich man may be, God is still able to crush him and bring him to repentance same goes to everyone else. Not only in creating a miracle, but also to bring a person to repentance and to give him or her the knowledge of salvation. God is able. Today, are you praying for someone in your family to be saved, or even your spouse or your friends, do not falter! It may seem like your prayer is not penetrating the ceiling, but be encouraged because your prayers are being heard by God and according to His timing it shall be done wonderfully.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
