The love of money...!

1 Timothy 6:9-12 NKJV

But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is a root of all kinds  of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

† Shalom †......! Day #157. Do you know that greed can destroy us? Let us pray. Father, help us to pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness and holiness and not be distracted unholy desires. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Friends,  tell me who don't want to be rich? But you must be aware of the snare of the devil. Some people when God has bless them richly, they began to forget God. When there is a need,  there they seek God and when there's no need, there they don't seek God. God never say you cannot be rich, but what's the motives of being rich? If your motives is to channel your blessings and riches in helping the poor and the needy, for the works of ministry,  to support mission works, I believe God will continue to bless you, but if you're greedy and just thinking about "me, myself and I" the unholy trinity,  then you are already trapped by the devil and you have become a slave to money. Having plentiful of money 💵, is not wrong,  but the love of money is wrong. You'll become selfish, greedy, willing to kill just for money sake, all kinds of evil and wicked things we would do. For the love of money is a root of all kinds  of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. Hallelujah 🙌 ! Be not entangled with The love for money. Nowadays sorry to Say, a sour truth, servants of God, charge people for ministry. I beseech you fellow workers, fight the good fight of faith and be not slave to money. God bless you!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
