True Wealth
Proverbs 13:7 There is one who makes himself rich, yet has nothing; And one who makes himself poor, yet has great riches.
Dear Readers, Do you want to be wealthy? Would you like to be admired for your wealth? Sounds nice, doesn’t it? If you answered “Yes” to any of those questions, you’re not alone. We all want to be wealthy, don’t we? I would like you to ask yourself something. What does it mean to be truly wealthy? You know, a lot of people already have wealth, but they are too blind to see it. There are some people who believe they are wealthy, but they are lost, poor in spirit and lonely; For they know not the joy of Christ the King. Now I am going to ask you again. DO YOU WANT TO BE TRULY WEALTHY??? Shout “Amen!” if you do. I’ve got awesome news for you, friends. I can tell you a “foolproof” guaranteed plan to get really wealthy very quickly. Yes, sir, I can. It is not my plan, it is God’s plan. But, I have been anointed and appointed to share it with you. The plan is salvation, folks. Salvation will bring you true wealth. YES, SIR!! Praise God! Anyone can achieve salvation. God’s wealth is free for all. (more…)
Matthew 17:20 So Jesus said to them,
I had a conversation with my cellmate, Paul, over breakfast this morning. Paul has only recently begun his walk with Christ. Everything is new to him. I have introduced him to a pastor friend of mine. He now visits Paul and studies with him. As a new Christian, Paul has loads of questions. I do my best to assist him and answer all of them. If I don’t know the answer, then I work diligently to find it. [I have yet to be completely stumped.] Today, Paul and I discussed being selfless. Recently, Paul expressed his lack of understanding in regards to putting God first. My pastor friend and I both explained to Paul that if he puts God first, everything else will fall into place. Paul was an addict. The very act of being an addict is selfish. I know Paul to be a very caring and giving man, but drugs change people.
