Love of Money
People are in constant pursuit of happiness only sadly, they are searching in all the wrong places. There are many who measure success in terms of how much money they have but all the money in the world won’t bring true joy and contentment. The devil cunningly encourages you to desire more and more, keeping your focus on obtaining the material things in this world. Television commercials, advertisements, and magazines are designed to entice you to feel the need to be rich, tempting you to make financial wealth your highest priority. But what really counts is not how wealthy you are, but rather God’s presence in your life. The Bible says in Hebrews 13:5, “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” No matter how fat your bank account is–without God,  your life will be meaningless and without purpose. Instead of searching for gold–seek out a closer relationship with Jesus–making Him your highest priority and you will find real happiness. Text: Matthew 6:20-21, Philippians 4:19, John 12:26

Bible Texts:
Matthew 6:20-21 NKJV - "but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. 

Philippians 4:19 NKJV - And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. 

John 12:26 NKJV - "If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.
