Topic: Limitation Of Riches [21/04/2017]
There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in that war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it. Ecclesiastes 8:8. Read: Lk 12:16-21
Pastor E. A. Adeboye told a story of a particular musician who sang a song to praise one honourable chief who was stupendously rich. "Honourable chief you will not die" the musician sang. Barely one month after that day, the honourable chief died. My friend the king called me and said, Adeboye, honourable chief died, I said yes your highness. Adeboye, "Money is shamed" the king exclaimed. Money has been disappointed.
As good and important as money is, there comes a time in life it becomes helpless, unimportant and useless. With money, you can do more here on earth, but it also has limitations. For instance, money cannot buy you joy, peace, true love and faith. When you put your trust in uncertain riches, you are heading for destruction when it finally develops wings and flies away. Money is handicapped on the day of death. When the owner of life finally requires His breathe, money becomes worthless. Finally, money cannot buy you salvation and secure heaven for you. In heaven, money cannot buy you justice before the Lord Jesus Christ. Don't put your trust in uncertain riches but in God Almighty. Those that trust in riches are like the rich fool in our Bible reading. Don't be fooled!

* Father, as you bless me financially, help me not to put my trust in riches in Jesus Mighty Name
