Who Is A Slave To Money — You May Be Surprised
Category: HOME BUSINESS
Have you ever noticed how many people, even born again Christians, are taught that wealth leads the pure pious soul into corruption? For much too long we have been taught that money leads us into temptation and sin. Money will take over your life and ultimately enslave you. You must avoid becoming wealthy. It is sinful to desire a better life than the life you have now. Money will bring you to a horrible and eternal death. Money will become your master and lead you into eternal damnation.
This mindset is the exact opposite of the truth found in God’s Holy Word. It is in opposition to the success principles promised to us in God’s Word. It just does not seem to be logical that God would create this wonderful world and fill it with all of its wealth and beauty as a means to lead men astray or to tempt and corrupt them. The truth is that He created all of the wealth in the world FOR His magnificent and favorite creation - mankind. This understanding is essential to the success principles that you need to learn.
Slavery to money is a real issue. However, the actual cause of this slavery comes from the ‘lack’ of money and not from an abundance of it. It is a fact, and I’m sure that you’ve noticed, that the majority of people who do not have money are heavily in debt, work grueling hours for a pittance that doesn’t cover the bills, and are constantly worried about where they’re going to get the money for this or that bill. Unfortunately this situation puts people into a position where they are willing to do almost anything to get the money they need just to survive. The true slaves to money are those who have to constantly rack and scrape enough of it to live (get by) in this world.
Money simply reveals who you really are. In our study of success principles we need to consider this deeply. If you are greedy, money simply emphasizes your greed. If you are dishonest, money brings out this characteristic. If you’re poor minded, money doesn’t help because you can’t control it. If you are a fool (the Biblical meaning of ‘without God’), you’re soon parted from it. Solomon tells us in Proverbs 21:20 (NLT) “The wise have wealth and luxury, but fools spend whatever they get.”
If you look you will see that there are thousands of poor Christians who religiously go to Church every time that the doors are opened. Have you noticed how many born again believers are sick, poor, discouraged, plagued with debt and worry. It amazes me to see Christians falling for the old teaching that they must be poor to be humble. This image of a believer was established after the death of the last disciple who walked with Jesus Christ while He walked on earth. This was a teaching geared at keeping the populace poor and under the control of the church hierarchy.
It is a shame that there are so many who are slaves to money (to not having it). They are always trying to find enough to get by. You hear Christians praying for a financial blessing. I can imagine God looking from Heaven, shaking His head and saying, “Why don’t you read your Holy Bible! I have created all that exists in this physical world for you. I have given you clear directions in My Holy Scripture for you to prosper.” All of God’s success principles are there.
If not today when will it be time for believers to start believing? The thought that money leads to evil is a cop-out. The ‘DESIRE’ for money is the root of evil. When the desire for material possessions exceeds and precedes the desire for the presence of God, evil intentions come to pass. It is time to break the bondage of financial slavery. You need to banish the curse of poverty from your life. You can do this and not succumb to the temptations of this lust-filled world. If you will simply change that poverty mindset, you can attain every success that God the Father has ordained for you.
Can you read? Can you think? Are you teachable? Do you want to break the bonds of financial slavery? Do you want to live a successful, stress free lifestyle? There will always be trials and tribulations. Finances do not have to be one of them.
Jesus told us that men would hate us because of Him. He told us that we would suffer trials and tribulations. Trials and tribulations are the tests by which our metal is tested. These are nothing more than character builders. You have already been told in the Bible that Christ, on the Cross, defeated Satan. Why do you insist on letting him defeat you? Why do you insist on letting a world that has been given to you, over which, through the indwelling Holy Spirit of the One True Living God, you have been given dominion, keep you down?
Every human being is a child of the King of King, the Lord of Lords. You are an heir to the Kingdom and co-heir with Jesus Christ of the Kingdom of Heaven. Why do you live like a pauper under the slavery of money?
Would you like to live free? Take the opportunity to break free. Would you like to provide for you family more than you can imagine? Study the manual that gives you every solution to every problem that you face in life.
