MAKING A LIVING versus making money:

-

Throughout a lifetime, there is a constant bombardment of sources on “HOW TO GET RICH”. Many people spend their entire lifetime trying to get rich thinking that by having lots of money money life will be easier and they can simply enjoy life.


“But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after [RIGHTEOUSNESS, GODLINESS, FAITH, LOVE, PATIENCE, [MEEKNESS” (1 Timothy 6:11).


“[LABOUR NOT TO BE RICH]: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? [FOR RICHES CERTAINLY MAKE THEMSELVES WINGS]; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven” (Proverbs 23:4-5).


“A GOOD name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold” (Proverbs 22:1).

Our Lord Jesus says: “[WOE UNTO YOU THAT ARE RICH]; for ye have received your consolation” (Luke 6:24).


“[HOW HARDLY SHALL THEY THAT HAVE RICHES ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD]” (Luke 18:24).  


“[THEREFORE] take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? But [SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD, AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS; AND ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU]” (Matthew 6:31).


“[FOR WHAT SHALL IT PROFIT A MAN, IF HE SHALL GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND LOSE HIS OWN SOUL]? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Mark 8:36-37).


“No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. [YE CANNOT SERVE GOD AND MAMMON]” (Luke 16:13).


“[LABOUR NOT FOR THE MEAT WHICH PERISHETH, BUT FOR THAT MEAT WHICH ENDURETH UNTO EVERLASTING LIFE], which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed” (John 6:26-27).


James, the brother of Jesus put into prospective our lifetime when he asked: “Hath not God chosen the [POOR OF THIS WORLD RICH IN FAITH, AND HEIRS OF THE KINGDOM] which he hath promised to them that love him?” (James 2:5).


“Laying up in store for themselves a [GOOD FOUNDATION AGAINST THE TIME TO COME], that they may lay hold on [ETERNAL LIFE]” (1 Timothy 6:19).


“For ye are all the children of God by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24).


Every day we must to manage with whatever God has blessed us in our life, and LIVE RIGHTEOUSLY IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORD OF GOD: THE TRUTH; knowing that ONE DAY IN FAITH, WE WILL OBTAIN HIDDEN TRUE RICHES (Proverbs 8:17–21, 21:21) (Matthew 24:36) (Revelation 11:18).

“For the [WRATH OF GOD] is revealed from heaven [AGAINST ALL UNGODLINESS AND UNRIGHTEOUSNESS OF MEN, WHO HOLD THE TRUTH IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS]” (Romans 1:18).

Whatever is now taking place and will continue to take shape in the coming years in the world, and on whatever road we find ourselves on this earth, let us always be reminded that GOD IS GOOD (Psalm 73:1). “Depart from evil, and [DO GOOD]; and dwell for evermore” (Psalms 37:27). “[AND WE KNOW THAT ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THEM THAT LOVE GOD], to them who are the called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). “Glory ye in his holy name: let the [HEART] of them rejoice that seek the LORD. Seek the LORD, and his strength: [SEEK HIS FACE EVERMORE]” (Psalm 105:3-4). “Blessed be the LORD for [EVERMORE]. Amen, and Amen” (Psalm 89:52).

The POWER OF GOD and HIS ONLY BEFOTTEN SON (Genesis 1:1-31) (John 1:1-4, 14, 3:16-18): Human beings who die in JESUS CHRIST NEVER SEE DEATH: BELIEVE THIS! (John 8:51, 10:19, 27-30).

  GOD is a LIVING GOD: “[FOR HE IS NOT A GOD OF THE DEAD, BUT OF THE LIVING]: for all live unto him” (Luke 20:38). GOD GAVE HUMANS THE BREATH OF LIFE, BUT THEN CAME DEATH. At the apex of time, Adam and Eve did not BELIEVE the word of GOD: the TRUTH (Genesis 2:16-17, 3:2–3) and instead believed the LIES of the devil, aka Satan (Genesis 3:4), that “crooked serpent” (Job 26:10). As a consequence ALL human beings were CONDEMNED TO DEATH. However, God then sent his only begotten Son Jesus, at the right time, in the fullness of time, to bring and to spread the WORD OF LIFE: “[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15). The Apostle Paul gives a clear understanding when he said: “Therefore as [BY THE OFFENCE OF ONE] judgment came upon all men to [CONDEMNATION]; even so [BY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF ONE THE FREE GIFT] came upon all men unto justification of life” (Romans 5:18). “[FOR SINCE BY MAN CAME DEATH], by man came also the resurrection of th

If we know to say “Thank you” to another human being when an act of kindness is done for us, then we MUST GIVE THANKS TO GOD because he CREATED ALL THINGS (Genesis 1:1). “For all the earth is mine” (Exodus 19:5). Furthermore, we must especially GIVE GOD THANKS for the promise of ETERNAL LIFE through JESUS CHRIST. “[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15). “For God so loved the world, that he gave his [ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], that whosoever [BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]” (John 3:16). “And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now [COMMANDETH ALL MEN EVERY WHERE TO REPENT]: Because he hath [APPOINTED A DAY], in the which he will [JUDGE THE WORLD] in [RIGHTEOUSNESS] by that [MAN WHOM HE HATH ORDAINED]; whereof he hath [GIVEN ASSURANCE UNTO ALL MEN], in that he hath [RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD]” (Acts 17:30-31). “[FOR AS THE FATHER RAISETH UP THE DEAD, AND QUICKENETH THEM; EVEN SO THE
