Keep your Wealth Written by D. Jonathan Fourie
Exo 20:23 You shall not make [gods to share] with Me [My glory and your worship]; gods of silver or gods of gold you shall not make for yourselves.
In no uncertain terms can anyone compete with God. He is a jealous God. How is it possible that in times we as humans are so short sited. When we have it all, we think that we have made it and nothing can touch us. How wrong can we be.
Luk 12:20 But God said to him, You fool! This very night they [the messengers of God] will demand your soul of you; and all the things that you have prepared, whose will they be?
The only way to honor God and building fences around your wealth is to give it away. This in itself sounds insane. How can I keep it and give it away? If you want to keep it, you have to share it. Always give what you can afford to others less fortunate. Money that is surplus should be shared, not stored. Wealth is what money can do for you regarding other people. Go on bless them.
It is like the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ, He gave it all so that we can be saved. He also said that he who wants to save his life will loose it and he that will loose his life because of Him will save it. The seed has to be sown in order to produce more seed just like that. God works in principles.
Principles, principles, God is working in principles. By knowing them and abiding in them we will build a fence around our wealth and keep it.
Rev 3:18 Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be [truly] wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see. Written by D. Jonathan Fourie
