TODAY’S SCRIPTURE | But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. 1 Timothy 6:9
Recommended Reading | Matthew 6:19-21
Why are investment products required, by law, to issue that warning to investors? Because people want to make money, to get rich. We are ready and willing to invest in something that was profitable in the past hoping it will continue its profitability into the future. But we must remember Paul’s words: The desire to be rich is a temptation and a snare; the desire to be rich is a foolish and harmful lust. There’s nothing wrong with investing wisely to be a good steward. But if we invest impulsively to become rich, we are yielding to a dangerous temptation.
We can’t take wealth with us to heaven—unless we’ve invested in heaven. The fruit of kingdom investments will yield glory to God for eternity.
A man is just as rich as his investment in the bank of heaven.
