Wisdom Over Wealth

Advertisements

There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.

“The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. Luke 16: 19-23

Wisdom is essential

Wealth is good

But not vital or

Essential

Godly wisdom takes you

To heaven

But wealth cannot take you

To heaven

However

Wealth with godly wisdom

Will take you to heaven

Any wealth or material gain

That corrodes and obstructs

Wisdom is bad for your soul

Because

It will only take you away from heaven

God in His infinite wisdom and sovereignty

Suspends material wealth and gains

In order to save stubborn souls

Wisdom is the principal thing not wealth

Any preacher that contradicts this

Is not from God

Because focus on materiality

Is what destroys souls

And leads them away from God

Our true focus

Must be on wisdom

And holiness

One thing that I know is this:

A man with wisdom is truly blessed spiritually

And that blessing leads to material blessings

But a man with material wealth

Without godly wisdom

Is truly naked and pathetic

And that nakedness

Will eventually lead

To destruction and hell

Consider this:

The rich man

Went to hell regardless

Of His wealth

And Lazarus was saved

Even though he was poor.

Lazarus had wisdom without wealth

And the rich man had wealth

Without wisdom

Wisdom is true wealth

Choose wisdom

And that wisdom

Will never disappoint

You here or in eternity

It will eventually bring wealth

And prosperity

If you chose wealth

Over wisdom

You will eventually

Crash either in this life

Or/and in eternity

May great grace be upon us

In Jesus name
