“Need An Answer?”
GREETIINGS FROM THE TEMPLE …
“Need An Answer?”
In today’s modern world there is a D.I.Y. (do it yourself) book for just about everything you might need or question. We live in the age of self-help. There are how-to books for arts and crafts – books on how to invest your money – books on discipline (how to use self-control – how to relieve stress – there is even a self-esteem guide). All these books serve a purpose and have one thing in common, an expiration date.
Your arts and crafts project will get old and lose its appeal – your invested money will last until there is a stock market crash – your self-discipline (self-control, stress relief, self-esteem) will continue as long as you put in the work. (I’m ready for your first question.)
Where do I go from here? Was God involved in any of your situations?
How many times do you have to hear:
“Seek Him first!” “Get God involved in everything you do!”
God’s involvement in your plans gives you His Power which you need for sure and lasting accomplishments – which is needed for eternal victory – the things of God victory.
(Next question.)
How do I get eternal victory?
“Lay up your treasures in Heaven.” (This is Biblical Principle) – Pastor Victor S. Brice
“Mercy to the needy is a loan to God, and God pays back those loans in full.” – Proverbs 19:17 (MSG).
During Pastor Brice’s teachings on, “The Benefits of a Believer”, he spoke about laying up treasures in Heaven. Our treasures involve more than just money and possessions, it involves living godly, living for God’s glory, and living for the good of others. Remember, what you give to those in need should be matched by how you live the Word of God.
Righteous giving plus righteous living equals treasures in Heaven.
(Do you still need an answer?)
