MP3/iPod - Teaching by Brian Kluth

You cannot serve God “and” money

but you must learn to serve God “with” money.

Read the following verses.  Think and pray about the verse that applies the most to your life.

Luke 16:11-13 (Jesus said) “So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?…No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.”

Proverbs 10:16 The good man’s earnings advance the cause of righteousness. The evil man squanders his on sin.

Matthew 6:19-21 (Jesus said) “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

Proverbs 16:16 How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver!

Proverbs 17:16 Of what use is money in the hand of a fool, since he has no desire to get wisdom?

1 Corinthians 4:2 It is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

The world asks: “What does a person own?”

God asks, “How is the person using what they have been given?”

 

A Christian is one who does not have to consult his bank book

to see how wealthy he really is.

MP3/iPod - Audio true story by Brian Kluth

The Cinderella winter boots

When I was in my 20s, I quit my executive job and joined the missionary staff of a Christian camp in northern Wisconsin. My salary was decreased by 90% but I had great joy in serving the LORD. When winter hit and the snow started to accumulate, I realized I only had city shoes and no warm boots. One morning, I prayed and asked God to send me money so I could buy winter boots. When I checked my mail, I received 3 letters from friends but there was no money in the envelopes. I was a bit discouraged; but then my friend, Larry, came into the camp office carrying a pair of boots and he wondered if anyone needed some warm boots. I told him I did and when I tried them on, I felt like Cinderella because they were my exact size! That day, I learned that God’s provisions were bigger than money.
