1 Timothy 6:17

Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.

 

Philippians 4:12-13

12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.  13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

 

Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you the TRUE VALUE OF CONTENTMENT.

 

THREE REASONS FOR CHRISTIAN HAPPINESS

• Your bad things will turn out for GOOD.

• Your good things can’t be TAKEN AWAY. 

• Your best things are YET TO COME.

 

1 Timothy 6:7

For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.

 

Job 1:21

“Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised.”

 

“His love in time past,
Forbids me to think,
He’ll leave me at last,
In troubles to sink.

By prayer let me wrestle,
Then He will perform,
With Christ in my vessel,
I smile at the storm.”

John Newton

 

Ask the Holy Spirit to cover your HEART WITH HIS GRACE.

 

1 Timothy 6:8

But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.

 

1 Timothy 6:18

Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.

 

Ask the Holy Spirit to show you the FREEDOM OF SIMPLICITY.

 

1 Timothy 4:18-19

18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.

 

Luke 11:42

“Woe to you Pharisees, because you give God a tenth of your mint, rue and all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without leaving the former undone."
