We want to explore the impact of money on marriages and family life, ministry and missions, nations, life and faith, etc. Without doubt, money has a great and significant impact on ministry and missions, marriages and family life, life and faith, and even nations.
Money is good but money can’t buy nor give life
The first things you need to understand about the impact of money on family, marriage, ministry, and nations is the fact that money is good but money can’t buy life. Don’t chase money as if money can buy life; it can neither buy nor give life.
We know that, money is a medium of exchange in modern society. It is important to understand that money is not evil; money is good and that is why God gives power to His people to make wealth. MONEY IS GOOD but remember money can neither buy nor give life. Stop chasing money and being ruled by money. Let us understand that money can’t buy nor give life! Simple!
Money provides a defence but can’t give life
Ecclesiastes 7:12 KJV — For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.
Proverbs 10:15 KJV — The rich man’s wealth is his strong city: The destruction of the poor is their poverty.
Money answers all things under heaven, but money can’t buy life
Ecclesiastes 10:19 KJV — A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.
We are able to get more things done with a little money, than with no money at all. Money gives speed but wisdom is profitable to direct.
With money we get more things done. May the Lord give us money to do more for the kingdom.
Money can make you a servant of others; may the Lord bless you with some money!
Proverbs 22:7 KJV — The rich ruleth over the poor, And the borrower is servant to the lender.
Even in international diplomacy, richer nations dictate to poorer ones. I pray that God will put some money in many pockets, so that we can rule in our sphere of influence. Receive the grace and power to make money, Amen!
Money helps the believer to walk honestly towards them that are without
1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 KJV — and that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; [12] that ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
Many people are walking dishonestly and compromising on so many things because they don’t have money. Money helps you to walk honestly towards them that are without, people outside of the faith. Money will save you from living a fake life.
Stay blessed
