"Contentment with God is great gain", yet many in this world have abandoned the word of God for the riches of this world.Many in the pulpits around the world are not feeding the flocks of God, but fleecing God's flocks.Many have begun to feed off of those Jesus died to save,and the church Jesus died for have become nothing more than a money making scheme.Money seems to be the new weapon used by the enemy to turn hearts from God.
Selfish pride and greed vs.Integrity and Honesty,pride mixed with greed is an excellent recipe for ruin.God knows when one's heart and thoughts are turned against Him.People who are trying to obtain wealth the world's way and trying their best to keep up with the Joneses will be in constant turmoil. This kind of self-centered behavior will lead to their demise. Taking bribes,cheating the poor,fleecing the people, and using unlawful ways to get money bring trouble on the person and his or her household. A wise man asks God to control his actions.God's ways feel safe and comfortable to him.Integrity, honesty,sincerity are characteristics the wise man craves.God i spleased with this person,and he will stand on his behalf.
God is delighted wth those who bend their knee before Him in reverent fear,employ the holy spirit to lead,and hungrily search the Scripture.God distances Himself from the defiant.Those who are blinded by the gods of this world, chasing after empty riches and false promises of the deciever.The wicked say,"Get away from us,God,"and He replies,"Okay,I will". He refuses to come to their assistance when they are in need.
