Jesus warned, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions” (Luke 12:15). “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal… You cannot serve both God and money” (Matthew 6:19, 24b). Greed and a desire for riches are traps that bring ruin and destruction. “The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil,” and Christians are warned, “Do not put your trust in wealth” (see 1 Timothy 6:9-10, 17-18). Covetousness, or having an excessive or greedy desire for more, is idolatry. Ephesians 5:5 says, “For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person – such a man is an idolater – has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.” The principle to remember is contained in Hebrews 13:5: “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’” The love of money is a sin because it gets in the way of worshiping God. Jesus said it was very hard for rich people to enter the Kingdom of God. When the rich young ruler asked Jesus what he should do to inherit eternal life, Jesus told him to sell all his possessions and give the money to the poor. “When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth” (see Matthew 19:16-22). By instructing him to give up his money, Jesus pointed out the young man’s main problem: greed or a love of money. The man could not follow Christ because he was following money. His love of this world interfered with his love for God.We are to serve God, not waste our time trying to become rich (Proverbs 23:4). Our heart’s desire should be to store up riches in heaven and not worry about what we will eat or drink or wear. “But seek first [God’s] kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well” (see Matthew 6:25-34)

Matthew 4:17 From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.Repent means to "change your mind about" or "to turn away from." If you make a decision to turn away from your sins, that means you are walking away all of your sins, no matter how many of them there may be. ... You know He will forgive you when you genuinely repent through the Word of God(1 John 1:9 & Hebrews 4:14-16)

. Hebrews 11:25 Choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. ..James 1:14-15 But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.

Nothing demonstrates Jesus’s love more powerfully than the Cross...Jesus wasn’t forced to die. He wasn’t overpowered, outnumbered, or tricked into it. He chose the Cross because He loves you and me. Jesus’ passionate love for us took Him to the Cross — with its pain, humiliation, and complete separation from God & then on to the resurrected life that means victory over sin and death for you and me. What passion! What amazing grace! What indescribable love! Jesus, thank You for dying on the Cross for our sins & teach us to live a life of passionate thanks. Ephesians 3:17-18 I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power… to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ
