LAYING GOOD FOUNDATION FOR PROPERITY
1 TIMOTHY 4:12
12 Let
no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in
conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. Be an example for
believers in word, in conduct (or manner of life), in love, in spirit, in
faith, and in purity. That’s living for God. And living for God is profitable!
When you
live for God, you will see a difference in your life—in your job, in your
family, in your finances, and in your health. Godliness is profitable in all
things. You will also see a difference in the lives of those around you.
Godliness pays! How is godliness “profitable”? You see, God made an investment
in us as believers, and He wants to realize some returns on His investment! We
talk about our inheritance in Christ Jesus. But God has an inheritance in us,
and He desires that it produce a high profit.
I believe that
God not only desires for us to be saved (and thank God, He has remitted our
sins), but He also wants us to bring glory to His Name after we are saved. That
will help bring God great dividends for His investment in us!
You know,
friends, godliness is not a hindrance to success. It’s exactly the opposite.
Godliness is profitable unto all things! It’s profitable unto protection,
promotion, and prosperity.
