MEMORY VERSE
Matthew 16:26
[26]For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?.
BIBLE MEDITATION
Luke 12:16-21
[16]And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
[17]And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
[18]And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
[19]And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
[20]But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
[21]So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
MESSAGE
Brethren, Happy New month in Christ Jesus! You shall see the end of this month and it will not swallow you and your family, in the name of Jesus (Amen)
Today's topic revolves around summarizing what our profit would be if we were to achieve everything we desired on earth without accepting Jesus Christ into our lives. The answer to this thought-provoking question is that we would be 100% lost. Our journey towards achieving greatness in life begins at the age of 18 and continues until we reach our 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and even 100s. However, if we fail to accept Jesus Christ into our lives, all our efforts would be ephemeral and short-lived. On the other hand, those who have accepted Christ will have eternal life, as mentioned in the book of John 14:2-3, where our Lord Jesus Christ talks about linking us to internal life.
John 14:2-3KJV
[2]In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
[3]And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
Please do not misunderstand me. Instead of being lazy, strive to be diligent and faithful in selecting chosen career, all while keeping in mind the consciousness of the salvation of our Lord Jesus Christ toward you. Do not have excessive pride in believing that your accomplishments in life are solely due to your physical strength. Remember to give thanks to God Almighty and give Him all the glory.
Dear brothers and sisters, let us remember that all of our earthly accomplishments and labor ultimately amount to nothing. The only true treasure we can find in this world is the salvation offered by our Lord Jesus Christ. As it is written in Matthew 11:28-30, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
