Kingdom Wealth Luke 16:11
“11) Therefore if you have not been faithful in the use of unrighteous wealth, who will entrust the true riches to you?” Luke 16:11
Some people look at the accumulation of money as top priority. Many have fallen prey to greed and manifold scandals associated with the love of money.
But Jesus pointed out that the handling of money is little more than a test of character. Those who fail the test of prosperity and become self indulgent, will never be entrusted with the true keys of the kingdom.
Money, no matter how small or great is a mere stewardship from God to see if you can be trusted to put kingdom values above self hedonism. Many have tragically failed this test.
Trustworthy stewards of money become fruitful servants of true kingdom riches. There is a system of wealth the world knows nothing about. It can be summarized as kingdom wealth.
If you have not learned how to master your money for the glory of God, then your money has become your master in place of God! You can have a full bank account but a famished soul when money becomes your master.
