2 Corinthians 8:9 (NKJV) ... that you through His poverty might become rich.
For most we do not know financial wealth, it is often considered and some do long for the money that will solve every trouble. However, wealth has never satisfied every problem, it always brings with it more worry. For the very few, riches is a gift to be shared and there is where most come up short.
God created all things therefore He alone owns all, everything a person may possess belongs to God, it then is on lone to us, because we cannot truly posses anything. Jesus brings to you and I all the riches of heaven and earth through the life and death He alone revealed. Philippians 4:19
We become really rich in one way only, that is in the possession of our destiny, when we can control who and what we will be forever. That is something no one has ever purchased, bartered, traded or worked for, this gift of forever is in the hands of One, and only He can give it to whom He chooses.
Jesus left the riches of Glory to enter the poverty of men, and made a way for all to receive eternal life with Him. That is, He gave His life, and all He possesses, that you and I may receive all of His Kingly riches. The moment we ask Jesus to forgive us of our sins and be the center of our lives we inherit the wealth of eternity. Wow, I want that, now, do you?
Heavenly Father You give that we might live with You, what more could we desire? In You alone is life everlasting a gift beyond measure, may we give all we desire away that all You offer we may posses? Thank You, for the Gift of Jesus and Lord, thank You for loving me so much, You died and walked out of the grave to prove I too can live with You forever. Thank You. Amen
