FREE YOURSELF FROM GREED

FREE YOURSELF FROM GREED

MESSAGE: 

“But Godliness with contentment is great gain" 1 TIMOTHY 6:6-10


Greed Is commonly recognized as one of the deadly sins that plague mankind. It is defined as “reprehensible acquisitiveness; insatiable desire for wealth” by Online English Dictionary. Greed has its root in covetousness, that is, the wrongful desire for what belongs to others. It drives a person to an excessive desire to acquire or possess more than the person needs or deserves.

What makes people steal public funds is greed.


It is greed that makes a man to set aside his own wife, or, a woman - her own husband, and run after another.
Greed destroys a destiny, nation, family and ministry. The devil uses it to send so many to hell fire untimely. The Scripture warns in Colossians 3:5, “Put to death therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, Uncleanness, passion, evil desire and covetousness, which is idolatry"

Don't get caught in the web of greed. A life free of greed is a Beautiful one.


You will turn into a blessing to your generation; and honour wiil surround your life if you live a life devoid of greed. Being happy and thankful for the little you have is an antidote to greed and covetousness.

CONTROLLING THOUGHTS

We brought nothing into the world and for sure, we cannot take anything out of it.
