Sermon on the Mount, Part 5 – YouTube

Show Notes:

We are told to store up for ourselves treasures in heaven instead treasures on earth, but the problem is we love and seek after temporal earthly treasures. Have we missed true riches? Are we blinded by the gods of this world and lied to by the deceitfulness of earthly riches?

We will continue to pour everything we have into the gods of this world until we get a new heart and a new spirit.

When the kingdom of God is revealed to us, the Lord Jesus Christ sets us free and causes a shift in our value system. Everything our heart deemed valuable prior to the revelation of the cross goes away when we discover the kingdom of God. We begin to prize and store up for ourselves the wealth of eternal life and eternal inheritance.

We must ask ourselves these questions:  Are we rich in God, or do we have a leanness of soul? How is our treasure in heaven? Did our new birth shift our value systems where we do not value the world any longer? Have we shifted into the kingdom of God, in kingdom bidding, and kingdom business?

It is about God’s economy and God’s kingdom.  God doesn’t want your money.  He wants you.  He wants all of you.
