A Devotional for such a time as this: - from: Mornings with Tozer ______________ Do Things Possess Us? Nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy. 1 Timothy 6:17 I think a lot of people in our congregations get confused when some learned brother advises us that we must all join in a fervent fight against materialism. If men and women do not know what materialism is, how can they be expected to join the battle? Materialism in its crisis form occurs when men and women created in the image of God accept and look upon matter as the ultimate—the only reality. The advice, We must fight materialism, does not mean that everyone should get a sword and run after a fellow named Material and cut him down. What it does mean is that we should start believing in the fact of Gods Creation and that matter is only a creature of the all-wise and ever-loving God! The believer is not deceived into believing that the physical things we know and enjoy are the ultimate end in themselves. Dear Lord, You are the reality that so many people today fail to see. Make me more sensitive to Your spiritual realm all around me. - via QuickVerse 10 #devotionalforsuchatimeasthis #christjesus #vineofchristministries #theword #studyscripture #god #biblestudy #bible #jesus #faith #dailydevotions #devotional
