...You cannot serve God and mammon." "In Luke 16:13 the Greek word for "serve" means "serve as a slave." Here The Lord indicates that to serve Him requires us to love Him, giving our hearts to Him, and to cleave to Him. Thus we are released from the occupation and usurpation of mammon (riches, wealth, desire to become wealthy, etc.) so that we may serve The Lord wholly and fully. The Lord emphasizes here that to serve Him we must overcome the enticing deceitful mammon of unrighteousness." Life-study of Luke p. 309. Lord we love You and give our hearts to be occupied with You. We hate mammon, and desire to serve You by loving You.
