Sermon Illustrations

In the world today...we are trying to marry Christianity to all the wrong things...we are trying to marry it to prosperity...popularity...personalities...politics...and beloved...it ain't working 'cause it's broken!

And yet many ministers preach a PROSPERITY DOCTRINE today because it feeds our carnality.

They preach worship God, follow God…and prosperity will come your way…and maybe it will…maybe.

But we forget what Jesus said in MATTHEW 6:30... "Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?"

So hear me...working for God so wealth will find you is all wrong...let God choose what he wants for you.

Look, why don't these same Preachers who preach that PROSPERITY DOCTRINE go to poor and impoverished 3rd world countries and preach it where they need it?

You know why...because God may bless the righteous...but He don't make them wealthy.

That comes through hard work...good business practices...and many more things like that.

And there are a lot of Satan loving ...Satan worshiping people out there that are wealthy too.

Yet...I do know wealthy people and many of them are lovely, fine Christians and I believe God lets them have a ministry in supplying needs through their wealth...but that is not why they are wealthy.
