ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT

 
Matthew 5:3
 
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." ESV 
 
Being poor in spirit is an attitude of humility toward ourselves that keeps us aware of our total need of God's grace and mercy. Without this attitude, we have no access to the riches of Christ. With it, we have the fullness of the kingdom of heaven right now.
 
Heavenly Father, forgive us when we become prideful and forget that humility is the cloak we wear that reflects Your glory. Be glorified in us we pray in Jesus' name, Amen.

SO WE CAN BE RICH

 
 
2 Corinthians 8:9


"For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that through he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might became rich." ESV


The riches that Christ left to become a man on this earth were not silver and gold. They were the eternal riches of the mysteries of God. When Christ became a man, his poverty was living in a world of sin, greed, and turmoil. Because He willingly and, with joy, gave up being equal with God, we will be free from this poverty stricken world with all its trials and tribulations. We may not be rich with material things in this world. That was not God's purpose. His purpose was for us to enjoy eternity with Him in all the riches of the mysteries of God.


Heavenly Father, forgive us that we think of material things when we think of riches. We cannot fathom all that Christ gave up to come to this earth so that we could be saved. We praise You that He did give up all for us. Give us hearts that seek the true riches of eternal life through Jesus Christ. In His name we pray, Amen.
