Beyond the riches of this temporary life on earth

Unless the Spirit of God puts eternity in our heart where will we be...its so easy to get tied up in comfort, luxury and temporary material things that this world has to offer.

Romans 12: says "do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind" too many instances we find our focus on success and prosperity of this world... there is a reason Jesus said "My Kingdom is Not of this world" .

Unfortunately, living a righteous kingdom lifestyle seems strange to many but the truth is unless the world has the power to write your name in the “Lambs book of eternal life“, its better to please God than man. However, you must first you must come to know who He is for yourself.

Nevertheless, the more I see the gospel of prosperity on TV and its starting to appear more like Christian motivational speaking and is becoming more difficult to tell the difference between the pure Gospel of Jesus Christ and inspirational feel good (everything is all good) thinking -

Proverbs 16:25 There is a way that SEEMS right to man but the end is death.
