“May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money.” Acts 8:20
Although this Simon believed in Jesus for his salvation, his heart was still set on the things of this world, such as money and power. Peter stood and rebuked Simon sharply, not condemning him, but to rescue him. As believers, we must always be concerned of what we set our hearts upon. Matthew 6:24 tells us “You cannot serve God and wealth.” If you have received Christ Jesus and you continue to approach situations with worldly goals and ambitions, there is something terribly wrong. It is time to reevaluate your priorities. We cannot buy our way into heaven. We cannot get to heaven by belonging to a particular denomination. There is only one way and that is true acceptance of Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Time is getting shorter for each of us, but for as long as God gives us our next breath, there is still time. Always strive to be obedient to God in heaven. JESUS IS LORD!
PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
