Abundance of Riches
-
Psalms 49:6-8 says, “those who trust in their wealth and boast of the abundance of their riches? Truly no man can ransom another, or give to God the price of his life, for the ransom of their life is costly and can never suffice,”
Riches are not bad. Money is not bad. However if we trust in those riches we have placed our trust in something that will eventually let us down. There is no amount of money that can pay the price of our soul. We can’t take our money to God and buy the ransom of ourself or anyone else. We need Christ. We need His forgiveness and our trust should always be in Him...not in our wealth.
