This Week’s Experience – 9/4/2022

Message

O God, there are two things I ask of you; please don’t deny me of them before I die. First, keep deception and lies far from me.

-Proverbs 30:7-8a

I must start reading the through the filter of the instead of reading the through the filter of the .

Second, give me neither poverty nor riches, but only just enough to satisfy my needs. For if I grow rich, I may deny you and say, “Who is the LORD?” And if I am too poor, I may steal and thus insult God’s holy name.

-Proverbs 30:8b-9

The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil and trouble. Some people want money so much they have given up their faith and caused themselves a lot of pain.

-1 Timothy 6:10

I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.

-Philippians 4:12-13
