(KJV.) ST. MATTHEW 16:26
(26) For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for this soul?
WHAT IS THE PROFIT?
Grace be unto you! We live in a lustful world full of distractions; no matter how Christ like we are, there is always something to distract us from the ways of righteousness; therefore, let us be mindful of what we perceive on daily basis, associate with people of the same charisma to do the will of Jesus, never sidetrack from righteousness to covetousness.
Beware! many times, the enemy of our souls, sets up traps of failures, loopholes of deceptions for the man to be derailed from the righteousness of Jesus Christ by controlling our mindsets to focus more on the material things than things of the spirit; don't read me wrong, we all love the things of this world, matter of fact, Jesus do give us our hearts desires when we pray unto him, Matthew 7:7; at times more than what we anticipated to come from him, however, as we enjoy his blessings, let us not get carried into greediness yearning to acquire more than necessary in other to be competitive with others, forgetting that the things of this world are vanities, cf. Eccl. 1:2. and will perish with the wind; as we enjoy the blessings, share with others as well; never forget to acknowledge the resource, always give thanks, praise and worship the Father through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Beloved, the question is, what will be the end results of our sojourn on earth, if at the end of our lives, we gain all the riches we desires to have on earth, but lose our souls to Satan, is there a price to pay for salvation? No price! Jesus already paid the price by his sufferings, crucifixion and resurrection; what the spirit is saying to us is, life is too short to worry about things of this world, the have's and have not's, focus on salvation more than the things of this world, you are blessed of the Lord, come into his finish works, enjoy yourself and walk in my ways into eternal life. Love one another as we love ourselves! Peace and Love be unto you! Amen and Amen!
WORD OF ASSERTION:
(KJV.) Ecclesiastes 2:17 Therefore I hated life; because the work that is wrought under the sun is grievous unto me: for all is vanity and vexation of spirit.
