Rooted in Biblical Wisdom!
Wisdom is a skill in living that begins with fearing God, then progresses to guarding your mind, choosing your companions, controlling your body, monitoring your words, pursuing your work, managing your money, and loving your neighbor. Very simple. But that’s it. And when you’ve done that, you’ve learned wisdom. It’s vital to be taught wisdom. For example, as a father, if I fail to teach my children to fear God, the devil will teach them to hate God. If I fail to teach my children to guard their mind, the devil will teach them to have an open mind. If I fail to teach my children to obey their parents, the devil will teach them to rebel and break his parents’ hearts. If I fail to teach my children to select their companions carefully, the devil will choose them for them. If I fail to teach my children to control their body, the devil will gladly teach them to give it completely over to their lusts. If I fail to teach my children to enjoy speech that is honorable to God, the devil will fill their mouths with filth. If I fail to teach my children to pursue their work, the devil will make them lazy. If I fail to teach them to manage their money, the devil will teach them to waste it on riotous living. If I fail to teach them to love their neighbor, the devil will gladly teach them to love only themselves. And the only reason I can pass any of this wisdom on to my children is because God has graciously made it all available in the Bible.

According to Scripture, you have the right to have money. But if you love money, you will corrupt yourself, and it will draw you into sin. That's why 1 Timothy 6:9-10 says, "The love of money is the root of all sorts of evil." It's not money that's evil; it's the love of it, and you can have a lot of it and not love it, and you can have none of it and love it like crazy. It's a question of attitude. And that's why verse 6 says, "Godliness actually is a means of great gain when accompanied by contentment." So godliness and contentment go together. And contentment is what marks the heart that is not materialistic. Look at verse 8, "If you have food and you have clothes, be content." How many clothes do you need? How much food do you need? How much of a house do you need? How much of this and that—I mean, where have you gone beyond what is necessary? Listen, those who want to become rich fall into temptation, a snare, and many foolish and harmful desires, which plunge men into ruin and destruction. Loving money is destructive. You're going to fall into all kinds of temptations and traps when you chase money. I'm not talking about working hard. I'm not talking about doing the best you can, working with excellence and diligence, and being as creative and as innovative and as clever and as thoughtful and as zealous and as passionate and as careful as you can be in your work so you can honor the Lord in your work and so that you can do the very best in your work. No, I'm talking about pursuing money as your goal rather than excellence. The love of money plunges people into temptation, traps, harmful desires, ruin, and destruction. And people who have longed after money have wandered away from the faith. It sends you away from the faith. How? It sends you on a journey away from what is right, good, holy, and true, and you wind up piercing yourself with a lot of unnecessary pain. Loving money only causes you to inflict wounds on yourself. That's why verse 11 says, "Flee from these things." For money, Achan led Israel's army to defeat and brought death to himself and his entire family. For money, Balaam sinned against the truth, against God, and attempted to curse God. For money, Delilah betrayed Samson and ultimately brought the death of thousands. For money, Ananias and Sapphira became the first hypocrites in the church, and God executed them as a testimony against their love of money. For money Judas sold Jesus. The love of money will also cause you to stop trusting in God. Job 31:24 says, "If my happiness depends on wealth, it would mean I had denied the God of heaven." Therefore, a love of money not only leads you to forget God and stop trusting Him, but it can also result in compromising your values. It's been said everybody has his price. And at what point do your principles disappear off the table? What's your price? It has been said that when money speaks, the truth is suddenly silent. People sell out for money all the time. They sell out for position, prestige, power, and popularity. They're not willing to say the truth. They're not willing to hold to their virtues and their values and their integrity for money. Loving money will also make you ungrateful because no matter what you have, you're not thankful because you want more. Loving money will also make you proud because it's so hard to be humble when you love it. You will also rob God, because you're going to hold back what's His, and it makes you indifferent to others. This is what the love of money does. Therefore, love God, not money. Be faithful, because it's a stewardship from God that is directly related to your capacity for joy in eternity. And use your money wisely to purchase friends for eternity. Repent and believe! GTY.org (42-207) - Escaping Materialism
