Lessons from Laodicea Measure the “success” of your life by your character and the degree to which you allow Christ into every “room” in your heart.

Keep money in its rightful place. Lessons from Laodicea Keep money in its rightful place. No one can be a slave of two masters, since either he will hate one and love the other or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot be slaves of God and of money. Matthew 6:24

It is hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven It is hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God. Matthew 19:23-24

Jesus, I welcome you into my heart as my Savior Jesus, I welcome you into my heart as my Savior. Forgive my sins and come into my life. I do not want to be a lukewarm Christian. I invite you into every room in my heart – including my “money room.” I pledge to fight against the god of money and to be financially generous to Your Church.
