Scripture Reference: Mark 9:23
How many has taken into consideration what the above scripture is telling us? Ever wonder what these things are that are possible? Does it mean that we can be rich and enjoy the best things that this world has to offer? When we learn how to operate in the realm of Gods kingdom, then it should be clear enough to understand that what Jesus said does not refer to the natural realm of this life, but raher to the spiritual realm of things concerning God. Many seemingly fail to realize that the true riches does not consist of the things of this world and so there fore many will end up in a confused state thinking that God perhaps has forsaken them. Jesus himself came not to this world to gain the riches of this world, but rather came to give us life and the more abundantly, but we need to understand what this abundant life consist of. If we fail to know this truth, then this gives Satan a foothold in your life and he can easily steer you away from what God truly wants us to have and enjoy.
Jesus said these words as recorded in Luke 12:15 saying, "And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness; for a man's life consisteth not in the aboundance of the things which he possesseth." Life is not about fulfilling our physical needs only by having in abundance the many things that this world has to offer, but rather Christ came to give us righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost, as Paul tells us in Romans 14:7 that says, "For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost." We need to understand the true purpose as to why Christ came to this earth or Satan will take advatage of us and lead us completely astray from the true riches that God intends for us to have. Many has been deceived into believing that God wants us to have the best this world has to offer, not realizing that the things of this world cannot give one the true peace and satisfaction that is only in Christ. We have promise in Gods word that if we seek first the kingdom and his righteousness and not the things that this world has to offer, then and only then God will see to it that our true needs, which are the things we need to sustain in our life on this earth will be supplied.
So believe what Gods word truly says and you will then begin to understand and enjoy the life that he came to give us and that more abundantly as he said.
