Colossians 3:2 ESV
Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.
The earth isn't all bad. There isn't necessarily anything intrinsically wrong with things like money, sex and power. Yet we mustn't set our minds on them.
This world is passing away. There won't be any money, sex, or worldly power in eternity. We need to get our priorities right.
Jesus said we can't serve God and money. The love of money is an abomination to God, Dr. Luke tells us. We can't be worldly and godly at the same time.
If we claim to belong to Jesus, we must change from worldly to godly. We're not to horde stuff in this life. Instead, we're to invest in the kingdom of heaven.
'Sovereign Father God, please help us to get our priorities right and to worship you. For we ask in our Saviour's name, amen'.
