In our exploration of money and faith, we're reminded of Jesus' profound teaching: 'Keep yourselves free from the love of money.' This isn't just about giving; it's about our entire relationship with wealth. The story of Jesus' temptation in the wilderness shows us how even He was tested with worldly riches and power. But Jesus demonstrates that when we're truly aligned with God's purpose, material temptations lose their grip on us. This 'law of access' concept challenges us to examine what we're giving power to in our hearts. Are we setting ourselves up as 'bait' by relying on wealth for security? Instead, we're called to grow into prosperity gradually, learning to be trustworthy with little before being entrusted with much. This journey of faith and finance isn't just about accumulating wealth, but about expanding our capacity for righteousness and trust in God's provision.
