Those Who Use The Things Of The World Should Not Become Attached To Them. For The World As We know It Will Soon Pass Away.

Those Who Use The Things Of The World

Should Not Become Attached To Them.

For The World As We know It Will Soon Pass Away.

Scripture

1 Corinthians 7 

31 Those who use the things of the world should not become attached to them. For this world as we know it will soon pass away.

Observation

Stuff … It is so easy to get attached to it! How much stuff are you attached to? I look around and there is so much stuff.

Paul’s reminder to us is that we shouldn’t get attached to it because this world as we know it will soon pass away. Paul was living in a time of crisis.

We are certainly experiencing the same kind of world. Life can change so suddenly. Our country is changing so rapidly. Our world is moving so fast.

Our stuff, our possessions, our wealth, all of it has wings and can fly away. It can be gone in an instant.

Application

 So I will think about this verse today

    “and he will give you all you need from day to day if you live for him and make the Kingdom of God your primary concern.” Matthew 6:33


Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me focus on the most important things today. I pray for Christy Moses and her family as they go through this time of loss. I pray that You comfort them and I pray that they sense Your Presence, Your Power, and Your love today. I pray for our church. I pray that as we approach Easter that You help our focus to be on the important things like the people that live around us, and our extended family that may need a closer relationship with You.
