Ecclesiastes 10:19 (New King James Version)
A feast is made for laughter,
And wine makes merry;
But money answers everything.
Many Christians and non-Christians will be surprised to learn that this place still in the Bible … but it is.
On the surface it may seem materialistic “secular” or “carnal.”
But note that the Scripture not say, money is the “right” or “completely” or “definitive” answer to everything. He said simply and correctly, “answers all money.”
And it is not true that money answers everything?
In general, both the problems we have in life that can be corrected, or less stressful for us, we either more money or better money management.
Let us for a second look and see whether that is correct. Lets look at some areas that many of us face in our daily life or
Natural Disasters
After natural disasters such as the terrible earthquake in Haiti, let me first say that we do not know why God allows such terrible things happen.
What we do know is that even in the midst of miracles, like the incredible stories of survival, the money is always necessary to try to alleviate the pain of the survivors to help them, and finally to these communities, cities, states and nations to build .
In this situation, money is not the whole answer, but it is certainly a response if necessary.
Marriages and relationships
It is no secret that many couples discussing and unmarried, and often break, separate, or divorce disputes money. Usually it is the lack of money, or passing one or more parties.
The lack of money brings stress and strain for the whole family, since it to feed more people to buy clothes, and other obligations such as health insurance, mortgage payments and tuition. The list of accusations against the family seems endless when it is not enough money for all.
More money or better management of the money can usually answer or a solution much needed in these situations.
Church work
It is a known fact that the churches do not function without money. We know that there is a known fact, because church leaders are often quick to tell you that when it is time to collect the offer
It is often very ironic that the same church leaders who devote part or sermon can tell you is how UN-money important in your life … Then turn right and try to convince you how important it is that you as much money as you can afford may not (or not) be in the church.
It’s like a contradiction, if we want to hear what we say sometimes.
Yes, money is needed to fund the work of God in the world if the money is a “response” in this area.
Completion
If we reflect for a moment, we can see that the amount of money we have available for every aspect of our lives touched. The news that we remove the phrase “money answers everything.”
Yes respond to the money did not know whether to offer assistance in natural disasters, feed our families pay for higher education, or funding for spreading the good news of Jesus Christ for all.
The sooner we fight this truth Financial embrace, this “secret Bible cease, and against them, then the sooner we adjust to the situation, a way of thinking and way of life of financial abundance.
