Corrupted? Moth-eaten?

Good morning! Lots of things may happen, but we must always remember, "God is good all the time, all the time God is good." Another day will begin making history in your life, right now you are seeing history walk past you. Are you happy with your life the way it is? OR, does it need to change?

James 5:2,3 "Your wealth is rotting away, and your fine clothes are moth-eaten rags.Your gold and silver have become worthless."

One characteristic of prophetic literature is to view the future as though it were present. Is rotting away and are moth-eaten pictures the effects of riches as already having occurred.

In verse 3 King James "Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days." This testifies to the vanity of riches. Eat flesh as fire, possibly James uses this to contrast the array of mortal bodies to their final state. The last days should be a time for securing heavenly treasure, not earthly wealth.

So, what do you have in your store house? Is it moth-eaten, rusted, or do you have the riches of God? We cannot outgive God! We cannot excape God! But we can praise God, let Him be first in our life, and prepare to enjoy the riches of eternal life with God! Not burning in the fiery hell for eternity! Rejoice! Praise God! Thank you for reading today. Love you all.
