He that must be rich will be poor

Text: 2Cor.8:9
  For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.



Message:
  Jesus as the richest man both in heaven and on earth became poor for a purpose, and its a greater purpose for all humanity. Its a great wisdom to become poor so to be rich,how to become poor so as to become rich?
1. Don't buy car if you only have money to buy one,least the car have an accident and can not be repaired you will have to go back the formal level of 'foot wagon'

2. Give your best to the service and the responsibility in your hands,because in pouring out yourself as a drink is your being made great.

3. As a student you must be ready to share your wisdom and knowledge with your mates,because you shall be made known to the world one day for the unpaid services you rendered.

4. As a salary earner or business man you must eat a bit lower to your fiancial standard,least people see you and come for help and you are unable to help.don't eat with your two hands.

5. Don't struggle to buy a used car,because it may become the source of trouble and cause unnecesary spending which eventually turns you to a nursing father;I mean nursing the car like a child,since its a problematic one.

6. Don't buy expensive cloth so as to impress friends, expensive cloth doesn't mean you are rich,but makes you look attractive.

7. Don't use your Generating set,Home theatre etc to disturb neighbours especially if you don't have property else where,its foolish to let people think you're rich while you're poor.
   People will honor and move close to you by what you possess thinking they may be helped so if you can't help them,then you have failed them.

Note:
  People respect you by the wealth you display,but they love and remember you by the help you rendered.

Prayer:
  Oh Lord! Give me wisdom to live and be rich both in the spirit and in wealth in Jesus name.
