MEMORISE: But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth….Deuteronomy 8:18

BIBLE TEXT: Ecclesiastes 7:12

12 For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.

MESSAGE:

Many years ago, my first son, who was a teenager at the time, asked for a new pair of shoes. I told him that buying a new pair of shoes was not part of my budget for that month. However, when he insisted, I suggested that he join the bricklayers at the site where we were building the first auditorium in Redemption City. At that time, church workers used to volunteer for such church projects while the employed labourers got paid. Within a few days of working, my son got enough funds to buy himself a pair of shoes! This was his first attempt at making money as a teenager. Now, as a pastor, he is doing well in his business and financing kingdom projects.

My dear child, there is dignity in labour. The earlier you start earning money through honest means, the more likely you will be to inculcate a savings culture because money that is earned through sweat is usually spent wisely. Have a conversation with your parents about getting jobs that will not disturb your education. For instance, if you like teaching, you can hold tutoring classes for children in your neighbourhood in your spare time and charge a fee. You can also earn from writing story books or articles for Christian blogs, making baby accessories for sale, baking, et cetera.

ACTION POINT:
There are many honest ways to make money: find the one that suits you.

QUIZ:
According to the New Testament, who was the first disciple that Jesus called?

HYMN 1: Let Us With A Gladsome Mind

1.⁠ ⁠Let us, with a gladsome mind,
Praise the Lord, for He is kind;
For His mercies shall endure
Ever faithful, ever sure.

2.⁠ ⁠Let us sound His name abroad,
For of gods He is the God;
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

3.⁠ ⁠He with all-commanding might
Filled the new-made world with light;
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

4.⁠ ⁠All things living He doth feed;
His full hand supplies their need;
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure. 2

5.⁠ ⁠He His chosen race did bless
In the wasteful wilderness;
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

6.⁠ ⁠He hath with a pious eye
Looked upon our misery;
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

7.⁠ ⁠Let us with gladsome mind
Praise the Lord, for He is kind;
For His mercies shall endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
