THE GREEDY MAN!
Bible Text: Philippians 4:8-9
Mr. & Mrs. Eddy had been married for years with no children which prompted Mr. Eddy to marry a 2nd wife despite being jobless due to laziness. Consequently, he decides to offer his 1st wife whom they have both suffered together for money rituals, and while taking her to the herbalist, he lied to her that she would be undergoing a spiritual cleansing for fruitfulness. So happy the Mrs. was, that she thought “Hmm.. my husband loves me”. Therefore, every morning, as a cultured woman, she would clean up the herbalist’s house and even wash their clothes.
One day, the herbalist and his wife were touched by her gestures and asked if she knew the genuine reason of her stay with them. Quickly, Mrs. Eddy knelt down as usual and said, it’s for my fruitfulness. Hence, they revealed her husband’s devilish plans and then gave her a few strategies in which she succeeded in placing the already prepared calabash on her husband’s head instead, and Mr. Eddy, the greedy man became the hunted.
What am I driving at? It’s that:
1. Don’t be lazy (Proverbs 21:25)
2. No matter the condition, love your spouse (Ephesians 5:22-33).
3. If polygamy or polyandry doesn’t kill you, it may ruin your children’s destinies (1 Timothy 3:2)
4. Adultery is sinful (Exodus 20:14, 17, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
5. There is no gain in money rituals (1 Timothy 6:10) or theft (Exodus 20:15) except death (Romans 6:23).
6. No matter how hard the situation is, your attitude and behaviour will always save you (1 Peter 3:13).
7. Be Born Again (Proverbs 14:34)
PRAYER
1. Heavenly Father, please help me to amend my ways, if need be and guide my path to eternity.
IT IS WELL WITH THY SOUL
