Misused Verses - Week 3 - 1 Timothy 6:10


1 Timothy 6:10  “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil."
It is not THE root. Just one of the roots that can infect our heart and passion and poison us.

1. Being rich isn't the main problem.  It’s the desire to be rich that can corrupt us.
2. Is our desire for stuff greater than our desire to know and follow Christ?
3. How you spend your money reflects where your heart is.
4. What is really keeping you from fully trusting in God?  Is it selfish desires to have more?  Is it fear, guilt, or uncertainty?  Are you unsure how your friends/family will react?

Pray to God to eliminate those fears that keep you from fully trusting in Him!  Keep seeking God's wisdom on how to live the best life possible by following his commands and teachings!

Read 1 Timothy 6:6-10 for deeper insight.
