Colossians 3 vs 1-2
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
- Affection is another name for love, desire, or likeness.
- In simple terms, the Bible says, “set your love on things above”.
- If you claim to be a believer, set your love in heaven.
- As a believer, you cannot pursue the things of this world and make heaven.
- Proverbs 10 vs 22 says The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. Also, Proverbs 14 vs 12 says There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
- Just set your affection on things above.
- It is God who promotes and not by our strength or power
- God himself promoted Joseph, David, and Samuel.
- The blessings of the Lord make a man rich without adding sorrow unto it.
- Do not set your affection on money. The love of money is the root of all evil.
- You cannot pursue the desire of the world and make heaven.
- Contentment with godliness is a great gain.
Prayer
- Lord, help me to set my affections on the things of heaven in Jesus name.
