Join us as we explore God's ancient wisdom and apply it to our modern lives. His word is as current and relevant today as it was when he inspired its authors more than two and a half millennia ago. The websites where you can reach us are alittlewalkwithgod.com, richardagee.com, or saf.church.

I hope you will join us every week and be sure to let us know how you enjoy the podcast and let others know about it, too. Thanks for listening.

The way to real riches - Episode 7-35, February 4, 2017

Feb 4, 2017

A daily devotional through the recorded words Jesus spoke while He walked alongside us. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com.

  1. Thanks for joining me today for "A Little Walk with God." I'm your host Richard Agee.
  2. Do you ever get junk mail asking you to double and triple and quadruple your money? All you have to do is invest in the sender’s guaranteed get rich investment scheme and you’re on your way to financial independence. It’s a shame it doesn’t work that way. But Jesus has a better idea.
  3. Scripture
    1. John 6:26-29
    2. Jesus: I tell you the truth—you are tracking Me down because I fed you, not because you saw signs from God. Don’t spend your life chasing food that spoils and rots. Instead, seek the food that lasts into all the ages and comes from the Son of Man, the One on whom God the Father has placed His seal.

Crowd: What do we have to do to accomplish the Father’s works?

Jesus: If you want to do God’s work, then believe in the One He sent.

  1. Devotional
    1. I get these emails several times a day from some money management firms that I somehow managed to get on their list. I’ve tried to get off their list, but so far have been unsuccessful in getting rid of their advice.
      1. Best investments
      2. Multiply my money
      3. Stocks, bonds, commodities
      4. Changes every day
      5. If I had invested as they told me to I would be independently wealthy by now
    2. Schemes remind me of Jesus’ words
      1. Get rich quick
      2. Chase after things that don’t last
      3. Try to satisfy life with the latest fad
      4. Doesn’t work
    3. In Matthew, seek first the kingdom of God and all these other things will be given to you as well.
      1. Riches? Maybe, probably not earthly riches because it’s easy to get your eyes off God
      2. Friends? Absolutely, real friends
      3. Joy
      4. Peace
      5. Contentment
      6. Forgiveness
