WHAT JESUS TAUGHT ABOUT MONEY with Rev. M. O Odubanjo 

Mark 10:17

It’s important that in church we teach strong lessons about money. It is such a central factor in our lives as human beings in general, it’s important that we have the right orientation about it, that we have the right relationship with money because like somebody once said, money is a very good servant but a very terrible master. When money is your master and it’s driving you, it will drive you crazy. It is good to have money but it’s not good for money to have you.

Key Problems

•When you can’t begin to think beyond what your expected salary or income is, then you are trusting in riches; when you trust in riches you will begin to find that when you have a lot of money, you feel very confident about life; like nothing can happen.

Josh 1:8 Good success is what comes when you pay attention to God’s word.
