GREED MAKES A DANGEROUS MISTRESS

When Jesus said the love of money is the root of all evil, that pretty well describes how much of the world functions. Proverbs 15:27 tells us, "he that is greedy of gain troubles his own house." Indeed, greed makes a dangerous Mistress.
However, the spirit of greed is not limited to money; it can affect many other life functions. Greed can be described as never having enough of whatever you're looking at or desiring. It can affect the way you eat or the way you work. One more pork chop or just a few more hours of work can be orchestrated by greed.
Of course, we know that food is essential; it's necessary for life. And work is a part of who we are, accomplishing those things we love to do.
What does that mean when the scriptures tell us that greed troubles my house?
After years of a father giving his entire time to work, neglecting his children and his marriage, you may hear him say; well, I did it all for you. By now, his wife may be gone, and his children have been neglected to the point of brokenness because he had to work one more hour.
Some people blame the desire for more coming from poverty, never having enough as a child. I'm sure that could have something to do with it, but the enemy of our soul will use anything convenient to manipulate our life.
This is where the healing of the soul through Jesus Christ is critical. Greed cannot be your master if you have confidence in his supply and his plan for your life. Nothing can drive us into despair or ruin when our heart is healed, and our faith is restored because of our knowledge of his love for us.
Greed does make a dangerous Mistress, but Jesus Christ is the master of all things.
