The Commerce Bank Review

What, then, is the correct attitude for the Christian to have toward wealth? To seek God’s purpose for what is supplied to him.

It is important for the Christian to trust God in every circumstance. If we believe that God really loves us and will give us only that amount of money hat we can handle without worry, we can have perfect peace in finances. But not until we have committed our entire resource to Him.

It becomes clear that money is a training ground for God to develop (and for us to discover) our trustworthiness. “If therefore you have not been faithful in the use of unrighteous Mammon, who will entrust the true riches to you?”

Why do Christians have difficulty trusting God in this area? We really don’t believe that He will only do the best for us. So we have the tendency to want to withhold a part of what we have. But until a Christian has experienced freedom in the area of money, he will never experience God’s total plan for his life.
