Wisdom Then Money
Foundation Statement: Money never takes
precedence over wisdom/the Word
I.
Proverbs 3:14,
8:10,19,16:16, 20:11-12,15,25
A. What wisdom provides is
more precious than what money can provide; wisdom will keep you safe, happy,
protected, full of peace, give you a long life and money can’t buy those
things; not only that, but wisdom will get the money into your hands too
B. It didn’t say don’t have
gold it says choose wisdom over gold and then you’ll have all the stuff gold
can’t buy and gold too and it won’t destroy you
C. If money has place above
wisdom/the Word, then it’s out of its place
II.
Psalm
19:10,119:14,72,127-Compared to the preciousness of the word gold and money is
nothing
A. Ecclesiastes 4:13-Better
have nothing with a teachable heart, then to be a king who won’t take
correction
III.
1 Kings 3:11-13-Solomon
gave money its proper place under wisdom and God made Him rich
