Genesis 37:28 they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt.
Joseph’s brothers sold him into slavery for twenty pieces of silver. Judas sold Jesus for thirty pieces of silver. And they counted out to him thirty pieces of silver. (Matthew 26:1)
Jealousy and hatred are powerful spirits that cause people to do unthinkable things. Of course, money always plays a part. The love of money is the root of all evil. (1 Timothy 6:10)
Today in the news we hear of people in abortion clinics selling the organs of babies for big money. I watch this and wonder, what is our world coming to? How can anyone kill a human being and sell its organs for money and have no regrets about doing it?
Greed. The love of money. This has always been a powerful evil spirit that has controlled many people.
In Paul’s second letter to Timothy he wrote: But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power.
These are the days in which we live. The last of the Last Days. And to this I say, Jesus, come quickly.
When Jesus comes He will……..turn the tide
