And the man of God answered, 'The Lord is able to give you much more than this.'" 2 Chronicles 25:9 [NKJV] This seemed to be a very important question to Amaziah, the king of Judah, and possibly it is of even more weight for the tried and tempted Christian. To lose money is never pleasant, and when it involves some form of principle, the flesh is not always ready to make the sacrifice. "Why lose that which may be so usefully employed? Can’t the truth itself be bought too dear? What will we do without the money? Remember the children and our small income!" All these things and a thousand more may tempt the Christian to put forth his hand to unrighteous gain, or may keep him from carrying out his conscientious convictions when they involve serious loss. Not all men view these matters in the light of faith; and even with the followers of Jesus, the doctrine of "we must live" has quite sufficient weight. "The Lord is able to give you much more than this" is a very satisfactory answer to the anxious question. Our Father holds the purse strings, and what we lose for His sake He can repay a thousandfold. It is ours to obey His will, and we may rest assured that He will provide for us. The Lord will be no man's debtor at the end. Saints know that a grain of peace of mind is of more value than a ton of gold. He who wraps a worn-out coat around a good conscience has gained a spiritual wealth far more desirable than anything he has lost. God's smile and a dungeon are enough for a true heart, but His frown and a palace would be hell to a gracious spirit. So, let the worst come to the worst, and let all the talents go - we have not lost our treasure, for our treasure is above, (see Luke 18:22) where Christ sits at the right hand of God. (Colossians 3:1) Meanwhile, even now, the Lord makes the meek to "inherit the earth", (Matthew 5:5) and "no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly." (Psalm 84:11) ~ Time for Reflection ~ Trust God with Your Losses When we face loss for doing what is right, let us remember that God can restore us abundantly. Obedience to His will brings lasting peace and treasures far beyond worldly wealth. Amen. ~~ Hope you have enjoyed and have been inspired by this morning's devotional by Charles Spurgeon.
