Matthew 16:26
What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul.

Jim Carrey once said, I wish everyone could get rich and famous and have everything they ever dreamed of, so they could see that’s not the answer. So, even if you gained the whole world, the Bible says without God, you still come up empty. But if you do the opposite and empty yourself for God, Jesus says you’ll gain in every way.

Psalm 90:12
Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

When you take a minute and number your days, you realize you may not have as many as you think. And hopefully, that will cause you to gain more understanding and wisdom with the time you do have on earth. What will you do with your days?

Philippians 1:21
For me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

Whether Paul lived or died, his focus was on one thing… Christ. If he died, he knew he would be with Jesus for the rest of eternity. If he lived, his focus was living for Jesus by sharing the Gospel with anyone and everyone he met. To Paul, it really was that simple. Let’s learn to let our focus for living and dying be all about Christ.

1 Timothy 6:6-7
But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world.

The world tells you that money and likes on social media will make you content, but in God’s economy contentment isn’t based on what you hold in your hands, but what you hold in your heart. Since you came into this world with nothing and will go out of it with nothing, it makes sense that nothing will satisfy you but what you gain from knowing the Lord.

1 Chronicles 16:29
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and come before Him. Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness.

If your friend gave you a gift for your birthday, you’d never go thank your neighbor for that gift because it wasn’t from them. Yet we’ve been given so many gifts by the Creator of the Universe and yet we don’t often utter our thanks to Him. In fact, most of the time, we take them for granted. So, maybe take some time today to simply look around your house, your neighborhood, and your town, and proclaim your thanksgiving to the God who’s worthy of all praise!

Ezekiel 38:23
And so I will show My greatness and My holiness, and I will make Myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.

There’s a day coming when every single person on earth will acknowledge the greatness of God. And they will do that by bowing their knees and confessing with their mouths that Jesus Christ is LORD. Until that day, let’s make it our focus today to proclaim the greatness of our Holy God.
