For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mt. 16:26

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 

 

Devil says to Jesus:

 

Matthew 4

 

8 Again, the devil taketh HIM (Jesus) up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth HIM all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

 

9 And saith unto HIM,  All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

 

10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and HIM only shalt thou serve.

Absolutely nothing is equal to the Word of God.  That Word God gives us is greater than rubies and greater than reputation and praise of men and greater than all that can be desired in this world.  No husband or wife or children are above the Word God gives us!  The Word of God is above all.

 

Luke 9  (Jesus says)

 

23 And HE (Jesus) said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow ME.

 

24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for MY sake, the same shall save it.

 

25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?

 

26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of ME and of MY words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when HE shall come in HIS own glory, and in HIS Father's, and of the holy angels.

Psalm 1

 

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

 

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

 

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

 

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

 

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

 

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
