Everything Belongs to the Lord

There are a lot of people running around in this world thinking they are entitled to something. In their narcissistic minds, they think that the world revolves around them, anything they own is of their own doing  and that couldn't be further from the truth. If I recall the Bible says that God Almighty is the creator of Heaven and Earth and everything in it. Meaning that everything on the face of this Earth and beyond belongs to Him. The house you live in, the car you drive, the food you eat, the clothes on your back, the money in your bank account and the bank it's in, all belongs to God; there is no co-ownership in God's Kingdom. If God presents it to you it's not yours, it's still His, He's just entrusting it to you.

For Example, in Luke 22:10-13, Jesus tells the disciples to go into the city to a house and there in an upper room make preparations for the Passover meal,. They do as He says, they go into the city find the house and everything was found just as Jesus had told them.

You notice that Jesus didn't say go and ask if we can use the upper room in the house, He said go and make preparations in the upper room. He spoke as though He was telling them to go make preparations as though the house were His, because in all reality it is. He is Lord God Almighty, everything on this Earth belongs to Him. So don't walk around as thought you are entitled to the things you have. If you have it, it is because God gave it to you. No matter how small or how big it is, be sure to give God all the glory for it. If it were not for Him, none of us have anything and would be nothing. So be grateful, be thankful and be humble. Give God the glory He is due.God Bless!
