Security: Looking to the Lord

by Alistair Begg

Hebrews 13:5–6
 (ID: 1174)

Although many people believe that financial security will bring peace and contentment, true security can only be found when we look first to the Lord Jesus. In this message from Hebrews 13:5, Alistair Begg reminds us that believers are called to a radical lifestyle in relation to possessions and managing finances. God dares us to be different from the materialistic society around us and to bring our work as a sacrificial offering to Him.

Topics:
Hebrews 13:5–6

5Keep your life afree from love of money, and bbe content with what you have, for he has said, c“I will never leave you nor forsake you.” 6So we can confidently say,

d“The Lord is my helper;

eI will not fear;

what can man do to me?”
