Fireside Chat with Dr. June Knight - "Idol of Our Possessions/Material Things"

Dr. June talks about the idol of placing material things before our calls and destinies. We will not give up our "things" in order to obey God. The hour coming up we must be willing to abandon all for the call.  We cannot allow material things to have a hold on us. It is only loaned to us to use for HIS glory. Nothing we have is ours. It is ALL his.

Idol #22 – Today we repent on behalf of the Body of Christ seeking after possessions and material gain. We reject theology which would cause us to lust after worldly things when God says if you love this world MORE than you love me then you’re not worthy of the kingdom. If you love the world….this means material things too. Nothing we have is ours. NOTHING. It’s ALL God’s. We cannot have the THINGS in our hearts like we OWN them. God OWNS them. If He wants them back, then He can ask us to give it away or something else. We must be willing to LET GO at anytime when God requires. When we use our material things to flaunt and press down the poor because we HAVE these things, then woe unto us. Are we greedy? Do we share? Do we have a generous spirit? Are we a hoarder? It’s MINE, MINE, AND ALL MINE! This is a sin.

We repent Lord for allowing material things to rule us. We repent for placing our identity in the new things. We place our worth on Earth upon THINGS. We judge others due to THEIR THINGS. We rise up in pride because we HAVE and judge the HAVE NOTS. We see the needs of others and do not help because we do not want to share.
