Introduction

Have you ever taken a close look at your relationship with money? Let me phrase it another way, have you ever considered that the way you spend your money is a litmus test of your relationship with God? In the parable of the unjust steward (Luke 16) Jesus exposes the relationship between our handling of this world’s possession and our love for God. This parable also reveals that our spending is either an investment into the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Self. What is your wallet revealing about you?

Conclusion

• Jesus uses this parable to help us discover that our finances can be used on either the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Self. Jesus put it plainly, “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven…For where you treasure is, there your heart will be also,” Matthew 6:19-21.
