Let us go to the entertainment industry, what is their message? Serve money. How? Let me show you how:

In most music videos, most artists are flashing money, saying that money is the solution to all problems and you are a king once you possess money. Let us look at our mighty May Weather, he even said it to the world: “I fight for nothing other than money.” What is he saying? He is simply saying to us money is his god.

Many people substitute God and serve money, unaware. To validate what I am saying ask yourself: is the time I used to devote to God every day shorter each second because I devote it to my job?

This is how money threatens you: if you don’t work then your family won’t eat. In other words, money says to you if you won’t serve me you are dead. How can money kill you? It will by using anxiety, stress and other opportunistic diseases to attack you. The more pressure you feel over money, the more you work away from your creator.

What is love without money? What is a relationship without money? Love and relationships are pure as snow without money. Jesus gave clear instructions on how family should be but we broke the command.

According to the Bible, the family structure should be as follows: Christ is head over man, meaning men should submit to God, women submit and respect their husbands, children submit to both parents. That was how God wanted it. But the roles have reversed and it is now money being the head of man. Meaning man submits to money, women submit and respect money and children submit and respect money only.

That is why many relationships die before they go anywhere because couples do not have love for themselves but for money.

Young girls now make money their aim. The scary part is parents encourage their children to look for money from men. That is the very reason there are people who call themselves “blessers”.

Prostitution and adultery sometimes occur because of lack of true love. In many young relationships we find conflicts and death because the foundation of the relationship was and is money.

As God said, for a man who builds his house without inviting me in his plans, he is building for nothing. So many houses are nothing because there is no core center. Honestly, there is no head anymore in our relationships and marriages. Man can have stability but without money he is seen as nothing. It is heart breaking to see how humanity has diverted from its creator.

For everything we have accomplished, it hurts to see people who are and were suffering before, forget to say thank you once they are helped. The worst part is that parents are ignoring this lesson of thanksgiving, they are not teaching their young ones. Almost 8 out of 10 parents skip that, especially teen parent.

God said, “When you cry unto me I will hear you but one thing I want you to do is to thank me.”

But that is not happening. Unfortunately, our ruling government does not have that, and even the poorest of the poor do not have that.

Tell us: Do you think that people have lost their sense of thankfulness?
