The Dangers of Wealth & Blessing

In this episode of the Wisdom Calling podcast, Bobo discusses Moses' final words to the children of Israel before they entered the Promised Land. Moses warned them not to forget God and to remain distinct from the unbelieving people that surrounded them. He also encouraged them to love God with their entire being and to obey His word.

Bobo then shares some practical steps we can take to avoid forgetting God in our daily lives and work. These include spending time digesting spiritual food, keeping a journal of God's faithfulness, finding someone to touch base with us weekly, and joining a small group of believers.

This episode is a reminder that we need to be intentional and strategic in our spiritual growth. God doesn't just zap us with spiritual growth. We have to be diligent and vigilant. By following Moses' advice and the practical steps Bobo shares in this episode, we can avoid self-sufficiency and live a life that demonstrates love for the LORD and others.

Key takeaways:

• Love and obedience to God are the means to avoid forgetting Him and living a self-sufficient life.
• We need to be intentional and strategic in our spiritual growth.
• Here are some practical steps we can take:
  • Spend as much or more time each day digesting spiritual food as you do with physical food.
  • Keep a journal where you can archive how God has demonstrated His faithfulness to you and provided for you.
  • Find someone other than your spouse or significant other who can touch base with you weekly to encourage you in taking care and keeping your soul.
  • Consider, if you haven’t already, forming or joining a small group of other believers from your church or within your organization where you all can regularly help each other minimize temptation and maximize holiness to the Lord.
