What You Value Drives Your Life | Matthew 6:19–34

What you value is not neutral. It is steering the entire direction of your life. In this message from Matthew 6:19 through 34, we explore Jesus' call to stop living for possessions and begin living for the Kingdom of God. Jesus teaches that: You cannot serve God and mammon at the same time. Your treasure pulls your heart toward whatever you pursue. A generous, Kingdom focused "good eye" fills your life with light. A greedy, materialistic "bad eye" fills your life with darkness. Worrying over money and needs reveals the true object of your trust. We walk through how: Not valuing possessions enough to seek them, in verses 19 through 24, breaks the grip of materialism and exposes the idolatry that often hides in modern Christian life. Not valuing possessions enough to worry about them, in verses 25 through 34, frees your heart to trust your heavenly Father who feeds the birds and clothes the lilies. At the center of this message is Jesus' command: "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." Matthew 6:33 NKJV. When God's Kingdom is placed first, your priorities shift, your anxiety decreases, your generosity grows, and your trust in the Father deepens. If your life has been driven by security, comfort, or accumulation, this message will challenge you and call you back to one Master, one vision, and one treasure. Watch now to understand how what you value drives your life and how to realign your heart, your money, and your worries with the Kingdom of God.
