Proverbs of a 37 yr old man
A Bank. A bank is such a blessing to a community, town and city. Banks are critical to our economy. The primary function of banks is to put their account holders money to use by lending it out to others who can then use it to buy homes, businesses, send kids to college. Banks create money in the economy by making loans. To see how this affects the economy, think about it like this. When a bank gets a deposit of $100, assuming a reserve requirement of 10 percent, the bank can then lend out $90. That $90 goes back into the economy, purchasing goods or services, and usually ends up deposited in another bank. That bank can then lend out $81 of that $90 deposit, and that $81 goes into the economy to purchase goods or services and ultimately is deposited into another bank that proceeds to lend out a percentage of it. In this way, money grows and flows throughout the community in a much greater amount than physically exists. That $100 makes a much larger ripple in the economy than you may realize! Jesus is the Great Bank Himself and He has deposited Holy Spirit to each and every one of us. We are to operate our hearts and lives through the equity of Holy Spirit. No longer in debt to our sins but rich in every spiritual blessing. Keeping watch for we do not know the day or hour of Christ's return.
As the Scriptures say, "When he went up to the highest place, he led away many prisoners and gave gifts to people." Jesus opened up heavens bank to bankrupt souls, for whosoever believes in Him will have the gift of eternal life. He has entrusted his life into his children of faith and is soon to make his Interest Return. Our High Priest has poured out the Spirit like the oil dripping from Aaron's beard! Will you be found with much faith on the earth? Did the Bank of heaven himself use you to further the Kingdom and its holy economy? Sadly, many people will be found with their faith in the sinking sands of this world. Even what they have will be taken from them and given to the faithful servant. Though they say of the LORD that he is a hard person to please. That He harvests where He hasn't planted and gathers where He hasn't scattered any seeds. They are afraid to live for God, only fearing him because of open rebellion and disobedience. Appearing to have a godly life, but they will not let the power of the Gospel change them. Rather than working hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear. All they have is the deposit of belief and even the Devil and his angels believe. If God has been generous with you, he will expect you to serve him well. But if he has been more than generous, he will expect you to serve him even better. But someone who does not know, and then does something wrong, will be punished only lightly. Jesus has come to bring fire on the earth, and he has already kindled it! A terrible baptism of suffering He endured and under a heavy burden He accomplished the mission of redemption. He came to not to make peace with our sins but to bring division and freedom from them. A deposit of righteous to sin debited souls that will never return to him in void. His spiritual economy is thriving, the Holy Spirit is moving, be still and know that He is God! The Great Bank of Heaven. In Him we move and have our being. He holds all things together, the Author and Finisher of our faith.
