When Abraham rescued his nephew Lot, the king of Sodom tried to reward him with riches. π°
But Abraham said no.
βI will not take even a thread or a sandal strap that is yours,
lest you say, βI have made Abram rich.ββ β Genesis 14:23
He refused wealth from a corrupt king β because his faith was in the Possessor of heaven and earth. π
Then God said to him:
βDo not be afraid, Abram.
I am your shield,
your very great reward.β β Genesis 15:1
π₯ The message?
Sometimes saying βnoβ to easy gain is saying βyesβ to eternal reward.
Integrity might cost you something now β but when God is your portion, you never walk away empty-handed.
