Psalms
4:5
Offer
right sacrifices and trust in the LORD.
Many
place their trust in the wrong things.
Do not
place your trust in weapons.
Ps 20:7
This
world is full of people who place their confidence in guided missiles, fighter
planes, bombs, automatic rifles, knives and spears.
Matthew
26:52
“Put your
sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will
die by the sword.
Revelation
13:9
He, who
has an ear, let him hear.
Do not
place your trust in riches.
Proverbs
11:28
Whoever
trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will thrive like a green
leaf.
Psalms
49:6-9
6 those
who trust in their wealth and boast of their great riches?
7 No man
can redeem the life of another or give to God a ransom for him—
8 the
ransom for a life is costly, no payment is ever enough—
9 that he
should live on forever and not see decay.
Maybe you
think, "Well that doesn't apply to me. I'm not rich." But even a poor
man is placing his trust in riches if he thinks money would solve his problems.
Mark
10:24
The
disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard
it is to enter the kingdom of God!
1 Timothy
6:17
Command
those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their
hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly
provides us with everything for our enjoyment.
