Where your wealth is so shall your heart be

Evil men shall rule but for a little season and then the reins of power shall be taken from their hands forever.

The righteous shall rule in the everlasting Kingdom and the reins of power shall remain in their hands forever.

Woe unto those who are rich in earthly possessions, though they be rich now, they will spend all eternity in poverty.

Blessed are the poor who lack earthly possessions, though they be poor now, they will have riches in glory forever.

Seek first the Kingdom of Heaven and lay up for yourselves treasures there.

Lay not up for yourselves treasures on earth which are here today but gone tomorrow.

Set your affections on the things of the Kingdom of Heaven and not on the earth.

For where your wealth is so shall your heart be also.

If your wealth is in Heaven, Heaven will be in your heart.
