Most people live for today—what feels good, what brings success, what builds their reputation. But real men of God live for something more. They think beyond the weekend, beyond the paycheck, beyond even their own lifetimes. Jesus said, “store up for yourselves treasures in heaven” (Matthew 6:20). That’s not just a poetic line—it’s a marching order. It’s about living today with eternity in mind.
Our springboard for today’s discussion is:
"But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal." — Matthew 6:20 (ESV)
Eternal investments look like sacrifice, faithfulness, integrity, and love that costs something. It means being the kind of father who leads with humility, the kind of husband who lays down his pride, and the kind of man who chooses character over comfort. Building a legacy in heaven doesn’t mean you’ll always be popular down here—but it does mean your life will echo into eternity.
Think about it—what if the measure of success wasn’t how much you gathered, but how much you gave? Not how loud your voice was, but how faithfully you listened to God's voice? We’re not called to impress the world—we’re called to impact it for Christ. That means mentoring the next generation, living generously, and letting your light shine in dark places.
This isn’t about adding pressure. It’s about adding purpose. You were made for more than the moment. You were made for eternity.
Question of the Day:
What step can you take today to invest in something eternal—something that outlasts you?
Let’s Pray:
Father, help us see beyond the temporary. Teach us to live with heaven in mind, to value what You value, and to build a legacy that honors You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
