One of the important topics that King Jesus taught as part of the kingdom principles in the Sermon on the Mount is the subject of treasure and money. This teaching is filled with divine wisdom about how God wants His people to understand giving, receiving, managing, and investing what He has entrusted to us.

As we walk through the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus first teaches His disciples how to give. Giving and receiving are kingdom principles that are different from the values of the world. The world is often centered on buying, selling, gaining, and accumulating for ourselves. But Jesus teaches us to give with a pure heart and without seeking recognition from people:

“So when you give to the poor, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored by men… But when you give to the poor, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving will be in secret.”
— Matthew 6:2–4

Jesus teaches us the divine way of giving to those in need. Our giving should flow from love, compassion, humility, and a desire to glorify God rather than ourselves.

The same theme continues as Jesus teaches us where to store our treasure and why. Treasure is often gained through hard work, discipline, dedication, and wise decisions. Therefore, when we have something to preserve and invest, we need wisdom to know where it will have lasting value. Who knows the best way to manage our treasure? The One who created us and provides everything we have.

Jesus says:

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven…”
— Matthew 6:19–20

Then Jesus gives us the key principle: “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21). Our treasure reveals what truly matters to our hearts.

God wants us to invest what He has entrusted to us in things that have eternal value. May the Lord give us wisdom to earn honestly, live contentedly, give generously, and invest faithfully in His heavenly kingdom. May our treasures serve His purposes and bring glory to His name.

May God bless you and keep you in every area of your life. Love God and love people.
