Hi, I'm Robert Jeffress, and I'm glad to serve as your Bible teacher every day on this great radio station.

On today's edition, a pathway to victory.

When we last saw Abraham, he's back in that altar near Bethel praying, asking for God's forgiveness.

But even though he received God's forgiveness, that forgiveness didn't exempt him from future problems.

This time, the crisis isn't concerning how he's going to deal with a famine with poverty.

It's how he's going to deal with prosperity.

Welcome to pathway to victory with author and pastor Dr. Robert Jeffress.

Trials have a way of strengthening our resolve and teaching us to rely on God.

But in many cases, times of peace and prosperity can be an even greater test of our faith.

Today, on pathway to victory, Dr. Robert Jeffress shares what the story of Abraham and his nephew Lot can teach us about the dangers of success.

Now, here's our Bible teacher to introduce today's message.

Dr. Jeffress?

Thanks, David, and welcome again to pathway to victory.

Talk to anyone who's a master fortune, and they will admit that prosperity has its pitfalls.

In fact, some will confess that money has done nothing to bring them genuine happiness.

Sure, there's nothing more painful than falling short of your financial obligations.

Poverty can rip families apart. It can drive people to make stupid decisions.

But the Bible teaches that wealth creates problems all its own.

And today, I want to explore a few of those tricky issues.

Whether you're a person of means, or you're making it from paycheck to paycheck, the Bible speaks to this timeless issue.

To help you learn more, I've written a brand new book that contains a complete chapter on today's topic.

My new book is called Walking My Faith.
