This is a message from Dr. Michael Youssef, Bible teacher on leading the way.

Our prayer is that it will encourage you in your walk of faith.

Most often, parents and grandparents will work hard, skimp on themselves in order to put

something away for their children and grandchildren.

Of course, in some situations, I've seen with my own eyes how easy money can ruin lives,

and I've seen ruined lives that were the result of easy money.

And I read this week about a lazy young man who has never worked a day in his life.

And he was banking all along on the hope that when his uncle dies, a very rich uncle is going to leave him a fortune.

So he was just banking on that.

He never worked a day in his life.

It was lazy.

Never, never even try to find a jar.

But then his rich uncle died and had one word, one line in his will for his lazy nephew.

It read, I do hereby, leave to my beloved nephew all the money

he owes me. What a disappointment to this guy. I remember my dear friend, the late Troy Ludwig,

I miss him terribly. He used to say, it's a disaster to leave your children a financial

inheritance if you have not given them a spiritual inheritance.

I couldn't agree more.

And the second commandment is not only a stern warning against worshipping God the wrong way,

but is a stern warning about worshipping God the wrong way and passing that wrong way to your next generation.
