Howard Hughes was born into a wealthy family and was the only child of his parents. Upon his father’s death, 75% of the family fortune was inherited by Howard who was only 18 years.
With so much money, he seemed to have the world at his feet.
By the 1960’s, Howard became the 4th richest man in the world. As a billionaire he lived extravagantly and lavishly fed his indulgences. Anything he wanted he simply bought it up, because he was rich enough to pay for it.
One of his habits was a penchant for living in luxury hotels. On some occasions, just because he did not want to check out of his hotel room, he would buy up the entire hotel and continue his stay.
Another of his habits was late night movies. A chronic insomniac, he watched movies on television all night long. When Hughes first arrived in Las Vegas and discovered they had no all-night TV stations, he bought KLAS Channel 8 television station in 1967. He got them to begin operating all night long so he could indulge his habit of watching late night movies. Yet, despite all the money he spent to find happiness, Howard Hughes died a recluse and a very lonely man.
It truly has been said that where purpose is not known abuse is inevitable. When people Lack understanding of the real purpose of money, it eventually leads to wasteful living: wealth that could have been invested to make great impact ends up being wasted on lavish indulgences.
As Christians, we are to set our hearts on what truly matters, and not on the frivolous things of the earth. Matthew 6:19–21 says, “Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also”.
The real purpose of prosperity is for us to accomplish God’s mission on earth.
Zechariah 1;17 says ‘Cry yet, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; My cities through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad;.’
When your heart is set on God, your treasure will be spent on His purpose on earth. When your heart is rightly positioned on God, it will direct the distribution of your resources. David gave abundantly to the building of God’s temple, because his heart was set on God.
Giving to God’s Kingdom is the key to unending breakthroughs and breaking forth on every side. You can’t be truly sold out to God and not stand out on earth.
As we live with the passion and purpose of advancing God’s kingdom through our giving, surely we will live with fulfillment and enjoy immeasurable blessings from Heaven.
PRAYER: Lord, Please help me to set my priorities right, by seeking first the promotion of Your kingdom. As I do, I thank You for causing me to truly break forth on every side in Jesus Name.
