Jesus wants to prove to the people that they are doing wrong. He took dramatic actions because maybe to Him, it was the only way to let the people know He was really angry of making His house of prayer a den of robbers. the people were supposed to gather in the temple to woship God but instead they gathered to make money.

Blog of Lorena Garcia We always hear people to pray with the phrase, "in Jesus name" When we say this, we acknowledge that we cannot perform or do things solely by ourselves alone but with God's mercy and will. We recognize His presence and that all that we have for others are not ours but His. So, it is fitting for us believers and as christians to put God at the center of every small and big thing. Saving up for life on earth is one of the many duties we ought to do. However, there is the highest purpose that God has given us. That is on fulifilling it to the best that we can, to gloriy Him and that we can dwell in His house of worship. Most importantly, God wants us to follow Him and carry our cross, and die for His sake. Majority of the people on earth struggle so hard to find security and contentment and that they worry so much to store up things for themselves. But that is not the real picture. We are here to seek for the Lord and fulfill our purpose to glorify Himand be in union with Him after our life here on earth. |
