Is there really such a thing as “Wealth Without Risk”?  Absolutely!! But it’s not going to be found in the midst of man’s shifting principles as he clings desperately to his stuff on a doomed world.
Rather, it can only ultimately be experienced by those who believe God’s Word, become a child of God and live their lives for God’s eternal kingdom!
Beginning of sermon outline:
I  Kingdom Investing Wisdom

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth: [Verse 19]

Store up = Thesaurizo = “To amass or lay up”
Treasures = Thesauros = “Wealth”
Literal translation = “To treasure up treasure”

Where moth and rust destroy
Where thieves break in and steal

It may help to understand what Jesus was not forbidding:

He was not forbidding the ownership of material goods
He was not forbidding good financial planning and saving
Joseph was wise for storing up grain in Egypt - Gen 41:33-38
The sluggard is instructed to study the ant, which prepares for the future – Prov 6:6ff
The virtuous woman is commended for preparing for the future – Prov 31:21, 25
He was not forbidding the enjoyment of earthly goods

What was Jesus forbidding?

The selfish accumulation of goods
Extravagant and luxurious living
Heartless and selfish neglect of those in need
Materialism, which ties our hearts to this world
