Day 3 – The Rich Fool’s Miscalculation
Scripture: Luke 12:16–20
Focus: “You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you.” (v.20)
Observation:
The rich man’s downfall wasn’t his abundance—it was his assumption. He planned everything but prepared for nothing eternal. He consulted no one, especially not God. Eleven self-centered statements in three verses reveal a heart rooted in self-sufficiency.
God calls him a fool—not for being wealthy, but for trusting his wealth instead of his Maker.
Challenge:
Examine your long-term goals and financial plans. Have you invited God into them? What would change if you made spiritual readiness your highest priority? Begin one small act today that reflects faith over fear.
Prayer:
God, help me not to ignore eternity. Teach me to include You in my plans and live with urgency for things that last forever. Amen.
