“THIS MONEY IS NOT MY MONEY”
Last week Friday, I was in hurry to get few USD for my office’s transaction, so I went to Bureau De Change to get the dollar. Because I was in a hurry to collect the money and pay into the bank before it closes, I mistakenly over paid the man at the Bureau De Change, I was to pay him about N67,000 (Nigerian money), but I paid him N73,000 unknowingly. Later the man called me on phone and told me I overpaid him and that I should come to collect the excess. I was surprised and I later went back to him. The Muslim man explained to me that when he later sat down to count the money well, he discovered the excess of N5600, he said, “This money is not my money, gaskia!”

I thought about the statement of this man, “This money is not my money” meaning he could not unlawfully take another man’s money with his own. He couldn’t join another man’s money with his own, though he is not a Christian but he had that fear that it is dangerous to do such.

How Dangerous?
When you take what doesn’t belong to you, when you unlawfully add someone’s money or belonging to your own, you are in danger of the mess of the devil.

LOSS OF DESTINY
While you want to play smart and cheat, steal or deceive someone, you unlawfully gain another man’s possession, in your own mind, you are playing smart, but before God you are a fool. You know what will happen? God will take 100% of what you steal from your destiny, and use it to repay your victim. Can you imagine people who unlawfully gained wealth but lost their health? Some lost the glorious destiny God has for them, yet they think they are smart.

LOSS OF GREAT THINGS
When God is about to do something great in a man’s life or about to take him to greater level, the devil will bring temptation of getting what does not belong to him, he will package a dangerous gift for him, a gift of compromising to gain possession, of cheating or stealing or even picking another man’s money or property’s on the ground, and if you are too smart, you become foolish and miss God’s great plan for your life.

LOSS OF ETERNITY
Cheating, stealing, deceiving people, taking or giving bribe or falsifying information to gain wealth will not only deprive you of God’s glorious plan for you on earth but it will also deny you of eternal life with God in heaven. So what shall it profit a man after he gained lots of money, possessions and properties and he is lost forever in eternity?

SOLUTION: THE NECESSITY OF RESTITUTION
If you have cheated, stole, deceived or falsified documents or information to gain wealth, certificate, papers, job, property, etc. you need to repent, rededicate your life to Jesus Christ and then return what you got unlawfully.
