What does the Bible say about setting our affection on things above?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible instructs us to set our affections on things above, emphasizing the importance of spiritual and eternal values over earthly matters.

In Colossians 3:2-4, Paul instructs believers to set their affection on things above, not on earthly things. This call to be spiritually minded highlights that true life and peace come from focusing on spiritual blessings and eternal realities rather than the transient pleasures of this world. By shifting our focus toward the heavenly, we align ourselves with God's eternal purpose and gain the assurance of our future with Christ when He returns in glory.
