This is a very much sensitive topic but investing your treasure means multiplying it to share to God and those in need. God wants you to become rich not because he wants you to completely enjoy the fruits of your prosperity but because he wants you to share these blessings to your ministry and others.
The world defines rich as something that describes selfish, greedy and materialistic people but God doesn't define it that way.
If you highly put value on your money and is serving is as your treasure, then it may become your master and you won't be giving much of it away. But if your treasure is in knowing people (including strangers) and responding to the help they need, your heart without any force or pressure, will much more likely motivate you to support them financially, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Rick Warren, author of the famous book, The Purpose-Driven Life has sold over 30 million copies worldwide making him one of the richest men in the world. But he knew his wealth was intended for God's purpose and so 90% of all his royalties from his books were donated to charities, ministries and building churches in poorer countries. He only gets 10% of his profits for his living. INVEST YOUR TREASURE WISELY
