This program will help you undo financial bondage.
The Lord made you with unique gifts
and talents, gave you the capacity to enhance them and learn other skills, and
designed you to use all of them in service to other people in one or more of
the arenas of business, music, arts, entertainment, preaching, government
service, politics, retail merchandising, hospitality, etc. Some people will try
to convince you there is a higher calling or arena for you other than the
one(s) you’re currently operating in. They will present the fruit from what
they've seeded and pressure you to follow their lead in the arena suited for
them. You might not be gifted and skilled for it or meant to operate in that
arena at all or on a long-term basis. Beware, lest you look upon their fruit
and forsake the path that God intends for you to walk and serve others on. When
someone is rich or appears to be, the arena that person operates in and the
method they used to pursue riches has great appeal to others. When they’re
operating in a godly manner, you should definitely appreciate all they’ve been
able to achieve. Yet, you must remember some fruit looks good to eat on the outside
but inwardly it is full of worms and poison that lead to destruction and death.
Learn to know the difference between good fruit and bad fruit.
Even when their arena, methods, and
fruit are truly good, recognize their path may not be the one you should take
to complete the fulfillment of your service to others. Learn all you can from
them, but only employ that which is good and commendable in God’s eyes. You may
be serving in their business or ministry for a while, yet continually seek the
Holy Spirit’s guidance to ensure you’re on the path intended for your life and
to know when to forge a new path of your own. He will let you know how to use
the good lessons and discard the bad examples from their lives and methods in
order for you to prosper on the road ahead and enhance the path upon which they
walk while you’re with them.
Never look at anyone’s earthly
riches and possessions as the measure of godliness, righteousness, or
integrity. A person can be rich yet be wicked, evil, and deceitful. The Lord wants
you to choose to be saved and a good steward of money He entrusts to you, so
you can be a prime example to other people of how to live, serve, and prosper.
You are not a clone of your neighbor, nor a clone of the person whose authority
you are currently under. So, cease comparing yourself with them or trying to
mimic their every move. Instead, seek to fulfill God's particular plan for your
life and encourage other believers to fulfill God’s particular plans for their
lives. This is the way you help form a perfectly designed body with Christ as
the brain and leader of the organism. No doubt, learn under an appropriate
leader to develop appropriate spiritual disciplines (worship including
thanksgiving, praise, prayer, etc.). Also, learn to properly handle responsibilities,
tasks, and processes put in place by the leader and/or organization. With
Christ as your head, you cannot lose. Be united with the body and appointed
leader(s) to whom your currently attached and be teachable, yet understand the
Lord has a unique and worthwhile plan and pathway for your life that you will
eventually gravitate to and be ready for, as you remain in constant connection
with Him via prayer and you respect and honor your current leader(s) and church
family.

The book at the link below provides
principles and practical steps that help you use the Power To Get Wealth.
By 1992, we had $135,000 of debt and a negative $35,000 net worth. Financial
bondage and turmoil led me to seek principles and a process for employing good
stewardship. As a result, we became constructively debt-free in 1998, mortgage
free January 2004, millionaires in 2012, multi-millionaires shortly thereafter,
and retired in 2018 in my mid-fifties from public servant jobs while giving
abundantly to fund the gospel of our LORD Jesus Christ. The same power is
available to you!
