This program will help you undo financial bondage.
The Bible
provides many principles that help you manage money in order to prosper, such
as planning (including budgeting), tithing & offering, debt
elimination, refusing to cosign, saving & investing, and diversifying. Invite
the Holy Spirit to give you knowledge and understanding so you can take wise
actions best for you now and in the future. Augment this with thanksgiving,
praise, worship, prayer, regular scripture reading, bible study, and weekly
fellowship with a local church.
This
will help you learn and walk these principles out step by step until you
finally employ all of them to display a well-rounded arsenal of weapons that
fend off satan’s attacks on your life through day-to-day financial decisions,
emergencies, catastrophes, and other situations. You’ll be motivated to immediately
start using each principle by knowing the Lord instructs His people to follow
it because obedience to His plan for your life brings Him glory and is
ultimately best for you.
Saving
& investing is a biblical principle. There are a few methods you can use like
saving & investing a reasonable portion of your monthly income before you
pay creditors or saving & investing what’s left over after you pay minimum
monthly payments to creditors. Also, there are many tools you can use such as
savings accounts, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, brokerage
accounts, etc. Getting yourself in a position to save regularly and
consistently in a way that preserves principal and earns interest on top is
necessary before you begin to invest in vehicles that are more speculative on
the short-term horizon. Investing provides far greater ability to increase your
wealth on the long-term horizon via no-load low-expense broad market stock
index mutual funds, no-load low-expense bond index mutual funds, credible real
estate ventures and funds, etc.).
Sometimes
a conflict arises in your mind that makes you wonder how you can tithe &
give abundantly and save money at the same time. Since God instructs us to do both,
He’ll show you how they work together to fulfill His perfect plan for you.
After all, tithing & giving is a fraction of your income (starting at
10%) compared to the amount you’ve been spending on other desires (upwards
of 60% on houses, cars, furniture, clothes, jewelry, etc.). The first step
to implementing the saving & investing principle in your life is knowing it’s
important to the Lord and as such should be employed for your betterment and
for the benefit of those to whom you’re called to be a light and example of
Christlikeness when those funds are needed for gospel ministry.

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
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!
