MoneyWalk 126: The Silent Killer

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Over 50% of marriages are ending in divorce, our children are more bratty, selfish, and problematic than they've ever been, people's indebtedness to business establishments continues to rise at a horrendous rate while the savings rate continues to plunge, more people than ever before are having cars repossessed, homes foreclosed on, and filing for bankruptcy.

Most divorcees say that financial problems caused their marriages to end. Many others say bankruptcies and business failures were the result of not being able to pay the tremendous mortgages they assumed to purchase buildings, equipment, and other desires. The reality is that these things are only symptoms of the underlying problem: failure to use biblical money management principles.

They thought purchasing things beyond their means would ultimately resolve any problems they encountered in their lives. However, debt is nothing but a silent killer that eventually leads the masses into poverty, despair, hopelessness, and life beneath the prosperity and privilege God desires for you. So, their children continue to set their teeth on edge even though they provide them with the finest homes, cars, and clothes that debt can buy.

Now, we shouldn’t focus much on the past failures that are behind us, rather we should look to the One whose blood and principles can change our lives forever starting on earth. Let our past be an indication that I need the One who is wiser than I. While I may be endowed with some great gifts and abilities, I am not Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent and thus I need a deep abiding relationship with the one who is all these things.

The silent killer is our lack of knowledge and understanding of biblical principles for living and managing money and failure to obey the commands and principles of scripture. However, Jesus Christ offers you a way to turn this situation around and make your life purposeful and truly worthwhile. He is the only way, the truth, and the life. No man can do anything eternally worthwhile except it come from the empowerment of a relationship with Him. So, freely offer yourself to Him today and never turn back on that commitment. Seek to know Him better throughout your life and know His principles and he is sure to lead you to a non-indebted, fruitful, purposeful life where you are able to complete the work He gave you to do.

Please pray for this ministry and email any questions. May God bless you richly as you follow His plan!!!
