This program will help you undo financial bondage.
Work is much more tedious to our decaying bodies because Adam forsook the abundance of God's favor and everlasting life in his physical body by eating of the forbidden fruit. Yet, God still looks upon work as an integral part man fulfilling the purpose for which he is created and designed to have dominion in the earth.
Work should be engaged to please Father God, to allow the Holy Spirit to guide and train us to use our gifts and build skill in our endeavors, and to be Jesus’ hands, feet, and mouthpiece in the earth. Through this attitude, we build treasures in heaven and when work flows from our faith in God, we'll find pleasure even in the toil and the things it allows us to obtain will be a blessing to us and others.
Solomon and the Apostle Paul confirmed the natural and spiritual repercussions of laziness and irresponsibility toward work. They identified that the diligent person shall live in a wealthy place and that a person who doesn't work will not have enough food and sustenance to properly care for his or her responsibilities. Proverbs 31 shows that a spiritual woman is one that works whether at home or outside the home doing things that are godly and which benefit her husband and children. Men should also be engaged in worthwhile, godly endeavors in and outside the home. In fact, they should set the example for others in the home to follow.
Abstaining from all forms of work is not healthy for your body or good in God's sight, yet that does not mean you cannot move to different stages of work life where you flow from working a great number of hours in one career field to reducing work hours and spreading your time in other fields such as ministry, consulting, entrepreneurial, and charitable non-profit efforts.
You are free to retire from your present line of work granted you understand that the Holy Spirit has already called you to another field of work where you will overtly and covertly build God’s kingdom through your communication, interaction, and resources. That’s right, when you retire from your present line of work; you still have much work to do as a member of and co-laborer in the body of Christ.
Even after retiring from your career path, God’s love in you and your love for Him should motivate you to work as unto the Lord inside and outside your local church to evangelize unbelievers and make disciples of men.

MoneyWalk 462: Seasons will change – No need to worry!
This program will help you undo financial bondage.
Do not be afraid of seasons and circumstances changing around you. Politicians come into office in a blaze and then are swept out just as quick. Laws get passed that change what we must comply with and sometimes laws get overturned or changed that we thought were best for our nation. Some business people operate in change mode out of godly vision and love for the people they serve while other business people bring about change based on immoral, oppressive, prideful, or greedy objectives. Not to mention that impure motivations we have had from time to time caused someone else to deal with change that wasn’t pleasing to them.
Because of the choices that God allows men to make and the interaction of them all, we cannot stop all change from occurring. What we can and must do are pray that activities that would cause negative change be stopped in their tracks and that activities that we, our leaders and others engage in would be pure as directed by the heart of God for the betterment of His kingdom and the people we are to affect in this world. You will free yourself from bondage to negativity that would otherwise immobilize you to many great opportunities that God wants to bless you with when you put your trust in the Lord Jesus Christ in this way to stop worrying about the ultimate outcome of the political race, economic situation, job market, or other change that may or does take place.
God is more than able to take care of your need according to His riches in glory and will do so when you delight yourself in Him more than anything else. This must be in everlasting covenant with and commitment to God instead of a short-term activity meant to get the goods from God then return to self-centered ways. Remember, God knows every heart and is the Judge of the motives and intent of every action. Unbelief will be found out and will ultimately destroy you if not repented of.
The key to peace and joy, financially and in other areas of life, is to recognize that God has not given us a spirit of fear. He has given us power, love, and a sound mind - The mind of Christ that, when listened to and obeyed, will lead us to follow scriptural principle in every area and every circumstance. He will also, by the Holy Spirit, teach us to avoid worldliness in our activities so that we may be fruitful in every good work.
Many are the methods that could be given to follow the few principles contained in the bible that describe how we should live and manage our money in order to be most fruitful. Yet, the most important thing for you is to seek the Lord with all your heart, asking Him what He specifically wants you to do to serve His kingdom and other people, then start doing it step by step while you also engage the main lifestyle principles He instructed every believer to be engaged in: daily prayer, daily bible reading, weekly fellowship with a family of believers (a local church), serving in the local church and workplace.
Now, mix these elements of a godly life with telling family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, and others what Christ means to you and how He changed your life. As you draw closer to Christ doors of opportunity will begin to open for you for evangelism, making disciples of others, and engaging in the ministry for which you are gifted.

MoneyWalk 75: You need Jesus!
This program will help you undo financial bondage.
Eternal life and true righteousness, peace, and joy can come only from Jesus Christ. He is the way, the truth, and the life and no man can really give his life to God and have a future home in heaven unless they accept Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord!
God showed his great love to us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. Much more than that, we've been saved from eternal wrath by His blood shed at Calvary. No matter where you are, salvation by faith in Christ alone brings new life that can begin for you right now. The blood of Jesus will cleanse you upon asking Jesus with all your heart to be your Savior and Lord.
Jesus wants the best for you throughout eternity. However, you must start by putting your trust in Him and what He already accomplished through His death, burial, and resurrection. He’s the one who made you with a godly purpose that' cannot be fully used without His guidance. He's calling you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
Make a confession of faith wherever you are in acceptance of His calling and please let me know about your decision.
God will be pleased and the church of God will rejoice with the angels in heaven on your behalf because those who are saved are led by the Holy Spirit and empowered to take action that brings forth good fruit. They do so by learning biblical principles to govern their lives and financial affairs. The sooner you come to Christ, the sooner you can reap the benefit of this eternal and earthly inheritance.
