MoneyWalk 95: Tell the truth in love

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Jesus Christ’s will and way is for His Church to love all people even though we may not like their attitudes or what they do. Heck, sometimes you shouldn’t love your own attitudes and actions but He still loves you and you should still love you. How much more then should you extend His mercy and grace to other people? The answer is always.

Thus, by the power of the Holy Spirit through faith we work to spread the gospel in our families, communities, and around the world using words and deeds. The bible tells us that the foolishness of preaching the gospel one-on-one or to a congregation brings people of every race, creed, or nationality to Jesus Christ. It also lets us know that our nature was created in Christ to do good works. Our stewardship of money plays an important role in helping expand our reach. Over time, it helps enlarge our efforts in building relationships with many people because it adds great force and effect to our words and deeds.

One important area of your witness of God’s glory is your desire and discipline in properly managing the money He entrusts to you. Everything you have comes from Him and your position in life would not be possible without His intervention and favor in your life.

People want to know that Jesus Christ made a tremendous difference in your financial life as a witness of His power because this is one of the foremost areas in which they are suffering. Conversations that help them eliminate financial bondage in their lives will be a road that leads them to Christ. While you don't have the power to make them choose salvation and produce good fruit in their lives, you do have the ability to tell the truth in love about:

1) Eternal consequence of not accepting Jesus as Savior and Lord;

2) Ignorance of and rebellion against biblical instruction that causes people to dwell in a dry land;

3) Financial habits and mismanagement that is destroying their earthly purpose;

4) God’s faithfulness in this life and throughout eternity in bringing His people victory over every temptation, trial, and obstacle they face.

Answer the call. In humility, seasoned by God’s grace, extending mercy, tell others the truth in love and do not forget that your management of money plays a tremendous role in your effectiveness and reach. You can make a tremendous difference for good in many other people’s lives.

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