MoneyWalk 226: Using Wisdom

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

In order to reverse your negative financial condition you must use wisdom to manage money. True wisdom only comes from God and has been relayed to us via the bible. It contains the only principles that can truly prosper you.

When you commit your ways to God and desire to know His will, He illuminates bible verses showing principles that will positively change your life when you utilize them. He helps you understand the blessings and rewards that result from rightly applying them and the ultimate consequences of not doing so.

Knowledge is receiving information, understanding is grasping the meaning of the information, and wisdom is walking the pathway that is in accordance with God’s will. When these elements are working properly knowledge fuels understanding and it gives you the ability to walk in wisdom. It is always necessary to listen to the Holy Spirit because in some situations He may give direct revelation to make decisions when knowledge or understanding is lacking. That which you receive as revelation should never conflict with scriptural principles.

Search the bible for godly instructions and principles, consult with holy servants of God who can help you understand His will, spend time in prayer, and take appropriate action by faith. Then, you will know when and what God is speaking, you’ll be able to walk in wisdom to alleviate current life and financial problems, and you’ll overcome obstacles to godly success.

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

MoneyWalk 225: Financial Hope

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

The only real hope a person can have must be in Jesus Christ. He is the only way by which we can be saved and gain entry to Father God. Relationship with Him saves you from eternal wrath and damnation and helps you mature and be sanctified for greater use by Him while you’re on earth as a means for being a blessing to other people, leading them to Him, and helping usher them into the same eternal life and heavenly home that He provides you.

You appropriate that hope when you declare Him your Savior and LORD accepting the gift of death by crucifixion by which His blood was shed that you might choose life and not eternal death. The hope is made real by His resurrection from the dead as the firstborn of many brethren (everyone who believes in Him). At the point you first believe, you know you’ll see your redeemer face to face at the Judgment Seat of Christ and spend eternity with Him, whereas all those that refuse to believe in Him will see Him face to face at the Great White Throne Judgment and receive according to His love what their actions showed they desired – eternal damnation with torment.

Your believing spirit desires to help your friends and family be born again in Christ and discipled, so they can also receive an eternal inheritance. When they freely accept Jesus, they live in this hope and there is no chasm that separates them like heaven’s citizens are separated from hell’s inhabitants.

Naturally speaking, everyone hopes to avoid catastrophes and to have all their financial needs and some of their desires met. Your natural hope can be experienced but with some trials, tribulations, and suffering along the way. However, these obstacles strengthen your faith, which comes from hope in Christ, in order to make you patient by trusting in God for what you can’t positively change or influence and by waiting on Him (consistently taking the actions you know to be good according to His Word) to bring forth the perfect work He desires in you.

You will shortly see what you hope for when you put biblical principles such as tithing, planning, budgeting, debt-free living, and saving into action. Your disposable income and net worth will increase much sooner than you ever thought possible and this will allow you to greatly support Kingdom ministry and take care of all your family obligations.

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

MoneyWalk 224: Proper Balancing

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

People who are in good financial shape know at all times how much money they can spend without running over their spendable assets and they refuse to purchase items that cost near that amount in order to stay in sound financial shape. They learn not to care what other people think, not to try to impress other people, and that they cannot produce long-term happiness via purchasing material things their income and assets cannot handle at the current time. They understand that long-term and eternal peace and joy come only in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and this allows them to enjoy their lives no matter what material things and experiences they may or may not have.

In order to have a healthy financial life, you must be diligent in balancing your accounts (including checkbooks). Many people aren't in good financial shape because they are not diligent at immediately recording checks written and withdrawals from their checkbook balances. Also, they do not balance their checkbook monthly. These negative habits lead to overspending and unnecessary charges for bounced checks.

You cannot truly know what you have to spend unless you know what is in your accounts and thus you will most likely overspend available money because you’ll only remember the few deposits that were put in your accounts and not the many withdrawals taken. Most checks are cashed days after they're written which means a check written at an earlier date may eat into your perceived balance leaving less actual money that you can spend. In addition, people are putting more charges on credit cards that ultimately must be paid by what is in their checking account or else they will go unpaid.

You will not recognize this dilemma and thus will get yourself into financial bondage if you are not faithful in recording deposits (including checks written) and withdrawals and make sure you don’t put on credit cards anywhere near the liquid assets you have available to be able to pay the charge in full when it is due. If you don’t balance your checkbook monthly and record entries immediately and keep watch over your accounts and spending, you won’t catch inevitable banking mistakes before they cost you added fees, money that could be used to build wealth and spread the gospel, and excruciating financial headaches.

MoneyWalk 223: Managing By Love

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

The essential part of being a disciple of Jesus Christ is love for God, brothers and sisters in Christ, and your fellow man. To come into this love, you must believe with all of your heart and mind that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that you should not perish but have everlasting life.

The fact of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection to life everlasting in order to take away your sins, when you believe in Him, is your reminder that God loves you immensely and desires that you be close to Him even though you deserve eternal damnation based on your fleshly sin nature and the specific sins you've committed throughout your life.

He activated the events necessary for you to secure eternal life and greatly succeed in your calling on earth without having to utilize the principles, motives, and processes of the dark side. Faith in Christ enables you to forsake sinful, worldly ways of living through a continual maturity process that is guided by the Holy Spirit. If you don’t manage your life, including your finances, in the ways that God instructed in the bible, you risk the possibility that you may fall away from God by following the designs of man or satan thereby losing the inheritance you previously gained.

Love for Christ should move you to pray daily, read scripture daily to hide them in your heart, and fellowship with other believers regularly so you can move on to deeper fellowship with Him in order to fulfill your purpose and ministry calling, which includes evangelizing the lost that don’t know Him and helping others mature in the faith.

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