MoneyWalk 406 A Life Worth Living

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

What is your motivation? Is it having expensive homes, fancy cars, and other toys? Is it having notoriety, fame, or power? Pursuit of such status and material things should never be a Christian’s primary motivation. In your life, some form or level of them will come as a blessing or reward. Yet, you must remember they could serve as an aim for temptation to be introduced to your mind by the devil and his demon allies in order to get you to prioritize these temporal things as more important than intimacy with Jesus Christ. Succumbing to pursuit of these things as the priority for your life and activities will inevitably cause you to be ill-equipped to mentally and emotionally handle higher levels or amounts of them, with godly humility and meekness. Pursuit of such things without following biblical instruction and the Holy Spirit’s leading will cause you to make alliances with the wrong people, businesses, and/or endeavors in order to try and get more of them and the prestige they seem to point to on earth.

However, you will be truly blessed and rewarded only when you keep your focus continually on the main priority of your life on earth, which is being intimate with the LORD and pursuing His will for your life by helping lead people to Him, so the Word, written and spoken, can help draw their hearts to Himself and learn to obey everything He commanded. This motivation seen and made real via subsequent, consistent activity brings you to a place of having more than enough to carry out ministry and steward possessions far beyond what the average person gets to work with.

No matter what vocation, avocation, recreation, or pleasure time you currently have or ever hope to have, you must stay focused on the main mission we are instructed to carry out in the bible (being a good steward of the manifold blessings the LORD entrusts to you in order to maximize evangelization & disciple-making of many others while on earth). This priority weaved throughout your life and activities develops your character, worthwhile skills, proper use of spiritual gifts, and life and financial fruitfulness. You can help yourself immensely by reinforcing this highest, righteous priority by daily, consistently reciting a prayer declaration like the following.

“LORD give me the knowledge, understanding, and discipline to successfully use my gifts, natural & spiritual, to serve You, the body of Christ, and other people in order to produce great relationships and profitable enterprises and to help release people from bondage the enemy tricked them into. Help me never be ashamed to use the platform you’ve given me (my job, business, politics, music, sports, etc.) so that I can be a godly example to all others with whom I come in contact.”

Please pray for this ministry and email me with any questions. May the LORD bless you richly as you follow His plan!

MoneyWalk 405 Conquer Debt And Thrive

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Our banking and retail industries allow most anyone to easily become burdened by debt he / she cannot afford and eventually cannot pay. You will reap terrible spiritual and natural headaches when you follow the advice of many advisors in these industries instead of managing your life and money based on biblical principles like:

• Working long-term as unto the Lord (so that promotion and pay increases can come to you at various points in life).

• Honoring the Lord via tithing and abundant giving to your local Church and other endeavors that please His heart according to the bible.

• Ensuring expenses do not exceed net pay, which is maintained by drafting and following a giving, saving, spending plan (budget).

• Ensuring the highest priority responsibilities (food, shelter, transportation, and clothing) are taken care of when you're in tough times, instead of pigging out on material things you don’t need (alcohol, illegal drugs, play station, x-box, cable, cell phones, RV's, boats, non-economical cars, etc.) even after constantly telling others you don't have money to take care of obligations that are truly important. All higher priority responsibilities can be found free of charge for at least short periods of time (via friends, churches, and social service networks with missions designed for this purpose).

You should commit to a step-by-step good stewardship process designed to eliminate financial bondage and prosper you. Such discipline will not line up with the world’s encouragement to constantly take on debt to get things you want, whether material things or the possibility of a successful entrepreneurial endeavor. Thus, you need to be resolute because some of these worldly voices will disparage you and claim you are being unrealistic by avoiding debt like it’s the plague. Most people uncommitted to achieving a debt-free lifestyle continue to experience severe financial hardships and bondage that truly could be avoided.

Please pray for this ministry and email me with any questions. May the LORD bless you richly as you follow His plan!

MoneyWalk 404 You Will Get Results

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Many times you wonder whether or not you will get results if you follow the people who suggest they know success principles. The type of success you are aiming for should show itself in the life of the author and people who for several years faithfully adhere to the principles. In many instances, success will show little by little until a few years down the road the person is in a position far better than most people in society around him and you can tell he / she has maintained and matured in positive upright character along the way.

There are many times where the only thing you get is empty promises from authors and so-called teachers who exploit for money your desire to prosper. There are others who use this desire to send you down questionable and illegal paths where you might become a well-known face of American Greed. And of course there are a few who have tapped into a real vein of prosperity that helps the faithful prosper in a way that maintains integrity, honesty, and goodwill for others.

You should want to be in the latter situation and avoid the other two scenarios. Often these authors, whether they know it or not, have captured and relay to other people the essence of biblical principles. God’s word is the only source guaranteed to prosper you immensely in the manner that He desires for you on Earth and in eternity. That is why no matter the teacher you should make it a point to compare a person’s teaching with biblical principles to see if they align and only utilize those steps, points, etc. that indeed align with the Word.

We have been debt-free for almost two decades, have been tithers and abundant givers for well over two decades, and have prospered immensely when compared to the place we started. We looked to no man to point the way to us on how to live. We look solely to the LORD and trusted several of his pastors and teachers who shared truths that aligned with the Word and what the LORD had been showing us. We were not looking to be wealthy. We only wanted to be pleasing to Him and good stewards of His manifold blessings. He has done far better in our lives than what we thought and asked. We are so grateful for His mercy, because we know we deserve nothing, and also grateful for His grace, because Daddy God loves His people so much He bestows upon us the choice to be saved, inherit eternal life, and obtain far more than we could ever deserve.

He has helped us to lead others down this same path. You too can have this kind of future and greater. The sooner you become intimate with the LORD and start employing His principles the sooner godly success will permeate your life to allow blessing and rewards to overflow and positively impact the lives of other people.

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