A person who loves money & wealth will never be satisfied with his/her income, net worth, or material things accumulated; this is vanity at work. Use it to fulfill your God-given purpose in spreading the gospel and serving others.

For the love of money is the root of all evil that some covet after, erring in & wandered away from the faith, piercing themselves with many sorrows.

MoneyWalk 55 Don’t Borrow Unnecessarily
This program will help
you undo financial bondage.
This process
starts by saying no to any loan for items that depreciate in value when you
cannot pay cash for them without taking on debt. Also, when taking a loan will
not immediately benefit you by allowing your investments of the same amount
grow at a higher rate than the finance charge you would pay the creditor.
Most people
find it impossible to meet these requirements because they have underfunded
emergency savings, very small investment holdings, and most institutions have
finance charges higher than the growth customers earn on savings and
investments. Also, creditors retain the right to raise finance charges down the
road when they believe you represent greater risk of payment delinquency. Such
delinquency causes fees and penalties to be assessed and will damage your
credit history and score.
It seems far
less than one percent of business owners have financed business ventures using
high finance charge loans and then collected enough revenue to overcome their
expenses (cost of products, services, wages, benefits, finance charges,
etc.). Don’t be fooled into thinking this is a prudent strategy for
financing a business. Most who have tried this method have had to liquidate
their businesses.
Biblical
instruction strongly guides you to pursue your financial life, personal and
business, from a debt-free mindset; asking God and seeking a number of godly
counselors who can help you find prudent ways to start and invest in business
endeavors and purchase personal merchandise that is desirable to you. The vast majority of people I’ve met who did
not follow this method have found themselves in financial turmoil not long
thereafter. It continues for many today because they still refuse to utilize
biblical money management instruction to guide their financial affairs.
If you have a
history of undisciplined use of loans (credit cards, car loans, etc.)
then you should immediately discipline yourself to stop using them and build an
emergency fund of at least $10,000. You need to cut up credit cards and throw
them away when they will continue to bring torment into your life.
If you are a
disciplined spender who stays well within established budget boundaries, a low
interest revolving credit card will generally not hurt you because you will
only use it for convenience and record-keeping purposes where you will only
make purchases already accounted for in your budget and you never charge more
on these cards than the amount of cash you have available in the bank minus
your monthly bills, saving, investing, tithing, and giving.
Though
scripture does not absolutely say you cannot take on any debt, it strongly
advises you to live debt-free and that God desires debt-freedom for you. The compounding interest nature of most debt
will wreck your ability to build wealth for the future. The enemy knows this
and tempts you to satisfy the cravings of your flesh using debt instruments.
However, when you commit to God’s plan of living debt-free He will provide your
every need without you having to borrow to supply it. When you refuse to take
on debt, you enable the LORD to supernaturally provide by moving others to
provide needs and desires at no cost when you're unable to purchase them.
Please pray for this ministry, email me with any questions,
and contact me to speak at your business or ministry conference or workshop.
May the LORD bless you richly as you follow His plan!

MoneyWalk 54 Giving Blesses You!
You honor the
LORD when your monthly budget recognizes you will first give to the Church (the
local representation of Jesus Christ’s body on earth) the proportion of
income scripture instructs. Laws require most employers to automatically take
income, FICA, and Medicare tax from employees’ gross pay and forward it to
federal, state, and local governments. The fact that you cannot actually give
to the LORD first is not dishonoring to Him in this situation because you
cannot change this government mandated process. He wants your heart to be
aligned with giving first of the after-tax income in your control. Spending
first on desires when you have not proportionately given shows you do not trust
Him to care for all your need while you follow His instructions.
That house,
car, or other material desire is not more important than following His
commands. Let your heart be transformed in the area of managing income and
giving so you can say like the psalmist, “Obeying your every word is my
necessary food!” When you follow scriptural instructions God will take care of
all your need and many times way beyond that even though the picture may look
grim at the moment.
The
scriptures about Abraham, Jacob, faithful Israelites as well as Jesus
instructions in Matthew 23:23 and the example in Hebrews 7:8 show your tithe
given to Jesus’ (through Church leaders who truly serve Him and His aims)
is received by Him in Heaven. It is the starting point for determining
faithfulness managing income to glorify Him. He also desires that you give
free-will offerings to help the gospel reach unbelievers and lead them to Him
and away from the path of destruction. The organism and mechanism He
established to carry out that mission is His organized Church lead by elders
who equip believers and administer all the physical aspects needed to make it
happen (meeting places, tools, classes, volunteers, paid staff, instruction to
deacons and volunteers, etc.).
Giving ten
percent (the tithe) and an offering do not keep people from having their
needs met, living an abundant life, or building wealth. Most often, lack of
good financial stewardship (planning / budgeting income and expenses,
eliminating debt, and failure to save and invest) causes them to dwell in
poverty or a few paychecks away from it. With faith in the Living God,
ninety-percent of your income less an offering and required taxes is more than
enough to live on and build wealth throughout life.
Being a
faithful giver may require you to sacrifice some pleasures and reduce the
amount you're currently paying creditors in order to tithe and give offerings
to God. However, in due time, He will supernaturally bless your finances and
rebuke the devourer for your sake. You will obtain money needed to pay all
creditors what you owe them, stay out of debt, and live in abundance well into
the future. Wholly put your trust in Him and not in what you think is best
based on your limited view of the situation, surroundings, and future. You will
be blessed and rewarded beyond measure for doing so!
Please pray for this ministry, email me with any
questions, and contact me to speak at your business or ministry conference or
workshop. May the LORD bless you richly as you follow His plan!

MoneyWalk 53 How Much Is Enough?
The bible
warns everyone not to love money, no matter the income they earn or assets they
accumulate in life, because loving money will fail you. While money can help
you properly care for many situations, just when you think you’ve earned or
accumulated enough, you’ll experience a problem too big for money to resolve.
The bible
tells everyone to trust in Jesus Christ because he provides the salvation for
everyone who believes in Him that take cares of everything you need eternally. Also,
His Spirit living in believers guides you in the way to live out His will on Earth
so you can help provide everything needed to take care of your natural earthly
responsibilities. In addition, He lets you know only what you do for Him will
last. He will not forget your labor of love toward Him and His people. Through relationship
with Christ and obedience to His will and ways you are helping build an eternal
habitation in Heaven and a portal on Earth for other people to find Him and
experience the depth of love and prosperity in Him you’ve come to know.
The bible
identifies lifestyle principles and general areas of blessing that all believers
can experience while on Earth. There are also some material things He provides for
the faithful (rich and poor) that they don't have to pay for. Yet, there
are some rewards that even believers do not get when they are lazy, slothful, apathetic,
and disobedient in following biblical instruction and the Holy Spirit’s
guidance concerning engaging daily / regular spiritual tasks (worship,
praise, thanksgiving, prayer, bible study, fellowship with saints, declaring proclaiming
His will, vision-casting, evangelizing, making disciples) and natural
earthly tasks (working hard, building good relationships, pursuing
worthwhile higher education, learning valuable skills and trades, pursuing godly
opportunities, promotions, and benefits that are progressively more profitable
for you and the Kingdom of God, etc.). Such profitability along with good financial
stewardship allows you to tithe and give more discretionary income as offerings
to your local church and other ministries so the gospel can be spread in your
community and worldwide and be a blessing to many others.
Live in love,
humility, and concern for others while you engage good stewardship and the
profitability and prosperity it produces. Then you will understand you should
never have feelings of superiority toward other people no matter the amount of money,
material things, position, power, fame, or prestige you acquire. Fulfilling His
purpose for your life according to the gifts and callings He gives you will glorify
Him, give you more from which to serve others, and allow you to experience the
fulfillment He desires for your life. Following His instruction helps draw into
your life the people, resources, money, etc. you need to be the Great
Commission partner He wants.
The parable
of the talents and minas show He expects you to properly manage your talent,
mind, income, and assets according to His commands. No matter the size of your
income you can, in an abundant way, deliver the gospel to other people. You can
expect great blessings when you follow His instructions.
The opposite
form of lifestyle and money management (many people unfortunately choose)
is predicated on the belief that the winner of life’s race is the one with the
most money, stuff, position, power, and earthly influence. It brings eternal if
not earthly destruction and fails to provide you and other loved ones with the
principles, fortitude, and activities necessary to be truly successful in God’s
eyes.

questions, and contact me to speak at your business or ministry conference or
workshop. May the LORD bless you richly as you follow His plan!

MoneyWalk 52 Diligent People Are Economically Blessed
This program will help
you undo financial bondage.
Start working
to please the Lord instead of man. This heart attitude positively changes the
environment in which you work and moves the LORD to provide more opportunities
for your upward mobility. If you become a diligent worker who doesn't complain,
your present situation will become a link to the next higher step in God's
spiritual and financial development for you. He'll show you how to stretch your
current income and He'll increase it at various points in the future through
promotions and new opportunities that may be in fields and places other than
your current employment.
It is
unhealthy to allow a root of bitterness to take hold because you believe God or
men owe you something more than your current income. The enemy wants to use
this to bring about depression, excessive stress, mental / emotional problems,
physical disability, and other ailments as well as unhealthy beliefs and
actions against other races of people. In addition, such an ungrateful attitude
is normally accompanied by unfaithfulness to assigned tasks. This causes you to
suffer emotionally, financially, and spiritually because it does not allow your
diligence to be seen by those around you and thus does not provide an avenue
for elevation by the mighty hand of God. In fact, the rotten fruit produced by
it will ultimately result in your being abased in life and, when
unrepentant, in eternity when it causes
you to forsake relationship with Christ.
Be diligent
and for the most part aspire to lead your life in quietness and peacefulness
while producing good work. When you see your job as a blessing instead of a
burden you oil the godly networking machine so it can positively change your
financial future. Many opportunities will come your way as a result of a
diligent attitude and faithful actions. This will bring promotions and
increases that lead to elimination of debt, wealth building, and business
ventures that were not possible when you were discontent and full of
negativity.
Another
benefit that accrues through diligence in living out biblical principles
including those related to your finances is that you will overcome the
destruction caused by engaging in worldly financial behaviors. For example,
people who decided and acted to eliminate debt and live debt-free and stuck
with that plan found that they are not negatively affected by ways in which
many institutions and employers use credit histories to determine prices,
interest, and penalties you pay now and in the future for merchandise and services.
Another example is people who saved three months or more in emergency or
business surplus funds have a far greater ability to withstand economic
disruptions to their employment income and business revenue than those who paid
no attention to sound personal and business financial practices and simply
continued in good economic periods to rack up debt and financial obligations to
get things that were desired but not really necessary.
These folks
use debt sparingly and responsibly, if at all, and only on business endeavors
or assets that have a long-term history of appreciating in value. Thus, they
tend to increase incomes during the course of their careers at a far greater
rate than peers, do not experience negative credit history outcomes, and build
far more wealth than peers. Living according to biblical principles produces a
responsible and dependable character in you and serves as a guard against the
financial problems and bondage many other people experience.
Please pray for this ministry, email me with any
questions, and contact me to speak at your business or ministry conference or
workshop. May the LORD bless you richly as you follow His plan!
