MoneyWalk 72 The LORD Promotes

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

God has promotion for you even when you do not get the higher-level position with your current employer. For example, you will continually be promoted far above your peers when you adhere to biblical principles that lead you to (a) know the state of your income versus expenses, (b) refuse to enslave yourself in debt and seek to eliminate it from your life, (c) live beneath your take home pay, and (d) faithfully save and invest a reasonable portion of your income during the course of your life. Unfortunately, most people refuse to adhere to such principles and thus bring themselves and their family financial strain, heartache, and headache regardless of employment promotions they attain.

When promotion seeking is not aligned with the LORD’s will, purpose, and calling for your life, discontentment will eventually come upon you. Through intimacy with Him daily, ensure you are seeking His Kingdom and not your thingdom! Otherwise, pursuit of promotion, and how your current position looks to other men, will encourage you to think negatively about your position, income, resources, and influence instead of continually thanking Him for allowing you to be in the place you are in. 

Even though your position may be great among men you’ll develop an attitude where your situation is never enough at any given time. This will lead to bad spiritual and practical habits that lead you away from the LORD’s plan for your life (workaholism, respecter of persons attitudes, lack of prayer and gratitude, forsaking wholesome relationships, failure to incorporate evangelism and disciple-making into your life and work). Negative comments about your employer, supervisor, position, and work ensue as well as pride, haughtiness, and disregard for living Christ-like.

Your present position or line of work is one from which the LORD can build right character to eventually move you to the types of work, positions, and promotions in His plan for you.  Thank Him for the maturity He’s allowing you to develop as a result. He’s helping you ensure blessings in your life do not turn into curses, like they would if you fail to manage in a godly manner your tongue, lifestyle, ministry to others, income, and material resources. Many people receive promotions at work yet continue to lack purpose, fulfillment, and right relationship with the LORD and other people.

You should seek promotion that comes through fellowship with and allegiance to Christ, displayed by bible-based good stewardship. His elevation of your earthly status will grant you things that matter most: eternal life, better relationships with family, strong and enduring friendships with reliable people, a worthy career, job, and ministry role, respect in the eyes of your peers and superiors who have spiritual eyesight, and more than enough money and resources to fulfill your purpose.

Using biblical principles produces fruit and promotion in your life regardless of whether man promotes you. When you’re humble, the LORD will raise you up in due time and make room among influential people for the gift within you.

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 71 The Best Method For Eliminating Debt

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Clearly, the LORD’s desire is that you not be a debtor. He blessed us with wisdom that would help us avoid loans and other forms of indebtedness. In order for this wisdom to benefit us, we must choose to walk down His path for our lives versus the path that the enemy wants to lure us down through the examples and advice of worldly men who load themselves down with debt and encourage us to do the same. The Debt Avalanche and Debt Snowball methods are viable for eliminating debts in the shortest possible time.

When using the Avalanche method, you pay only the minimum due on all bills except the one with the highest finance charge and the lowest balance. Place all extra money on this account each pay period until it is paid off. Now, add the monthly payment and all extra money to the minimum payment for the account next in line that now has the highest finance charge and the lowest balance.

When using the Snowball method, you pay only the minimum due on all bills except the one with the smallest overall balance. Place all extra money on this account each pay period until it is paid off. Now, add the monthly payment and all extra money to the minimum payment for the account next in line that now has the smallest balance.

Continue using the approach until all debt is paid off and remember to close each account and cut up the associated credit card once the debt is eliminated. This debt-reduction method works best when you discipline yourself to refuse to take on debt that you cannot immediately pay off in full. Choose not to use credit to purchase anything you do not have cash available right now to cover, except for a house purchase at a reasonable amount in comparison to your stable yearly income and overall wealth.

The Avalanche will get the best financial impact because you will pay less interest to creditors and more quickly eliminate debt. However, the snowball method provides the psychological boost most people need in the beginning of their journey because the quick wins of paying off a couple of debts in a short time period motivates them to continue to pay off loans and stay out of debt.

Intense focus on NOT taking on additional debt along with total debt elimination and maintaining a debt-free life is the process / good stewardship lifestyle that make it possible for you to be what He wants: debt-free, in a financially sound and asset rich position instead of the poverty-stricken position of a borrower. He wants you to release yourself from slavery (bondage) to lenders and to owe no one anything but love. This enables you to carry out His call and purpose for you to evangelize and make disciples of other people and have greater monetary means to help meet the needs of widows, orphans, and those poor & oppressed.

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!

You will find the LORD when you seek and search for Him with all your heart: His goodness will flow in & on you in service to Him and others.

MoneyWalk 70 Choose Your Reward

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Being born again requires that you accept Jesus Christ as LORD & Savior. As a result, one inherits eternal life and wonderful benefits of it: peace, joy and abundance as well as no more pain, crying, affliction, or poverty and so much more. The sacrifice He made upon the cross through His shed blood, death, then resurrection and ascension to Heaven’s throne provides the righteousness you need to bypass Hell and eternal wrath that sinfulness otherwise requires. It also requires that you take up your cross and follow Him by desiring and seeking to do His will in every area of life.

Likewise, taking up your cross, following, and obeying His commands and guidance produce abundant rewards in every area of your life on earth through good stewardships habits, discipline, and diligence. Money, resources, and godly connections you need will be available for you to fulfill the purpose for which He made you, walk the path established for you, and carry out the plan He gives you, and reach the destiny He has for you.

When you’re truly intent on loving and following Christ, the scriptures come alive to tell you how to honor Him in general and to give you specific methods for doing so. For example, faithfully tithing and giving offerings to support the Church and its gospel mission opens Heaven’s windows to reward you with immensely more that you’ll ever need. It also moves people to give to you full measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over for the purposes of allowing you to be a continuous and greater blessing to His kingdom, other people, and your family.

People who have the mind of Christ follow these principles without idolizing money and material things or making pursuit of them the priority aim of life. Pleasing God is their ultimate desire with a mind toward creating a place where righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit permeate their lives in earthly and eternal realms.

You choose your reward (good or evil) based on who you put faith in and the principles you follow. Using biblical money management principles gives worthwhile purpose and meaning to your life and moves the LORD to reward and navigate you to be a blessing to others. Failing to put your faith in Him and utilize biblical principles perpetuates earthly problems, physical or spiritual poverty, and eternal suffering no matter the level of money, power, fame, or prestige obtained on earth.

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 69 Budget For Financial Freedom

 

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Godly stewardship requires that you love not the world or the things in the world because he/she who loves material things is at enmity with the LORD. You need to engage the practice of spending far less each month than your take home pay, which is the income you are left with after taxes and payroll deductions are taken out of your gross income.

Most people regularly spend all their take home pay, as noted by the anemic savings rate in the United States and ever-increasing amount of debt on homes, car, colleges, credit cards, and recreational vehicles. A budget helps you give abundantly, save to cover emergencies, and build substantial wealth over time. It makes retirement from your current profession possible (if that is your desire) by putting you in position to engage many years of sustainable marketplace ministry using your giftings, talents, and skills to greatly impact other people.

When you work the LORD’s financial plan you will have peace and joy in your life and overcome financial problems. You will stop satan’s assault on your life brought on by unreasonable spending, debt, and lack of savings and investments. And, you will avoid future bankruptcy, foreclosure, repossession, and effects of low credit scores (high insurance premium, high mortgage interest, etc.).

1.  1. Identify your monthly take home pay from all sources. 

2.  2. Subtract tithe and offering. 

3.  3. Subtract the minimum monthly payment for each bill.

4.  4. Use the remaining cash flow to set budget amounts for groceries, household supplies, entertainment, and personal spending.

5.  5. Discretionary cash flow remaining should be used to establish the first tier $1,000 emergency fund.

6.  6. Afterward, use discretionary cash flow to pay extra (above the minimum payment) to the creditor owed the lowest total debt.

7.  7. After eliminating this debt, use the cash flow to pay the creditor with the next lowest debt.

8.  8. After all non-mortgage debt is paid off, increase your emergency fund to at least $10,000, invest at least 10% to build wealth, and make extra principal payments toward early mortgage elimination.

When the budget shows discretionary income is not enough to pay your bills and totally eliminate your debt within the next year or two, you need to employ reduction of unnecessary expenses as well as increase income through no-cost low-cost entrepreneurial efforts and second jobs. Repeat this written budgetary process (on paper or computer) for each of the next six months and make sure you consistently stay within budgeted amounts. Never let anything stand in the way of reaching financial freedom because this improves (a) faith in the Creator to provide all your need according to His riches in glory, (b) your ability to give, save, and spend in ways that please Him and help fulfill His purpose for you in the earth, and (c) peace and joy in your life.

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!
