This program will help you undo financial bondage.
When you take advantage of a person who is suffering financially you are not being a witness of God’s goodness. When someone is hurting and you fiercely push him to sell possessions he desperately needs for pennies on the dollar, you must ask yourself whether you could have been a better witness by refusing to purchase items necessary for his day to day living.
It is a different matter when he decides, without your pressure, that he needs to sell material goods in order to be a good steward to financially care for higher priorities according to God’s design for life. Let the person make the decision that things of value need to be sold instead of putting any pressure on him. In this manner, you refuse to allow greed and covetousness to take root in you. Buying his unnecessary material goods in this scenario helps you maintain pure intentions and will help him obtain money to pay for products and services that are necessary for him to get out of the financial ditch. It is best to act as a Good Samaritan gifting what you can, rather than seeking to make your life more comfortable and pleasurable by taking his necessities through purchases and loans / usury interest you are well aware he is unlikely to be able to pay. Loaning money to someone you know cannot pay you back, will not give cover to an evil plan to take his stuff.
Never purchase anything that will take you or anyone else away from consistent daily bible reading, worship, praise, thanksgiving, prayer, and weekly fellowship with the saints and don’t purchase products and services from people that are sinful in nature or that lead to sinful activities, unless you’re definitely and immediately going to toss them in the trash, knowing you purchased them only to get the person some cash for things that fit within God’s plan for their lives (food, transportation, shelter, clothing, etc.). For example, if you know he has a set of collectible magazines that would fetch a hefty price in the market yet contain ungodly themes and lifestyle encouragements, then you need to forego that purchase, no matter how much it seems the money could help him, unless you will immediately throw them away so that you and no one else will ever be negatively affected or cursed by them. It is not Christ-like to purchase anything that leads to the undermining of gospel preaching, teaching, and living at home or around the world. You will be immensely blessed and rewarded as you maintain a Good Samaritan stature toward others throughout your life!

The book at the link below provides principles and practical steps that help you use the Power To Get Wealth. By 1992, we had $135,000 of debt and a negative $35,000 net worth. Financial bondage and turmoil led me to seek principles and a process for employing good stewardship. As a result, we became constructively debt-free in 1998, mortgage free January 2004, millionaires in 2012, multi-millionaires shortly thereafter, and retired in 2018 in my mid-fifties from public servant jobs while giving abundantly to fund the gospel of our LORD Jesus Christ. The same power is available to you!
