MoneyWalk 298: Always Lift Up Other People

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

God declares grave consequences for anyone who causes one of His saints to stumble from the truth of the gospel and the specific mission for which He made them. As you mature in relationship with Jesus Christ through intimate prayer and listening times, you will learn how to lift up others in this most holy faith and how to eliminate communications and actions that are stumbling blocks to other people.

When you manage money and obtain wealth using worldly principles, you are leading others who watch you secretly and/or openly onto the broad path that leads to spiritual destruction. In order to lead yourself and others into the fullness of relationship and fellowship with Jesus Christ that he desires for us, you must learn biblical money management principles and methods that line up with them, consistently use them, and speak positively about your financial future and all those who are doers of the Word and not hearers only.

Allow the Holy Spirit to constantly evaluate by the Word whether you are being a good steward of the possessions God entrusted to you and a good example to other people. Always follow His instructions. Otherwise, you are and will continue to be tricked by the enemy into a following a materialistic, greedy, arrogant, and irresponsible pathway for managing your life and money that will never glorify God and lift up other people.

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

MoneyWalk 297: Share The Reason For Your Hope

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Every person is continually tempted, everyone must go through trials, and all will experience loss in this life. Believers will face ridicule, persecution, and some will be killed for their godly witness on earth, but guaranteed victory over obstacles, true prosperity, and a heavenly home await you when biblical principles are patiently applied throughout your life. First, and foremost that you confess in your heart Jesus as LORD & Savior and next that you earnestly desire to follow His instructions for all arenas of life no matter the physical, mental, or emotional cost.

Satan wants to put a kink in your armor to make you feel like you cannot live a victorious life in Christ and be blessed while pursuing His will. So, he’ll plant the thought that you’re only as successful as your title and income. Then, he’ll push you to achieve using principles and methods that are immoral or that leave God out of your day-to-day activities. Further, he’ll use various means to instill the belief that there are no biblical financial and business principles to follow or he’ll say God’s principles are obsolete and do not work in this present world. Finally, he’ll plant minions all around to celebrate the material things they see you purchase as the verifier of your spiritual position in God.

Each of these tactics of the enemy of your soul exert great pressure on you to keep doing things the world’s way in order to obtain coveted titles and income levels. You must keep a sharp focus on God’s will for the church and His plan for your life because the LORD’s agenda for you life combats what satan is plotting and pursuing it guarantees your success in Christ.

MoneyWalk 296: Don’t Complain, Honor God

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Only five to ten percent of all people are in good financial condition. This small group live content, self-controlled, and servant-minded with regard to others people’s true need for Jesus Christ. They are committed to living constructively debt-free and managing all money God entrusts to them in a way where they control expenses so they know they are continuously far less than their take home pay. They follow a simple budget so well that they have plenty of money left over throughout each year that can be applied to savings for emergencies and for big ticket items they know they will need or want in the future (special offerings, different house or car, vacation, wedding ceremony, etc.). Each year, they are also able to put at least 10% of their gross pay into a diversified portfolio of equity investments that have proven track records over ten or more years of paying high average annual interest and/or exponential growth. They are grateful with much thanksgiving for the intimacy they share with the LORD and the Church family. They are reputable in their dealings, known for paying back what is owed to others, and for being a blessing in the lives of those around them.

Many of the other ninety to ninety-five percent of people often complain about their position in life, the jobs they hold, and their relationships with spouses and/or other people. They’re up to their necks in debt, are often broke again shortly after getting paid, and continually buy more expensive houses, cars, boats, campers, cabins, and clothing above their income and asset level. They quickly replace these items with more expensive ones while paying lenders enormous amounts of down payment, closing costs, and finance charges over the term of the many loans they have outstanding. They act as if they cannot live without continually getting loans for everything they need and want.

Yet, many wonder why their lives and finances are in shambles. Some have been taught that the LORD wants to pour more money and expensive material things into their lives but requires no accountability, responsibility, and discipline from them. Of course, this could not be further from the truth. Many have simply not studied to show themselves approved as workmen that need not be ashamed because they rightly understand the Word of Truth and all its instructions on good stewardship of their lives including money entrusted to them.

Despite this predicament, help is on the way when they decide to have faith in God’s way of living. You can change your spiritual and financial situation from negative to positive when you leave the former way of doing things and begin to regularly worship the LORD by praying to Him, studying scripture, fellowshipping with Christians, using your gifts and skills in service to others, tithing, budgeting, eliminating debt, refusing to cosign, saving, investing, and diversifying. A whole new world awaits you, free of complaints about your current and future condition and full of testimonies to other people about your life full of God’s abundant peace, joy, blessing, and reward.

MoneyWalk 295: The LORD Speaking and Living Through You

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

You do not have the power to convict people into a relationship with Jesus Christ. Nor do you have the ability to convince them that they need to be cleansed by Him to bring forth good fruit in their lives. Only the Holy Spirit can convict them of sin, righteousness, and judgment. However, you do have the ability in every situation to speak the truth in love while sharing the eternal consequences of unbelief and worldly habits.

This is called planting the seed and watering it. By doing so you become a strategic connection through which the LORD shares His awesomeness, loving kindness, and plan of blessing and reward with many other people, while leaving the convicting and convincing to Him. You’ll find many people will ultimately find relationship with Him because of the planting and watering work that you do by faith. Some will accept Him now and some later. Your love for people shown by communicating the gospel and living by example will help them inherit eternal life, put off destructive worldly habits, and prosper in God’s calling while on earth.

An important area of witness is communicating and living in proper money management. This glorifies God by helping you abundantly fund gospel ministry and care for your family while being a good example to all the other people around you. It's important they know Jesus provides a personal relationship and instructions that allow them peace over finances and every other area of life. So, don’t be afraid to share and show the entire scope of the good news at every opportunity to all kinds of people while leaving it up to God to bring forth the increase in due time in their lives and finances.

MoneyWalk 294: A Balancing Act

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Properly balance your life by giving a tithe and offering to God thru the Church from each paycheck you receive, by appropriately caring for your family, by eliminating debt and seeking to remain debt free, by saving, by regularly fellowshipping with believers, and by evangelizing and making disciples within your network of family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and acquaintances.

When your life is not balanced according to biblical instructions, it is ripe for Satan to destroy through your ungodly habits and activities. Lack of proper balance is seen in mindsets and actions like stinginess displayed by failing to give the Church and other ministries the portion of your income God instructs, by thinking money and material things provide what you need to truly make your life secure, by failing to devote time to gospel ministry while pursuing worldly positions and passions, by displaying materialism in spending every bit of each paycheck and borrowing even more to spend while failing to save reasonable amounts to help you stay out of financial bondage and make it through emergency and catastrophic situations that scripture says you will inevitably face.

These mentalities place you in uncomfortable positions when situations arise in which money is needed because you won’t have it available to alleviate the problems and you will likely have to suffer negative consequences due to your lack of discipline, planning, preparation, saving, and investment to help reach the destiny God has for you. However, righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost and a life of financial freedom await you when you seek and walk in the balance the LORD designed for you. So be encouraged to do it God’s way even though His way often seems unusual to other people and different than the way the world teaches and wishes to conform you to.

MoneyWalk 293: The Best Communication

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

It's important that your answers to people’s lifestyle, success, and prosperity questions are based on scripture, so they can have the right foundation to build upon. Understand that you do not have to be a theologian or quote scriptures or know every single answer to every question. Such questions give you and the inquirer an opportunity to study a particular subject more thoroughly and meditate on what you find. When you regularly study scripture and listen for the Holy Ghost’s direction, you’ll take fruitful actions and remain within godly boundaries.

Your study along with prayer will help you give glory to God above all else. It will provide a lifestyle that is rich in the peace and joy of God. Also, it will show you how to meet your needs and obtain money, resources, and relationships necessary for fulfilling the purpose and reaching the destiny God has for you.

As you walk out life using biblical money management principles, people will ask how you came to be so blessed, yet some will ridicule your behavior. These reactions are opportunities to tell of Jesus Christ’s power to positively change lives. Seeds will be planted for many others to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord at some point in their lives when you can clearly tell them what He did for you and display it in your lifestyle. Always remember, the best communication plants and waters gospel seed thereby allowing God to help it take root and grow into a fruitful plant to abundantly bless your life and others.

MoneyWalk 292: Teach Even Though Some Oppose You

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

You cannot make anyone believe the truth, because the LORD gave them freewill while they’re on earth that allows them to believe a lie if they want. Each person must get to a point where they finally regard the Holy Spirits conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment more than they do satan’s deceit that keeps them living in bondage to sin while thinking that they will never be judged for it at the end of their days on earth and may on earth receive negative consequence for engaging in it.

In order to know the truth and have faith in God’s plan they must hunger and thirst for righteousness. Until they do, they'll make up reasons to dispute and ridicule the truth and your witness. This should not stop you from obeying His commands by looking for opportunities to bring others to a deeper relationship with God. Jesus told you to expect worldly people’s ridicule and persecution as you communicate the gospel and live by His principles! Some people will not believe some or all of God’s lifestyle and financial principles. So, the best avenue you can take with these people is to plant and water the gospel seed given to them when you’re able but don’t argue with them.

If given greater room, briefly explain your biblical basis for good stewardship and be ready to identify scriptural verses and stories to support what you say. Also, be able to give your testimony outlining how biblical financial principles have allowed you to become a good steward of the possessions God entrust to you and direct them to other people and/or resources who can shed more light on the subject when they want such knowledge. Finally, continue to pray fervently that the planted and watered seed will soon take root and grow to produce fruit pleasing to God.

MoneyWalk 291: Honor the LORD By Helping Others

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

You should care enough about people to want to see their needs taken care of and to help take care of people’s needs directly and/or through supporting organizations that exhibit good stewardship in faithfully ministering such needs. Foremost, you should care for the needs of those in the household of faith as a witness to unbelievers of the common and unbreakable bond we have in Christ Jesus.

Many other Christians will join you as part of the local church or in small group endeavors to provide food, clothing, shelter, etc. that others lack. Unbelievers will also take part in a good cause. Therefore, telling others about the need you know about and encouraging them to join you in satisfying it fulfills God’s plan for you all to show love and produce good works throughout your lives. Most local Churches have an established process to help take care of needs in their congregation and often have funds set aside to help meet needs of people in foreign lands as they go about spreading the gospel. Do not use your Church’s benevolence program as an excuse for not reaching out on your own to provide additional help in proportion to the manner in which the LORD blessed you.

Putting Christians first also entails looking for and using Christian owned businesses that deal honestly and promptly in carrying out the duties of their trade. This will also honor God and bless the owner and employees by providing revenue for them to care for their businesses and households. In addition, you’ll bless the Church because they'll pay tithes and give offerings from your payment in order to help spread the gospel. Further, you’ll bless yourself with the excellent product, service, and fellowship you receive from them and God will provide you with even more so that you are able to continue to be a great blessing to Him and other people.

MoneyWalk 290: Choose Blessing Today

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

Anyone who dies without accepting Jesus Christ as Savior and LORD will be eternally damned. He shows mercy by drawing you to Him and giving you the free will to have relationship and intimate fellowship with Him. So anyone who is damned has chosen and aimed at this end. For as long as you are on this earth, to your very last breath, He continues to invite you into His family. Yet, He will not override the choice you have made nor accept any other religion, philosophy, or pathway to Him and Heaven because He declared Jesus Christ is the only way to eternal life.

This sounds rather harsh to unbelievers and immature Christians because they have been socialized and cultured in a humanistic mindset that thinks the clay can tell the potter what to make it and what its purpose is. Yet, the LORD alone (omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, righteous, and just) gets to determine why He made you and how he made you and the choice you must make in order to be in His eternal family. Thus, only when a person chooses to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ while on earth will he experience paradise thereafter.

Do not eternally damn yourself by rejecting Jesus Christ who is the only pathway to eternal life. Instead, choose to be forever blessed by accepting Him as your Savior and LORD. Then, understand that His holy scriptures imparted to mankind require certain actions from you while on earth in order for valuable earthly rewards to come into your life to benefit you. With His life in you all the power needed is available to help you manage your life including finances in a way that pleases Him. You will progressively learn the actions that by faith are pleasing to Him as you daily read the bible and pray, weekly fellowship with the Church, and ask the Holy Spirit for wisdom in order that you lack nothing. You’ll now and forever be glad you did!

MoneyWalk 289: A Biblical Financial Plan

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

In order for you to be of the utmost financial service in this world, build meaningful treasures, and please the LORD’s heart the bible instructs you to faithfully tithe and give abundant offerings for ministry works, live within your means, stay out of bondage to debt, refuse to cosign for others, help the poor and oppressed obtain basic needs, organize your affairs by saving and investing in order to meet future needs and responsibly resolve emergency situations, place this money in seven or more investment vehicles, and leave an inheritance for godly seed.

Don't pay to get advice from worldly people that does not line up with the principles for prosperity God identified long ago. In order to know the difference you must study the bible and ask the Holy Spirit for wisdom to see and understand scriptures that identify traits of good stewards. On your journey through this life He will show you teachers who will help you see the way more clearly. They will provide written articles, audio and video tapes, live workshops, and counseling sessions to help educate you about the things important to Jesus Christ and His church concerning the financial arena.

His word declares He will liberally give you the wisdom needed if you simply ask Him for it and are willing to be a doer of the Word and not a hearer only. Budgeting tools will become available as well as opportunities to save and invest a reasonable portion of your income in a diversified manner. You will find that having a biblically based financial plan will enhance tithing and allow you to give abundant offerings and enhance your financial position by eliminating debt. As the chains of financial bondage are broken you will have a new found freedom and ability to consistently give in a way you have never given before and live in a God-pleasing way you have never lived before.

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