18/03/14) [REBUKE THE DEVOURER] “The rich man’s wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the poor is their poverty” (Proverbs 10:15) God makes it abundantly clear in the pages of the bible, that it is His desire to bless and prosper His children financially. But if the truth be told, most believers are just barely getting by financially. The most amazing thing is that this condition has very little to do with income. People who earn a lot of money still find that they are broke. So the problem is not with how much is coming in, but with what we do with it. Its not what is coming in, its what is going out. The average person spends a minimum of 20% of their wages paying off debts. This means that in every eight hour day, 1 hour 36min is spent working for the creditor. This is one day every week. 50% of divorces are related to unmanageable debt. No wonder the bible says the borrower is servant to the lender - Proverbs 22:6-7. Most parents raise their children in homes with 25 to 30 year mortgages. Mortgage by the way means death grip. They take those children to school in cars bought on a 5 year hire purchase agreement. Most young guys even buy their clothing, phone on credit. What a tragedy! But God wants you to be financially free. Deuteronomy 15:6, John 8:36. You are not really free financially until you are free from debt. One of the first steps you need to take in order to be financially free is to know how to rebuke the devourer of debt. God’s word to you this morning is, “STOP BORROWING!” It will enslave your destiny. Selah! Pray with me, “I receive grace to live a debt free life”. Remember God loves you; and so do I. Have a Fruitful Tuesday.
