This week we started the Financial Peace University classes. There is great teaching from people like Dave Ramsey available, but remember it is teaching from the Bible about money that we need to model our lives. Spend time today learning and how you can apply God's wisdom.
Proverbs 10:4 - Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent
hands bring wealth.
Proverbs 14:23 – All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk
leads only to poverty.
Proverbs 22:7 – The rich rule
over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
Proverbs 23:4-5 – Do not wear
yourself out to get rich; have the wisdom to show restraint. Cast but a glance
at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to
the sky like an eagle.
Proverbs 30:8-9 – Keep
falsehood and lies far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me
only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say,
‘Who is the LORD?’ Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of
my God.
Proverbs 3:9-10 – Honor the
LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then
your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new
wine.
Proverbs 11:24-25 - One man gives
freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. A
generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.
Know the Word and apply God’s wisdom to your life. Amen?
