The Right Foundation!!

¹¹ Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.
Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom;
you are exalted as head over all.
->>>> 1 Chronicles 29: 11 NIV

As Christians, we are challenged to relate to the authority and sovereignty of GOD in every aspect of our lives. this is especially important regarding our relationship to money. As we develop proper attitudes and scriptural principles of relating to money, we can trust that GOD is working with us and controlling the circumstances of our lives. The result of this confidence is personal peace and contentment.

The following are four essential foundation stones in building a biblical relationship to money:

1. GOD Owns - "For all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours" (1 Chron. 29:11). But christians must recognize GOD as the owner, not only of heaven and earth, but also of all your possessions. this knowledge will free you from the selfish outgrowths of a possessive attitude, and produce a godly perspective concerning your money and possessions.

2. GOD Controls - "For all things come from You" (1 Chron. 29:14). many scriptures throughout the Bible remind us that GOD rules in the affairs of men. having this confidence allows us to relax when facing the potential fears and concerns over financial matters.

3. GOD Provides - "For your heavenly FATHER knows that you need all these things" (Matt. 6:32). GOD has promised to provide for all of our needs. we can relate confidently to the future knowing that we serve a CREATOR who both cares and provides for us each day.

4. Our Commitment - The final foundation stone to be set in place is our commitment to obey the financial principles of the LORD who owns, controls, and provides. We must renounce our ownership and independent ways, and commit ourselves to becoming good stewards of what GOD has entrusted to our care.

Managing Your Money!!!

Biblical Principles of Money Management!!!!

Is money important to GOD? many Christians handle their money as if it were not. They assume responsible Christian stewardship over other realms of their lives but often neglect this important area. They prematurely conclude that GOD is spiritual and money is only natural and carnal and, therefore, GOD is not interested in this subject.

If we closely examine the many references to money in the Bible and consider how often the LORD Himself referred to it in HIS teachings, our opinion and perspectives will radically change. In the gospels alone, one out of every ten verses relates directly to the subject of money. Sixteen of the thirty-eight parables are concerned with the handling of money and possessions.

GOD does care about money management and has given us in HIS Word the blueprint for the proper stewardship of our finances. This is the main purpose of this blog!!!!

Then you finally need to read this because it could change your life!!!!!

Prosperity After Turning to the LORD

¹ When all these blessings and curses I have set before you come upon you and you take them to heart wherever the LORD your God disperses you among the nations, ² and when you and your children return to the LORD your God and obey him with all your heart and with all your soul according to everything I command you today, ³ then the LORD your God will restore your fortunes ^[a] and have compassion on you and gather you again from all the nations where he scattered you. ⁴ Even if you have been banished to the most distant land under the heavens, from there the LORD your God will gather you and bring you back. ⁵ He will bring you to the land that belonged to your fathers, and you will take possession of it. He will make you more prosperous and numerous than your fathers. ⁶ The LORD your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, so that you may love him with all your heart and with all your soul, and live. ⁷ The LORD your God will put all these curses on your enemies who hate and persecute you. ⁸ You will again obey the LORD and follow all his commands I am giving you today. ⁹ Then the LORD your God will make you most prosperous in all the work of your hands and in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your land. The LORD will again delight in you and make you prosperous, just as he delighted in your fathers, ¹⁰ if you obey the LORD your God and keep his commands and decrees that are written in this Book of the Law and turn to the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

The Offer of Life or Death

¹¹ Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach. ¹² It is not up in heaven, so that you have to ask, "Who will ascend into heaven to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?" ¹³ Nor is it beyond the sea, so that you have to ask, "Who will cross the sea to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?" ¹⁴ No, the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart so you may obey it.

¹⁵ See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. ¹⁶ For I command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess.

¹⁷ But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them, ¹⁸ I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.

¹⁹ This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live ²⁰ and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the LORD is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
