Topic: THE DIRECTION - Financial Direction
Word: Isaiah 30:21 NKJV
Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” Whenever you turn to the right hand Or whenever you turn to the left.
Here's My Take:
Financial Direction disciplines our approach, attitude, and application of money. It shapes our minds to focus on what truly matters rather than on every desire that comes to mind. It makes us financially responsible, disciplined, and accountable.
A story was once told about two friends. One was a wealthy businessman and philanthropist—rich, influential, and widely respected. The other was an activist who was still struggling financially.
One day, the activist asked his wealthy friend to give him money to rent a bungalow. Instead, his friend advised him to rent a flat. The activist was offended by the advice. He ended their friendship and even began speaking negatively about him.
Unknown to him, his friend's advice was actually in his best interest. It was not that the businessman was unwilling to help him rent a bungalow—he could easily have done so. Rather, he understood that while he might be able to pay the first year's rent, renewing it when it expired would likely become a burden. So, he wisely advised his friend to cut his coat according to his cloth.
That is what Financial Direction does—it discourages financial irresponsibility and teaches us to live within our means instead of trying to impress others with a lifestyle we cannot sustain.
Conclusion:
One of the easiest ways to identify financial irresponsibility is by observing how a person spends money they do not have. Financial wisdom is not measured by how much money you earn, but by how wisely you manage what God has entrusted to you.
Song:
Life is easy, when you're up on the mountain
And you've got peace of mind, like you've never known
But things change, when you're down in the valley
Don't lose faith, for you're never alone
For the God on the mountain, is still God in the valley
When things go wrong, He'll make them right
And the God of the good times, is still God in the bad times
The God of the day, is still God in the night
Prayer:
Oh Lord may we become financially responsible in Jesus’ name, Amen.
