Having continual difficulties financially. Have made choices based off of prayer and seeking God's will that have put myself into even tougher financial difficulties. Struggling with taking focus off of how things appear and then trusting that God has/is seeing me through this. Need peace.
 
I'll keep you in prayer brother.

With 2350 verses about stewardship, you should be able to read the word like a finacial workbook...lol. There is a thread about this. I'll try and find the link for ya.

God bless,
Nigh

There is 2350 verses in our Bible about "stewardship" ($ and possesions). Jesus himself spoke more about this subject than almost any other. In contrast, the Bible contains around 900 verses on "salvation".

Our God IS concerned about how we handle money. He is aware how much of our lives depend on money. He knows that money can take His place in our lives as an object of idolatry. That is why he speaks so much about it.

But in God's ecconomy, all the money in our account is really His money. We own nothing, but rather are appointed stewardship over it. Once you realize that it is God's money and not your own, you start to be more careful how you spend it.

Use this test...If, knowing that it is God's money, you'd be willing to spend it on that while he is standing rite next to you, then it's probably ok. If not, then you better reconsider.

There are several books written about using money the way God intended. Goto your local Christian bookstore and buy your freind one of these. I'd suggest one for yourself as well. ;)

Some verses to concider...

Eph 4:28
IIThess 3:12
Prov 31
Phil 4:6, 19
Psa 24:1
ITim 5:8
2Cor 8-9
Gal 6:6-10
Matt 6:11 ITim 6:8
Ex 20:18 ITim 6:9 Heb13:5
Prov 28:20,22
Prov 13:11
Prov 15:27
ICor 8:9,13

I just finnished a biblical financial study...can you tell? lol


God bless you brother,
Nigh
 
I will keep you in prayer. In this day and age financial troubles are more common than financial peace, at least in New York anyway.

Keep the faith in Jesus brother

Heavenly Father I bring this situation before you. I pray that you will impart wisdom to justin1979, and help him to sort things out. We know that you are interested in everything about us. I pray Lord that you will prosper justin1979, and make him a blessing.

Amen
 
Thank you, Nigh, for posting the Bible verses.

"Trust in the LORD with ALL your heart and lean not on your OWN understanding."

Are we leaning on our own understandings about things?

Lift your heart up to the LORD, cry and wail, repent, and He will come to your rescue.
