Money... that's what's up!

People are usually willing to talk about anything, but when you start teaching on money they get freaked out! Well here are some simple things on money from Dave Ramsey! Hope you enjoy and just do them!

Write a Game Plan

Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. What is the first thing you will do? Won't you sit down and figure out how much it will cost and if you have enough money to pay for it? Luke 14:28

What's your plans for the future? Do you have it in writing?

Do you act Your Wage

Without guidance from God, law and order disappear, but God blesses everyone who obeys his Law. Proverbs 29:18

Don't spend more than you make! Live within your means, stop usinng them credit cards!

Have you started to Save Money

Be sensible and store up precious treasures--don't waste them like a fool. Proverbs 21:20

Are you acting like a fool and living paycheck to paycheck? Hey I didn't say it, the Bible did!

Are you working to get out of Debt

The poor are ruled by the rich, and those who borrow are slaves of moneylenders. Proverbs 22:7

I don't want to be a slave to nobody! The only thing we have financed is our home. We cut up our credit cards and we've been paying them off!

Are you a Biblical Giver

You people are robbing me, your God. And, here you are, asking, "How are we robbing you?" You are robbing me of the offerings and of the ten percent that belongs to me. Malachi 3:8

Some say, "well this is old testament" I say OK, let's look at new testament!

If you give according to what you have, you will prove that you are as eager to give as you were to think about giving. It doesn't matter how much you have. What matters is how much you are willing to give from what you have. 2 Cor. 8:11, 12

I like the part that says as you were to think about giving! lol Stop thinking about it and GIVE! Paul said it very well Phil. 4:17

I am not trying to get something from you, but I want you to receive the blessings that come from giving. I have been paid back everything, and with interest. Philippians 4:17, 18

Now this blessing thing is taught in old and new testament!

I am the LORD All-Powerful, and I challenge you to put me to the test. Bring the entire ten percent into the storehouse, so there will be food in my house. Then I will open the windows of heaven and flood you with blessing after blessing. Malachi 3:10

We all know this, but we just have a hard time doing it.

I hear all the time; I know if we gave, God would bless us, we just can't give right now! huh?

It’s so simple a program, so simple that we won’t do it!

If someone looked at your monthly statements, what would your spending say about your heart?

Would they see a giver?

Can you think of some mistakes you've made with money that made you change the way you handle it?

Are you making mistakes now that need to be changed?

What money habits will you change to become weirder with your finances?

Pray and ask God to reveal to you how He would like you to be in giving. He will show you, if you take the time to really learn what He wants.
