Building Wealth God’s Way: Biblical Keys to Increase Your Net-WorthНамуна
Freedom from Debt’s Chains
Welcome to day three! Today’s message is centered around breaking free from the chains of debt. A necessary step to free our minds and our hearts to focus on flourishing.
Debt can often feel like a weight that holds us back, and Proverbs 22:7 reveals the spiritual truth behind that feeling—debt puts us in a position of servitude. Financial debt can drain our resources and energy, limiting our freedom to serve, give, and live with peace.
God desires for us to experience the freedom that comes with financial stability and wise stewardship. When we take steps to reduce and eliminate debt, we’re actively aligning our financial lives with His design for us.
God desires freedom for you, and that includes freedom from financial bondage. He wants you to experience the relief and joy that come with being unburdened by debt.
Freedom from debt means making choices today that prioritize long-term peace over short-term desires. In a culture where debt is normalized, this can be challenging. However, choosing to tackle debt intentionally, whether by adjusting spending habits, creating a budget, or finding extra income, is a powerful act of faith.
This journey requires a dependence on God to provide both the resources and the focus needed to stay on course. As you free yourself from debt, you are creating space to be more generous, support God’s work, and live with greater financial and spiritual freedom.
He blesses us; we bless others.
