Be Honourable

-
Someone once asked, “Does God bless borrowed
money, including borrowed money given to Him as
offerings and seed?”
There’s nothing wrong if you borrow money, but make
sure you pay back; otherwise, God doesn’t like it. The Bible
says, “The wicked borroweth and payeth not again.” God
describes the one who doesn’t pay his or her debt as wicked.
God wants you to serve Him with wholehearted devotion,
and willingness of mind, but at the same time, with honesty.
Your integrity should be impeccable.
There’re people who don’t have credibility, and don’t
care about their integrity. When they owe, they refuse to pay,
and start praying for debt cancellation. Others deliberately
stay away or hide from their creditors. This is wrong; it’s the
way of the wicked. The word “wicked” in our opening verse
describes one whose ways are perverse; someone who isn’t
walking in the light of God; and that shouldn’t be you. If you
owe any debt, don’t let it linger; pay promptly.
Most people who don’t pay back when they borrow,
lack integrity, and as a result, they delay their own blessing. If
you’re an employer, don’t owe your employees their salaries.
When people work for you, don’t delay their payments.
We’ve been called to live a higher life. We’re the light of the
world. Let the character of Christ be expressed through you
always, and in all things.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I rejoice greatly,
Be Honourable
WEDNESDAY
13
because I know that you care for
me, and all of my needs have
been entered into your supply
system. I don’t lack any good
thing, and I owe no one, for I’m
abundantly supplied; I’m
prosperous, and in all
circumstances, self-sufficient,
requiring no aid or support.
Thank you Father, for all things
are mine, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

What does the Bible say about setting goals?

The Bible offers a balanced approach to setting goals that includes making plans yet doing so with wisdom and humility. Jesus’ illustration of building a tower implies that it is a good thing to have set goals ( Luke 14:28 ). To live with no motivation or planning is not God’s desire.  Proverbs 6:6-11  says, “Go to the ant, O sluggard;     consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief,     officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer     and gathers her food in harvest. How long will you lie there, O sluggard?     When will you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber,     a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber,     and want like an armed man.” Laziness causes a person to neglect work and fail to exploit the window of opportunity. Summer is the preparation time for winter, and we dare not wile it away. Failure to plan ahead will result in “poverty” and “want.” Wisely setting goals leads to better results: “Th

How do I know if I am a Christian?

Jesus taught that the condition of a person’s heart will manifest itself in his or her behavior: “No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart” ( Luke 6:43–45 ; cf.  Matthew 7:16 ). So, when considering whether or not you are a Christian, you can consider the kind of fruit that is produced in the life of a Christian: 1.  Complete trust in Christ’s death and resurrection as sufficient payment for the debt we owe God.  A Christian is one who  trusts Christ  exclusively. Doubts come when we fear we must add something to the work of Christ to ensure our salvation.  Ephesians 2:8–9  makes it clear that we are not saved by our works, but by God’s grace alone. No matter how righteous we may appear, none of us come close to e
