Week 5 - FINANCIAL PLANNING |
|
|
|
"Live for the line not the dot"
Randy Alcorn, The Treasure Principle
|
This week's devotionals focus on God's vision for us: living out a financial plan that puts us in a stable financial position and results in peace. This road includes many challenges - hard work, good advisors, wise choices, and following a plan. I recommended that you work closely with a financial advisor.
Learn from the Master: Memory Verse
Proverbs 27:23
Be sure you know the condition of your flocks, give careful attention to your herds
In Proverbs, Solomon, the richest man to ever live, shares much of his wisdom on how to manage finances. He challenges us to ask advice, espouses hard work, expects a plan, and promises reward for sticking to your convictions!
These next devotionals are much more practical, so plan on spending whatever time you need in prayer so that you can get direction from God on carrying out the specific challenges.
Prayerfully, all of the devotionals in this series have led you to see God's plan, his will, his sovereignty and his belief that you can be a faithful steward of what he has entrusted you with.

Day 30 : Get Advice |
|
|
|
Proverbs 15:22
Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed.
Proverbs 12:15
The way of a fool seems right to him, but a wise man listens to advice.
Proverbs 13:10
Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is found in those who take advice.
- Who is your financial counselor?
- Pray and select someone to disciple you in your finances.
- Determine to learn from spiritual men and women through discipling, reading books, and even participating in workshops to get the advice you need.
