Be diligent to know the state of your flocks, and look well to your herds.— Proverbs 27:23 (AMPC)
When my mom was in her eighties and still alive, she had a bad habit of thinking she could spend whatever she saw on her bank statement, so she did. She would often forget to look ahead and manage her money in such a way that would last her the whole month.
Sadly, many people struggle with this same tendency, and it causes them problems—sometimes major problems. We should always be diligent to know what we have to spend and how much we owe. God has called us to be people of integrity who steward our finances wisely. If we use what we have well, He will gradually give us more.
If managing finances is a challenge for you, I encourage you to ask the Holy Spirit to lead you and help you grow in this area. As you do, He’ll empower you to do so much better than you thought you could.
Prayer Starter: Father, please help me be intentional to manage my finances in a healthy way. Thank You for guiding my steps so I can learn to spend, save and give in the right amounts. In Jesus’ Name, amen
