Anyone who is in debt way over their head knows what it feels like to be in bondage. The American lifestyle is conducive to getting in and staying in debt because people are not satisfied with moderation. They think they want or need more and more just to be happy. God’s will is for us to be free, not live in debt. To get your house in order it requires that you honor God’s order of doing things.

God has a lot to say about money in the bible. In fact there are over 2300 versus about it. Why are there two times more scriptures on money than faith and prayer combined? Scripture clearly indicates a connection between a person’s spiritual life and his values concerning money and possessions. What you HONOR is truly at the root of who will be your master.

I don’t think the body of Christ has fully understood the whole truth about God’s principle of HONOR. If you don’t understand something you can’t fully embrace it and most likely you will abuse it out of ignorance. If the church doesn’t understand honor they can’t model and teach it to the world. God is really big on honor and has a lot to say about it in the bible. It is directly connected to all of life.

Think of what it is like when your throat is parched and you are thirsting for a fresh drink of cool water. Likewise in the spirit, it is just as refreshing when you receive a fresh word from God that you truly need. Today I came to the well and drank deeply of God’s living Word regarding financial principles.
