Rooted in Biblical Wisdom!
Wisdom is a skill in living that begins with fearing God, then progresses to guarding your mind, choosing your companions, controlling your body, monitoring your words, pursuing your work, managing your money, and loving your neighbor. Very simple. But that’s it. And when you’ve done that, you’ve learned wisdom. It’s vital to be taught wisdom. For example, as a father, if I fail to teach my children to fear God, the devil will teach them to hate God. If I fail to teach my children to guard their mind, the devil will teach them to have an open mind. If I fail to teach my children to obey their parents, the devil will teach them to rebel and break his parents’ hearts. If I fail to teach my children to select their companions carefully, the devil will choose them for them. If I fail to teach my children to control their body, the devil will gladly teach them to give it completely over to their lusts. If I fail to teach my children to enjoy speech that is honorable to God, the devil will fill their mouths with filth. If I fail to teach my children to pursue their work, the devil will make them lazy. If I fail to teach them to manage their money, the devil will teach them to waste it on riotous living. If I fail to teach them to love their neighbor, the devil will gladly teach them to love only themselves. And the only reason I can pass any of this wisdom on to my children is because God has graciously made it all available in the Bible.

According to Scripture, we are God's personal money managers. That means we have to work, save, and plan and do it all for the glory of God. Those are positive things we can do to gain wealth for ourselves and to share with others. Now, on the negative side: Don't do things that are wrong to get money. Don't steal. You don't take money that belongs to someone else. Another is: don't gamble. You might say, "Okay, I don't believe I'm stealing or gambling; I'm not exploiting anyone or anything; I'm just in a difficult situation. I work hard, and I want to save and plan better, but I'm always short. Why am I so short all the time?" Well, do you really need more, or do you just want more? Is God testing your trust? Are you misusing what He gave you? Have you violated biblical principles? I mean, come on, if you're not a very good money manager of what He's given you, do you think He's going to give you more? That wouldn't make a lot of sense, would it? If I had a money manager who was not doing what was supposed to be done with the money, I wouldn't give him any more; I would take away what he had. And that principle is repeated often in the Bible. Furthermore, don't be stingy because stinginess tends toward poverty. Therefore, the question to ask yourself is, "Am I generous or am I stingy?" People who are generous tend to receive more in return. Some individuals withhold, hoard, keep, and protect their resources, failing to do what they should. They're stingy and unkind. And people who are stingy usually end up with diminished resources because people aren't drawn to them and their options begin to wither. Here's another thing you have to be aware of: Proverbs 21:5 says, "Everyone who is hasty comes surely to poverty." Stinginess is devastating, but so is hastiness. Don't be in a big hurry to get everything you see. Be disciplined with your money. People without discipline, just wild spenders, and with no self-control are going in the end to be unfaithful stewards. They will diminish what they have. They will put themselves in a position to be unable to put treasure in heaven, and they will limit their eternal joy. Laziness is another thing. Proverbs 20:13 says, "Do not love sleep, lest you become poor. Open your eyes, and you will be satisfied with food." It takes energy, discipline, and generosity. Another thing that's eventually a disaster, as we well know, is what Proverbs 23 says, "The heavy drinker and the glutton come to poverty." If you're just overconsuming—in this case it's alcohol and food, but it could be anything—you're going to end up upside down for sure. So, what does the Bible say about money? 1. That we have a right to money. 2. It comes from God; He gives it to whom He will, sovereignly, in varying amounts. 3. We are told to work, save, and plan for it. 4. God will give us all that we need. 4. Everything we have, we manage for Him. If we manage our resources faithfully, they will increase and grow, and we will be blessed both in this life and for eternity. Additionally, we will be welcomed in heaven by friends who are there because we supported the gospel, and we will discover that our faithfulness with what we had on earth will lead to being given much to enjoy in heaven. 5. Having served God and not money on earth, we will enter into the joy of our Lord in heaven. Therefore, the thing to understand is that you have a right to possess money. But as God's personal money manager, you are required to be a faithful steward of all that He gives you. Repent and believe! GTY.org (42-207) - Escaping Materialism
