A Life of Debt is a Heavy Burden

 “There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; But a foolish man spendeth it up.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭21:20‬ ‭KJV‬‬

A fool and his money are soon parted!  In wisdom’s house you’ll find delightful treasures and the oil of the Holy Spirit. But the stupid squander what they’ve been given.  In the credit card debt ridden society that we live in, it is easy to be foolish and believe you know it all and everything will happen just the way you want it to happen and you’ll be out of debt, it’s just a matter of time!  For those who trust in Jesus, they forget that God has called us to be stewards of all the money He has given us, it belongs to Him and not to us.  We sin against Him by depending on ourselves and not on Christ for we have experienced the extravagant grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that although He was infinitely rich, He impoverished Himself for our sake, so that by His poverty, we become rich beyond measure.  Let’s depend on the exceeding great riches of the exchange that Jesus made on the Cross and depend on the wisdom of Christ.  Let’s repent of a seared conscience and the evil heart of unbelief for living according to the culture of the world today rather than living by the Word of God.  Thank You Jesus for what You did on the Cross for us all!  Amen!
