Building a Foundation of Biblical Principles…
God’s Ownership – we have been entrusted with what we have to manage effectively.
“The earth is the Lord’s, and all it contains, the world, and those who dwell.”
Psalms 24:1
Saving Money – saving money as a priority for emergencies, purchases, and long-term goals.
“In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has.”
Proverbs 21:20
Living on Less than you Make – learning to be content with what we have and developing a power over purchase.
“Godliness actually is a means of great gain, when accompanied by contentment.”
Timothy 6:6-10
Life after Debt – having a plan to attack the debt systematically.
“The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender.”
Proverbs 22:7
Agreed On Purpose Cash Flow Plan - Having an “on purpose” cash flow plan agreed on with spouse, if married, or accountability friend, if not.
“For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it (29) lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, (30) saying, This man began to build and was not able to finish.”
Luke 14:28-30
Four Walls – putting four walls around our basic living expenses first before attacking the debt snowball is a priority. (shelter, food, clothing, transportation)
“If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has
denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.”
1 Timothy 5:8

Money Verses
Proverbs 3:5-10
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own
understanding;
6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil.
8 This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.
9 Honor the LORD with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops;
10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over
with new wine.
Proverbs: 21:20 In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and
oil, but a foolish man devours all he has.
1 Timothy 6:6-10 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7For we
brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8But
if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9People who
want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish
and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. 10For
the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for
money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with
many griefs.

over.” –Will Rogers

with a clear plan of action. Dan Miller
