April 26, 2017 Guard Your Signature
To co-sign means to sign along with someone else. The contract will now have two signatures, yours and your friend’s. By cosigning you and your friend are committing to pay back the loan with interest. The reason your friend is asking you to cosign, is because the bank does not think your friend is a […]

To co-sign means to sign along with someone else. The contract will now have two signatures, yours and your friend’s. By cosigning you and your friend are committing to pay back the loan with interest. The reason your friend is asking you to cosign, is because the bank does not think your friend is a good risk and might not pay back the loan. Another reason the bank has chosen not to loan the money to your friend is they do not have sufficient assets or collateral to cover the cost of the loan.

In place of shortcuts to have our needs met, consider many of the scriptures in Proverbs that magnify diligence and warn against laziness. “A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich. He who gathers in summer is a prudent son, but he who sleeps in harvest is a son who […]

In place of shortcuts to have our needs met, consider many of the scriptures in Proverbs that magnify diligence and warn against laziness.

“A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich. He who gathers in summer is a prudent son, but he who sleeps in harvest is a son who brings shame.” (Proverbs 10:4-5)

April 11, 2017 Becoming Rich Quickly
“Whoever hastens to be rich will not go unpunished” (Proverbs 28:20b). Be wary of “get rich quick” schemes. If they seem too good to be true, they probably are. Be more concerned with the condition of your heart if you are pursuing “get rich quick” schemes. “He that hastes to be rich hath an evil […]

April 04, 2017 Just & Fair
God is just and fair. “A just balance and scales are the LORD’s; all the weights in the bag are his work.” (Proverbs 16:11) And He appreciates fairness and justice in our dealings with one another, and He has very definite opinions about unfair business practices. “Unequal weights and unequal measures are both alike an […]

March 28, 2017 Purchasing With Peace
Being led by the Spirit of God is my last piece of purchasing wisdom. It is definitely connected to praying and asking God for assistance, but it is more about understanding how God directs us, and speaks to our hearts. Being led is one of the many benefits of having a God who knows how […]

Being led by the Spirit of God is my last piece of purchasing wisdom. It is definitely connected to praying and asking God for assistance, but it is more about understanding how God directs us, and speaks to our hearts. Being led is one of the many benefits of having a God who knows how to communicate with each one of us.

“For all who are led by the Spirit of God, are sons of God.” (Romans 8:14)

Often God speaks to us through another individual and more often than not, through His written word, but there are times he communicates with us directly.

March 22, 2017 Purchasing Carefully
You have heard “haste makes waste”. Here is the scriptural basis for that idiom. “Thus says the Lord GOD, “Behold, I am the one who has laid as a foundation in Zion, a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation: ‘Whoever believes will not be in haste.’” (Isaiah 28:16) Salesmen understand […]
