Ep. 11 Wealth Series (11 of 20) The Year of Release: Debt, Generosity & God’s Wealth Plan


Listen Later

In this Sabbath session of the Wealth, Obedience, and Legacy series, we dive into Deuteronomy 15 to uncover one of the most radical wealth instructions in Scripture: the year of release.

Every seventh year, God commanded His people to cancel debts. What sounds impossible to us today was designed as a safeguard against poverty and oppression. This teaching explores:

  • Why forgiving debts was central to God’s plan for prosperity
  • The promise that “you will lend to many nations but will never borrow”
  • How generosity and open-handedness reveal whether we truly trust God
  • The difference between lending and giving generously to the poor
  • How skills, time, and resources can also be part of lending and generosity
  • Wrestling with real-life questions: What if it’s year six? What if the borrower seems irresponsible? How do we apply this outside the land of Israel?

Through dialogue and reflection, we see that biblical wealth is not only about barns being filled, but also about mercy, responsibility, and trust in Elohim’s promises.

📖 Key Scriptures: Deuteronomy 15:1–11, Deuteronomy 8, Proverbs 10
