Biblical Principles of Finance-Ancient Path

5 Sequential Blocks of a Kingdom Builder

1.Have Faith of a Sparrow

2.Establish the Tithe in your life
3.Stepping up to your debt
4.Close the circle (close your budget)
5.Make yourself a financial Eunuch

In the Bible there are more than 2,000 verses that deals with finances compared to faith.
Jesus said you cannot serve both God and mammon.
Mammon : the name of idolatrous God
-Philistine god of prosperity
-wants allegiance of the heart.
Money is impotent
-Money is given importance by deceptive mammon
-happiness if have enough money is misleading
-money is not the end.




What are the symptoms of mammon?
1. Worry and anxiety over money
2. Money mismanagement-too much month left at the end of money
3. Greed-inordinate desire to acquire or possess
4.Stinginess (fear of tithing)
5. Mentality of "I can't afford it" - rather say How can i afford it? must ask God if it is for you so He will provide
6. Discontentment -Philippians 4:2
7. Impulse buying- can't say no to wants
8. Never having enough-spending more than earning
9. Bondage to debt
10. Exaggerated Importance of Money - overestimate power of money
