Description
Everyone, both Christian and non-Christian, wants to achieve financial success. We’re all
trying to achieve our goals and maximize our personal happiness. On the other hand, we’re all
unique because each of us has different goals driven by our individual values.
The authors of this book believe that success is the act of continually becoming the person God wants you to be and achieving the goals God helps you to set. If your perspective is “Whatever God has given me, I am using it for His goals and objectives,” your view of financial success is decidedly different from the contrasting worldly perspective stated in the familiar one-liner, “I want what I want when I want it.” Depending on your perspective, you’ll set different goals and take different actions. You work out your values, goals, and priorities through a series of daily decisions about money.
God is very interested in your success and prosperity. He told Joshua, Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. (Joshua 1:8). In fact, when it comes to finances, the Bible has more than two thousand verses where God provides specific instructions in how to manage money so that you can be successful.
This biblical guidance is invaluable in helping you establish the values that form the foundation of your financial goals. Beyond that, the Bible offers the encouragement and faith that enable you to pursue those goals despite the ups and downs of the world economy and the stock market. Almost every day offers you a new set of challenges and opportunities to make wise financial decisions. Your faith can inspire both the perspective and the perseverance necessary throughout your lifetime journey toward achieving your goals.
