The First Step to Freedom From Debt

Debt is an all too familiar albatross around the neck of too many in our post modern society, but debt is not new.  Before bankruptcies, there was debtors’ prison.  Can you imagine having to work for someone for years to pay off debts?  Oh, I guess we can.  That’s the reason a lot of us are chained to our 9 to 5’s. 

The wise King Solomon said that “The borrower is the servant to the lender.”  Yes, God is concerned about your debt, because when our lives are overwhelmed with it, we lack the freedom and abundance God wishes us to walk in.  His concern with out debt and its devastating effect on our lives and our future is the reason He instituted the Year of Jubilee.  This was a year when all debts were cancelled and people were given the opportunity to come out from under its oppression and start fresh.

If debt is overwhelming you personally or professionally, because Success is Spiritual, I believe God has a Jubilee for you.  I believe that if you are faithful in handling whatever debt you may have, God will give you a debt reduction plan.  He did it for a widow whose sons were on their way to debtor’s prison, in the Second book of Kings, chapter four.  He can do it for you.  Ask Him for wisdom in overcoming your debt and remain in consistent obedience to whatever He tells you to do.
