It’s the end of the year, and Dave and Reb look back on 2019 with Rev. Ray Borg from Financial Discipleship Canada. They discuss how intentionality and commitment is so important in our financial journeys, as well as understanding how our love of money can affect our relationship with God. They continue to encourage people to depend on God in the year ahead, as well as to commit to “putting your hands on the wheel of your finances” and don’t take them off.
They find perspective and hope in the verses found in Jeremiah 6:16 and 17:
This is what the Lord says: “Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’ I appointed watchmen over you and said, ‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet! But you said, ‘We will not listen.’”
Part of the journey in depending on God in the year ahead is looking to His Word and discovering what “ancient paths” He would have for us. And then trusting Him as He leads us through.
“It’s important to pause and connect with yourself and God this Christmas and New Year’s season,” Dave says. “Then you will be able to listen to the sound of the trumpet – the warning that He gives us about the financial trouble ahead if we continue in debt.”
And this is where the hope lies. We have the presence and wisdom of God Himself leading and guiding us in our finances. Listen in and hear more of their conversation!
