If you’re tired of worrying about money and living paycheck-to-paycheck, you can decide now to put God’s financial principles into practice. You can change your life! They say that insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Nowhere is that more true than with money. 
<ul><li>The first step in making financial changes is admitting you have a problem and identifying what you’re doing wrong.</li><li>Isaiah 43 tells us, “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. I am doing a new thing…I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”</li><li>How do you begin to bring about a positive change?ispel the notion that God’s Word doesn’t contain everything you need to transform the way you handle money. Hebrews 4:12 reads “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.”</li><li>In Psalm 24:1 we find, “The earth is the Lord’s, and all it contains, the world, and those who live in it.” When you fully embrace that principle, everything else can fall into place.</li><li>God will not abandon you to fend for yourself. He is always with you and He’s promised to provide. Luke 12:24 reads, “Consider the ravens: they neither sow nor reap. They have neither storehouse nor barn, yet God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds?”</li><li>Once you realize that God will provide, Scripture will be your guide for changing the way you think and act concerning money.</li><li>Ask God for strength, discipline and desire to carry this out. Maybe that’s setting aside a few dollars out of your paycheck or paying more than the minimum on your credit card. Or maybe it’s putting a little more in the collection plate. Pick one and stick with it.</li><li>If you’re not living on a budget, you need to develop a spending plan now. Luke 14:28 teaches, “For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?”</li></ul>On this program we also answer your calls:
<ul><li>I’ve got lots of debt! I’ve heard about the snowball method of getting debt free. What more can you tell me about this?</li><li>In light of where the Dow is, is now a poor time to get my money out of CDs and put it into the stock mutual funds or should I wait until the stock market drops to do this?</li></ul>Remember, you can call in to ask your questions 24/7 at (800) 525-7000 or email them to <a href="mailto:questions@MoneyWise.org">Questions@MoneyWise.org</a>.
