What to Do when Bad Economy Hits Home!

We have to get it through our heads that the government is not the answer to our economic woes. I unashamedly believe that God is our source. The Bible says that we are to help the hungry, the stranger, the naked, and the sick; because how we treat the least of these, Jesus sees it as doing unto Him. (Matthew 25:34-46) It even says, "If a man will not work, he shall not eat" (that's found in 2 Thessalonians 3:10). But how do we do that when we are the ones with no job and financially unable to help our own--let alone help others--in this economy? Don't despair!

In faith, shout "Halleluiah" to it all; because, you see by God's grace, every command He gives is a promise. His word is "seed" that grows to fruition when watered by faith. Yes, in the New Covenant, every command is a promise that He will bring you into full compliance with His ways when we trust him. Does that mean all out of work people are out of sync with God or lack sufficient faith? God forbid! By no means is that the case! In this world, humbling seasons come around, so that when He exalts us--in due time--we can be a comfort to others also affected by this world. Keep your eyes open and keep singing His praises, because Jesus, the Way-Maker is making a way and will bring it your direction. Let's face it, with all the messes man creates, we need a Savior and a Redeemer. Thank God, He provided Himself for that purpose. This world has it's trials and tribulations, but in God's good timing, He will provide a way to meet our needs. Recognizably, it is a struggle to fight the good fight of faith, but we must keep believing.

The government is not stimulating, but stagnating, the economy--loading us with more debt as it continues to take and want more. However, at the same time, there are opportunities being created that are innovative and practical and in harmony with God's ways. I see opportunities being created that might have been scoffed at prior to our country's financial melt-down; but, I believe are providentially inspired for such a time as this. As an example, I offer www.FreeGroceriesforIN.com. An Indiana grandmother presents this program that can be helpful to every American, making it possible to eliminate your grocery bill from your current income and make $300 commision checks repeatedly.

Being P.O.O.R, can mean we are Passing Over Opportunities Repeatedly. Check things out to see what programs really can help others, and don't be apologetic that it will help you, too, because the Bible says, "the labourer is worthy of his reward". (1Timothy 5:18) Perseverance is a difficult task. Keep believing. Keep trying. Keep moving forward in faith. My prayer, Dear Reader, is that God will specifically bless you!
