Jeremiah 5:25 Explained

Reading through the Bible you will know doubt discover many scriptures that talk about the blessings of God upon His people. Many people then wonder why they are not experiencing those blessings since they view themselves as a Christian.

Unfortunately, the qualifications for blessing are not based on how we view ourselves, but how God views us. The reality is that many so-called Christians do not live a Christian lifestyle. The subsequent lack of blessings in their life is directly related to their lifestyle choices. The good news is that God always offers people a second chance. If you are not currently experiencing the blessing of the Lord, try living a life that is in accordance with His Word and see if He doesn’t bless you with “good things”.

Psalms 37:21 Explained

While debt is never a good thing to have, there are times in life when it can’t be avoided. Few people can afford to buy a house or a car without obtaining a loan. However, those are generally the only things you should have to go in debt to buy. 

In today’s economy, we are experiencing the fallout of individual’s reckless spending habits. They went in debt to purchase anything and everything, and now many think they should not be responsible for paying back that debt. Home foreclosures are escalating as homeowners that have borrowed excessively to live in that home are now making the choice not to pay back that loan. 

Of course there are always exceptions to the rule and there may be times in your life when you genuinely can’t repay money that you have borrowed. However, you should never ever borrow money that you don’t intend to repay or that you don’t have a plan to repay.
