Financial Fitness 101: Tip #4

Tip #4: “God will supply  all our needs according to His riches in glory” (Philippians 4:19)

Do I really need this? Most of us shop by impulse or to satisfy an aching soul. We need to learn discipline when it comes to money! Ask self is this proposed purchase a “need” or a “want?”  Did you plan for this purchase  or is this impulse spending? When we discipline self with godly principles, “God will supply  all our needs according to His riches in glory” (Philippians 4:19).

A couple disciplines to adopt are: 1) setup a monthly budget and use it; 2) establish a predetermined among of money to spend on items small or large. For example build into your budget $10 to $15 monthly toward small items to purchase on days you need to treat yourself, and for larger items costing $250 or more must be planned for and worked into your budget. This will eliminate impulse spending and teach you valuable discipline skills. God delights in doing good for His children, so trust Him with your wants and needs. Matthew 6:33 encourages us to “seek the kingdom of God, and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you.”
