Christian Counseling Debt and The Bible

“The king was filled with pity for him, and he released him and forgave his debt.” Matthew 18:27

Is debt biblical? It is not a sin to be in debt but the Bible does have a lot to say about being good stewards of what we have been given. The bigger sin is being too prideful to admit your condition and your current financial condition and look for help or advice. There are Christian counseling centers to help with Christian debt removal. The sooner help is sought the sooner obligations and debts can be corralled and brought under restraint. It is a humbling ordeal to go through, but you are not alone. We gain from our our life experiences to better serve the Lord and to reinforce our faith. If you have a financial situation do not wait to seek Christian Counseling Debt because someday you may be able give spiritual or financial help  to a fellow Christian, family member or co-worker.

“The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.”
Proverbs 22:7

We are called to be good stewards of our money. Often times we see ourselves in debt for very good reasons. There could be an illness, rendering you unable to work. In these precarious times, we are seeing more and more people being laid off or hours cut substantially. There are regular monthly payments that are due and we may find we do not enough to pay them. Sometimes credit cards are used to pay bills and the debt begins to build. It can become overwhelming and a Christian debt elimination service may be needed.

Pray First

“Listen to me!, you can pray for anything, and if you believe, you will have it.” Mark 11:24

Take all things to the Lord in prayer.  Does this mean all things you pray for will be granted?  The Lord always answers our prayers, not in the way we may have expected or in the time frame we want. Jesus prayed when He was on earth.  He prayed while in the wilderness as well as in the Garden of Gethsemane.  Jesus prayedif it is possible may this cup be taken from me..  He still had to go through what He was sent to do, die for our sins and transgressions.  We may still have to prevail some trials for the situation we are in, but He has promised to take care of us.
