Money Margin

This message confronts one of the most stress-inducing areas of our lives: finances. But here's the liberating truth—our money struggles aren't really about math; they're about lordship. Drawing from Proverbs and the teachings of Jesus, we're challenged to examine where we've taken control instead of surrendering to God's wisdom. The sermon explores three transformative decisions: running from debt like a gazelle fleeing danger, spending less than we make by creating intentional margin, and putting God first through tithing. What's fascinating is how Proverbs 22:7 describes debt as slavery—not just a financial burden, but spiritual bondage. When we lack peace in our finances, it reveals where we haven't given God the throne of our lives. The promise of Malachi 3:10 isn't about God needing our money; He wants our hearts. When we trust Him with our wallets, we're actually learning to trust Him with everything. This message reminds us that financial freedom isn't about having more—it's about being rich where it counts, in the things money can't touch. The supernatural provision that comes when we obey God's financial principles defies logic, but countless testimonies confirm it's real.
