Financial Peace of Mind from the Word: Biblical Guidance in Daily Doses ...

Almost everyone agrees that the Bible contains great advice about life, from improving your marriage to getting along with your boss at work. But does the Bible really say much about money? Does it really give us practical advice that we can apply to our own lives in today's world?

The Good News is YES! Absolutely! The Bible is as relevant and helpful today as when it was written. God has a lot to say about money. Did you know financial issues are mentioned in the Bible over 2,200 times? God must be pretty serious about this subject to talk about it that much.

In fact, Jesus says in Luke 16:11, "So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?" It appears from this verse that God uses money as a "test" of our management and stewardship skills before entrusting us with spiritual things (the true riches).

This initiative takes a different scripture on a daily basis that deals with money, riches, possessions or finances and considers what God has told us in His Word and how it relates to us today. There is more written in the Bible about this topic than anything else. Jesus repeatedly used the topics of money and possessions in His teaching ministry. He apparently knew the importance of money and yet in this modern age, we continually sidestep the subject. It is due time that we consider what God has to say about managing money!
