The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the
righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth (Psalm 37:21).
Someone once asked, “Does God bless borrowed money,
including borrowed money given to Him as offerings and seed?”
There’re people who don’t have credibility, and
don’t care about their integrity. When they owe, they refuse to pay, and start
praying for debt cancellation. Others deliberately stay away or hide from their
creditors. This is wrong; it’s the way of the wicked. The word “wicked” in our
opening verse describes one whose ways are perverse; someone who isn’t walking
in the light of God; and that shouldn’t be you. If you owe any debt, don’t let
it linger; pay promptly.
Most people who don’t pay back when they borrow,
lack integrity, and as a result, they delay their own blessing. If you’re an
employer, don’t owe your employees their salaries. When people work for you,
don’t delay their payments. We’ve been called to live a higher life. We’re the
light of the world. Let the character of Christ be expressed through you
always, and in all things.
PRAYER: Dear Father, I rejoice greatly, because I
know that you care for me, and all of my needs have been entered into your
supply system. I don’t lack any good thing, and I owe no one, for I’m
abundantly supplied; I'm prosperous, and in all circumstances, self-sufficient,
requiring no aid or support. Thank you Father, for all things are mine, in
Jesus’ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY: Proverbs 20:7 The just man walketh in
his integrity: his children are blessed after him.
Romans 13:7-8 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute
to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to
whom honour. 8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that
loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
Psalm 11:3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can
the righteous do?
