Message summary & scripture references
For many believers, lack of financial stability is a hindrance to the calling God has given them. It is not a hindrance because God can’t use us if we are in lack. However, in many cases, financial lack causes us to focus our time and creativity inwardly instead of outwardly. An inward-focused mind is in the wrong position to hear God for the fullness of the vision.
Therefore, in the Bible, we see many times how God provides for people’s personal financial needs first, and then they step into a major area of their vision. Listen to today’s Daily Word to learn more about this idea and discover why the Lord has the need of money coming to you now.
