Day 4: Financial Intelligence

Financial intelligence is about being a faithful steward of the resources God has entrusted to us. The Bible speaks extensively about money—not because it is evil, but because it has the potential to control our hearts. When managed wisely, finances become a tool for blessing, generosity, and kingdom impact. However, when mismanaged, they can lead to stress, bondage, and misplaced priorities.

Wise financial stewardship involves budgeting, saving, and living within our means. It also involves generosity—understanding that everything we have ultimately belongs to God. When we honor Him with our finances, whether through tithing, giving, or wise investments, He blesses us with provision and peace.

Prayer:
Lord, help me to be a wise steward of the resources You’ve given me. Teach me to manage my finances with integrity, live within my means, and be generous in supporting Your work. I trust You as my ultimate provider. Amen.
