Financial priorities are important, because as with anything you want to achieve if you don't have a vision or picture of where you want to end up you will never get there.
In setting your financial priorities, you also have to look beyond your current financial situation, because as my Pastor, Bishop Williams, has taught us at The King's Cathedral, your past doesn't have to dictate your future (unless you let it).
Now your financial priorities do not spell out how you will achieve them, but rather the financial goals that are important to you and that you want reflected in your financial plan (your budget). Speaking of budgets, many people set out to develop a budget without first having established their financial priorities. As a result, they never fully realize the financial prosperity they could realize. So establish your financial priorities first.
But understand thst establishing your financial priorities will take time and effort, and cannot be done strictly on your own. It takes prayer and guidance from God, help from other people, and use of a variety of resources available to assist you. In addition, married couples should develop their financial priorities together, and not on his own or her own.
In the next Post we'll begin to cover the best ways to establish your financial priorities, starting with prayer.
