#79 Updater - Kingdom Prosperity #45

A couple of people have let me know they have had trouble responding to the free offer in the Post below via this Blog. So you can also respond via the Feedback Link on my web site at www.faithprinciples.net. Sorry for any inconvenience.

This will be my last Blog on Kingdom Prosperity, at least for now.

I've attempted to share a little from each Chapter in my Book on Kingdom Prosperity, covering all of the key principles as much as possible on this Blog. I pray it was enough to wet your appetite so that you desire to apply these principles in your life, no matter where you are financially right now.

While I would be honored if you went to Amazon.com and purchased a hard copy or Kindle version of my Book, God's instruction to me was to get this message out to the people. So if you send me a message via this Blog with your mailing address, I'll mail you a copy of my Book at my cost. I only ask that you request more than one copy so you can share the Book with others. This offer is limited to requests for 100 of the copies I currently have in Inventory on a first come first served basis. If after reading the Book you are blessed by and so enclined, feel free to send me a love gift of any amount.

In any event, whether you get a copy of my book or use the information from my 45 Posts on Kingdom Prosperity, it's up to you to apply the principles God has given me to share so you can truly experience the Kingdom Prosperity God has for your life and the lives of others.

I'm going to take a short break from Blogging, but stay tuned, as I'll be back in a few weeks starting a new series. Until then, be blessed!

A few final thoughts on practical principles for achieving Kingdom Prosperity in your life:

9. Sacrifice - It will cost you something to achieve Kingdom Prosperity, but only for a Season. You need to learn to say no to some of your wants, and trust God as your source to meet your needs. But when your season of sacrifice is over, you will be glad you went through it.

10. Don't try to keep up with the Jones's - Keep focused on your budget and God as your source during your season of sacrifice, and don't be concerned about what others have or get blessed with, giving in to the deception of the enemy that you have the right and deserve to have what others have right now. You don't know the season of sacrifice others may have endured to get to where they are now. So stick to your plan and your budget, and above all continue to trust God.

11. Financial Professionals - No matter how much or how little you have financially, the use of a Financial Advisor is something to consider. But first, I would recommend you go through the process described in earlier Posts and take a crack at your first draft of financial priorities. A Financial Advisor can also be helpful if you are having trouble sticking to your budget, by helping institute some disciplines to keep you on track.

I pray these practical principles for achieving Kingdom Prosperity in your life I have shared in the last several Posts will be a blessing to you, and encourage you to embrace and apply them in your everyday life.

A few more practical principles for achieving Kingdom Prosperity in your life, especially in a marriage:

5. Set your pride aside and check your ego at the door - One spouse or the other will be better at some things than than the other spouse, including your finances. So the other spouse should yield to that and let the spouse who is better at it manage the couples finances. However, both Husband and Wife need to be or get into agreement on how their financal blessings will be used.

6. Be Flexible - When you marry your spouse and you probably have different views in some areas of how to manage your finances. And though you should and may have talked about managing your finances before the marriage, you need to be flexible in the marriage and manage your finances God's way, not your way or your spouses way. The requires being flexible and letting go of your way and yielding to God's way which sometimes will be how your spouse wants to manage your finances compared to your way.

7. Openess and Honesty - To be effective financial Stewards in a marriage, Husband and Wife need to be open and honest about what each brings into the marriage financially, and how each feels about how both have agreed to manage their combined finances. Yes, you need to yield to God's will in that area, but you will be more successf if each spouse shares how they feel about that without harboring anything internally, so each spouse can support the other to work through those issues.

8. Patience and Humility - To be an effective financial Steward in a marriage each spouse needs to be patient and humble with the other regarding the management of the finances in the marriage. For example, if its been agreed that the wife will develop the budget and then after there is agreement on the budget pay the bills, the husband can't murmur or hold resentment because he thinks he could do that better than the wife is. If that is what God directed the couple how to handle those aspects of the budget and husband and wife got in agreement on that, then be supportive of the wife husbands rather than be upset, murmur or even hold resentment toward your wife, offering assistance when asked and not forcing your will in this matter,
