God's Plan for Abundant Living: Five Biblical Principles upon which to Build You

Description: God's Plan for Abundant Living by David R. Finch This book is a presentation of five fundamental and biblical-based principles by which God would have us live our lives. They are not original to me, only discovered by me. They came out of a nine-hour seminar that had been developed in the 1980s. It is organized by each individual principle along with several chapters which illustrate how these principles can be applied to our financial circumstances. To illustrate these principles, they are likened to the building of a house. Each principle represents a step in the process of building a house. At the end of each principle, as well as each chapter, there is a personal application which I hope will help people apply that principle/chapter to their personal lives. The book is organized from start to finish on the concept that we are human beings created by a God who have given us a plan by which to live our lives, a plan that goes beyond the materialistic focus of most people in the world today. It is a book for persons who are willing to discover how God can direct their financial lives to be fulfilled according to His plan, which in turn will provide them with a level of fulfillment that can only be found by following His plan.

Excerpt from Book "Gods Plan for Abundant Living" The following are Forewords from the book, one by Dan Shankle, DD, and one by Diane Fortner: Comments by Dan Shankle: I am pleased to submit this foreword to this book, because the entirety of this book is based on the biblical concept of men and women and their relationship to God. David Finch has used scripture throughout this book magnanimously--not just as supporting evidence for his arguments, but rather as the starting point. Strong in experience and daily living, Davids work is very easily absorbed into everyday life itself, because it is about life itself. Pastors will find the message herein a valuable source of inspiration and strength as well as marvelous material for sermon preparation. The message of this work will touch, in a wonderful way, the life of every person genuinely concerned with his or her relationship to God, the church, and to his or her fellowman. Gods word has so much to say about revolving charge accounts, easy payment loan plans, mortgages, installment purchasing, and indebtedness in general. Although the myriad of financial plans and schemes that get us into so much trouble today came into being long before the Bible was written, Gods principles of financial management are timeless. This volume by David Finch is a road map to financial health for the average person. David is a Christian financial teacher who has dedicated his life to helping Gods children escape the "debt trap". "Gods Plan for Abundant Living", by David Finch, belongs in the home of every Christian couple, the library of every Pastor and counselor, with every Christian businessperson, and on the gift list of every person who know a couple about to embark on lifes greatest adventure--marriage. This is not a volume one will read one time and put aside. This is a reference guide, to which one will refer again and again. I highly recommend "Gods Plan for Abundant Living" by David Finch to anyone who truly seeks to be a faithful steward. Comments by Diane Fortner: The greatest achievement Ive experienced in this life is learning how my finances and my faith in our Creator are so closely intertwined. This is no accident. This is Gods plan. Just as God forgives us and gives us a new hope and a new future when we repent of our wrongdoings, so does He give us renewal in our finances when we acknowledge our limitations and ask Him for guidance. Ive personally experienced this not just once, but twice. The first time was about 30 years ago. At that time, I had maxed out my credit cards and owed money far beyond my means. I had lived a life of Riley, and finally came to realize that my debt was now like a noose around my neck, strangling the life out of me. I sought help only to be told, "You dont make enough money." Well, duh! Thats when I first met David Finch of Emmanuel Credit Management. He assured me that, no matter how little money nor how great a debt I had, that God was still God, and that, if I trusted Him, then I would be out of debt in five years. I was willing to live on a tight budget because I had HOPE for the first time ever! I had only been in the program a short time when I found I needed money for emergency surgery on my dog and a new engine for my car. But, because I was trusting in God and obeying what He had said to me through David, I actually had money for both emergencies, and I paid them off immediately. No credit card. No debt. Cash in hand. The dogs life was saved, and the car lasted me several more years. Only God creates miracles. And its important for us to remember that these are miracles, and we must remember to thank our Lord when these miracles manifest. Sometimes it looks so simple that it cant possibly be from God (I thought David was a miracle-worker), so we forget to give Him the thanks He deserves. Thank Him, for he is showing Himself to you, that He loves you personally. Almost 20 years later, I found myself again in debt. I had forgotten how the Lord protects us through our finances, and I had once again succumbed to the use of credit cards. Yes, again I called upon David to help me out. This time I praised the Lord all of the way through the situation: I praised Him for my job (which I really didnt like but I was grateful I had it); I praised Him when I gave my check to David and received only a small portion back on which to live; I praised Him whenever I spent what little I had because at least I had enough for rent, food, transportation, and clothing. At this time I was also supporting my son and his family of three. I had very little money, but I always had enough. I thank God to this day for his provisions, including the fact that I was able to tithe throughout this period. In trusting God first, who brought David into my life and into my finances, I realized that He was in turn teaching my kids how to trust in God for all things. When your finances are impacted, your life is impacted. When your finances are healthy, you have more vitality and experience hope more readily. When your finances are diminished, it is difficult to see a bright tomorrow. I am again out of debt, and I have a very high credit score so that I have actually been pre-approved for a house loan. Who would have believed that only a few years ago when I had once again felt the noose around my neck? I praise God for the freedom that I now have through Him, and through what I have learned about His faithfulness by trusting in Him. I thank David Finch for being Gods willing and obedient servant, who taught me HOW to apply Gods principles of faith and finances and how so much good flows from them. Not only do I have a future and a hope, but my children also have the same blessings as long as they have learned these lessons as I have. This book will help you, the reader, to apply Gods principles in faith and finances, and you too will find encouragement to lean on Him through all things, through poverty as well as in wealth. Always pray, giving thanks in all things, and knowing with certainty that all things do indeed turn out for the good of all who trust in Him. Its important to always remember: Our obedience allows God to work His will in our lives. We think we have to beg Him for help and that He doesnt want to help people who have done something wrong. When we remember that He gave His son to die on the cross to save us sinners, that shows right there how wrong our thinking is. God loved us first; He loves us still; He will always love us. So to be obedient simply allows Him to work freely in our lives, the way He wants to work, abundantly, for our sake and His glory. Enjoy your life in Christ. Embrace your life of debt-free living, where giving generously to those around you brings life-giving joy! Details ISBN1496966422 Author David R.
