Trusting God With Your Finances | Proverbs 3:5. Ep. 171

Trusting God With Your Finances | Proverbs 3:5. Ep. 171

For the past several weeks, we've been discussing how the Bible can help us build wealth. We've talked about stewardship, pride, wisdom, and the financial principles found in God's Word. This week, we're taking a deeper look at one of the most well-known verses in Scripture: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding." – Proverbs 3:5 In today's world, everyone has an opinion about money. Social media tells us to use debt to build wealth, leverage credit cards, borrow more, and chase the next financial trend. But what happens when our understanding conflicts with God's wisdom? In this episode of the Wealth Is a Journey Podcast, I share how I asked God to help me become wealthy—not by handing me money, but by giving me a plan. That plan included: • Creating a budget • Reducing expenses • Building an emergency fund • Investing consistently • Trusting the process We discuss: • What Proverbs 3:5 means in our financial lives • Why trusting God is difficult in a world full of financial noise • The difference between knowledge, wisdom, and understanding • Why many financial mistakes come from leaning on our own understanding • How God often provides a plan before He provides the increase One of the biggest lessons I've learned is this: I asked God for wealth, and He gave me a strategy.

Why Wisdom Creates Wealth. Ep 170

Many people want wealth. Few people pursue wisdom. In this episode of the Wealth Is a Journey Podcast, I discuss one of the most overlooked financial principles found in the Bible: wisdom. Proverbs repeatedly encourages us to seek wisdom and understanding because wisdom helps us make better decisions with our money, relationships, careers, and lives. The truth is that many of our financial struggles aren't caused by a lack of income—they're caused by poor decisions. And poor decisions are often the result of ignoring wisdom. In this episode we discuss: • Why Proverbs places such a strong emphasis on wisdom • How pride prevents people from receiving instruction • The connection between wisdom and wealth building • Why listening is a financial skill • How better decisions can dramatically change your future • Why God often provides direction before He provides increase I also share personal stories and lessons I've learned about listening, receiving instruction, and how applying biblical wisdom helped shape my financial journey. If you're serious about building wealth, start by pursuing wisdom. Because wisdom helps you keep what wealth provides.

The Bible Made Us Wealthy. Ep 169

For a long time, I thought my financial situation would eventually work itself out. I thought if I just kept working hard, making money, and staying busy, everything would be fine. But looking back, I realized something was standing in my way: Pride. In this episode of the Wealth is a Journey Podcast, I share how pride was impacting my financial decisions and why I believe it keeps many people stuck financially today. Sometimes pride looks like: Refusing to ask for help Ignoring financial problems Avoiding accountability Thinking we already know everything Believing things will magically get better without changing our habits The Bible has a lot to say about pride, humility, wisdom, and seeking counsel. As believers, many of us pray for financial blessings, but when the blessings come, we often lack the discipline and stewardship needed to maintain them. In this episode, we discuss: • What the Bible says about pride and money • How pride can quietly sabotage your financial future • Why asking for help is a sign of wisdom, not weakness • The importance of humility in wealth building • How stewardship and discipline create long-term financial success • Why financial freedom starts with being honest about where you are today Sometimes God sends money. Many times He sends wisdom, instruction, and a plan.

This is how to win with money. Ep 167

I recently saw someone say that budgeting is keeping people broke. And honestly… I understand why some people feel that way. For many of us, the word “budget” feels like restriction. It brings up emotions tied to growing up without money, struggling financially, or constantly feeling like we can’t enjoy life. But in this episode of the Wealth is a Journey Podcast, I break down why budgeting isn’t the problem — lack of control is. We talk about: • Why so many people emotionally resist budgeting • How childhood experiences shape our relationship with money • The difference between restriction and financial control • Why wealthy people budget differently • How budgeting creates peace, clarity, and long-term freedom A budget isn’t designed to stop you from enjoying life. It’s designed to help you stop living paycheck to paycheck and start building wealth intentionally. Because real freedom comes from control — not chaos.

What Do You Believe? Ep 166

A lot of us grew up believing things about money that were never true. We were told: * “People like us don’t become wealthy.” * “If you grew up poor, that’s just your reality.” * “You need multiple streams of income and nonstop hustle to build wealth.” * “Bad money habits can’t change.” But those beliefs are exactly what keep people financially stuck. In this episode of the Wealth is a Journey Podcast, I break down some of the biggest lies people believe about money, wealth, and their future—and how those lies quietly shape our financial decisions. I also share personal stories about how I had to challenge my own mindset around money, investing, discipline, and wealth building. We talk about: • Why your upbringing does not determine your financial future • How limiting beliefs keep people living average lives • Why wealthy people believe wealth is possible before they see it • The connection between fear, mindset, and financial growth • Why consistency matters more than perfection You don’t have to stay trapped in the same financial cycle you grew up around. You can learn differently. You can move differently. You can build wealth differently.
