VICTORY OVER THE NATIONAL DEBT
12 Days of Prayer Day 20
Written By Justin Noah Citro
“Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another;
for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.”
Romans 13:8
Today, financial setbacks are one of the things crippling the Church and God's people. Money, as we know, is needed for material things in order to survive in the world, but when it comes to the spending of said money, that comes with its own set of problems. Debt occurs when too much money is spent on things that are needed and not needed.
Let's put this into this perspective: If we are in debt to sin, who bails us out? See it is God's will not to see His children fall into the debt because being in debt is sin, but yet He still gives us free choice over our lives. Also if we are comparing national debt to sin, then the whole world is bankrupt and dead to sin, for sin comes to steal, destroy and fills the nations with debt that cannot not be repaid without the cleansing power of the Blood of Jesus Christ. Let's us now go into the bible to see what it has to say about debt. The Bible says in the book of Romans 13:8, "Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law." What this verse means is that the only debt that we who are saved to pay is to simply love one another now that alone is something that is hard to do on it's own but look at it from this point what is worse being in forever debt to sin or freedom and in love though Christ Jesus? Without Christ we have no victory over the darkness that is in the world today. It is only though the Son of Man that we have victory over darkness! My Brothers and Sisters, I close with this: do not be frightened to proclaim victory in the name of the Lord for He has delivered us into victory!
Prayer: Dear Lord, Thank You for the victory over national debt. Thank You for every other victory that You have given us! Lord, we come before You rejoicing that You are our victor. Lord, we thank You for everything. In name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!
