  The Responsibility of Planning for the Future (Retirement and Legacy) As believers and stewards of God’s resources, we are called not only to live faithfully in the present but also to plan wisely for the future . Responsible planning is an act of faith, foresight, and stewardship — it shows that we trust God with our tomorrows while using wisdom to prepare for them. The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 21:5 (NIV) , “The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.” Planning for retirement and legacy isn’t a lack of faith — it’s a reflection of obedience, discipline, and responsibility toward what God has entrusted to us. 1. Understanding the Need for Future Planning Many people live day to day without thinking about the future, assuming that “God will provide.” While that is true, God also calls us to partner with Him in responsible planning . Just as Joseph stored grain in Egypt during years of plenty (Genesis 41:33–36), we too are called to pre...

  Taking Responsibility for Debt and Building Wealth.  From Debt to Destiny Michael was a devoted Christian and a hardworking young man. But like many people, he struggled with managing money. Each month, his salary vanished quickly—spent on clothes, gadgets, and eating out. Whenever he ran short, he borrowed from friends or took small loans, thinking he would “catch up next month.” But months turned into years, and the debts piled higher. The more he borrowed, the more anxious he became. He stopped giving in church and often avoided calls from people he owed. One Sunday, his pastor preached on “Being Faithful with Little.” The message pierced Michael’s heart. That night, he prayed, “Lord, I’ve been careless with what You gave me.
