3 III. PRINCIPLES AND PRECEPTS Biblical Wisdom: Provisions vs. Protection But if anyone does not for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever. (1 Timothy 5:8 NKJV) Where does wealth come from? Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; unless the LORD guards the city, the watchman keeps awake in vain. It is vain for you to rise up early, to retire late, to eat the bread of painful labors; for He gives to His beloved even in his sleep. (Psalm 127:1-2 NASB) What does this mean? Do not weary yourself to gain, cease from your consideration of it. When you set your eyes on it, it is gone. For wealth certainly makes itself wings, like an eagle that flies toward the heavens. (Proverbs 23:4-5 NASB) Implications? Security vs. giving, etc....from everyone who has been given much shall much be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more. (Luke 12:48 NASB) Free to Enjoy Moreover, when God gives any man wealth and possessions, and enables him to enjoy them, to accept his lot and be happy in his work-this is a gift of God. (Ecclesiastes 5:19 NIV) Time is a Tool Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your will be also. (Matthew 6:19-21 NIV) Session 13 Kingdom Advisors Training 3
4 IV. PROCESSES AND UNDERSTANDING Implications: 1. Every spending affects net worth 2. Net worth is the sum total of every spending decision ever made 3. Delayed gratification 4.

5 6. Primary determinants a. Lifestyle b. c. Taxes 7. Role of passive income 8. What are the implications of accumulating more than enough? a. Investing b. Giving V. PERSONAL CONVICTIONS Ron s personal convictions on Net Worth: 1. You cannot accumulate enough to financially secure, significant, or successful. 2. How much is enough will differ for every family and is a number that should be determined prayerfully. 3. How much is enough will change over time as change. 4. Net worth is always and only a measurement of God s provision. Session 13 Kingdom Advisors Training 5
