I just finished reading NOT IN MY HOUSE! by Pastor Andre Butler. This is an excellent book. It is a book that you want to get for other members of your family. NOT IN MY HOUSE! shows you how to recession proof your home. It starts with tithing and giving offerings. I was challenged to go back and create a budget. I had created one before but I am really going to try and abide by this budget.
Afterwards, I am still in awe as to how I have been paying my bills and doing what I do. This book will challenge you to enter into God's system instead of the world's system. We have been sold a bill of goods and think that using a loan to buy a house and a car is God's best. It is a decent and normal way of doing things but it's not God's best.
Now, many people are finding themselves in situations where they are trying to save their homes. I have been through foreclosure and it is not a pretty picture. I was tithing but I was over obligated and a small business partner in a non-profit foundation. I had a lot going on and have often been a risk taker. I have a new mortgage and I am current on it in the midst when many are losing their homes. My property value even went up this year. I am a tither and I am also using more wisdom regarding the things that I do.
You need to purchase this book and send it to those who need help. Many people have boycotted God and the church and sat home in their big houses on a Sunday morning when they should have been giving God glory for showing His glory. And others have been going to church on a regular basis but were caught up in the world's system that was stacked against them allowing them to borrow more than they actually needed to. Then you had some big companies that started laying people off which added fuel to the fire. I believe the favor of God is upon the Saints in the form of the loan modifications and witty inventions and books and movies and other ideas that God is pouring out to his people. I believe that God is birthing ministries in people during this time.
There are so many good nuggets in this book until I can't really get into everything. You need to purchase the book and read it for yourself and declare that despite the recession it will not affect your house. Even in the Bible, God did mighty works during times of famine. This is a modern day famine and an opportunity for you to put a demand on your faith and watch God show up and show out.
