If you are going to lend and not borrow then that means that you apparently have money and more than just a little bit.
For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The Lord will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withholdFrom those who walk uprightly.
(Ps. 84:11)
Today’s Confession: The Lord will withhold no good thing from him who walks uprightly. Your attitude is everything. When your attitude is right, then there is no limit to what God can do.
“And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].” (2 Cor. 9:8 AMP)
The Bible says that Abraham obtained a good report (Hebrews 11:2). He had the testimony that he pleased God. Don’t you want God to say that about you? Don’t you want to obtain a good report with God? I believe you do. I know I do. But it starts with your attitude. Your attitude is everything.
God wants you to have His best. He wants you to experience it everyday of your life, but you must first decide to pursue it. When you get your attitude right and when you begin to honor Him with your finances, then look what He says will happen:
. . .The generation of the upright shall be blessed. Wealth and riches shall be in his house. . .. (Ps. 112:2-3)
. . .the tabernacle (or house) of the upright shall flourish. (Pro. 14:11)
. . .the upright shall have good things in possession. (Prov. 28:10)
For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. (Ps. 84:11)
Those scriptures all deal with financial blessings. What does it say in Deuteronomy 28? If you will hearken unto His voice and do His commandments then He will bless you. How? In the city and in the field, going in and going out. Your children will be blessed. Everything you do will be blessed. Your storehouses will be blessed. Verse 12 says, The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow. . . He goes on to say that you will be the head and not the tail, above only and not beneath.
If you are going to lend and not borrow then that means that you apparently have money and more than just a little bit. God has blessed your finances. If He is going to command His blessing on your storehouse, then that means you will have more in your storehouses. He wants you to walk in the same financial blessings that Abraham did and more!
Let me ask you today: Do you want to receive God’s best? I believe you do. I KNOW that God wants you to have His best. Begin to HONOR God with your finances and see what will happen. Change your attitude. It’s not a debt you owe, but a seed you sow. Remember, God loves a cheerful giver.

Dr. Jerry Savelle was an average, blue-collar man who was struggling and needed God's help. While he considered himself a "nobody," when he became a believer God told him not to worry about it because He was a master at making champions out of nobodies. God has since taken Dr. Savelle from being a constant quitter to a man who knows how to stand on the Word of God until victory is experienced. Because of the life-changing combination of God's faithfulness and Dr. Savelle's "no quit" attitude, his life is totally different than it was thirty-eight years ago.
Since 1969, Dr. Savelle has been traveling the world teaching people how to win in life. Dr. Savelle has ministered in more than three thousand churches and in twenty-six nations, and has overseas offices in the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada.
God has used Dr. Savelle to impact people who are burned out on religion and who have backslidden in their walk with God, as well as Christians who have a need to hear the Word of God presented in terms applicable to their lives, dreams, and destinies. He is the host of the Jerry Savelle Ministries television broadcast which airs in two hundred countries worldwide.
Dr. Savelle is the author of more than forty books, including his bestsellers, If Satan Can�t Steal Your Joy, He Can't Keep Your Goods and You're Somebody Special to God. He and his wife Carolyn also serve as founding Pastors of Heritage of Faith Christian Center in Crowley, Texas.
