USE COMMON SENSE : Someone might say, "Thank God, I going to confess that I don't have any debts," when in fact, they old everybody in the country. There are many people who are hung up on this scripture in (Romans 13:8). "Owe no man anything, but to love one another.... They say, "Glory to God, that's what I'm going to do. I am going to owe no man anything." If they get behind on their bills, they won't borrow money to meet their obligations. They lose their credit and get kicked out of their apartment. In fact, doing this pandemic of Coronsvirus disease, many people are in panic mode with unemployment up to 14% many families including Christians try to figure out how they're going to pay their bills and feed their families. When, the Bible says "man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." My God according to that which is written, shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." If you are trusting God, based on what he had said, then you all on the the protection of the Almighty he has set his angels charge over you to keep you in all your ways." However, if you are in doubt, and operating in unbelief. Then you need to find someone that operates in faith and not fear or unbelief. That is not a very good testimony. They are confessing. "My God meets my needs according to his riches in glory." The other people all wondering and worrying about their jobs about their families and even their money. Who is his or her God who can't meet his or her needs ?" You can't be debt-free and old everybody at the same time. You have to start where you are. Many are saying they trusting God when in fact they are trusting their ability to provide for their families and themselves. What I'm saying is that you cannot operate in that until you get out of debt. Don't get into bondage over that Scripture. God told Israel in (Deuteronomy 15:6), ... "Thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shall not borrow... If it were wrong to borrow money, it would be wrong to lend money. For they wouldn't have borrowed if there had not been someone to lend it. If God has told you not to borrow money, then it would be wrong for you to do it. But don't get into bondage over that one verse of Scripture. Quite frankly, this scripture in Romans (13:8) is talking about paying your taxes. "For this cause paid ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continuously onto this very thing. Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor. Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another had to fill the law." (Romans 13:6--8). In other words, if someone is worthy of honor, give it to them. Give tribute and custom--- don't withhold it. In other words, pay your income tax. But what if someone said, "I don't have any debts. Glory to God, I don't have any debts. I confessing that every meal is paid. I don't have any debts," when, in fact, they owe men people ! They are denying what exists. That is not God's method. God's method is to call for the thing that is not manifested. Even if they could eliminate the debt by denying its existence, they might starve to death. Most people who stall to death don't owe anybody anything. So just being out of debt is not the answer. What is the answer ? God's method is to call the thing that is not manifest. The thing that is not manifested in that individuals life is an abundant supply. And many people, thank that if they had an abundance in money, it will solve their problems. No no no it is not the answer.
