Matthew 6:24
English Standard Version (ESV)
24 “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
In the last episode of Potencial Millonario, I talked to you about the strange taboo that exists about money- in that money is a topic that many people will avoid discussing until they are really in trouble with it. Most financial problems could be solved early on with appropriate planning and budgeting, but because of the money taboo, many people will not ask for advice and will make dangerous decisions, such as taking out title loans, skipping payments, or hiding the problem from their family. It is often only when a person becomes desperate that they will finally ask for help, and usually I find that most of the problems could have been avoided if they had asked sooner. These financial problems can bring ruin to a marriage and destroy a family, causing people to lie to each other, hide the issues, and bring huge amounts of stress onto relationships. Debt is a terrible master, and serving debt is like signing yourself over to servitude. So I ask you, is money the problem, or is it the fact that people won’t talk about money, and therefore don’t understand money, that is the problem? Friends, that is exactly why I began this radio program and website, this is why I wrote the book Potencial Millonario: to help you understand your money and make it work for you!
In Matthew 6:24, it states, “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.” Let me make something clear: Money is not your master. When you take my advice or follow my golden rules, or when you decide that you want to be financially free, or that you want to start saving money, or that you want to become wealthy, you are NOT serving your money. You are NOT making money your master.
On the contrary, when you decide to have a responsible lifestyle in which you have a budget, an emergency fund, a savings account, when you save for what you want to buy instead of using credit, when you discuss money with your family and involve them in this process, when you do these things you are NOT serving money. You are making your money serve you. You are making your money work for you. You are being a good steward of God’s bountiful gifts, you are taking the opportunities the God sets before you. You are following God’s word as written in the over 100 verses in the Bible that deal with money. So, my friends, when you are financially free you can serve God.
If you are in terrible financial trouble, if you are worrying day in and day out, if you are lying to your family, if you feel guilty because you cannot get a handle on these things- you need to ask yourself if you are serving money or serving God. Is there time in your day, amidst your money worries and stress, to give time, thanks, and devotion to God? Or do you instead find your discussion with God always starts with, “Why me?” Friends, as Matthew 6:24 states, “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.” Be the boss of your money, make your money work for you, so that you can do God’s work. You will love the financial freedom, you will love the relaxation that comes from knowing that you have control of your money. This will free you to do the wonderful things that you are capable of with your God-given gifts and talents.

1 Corinthians 16:2 ESV / 18 helpful votes
On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting when I come.
The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
In the last episode of Potential Millionaire, I not only discussed the importance of saving money, but also exactly how much money to save and where to save it. Let’s be certain to understand that we save money not to hoard it or lord it over others, but actually to act as good stewards and thankful recipients of God’s bounty. There are a number of Biblical Scripture passages that support my point. First, let’s take 1 Corinthians 16:2, which states that “On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting when I come.” 1 Corinthians is advocating exactly what I discussed last week- that we must diligently set aside money to save each and every time we have income. No matter the size of the amount saved- it is the action of retaining that piece of our income before we do our spending that really allows us to accumulate wealth. The Bible instructs us to live by conserving what we have, not only in times of distress, but every day. When we save daily and weekly, we grow our savings so that in our times of need we can rely on ourselves. We can help ourselves because we have an emergency fund, and we can enjoy life to a fuller extent because we can save for our goals and attain them. Would you like to go on vacation? Buy a new car? A television? These are things that can be saved for too- so that when the day comes that we have enough, we can proudly purchase these items using God’s bounty- and not the credit of a lender.
2 Corinthians has more to instruct us with about saving. 2 Corinthians 9:6 states, “The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.” 
The Bible is telling us that we must make a conscious effort to care for, save, and then yes, use, God’s bountiful gifts. But only those who put in the time and effort will see the fruit of their labors. There is no get rich quick scheme that is sustaining- there is no magic pill for success. Friends, what I am advocating is nothing more than good, honest work both outside and inside your household. It takes work to make a budget and follow it. It takes work to work to save money. It takes effort and discipline to do these things. Yes, everyone has millionaire potential, and the Bible provides us with the directions on how to achieve it: Carefully saving, diligently working, and gratefully watching over our households and money. These are the keys for unlocking our millionaire potential.

2 Corinthians 13:5
New International Version (NIV)
5 Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?
But the sovereign Lord helps me, so I am not humiliated. For that reason I am steadfastly resolved; I know I will not be put to shame.
In the last episode, I talked about the topic of new years resolutions, and we discussed how important it is to include your finances in your resolutions. However, most people break their resolutions within a few weeks, and often resolutions are forgotten quickly. It is very important to make resolutions that are realistic, manageable, and that you are committed to. I have a number of golden rules that I talk about, and that you will find in my book, Potencial Millonario. These would make wonderful resolutions for the New Year. For example, I recommend that you make a family budget, and know exactly how much money you make and spend. I recommend that you have an emergency fund, so that you are prepared for life’s unexpected disasters. I recommend that you save money, and that you pay yourself first. I recommend that you are honest with your family about money, and that you approach money matters together as a team. But what good are all these resolutions, if you are not totally committed to making them happen? What good are they, if you aren’t willing to make the sacrifices required to succeed? We all have millionaire potential, but do we all have the courage and discipline to be millionaires?
I really believe that each of us has millionaire potential, and that each of has the same opportunity to follow these golden rules and succeed at becoming financially free. Will it be easy? No. Will it happen overnight? No. Will it be worth it? Absolutely.
Let’s take some inspiring words from the Bible to help us have the courage to make good financial decisions in this New Year, and to have the resolve to keep our resolutions and to remain on the road to financial freedom. 2 Corinthians 13:5 says, “Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. 
Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?” Friends, these plans that we make about the New Year are tests. They are tests of our discipline, our resolve, our courage. We must look inward, we must look at ourselves and decide if we can pass the test. When you are tempted to spend money you don’t have, when you are tempted to argue about money, when you are tempted to despair- think about whether or not you are in the faith- and find strength in the fact that we can take strength from Jesus. Lean on Him- rest on Him- and keep strong in your resolutions. Make them last the whole year, make good habits for yourselves about your money. Recognize that millionaire potential that is within you, and be willing to commit to it.
Isaiah 50:7 states, “But the sovereign LORD helps me, so I am not humiliated. For that reason I am steadfastly resolved; I know I will not be put to shame.” As you commit yourselves to your budget, your savings, your emergency fund, your good spending habits, know that you are not alone. Know that if you persevere, you will not be humiliated, but instead you will be uplifted. I know that for some of you, the road to financial freedom will be a tough one- but you must believe that you can do this. No matter what difficulties you have been through, no matter what troubles you will go through, if you persevere and have courage and discipline, you will triumph in the end.

Last week’s episode was a special one, as we prepared to celebrate Christmas Day. I hope that all my listeners and readers had a wonderful Christmas with their families. In the last episode, I discussed the real reason to celebrate at Christmas, which is the birth of Jesus. I also talked about the origin of the Christmas tradition of gift giving, which probably started in the fourth century with the generosity of Saint Nicholas. I also talked about carefully choosing gifts- to find gifts that are truly meaningful, to give at Christmas. Remember, as we think about these things, we must always keep in mind that God and family are the most important things in our lives. I encouraged you to take time with your families to start new Christmas traditions- to get away from the ‘normal’ commercialized spending spree that Christmas has become, and to focus on meaningful, lasting gifts. Sometimes these gifts are hand-made, or sometimes they are acts of love, or giving of one’s time to another. Imagine the good that spending 30 extra minutes playing with your kids each day could do in their lives- what a lasting effect that would have- far outlasting the brief joy that a toy or game would bring. Its hard to have the courage to try these new ideas- just like its hard to make and keep a budget, or hard to save for an emergency when we have expenses today. But friends, whoever said that doing the right thing would be easy?
This week marks another important Christian holiday. The twelve days after Christmas are a time called Christmastide. Christmastide ends with the Epiphany, which many call Three Kings Day. Epiphany is a Greek word that means ‘to show, or to reveal’. The Epiphany was first celebrated in the fourth century, and originally was a celebration of four important events: the baptism of Jesus, the first miracle of Jesus, (which was changing water to wine at the wedding at Cana), the Nativity of Christ, and the visitation of the three wise men. These four events were celebrated together, because they were each a time when Jesus was revealed to the world. Over time, the events began to be celebrated separately, and now we think of the Epiphany as a remembrance of the long journey of the three Magi, as they followed the star to Bethlehem and worshipped Jesus. In many cultures, gifts are given on the Epiphany, to commemorate the gifts that the three wise men brought to Jesus.
As we continue to celebrate Christmas and look forward to the Epiphany, let’s remember that this is a time when we should focus on what we need to show others or reveal in our lives. In terms of your personal finances, this would be a great time to discuss where you are at with your family, so that you can begin the New Year together with a plan to improve your situation. It may be a difficult conversation, but revealing the truth will in the end allow you and your family to make progress. It is also a time to be honest with yourself, to show yourself that you have the courage to take control of your financial situation. Reveal to yourself how you are spending your money, find your weaknesses, and be determined to get control of your finances. Create a budget, stop wasting money, begin a savings account, and pay off your debts. These are steps that I can help you with, with this radio program, my book, and my website potencialmillonario.com. Let yourself have a personal finance epiphany- and begin your journey to financial freedom. Allow this season of joy and celebration encourage you to have the courage to do the tough things- knowing that they are the right things to do. Let the promise of financial freedom, the relief of having no more debt, the security of having savings, the freedom of having your own money to spend- let these things be your guiding star that lights your way throughout the New Year. Friends, just like the journey of the Three Kings was difficult, your journey may be difficult as well. But the Three Kings persisted, they carried on, and they accomplished their mission of revealing baby Jesus to the world. And they didn’t do this alone- they had the guidance of the Christmas star sent by God. You too, have guidance, and you too, have God. I hope you will take this opportunity to set off on a journey to reveal your millionaire potential.
