"HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR MONEY"
I Chronicles 29:10
So David blessed the Lord in the sight of all the
assembly, and David said, 'Blessed art Thou, 0
Lord God of Israel, Our Father forever and ever.
Notice this:
Thine, 0 Lord, are the greatness and the power and
the victory and the majesty; in Thee everything
that is in the heavens and the earth, Thine is the

Thy glorious Name. But who am I, and who are our

that 23 percent must continue working, and 75 percent must depend on
friends, charity and relatives.
Why do so many people fail financially? I'm going to list some

5. Buying the wrong kind of life insurance.
6. Failure to develop a winning mental attitude about
money.
T. tne failure to understand and a-ply basic Bible
principles in acquiring, possessing and using money.
