Sharpen Your Ax

Ecclesiastes 10:10 If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed, but skill will bring success.

In Ecclesiastes 10:10, we are presented with the wisdom of sharpening our tools. This principle can be applied to our financial lives as well. As Christians, it is crucial to seek out and implement sound financial principles to guide us in our financial pursuits. Just as a dull ax demands more strength to cut effectively, without knowledge and skill in managing our finances, we may find ourselves struggling to achieve success. However, through the act of sharpening our financial knowledge, we equip ourselves to build wealth and contribute to expanding God’s kingdom. By learning about budgeting, saving, investing, and giving, we gain the ability to make wise financial decisions that align with our values and honor God. We should embrace the call to sharpen our financial wisdom and apply it skillfully, knowing that it can bring not only personal success but also contribute to the greater work of impacting God’s kingdom on earth.
