The Consequences Of Debts
Romans 13:6-10
The Message
6-7 That’s also why you pay taxes—so that an orderly way of life can be maintained. Fulfill your obligations as a citizen. Pay your taxes, pay your bills, respect your leaders.

8-10 Don’t run up debts, except for the huge debt of love you owe each other. When you love others, you complete what the law has been after all along. The law code—don’t sleep with another person’s spouse, don’t take someone’s life, don’t take what isn’t yours, don’t always be wanting what you don’t have, and any other “don’t” you can think of—finally adds up to this: Love other people as well as you do yourself. You can’t go wrong when you love others. When you add up everything in the law code, the sum total is love.
Tough Decisions That I Have To Make
As a grown woman, I have had to make some tough decisions and though it does not necessarily feel good , I know that it is the right thing to do. In this season in my life, I have been very intentional on paying off all my debts. I feel a urgency in the spirit realm to “PAY OFF ALL YOUR DEBTS”. Now this is not a easy thing to do, however I believe that it is absolutely necessary.
Though I have opportunities to purchase, I feel God leading me to be wise. Suffering does not always feel good. When you have money to buy a $400 pair of shoes, but the Holy Spirit is leading you to pay a $400 payment on a debt, that wise decision is to pay that debt off.
Wage Garnishments Are Real
Now is the time to make responsible decisions with your money and paying off your debts. You see that Tariff’s have cause prices to skyrocket. As black women sometimes you can become to dependent on handouts, and you have to know that the handouts are for a season but they will dry up. That is already written in scripture. Now is not the time to go on expensive vacations, but now is the time to pay the debts off.
You have to know that every new President that comes, controls the temperature of the economic systems when they walk into presidency. There is a president coming that is going to be very strict on debts and repayments. A lot of people (older blacks) are going to be homeless when that president comes because of debts. Pay your debts off NOW, while you can afford it. It is better to do it now, rather than suffer later.
One of the reasons I left the black church is their irresponsible teachings on credit scores and debt repayments. Blacks really must stop the, “Don’t have the best credit” testimony. Instead, blacks should make responsible decisions to pay the debt off NOW, so that you can be able to afford something nice later. A garnishment comes out of nowhere. So, if you get garnished and can’t pay rent, then now you are evicted because of a garnishment. I say that because you must make better decisions regarding this thing called life and your finances before something terrible starts happening because of your debts.
