Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 2 April 2025 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche: A Lifestyle of Financial Accountability
TOPIC: A Lifestyle of Financial Accountability (Seeds Of Destiny 2 April 2025)
SCRIPTURE: “Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.” Daniel 6:3-4
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Financial accountability is a non-negotiable requirement for anyone who desires to be a beneficiary of God’s blessing and abundance.
MESSAGE:
Financial accountability is an essential aspect of uprightness. It is a vital key to accessing the Blessing of God. This was evident in the life of Joseph.
Genesis 39:5-6 says: And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field. And he left all that he had in Joseph’s hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favoured.
Joseph’s financial integrity and accountability brought blessings not just to him but also to the house of his master, the Egyptian. Everything entrusted to Joseph’s care prospered.
Similarly, Daniel was another person in Scripture who exemplified such dimension of financial integrity and accountability.
Daniel 6:2-4 says: And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage. Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.
Daniel’s life was marked by such a level of accountability that nothing was ever missing under his watch. That was a lifestyle of financial responsibility—accountability down to the very last detail.
In contrast, financial recklessness has destroyed many lives, businesses, and organizations. For example, some years ago, a wave of corporate frauds swept through the United States of America and led to the collapse of business, arrests of people, and loss of livelihoods for innumerable people. This culminated in ripple effects around the globe. It was collectively termed global financial meltdown. And the cause of that global financial crisis was that those entrusted with financial resources were dishonest, manipulating financial figures and declaring profits that never existed.
While lies may appear to prevail for a time, the truth will always triumph in the end. Financial accountability is a non-negotiable requirement for anyone who desires to be a beneficiary of God’s blessing and abundance.
Remember this: Financial accountability is a non-negotiable requirement for anyone who desires to be a beneficiary of God’s blessing and abundance.
