How to (actually) Trust God with your Finances and Stop Worrying | Melody Alisa

[@MelodyAlisa]

hey, sis. it's testimony time. today's question: what is one way (big or small) that the Lord has provided for you?! for me: like I mentioned, working for myself over the years has put me in positions that reminded me who my true Provider is -- the Lord!! Back in 2017 and 2018, I worked online as an English teacher teaching Chinese students and I would get bonuses when people used my link to sign up to be a teacher on the platform as well. I remember so many instances where these "bonuses" came through unexpectedly but RIGHT ON TIME to meet bill due dates and other random expenses that would pop up. it was during this time that I also began tithing & without a doubt, that helped me see God's provision in this way even clearer. He is good and He is faithful.

I am looking to move my family out of a not so good situation. I currently work for an apartment community part time. As a full time employee I would get the benefit of discounted rent. I was offered the discount as a part time employee and then a week later offered a full time role with the company. I was able to find a really nice apartment and I am planning on moving next month 😁

In my 20's I can never forget that my baby daughter was on her last diaper and my payday was 4 days away. I didn't know what to do BUT GOD....I went out to my mailbox and my grandmother had sent me a card saying Thinking Of You enclosed was more than enough for my daughter's diapers plus more. GOD always shows up when you need him most. Always remember he is FAITHFUL AND A MAN OF HIS WORD, HE CAN'T FAIL......

[@thandekaradebe19]

I can really attest to not having diapers . I’m a mother to a 2 year old . I’ve had days that she didn’t have diapers and I’d cry buying singles every day for like a week . I’m so happy she’s getting the hang of potty training so that I don’t stress about them anymore . It’s so hard when you can’t provide for your child but I trust God with everything.

About 10 years ago, my husband had called me to tell me that he felt like God was telling him to buy a car battery for his brothers neighbor. I didn’t argue or question it because if he felt like it was coming from God, he needed to do it. Later I checked the mail and received a letter from our tribal home division. We live in a tribal home and our house payment was based on our income. Later that evening when he got home I told him about the letter. He began laughing, then he showing me the receipt for the battery. Our house payment had decreased. The decrease was the exact amount of the cost of the battery, to the penny. God will truly bless our finances and provide for us if we trust Him with them. ❤❤❤

I came back to leave my comment. God stepped in this month and provided for my rent 🙌🏽 I was literally between a rock and the deep blue sea and an unexpected source came through for me. God uses people to provide. We often think that manna is going to fall from heaven and bless us. No. We as His children are called to be His hands and feet. If someone has a need and we can meet it, we should. Because our blessing is right behind it! And blessing doesn’t always mean money. I always say that God’s favor is better than money! He can cancel debt. He can provide unexpected groceries. He can allow the person on the drive thru to pay for our food. The Lord is amazing and He truly is ALL that we need. Consider the lilies of the field and the birds. 🙌🏽 Have you ever seen a stressed out bird? 😂 timely message sis. Thank you!

In February of this year, I moved into my business space. I had no way of paying my booth rent, and I was in need of some supplies.

Whenever I got to church that night for Bible study, someone had anonymously left me a $1000 check for my business. They asked the pastor to give it to me and in the memo it read “God Bless your new Business.” I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Bless the Lord 💖

I remained hopeful and was determined to work and apply to scholarships. After months of waiting, I got a letter in the mail for a scholarship that would pay for the degree in full!

First, this is powerful video on finances. Secondly, I was to share how I trust God with my finances each month. I have a composition notebook where I list ALL by bills for each month. The very first thing that I write at the top of each page is a prayer. I begin by thanking God for the money he has provided for my bills to be paid. Next, I thank Him that All bills will be paid timely, that I will not be in lack or need and that I will not have to borrow or beg anyone. Finally, I end with thanking Him for being my Lord and Savior in Jesus Name. I skip a line and the first thing I write is "Tithing" followed with other bills to be paid. I can truly testify that this has worked for me and God has provided abundantly and above my expectation each month. It WORKS! I hope it will bless someone else to give it a try. In the Name of Jesus I pray! Amen!

So walking in faith I asked my parents for help and they paid for me and my 3 children to go home for Christmas.

I’ve had vehicles in the past and something has always happened, and I’ve been left scrambling to try to make it work, but I’ve had my SUV for a few years now and by the grace of God, I’ve been able to keep it on the road and keep it going! Being mobile has provided me with the ability to travel, go places for self-care, take my child back and forth to school or practices or anything like that, and provided my husband and I a well running vehicle when his broke. It may sound superficial to some, but having a well-maintained and well reliable vehicle is such a blessing that I used to overlook. But after washing this video, my eyes have been open to the glory that has been bestowed upon me.!!!! Thank you God!

This was amazing! I lost a job and god blessed me with a better, higher paying job where I can now work from home and I have more time to spend with him

[@swhitzle]

My husband lost his job shortly after I left a higher paying job for something that gave me less anxiety taking a huge pay cut. With 2 incomes we were barely making ends meet. God has kept my rent paid this last 3 months, every bill has been paid, there has not been a day I didn’t have food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with gas in my car. All of a sudden my one income can supply a home that 2 couldn’t before. All I can say is to God be the glory! ❤

[@AlishaSwann]

Thank you so much for letting God use you. I literally just finished reviewing my budget. Within my budget spreadsheet, I created a sample mortgage plan to see how much I could afford for a monthly mortgage payment along with all of my other bills on a teacher's salary. I wasn't necessarily discouraged, but I had to keep reminding myself that all things are possible with God. Your video came at the right time.

[@Ledamarie]

I don’t think you understand how timely this is‼️‼️I was having a full fledged attack about this. I mean straight panicking. Thanks for this chica🫶🏽🫂

[@MelodyAlisa]

you're so welcome sis!! God's timing >> !!

Whenever I have found myself in dry spouts even like the current season I'm in, God always comes through. He always provides and everything I have is because of him and I am so grateful to God for this

[@sheilarichard4610]

God has provided for me in so many ways. I could write a book and probably will write a book. He provided for me when I quit smoking (spiritually). He took the desire away literally it’s been 10 years since I smoked. I had tried many times before and failed but when I did it for Him because I knew the Holy Spirit resides in me I wanted to quit because I didn’t want to continue to harm my body with my body being his temple. Now…He’s helping me to lose the weight I gained. I’ve lost 25 pounds so far and he’s provided in so many other ways. God is always faithful and never failing. We serve an Awesome God. I can’t imagine my life without him. I owe him everything within me to be obedient to him and this is how I can honor Him to the fullest. God Never Failed Me and my Faith grows because of it. Thank you Lord for your patience and unconditional love. ♥️🙌🏽🙏🏽

[@tundun8365]

God has provided for me in so many ways. Few years ago, God provided me with a job that I left abruptly and with to work for another company because of the increase in pay. Well, 6 weeks into my new job I was told the company don't have funding for my position and I have 2 weeks to look for another position. I was devastated. I had a dream that my previous manager from the company that I left abruptly reached out to me to offer me my position. I thought to myself that will never happen. Well, approximately 7-8weeks my old manager reached out to me and offered me back my position. Am learning to be obedient to God and to put my complete trust in God. Your video is right on time because am also working through reflecting on the goodness and faithfulness of God. God never fails and I keep reminding myself that God's words do not return void.

[@jadiew4840]

A few months ago I was faced with a pending debt, but I spent the following months praying boldy about God having the final say! Recently, God used a family member to pay off my debt & he also showed mercy through the person who reported the debt to me. HALLELUJAH!!!

[@takiam6677]

Thank you Lord for your word and the disciple who gave it to us. This hit me so hard. I’ve been stressing about money for a few weeks now. But when you said to write reminders of Gods Provision, I remembered all of the ways he has came through. Just today I didn’t want to spend the money to get some lunch but a medical representative came in with free lunch. Thank you Lord!

[@preciousviolet2813]

That's God providing for you right there. He's an online e God!!

I got into a motorcycle accident in 2020. Lost my business due to COVID but came out that year with a settlement for $170k

[@TruthWillprevail13]

[@preciousviolet2813]

A well needed message. Out of a job for almost 2 months now due to me relocating to another state due to my brother's illness. I really thought it would be a smooth transition since I'm in Healthcare, but Texas has so many rules and I'm being forced to do over a course that will cost me money that I don't have. Thank God for my sister putting me up while my stuff are in storage, my faith in Christ is what's keeping me and where He's brought me from before.

[@molinajoseph7315]

We serve a faithful God. Malachi 3:10,11- he says bring me all the tithe into the store house, he even said he will rebuke the devour. When you are faithful to God, he will be faithful to you. Powerful topic sis. God bless you. Prayers lifted always. 🙏🙏🙏

[@ritagilmer5389]

God has provided financially, though I’m being challenged in that area now 😢; He’s come through for me medically as well, traveling mercies…every time I arrive home no matter the time, I say thank you God. When my car stopped on me at the intersection, He sent a young man to push my car to a safe location. This was during the time I was waiting on a tow truck and the temps were in the upper 80s. I’m thankful for so many things. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@lakeshathompson4399]

Thank you so much for this video! I’ve switched positions within my current organization. As a result, it caused my contract to end a little over a month before I start my new position and a break in pay. This has been on me heavy wondering what I’m going to do, because I have a 6 year old. Your video is a reminder to trust in the Lord, because He can and will provide. He did just that for me at the end of May. I needed to pay the remainder of my daughter’s camp along with other things. I received a message from a family member three days before payment was due saying she’d pay the full balance. If God did it then, He can do it now.

[@portiac2930]

Perfect timing.. Jehovah Jireah opened a door for me and Blessed me with a Good paying job when I needed it so desperately, I'm Trusting Him to open the way to help me get in my own home... I know that He's more than Able I can't count the times he's brought me through Situations... Be Encouraged Sis, Gents God NEVER FAILS.

[@lauraramosdelgado]

The Lord is good. His faithfulness endures forever. God led me and my husband to move to the US and in less than 4 months He did not only provide a job, a realtor, a house, the means, etc… He also gave me a Church family and a community. 🙌 Trust Jesus as your good shepherd. With Him, You will lack nothing. ❤

[@coachyolee8576]

This video was right on time for sure! God miraculously sustained me thru a Job loss. There were no meals or bills missed! God is truly faithful! #jehovahjireh

[@Bossmomtales]

2 years ago my husband lost his job making me the sole provider. I don’t make 6 figures and I’m not the wealthiest so being the head of household was stressful because I really didn’t make enough to pay all the bills on my own . However…God never failed us. Because of God rent was always paid, bills were paid, we had groceries, we never needed for anything and for this I give him the upmost praise!

[@brittanymonae3048]

When my brothers and I were younger ( eldest brother was 7 , middle child 6, I was 5) we were traveling back home to Philly from South Carolina with our parents and older cousin. We were in a van and got into a fatal accident. I lost both parents and my older cousin. My brothers and I survived. God has provided for me in more ways than 1. I lack nothing. Even when I felt like I’ve lost everything , God has given everything I needed and more. He truly is a faithful father ❤

[@tfluvssoaps]

I am an unpaid caregiver and finances have been stressing me out. However the Lord has provided. My mom died and came back. She is still recovering but she isn't like she was when she first went into ICU. The Lord has been purring it in my heart to trust Him in all aspects of my life and pray to Him for my needs. Thanks for the timely video.

[@faithimani870]

This seemingly little moment has marked me to show how God is faithful to his children! I felt like the children of Israel and God providing manna and quail in the wilderness. I was in the grocery store after attending church and doing my usual rounds. I had just started my new job and was getting used to setting a budget for groceries. I then saw my pastor and his children getting groceries in the store. We passed each other briefly and then kept going. I was in line and as they were ringing up my grocieres I began to get nervous about how I would pay for it. My account was low, but I needed the groceries so I continued. As I was about to pay for the groceries, my pastor returned to the store! He had already left the store with his children at this point, but he came back into, paid for my groceries, and left! That moment has marked me in more ways than one and reminded me of just how much the Lord loves me and will make sure that he takes care of his children when they are in need.

[@candaceurquhart]

One of my testimonies where God has provided for me is paying up my rent and bills for about a month and a half out of nowhere. I lost my job back in January. I worked in the security industry installing alarm systems and cameras, etc so I was the bread winner (not bragging).. long story short I went into a job interview and didn't get the position I applied for but another. They owner of the company told me to come back the next day to start work and so when I did, the owner didn't realize that the other position that he offered me had been filled the day before and so he wrote me out a check of $3200 to get my bills caught up.... Now I'm like 5 months behind on rent 😂 but I'm not worried about it because I know God does things in mysterious ways! Thank you Father for always being faithful!!

[@niyaj]

God has placed this video in front of me for a reason I have been battling so many financial problems and I will not stress I will not worry I leave it in God's hands but it has really been hard and a challenge but he has been showing up for me day by day and I know my father Jesus christ is not done yet thank you Melody for these wonderful encouragement videos because I needed to heart it God bless your soul ❤

[@kgothatsomosweu7358]

last year i needed an ushering shirt and that time things were bad. I remember just asking God to provide. this year at the beginning of the year, i had the money to be able to by the shirt and I heard Him say "No, don't buy it". I was confused but obeyed. About a month later, a lady from church said to me, "while I was in prayer, I was led to buy the ushering shirt for you"🤯🤯🤯. the Lord is good and His love endures forever

[@Jennifercita]

I like to use a prayer journal most of the times and I've been using to intentionally document my spiritual journey and blessings. We can forget how He's rescued us from situations. I will never forget the blessing I received March 2023 where He blessed me with a gift. I was coming out of work and I had seen an envelope on my dashboard. There was no letter but I opened it to find $400!

[@fefemyluv]

This is right on time, Melody. I’ve never really dealt with financial issues until recently. But some of your points kept popping into my head. I think Matthew 6:33 is so powerful and one of my favorite Bible verses for very good reason. It’s a constant reminder that God is our ultimate supplier if we just seek Him, genuinely and diligently. God has kept me with a roof over my head for 31 years. That, alone, is enough to make me not stress myself out about bills. I trust that He will keep me. I love Him so, so much. Great video as usual, Melody. ❤

[@iamtiaraaa]

I was jobless for a year. I found a job that I was scared to take & now I’ve gotten promoted twice & now I am making more to provide for me & my daughter.

[@weirdmyst7963]

God is good. I needed a job before college and ended up finding one and saving $1000 to stretch for 5 months. After that, the next summer I needed a job bad, looking daily. Applying to ghost job after ghost job but he came through with an amazing lady, sick, and needed a sitter. I was paid $150 weekly and managed to go into the next year with $500 saved and then got a job on campus where I got paid $700 monthly. Praise God! I saved 2k in months! It was the most money I ever had

[@biancalastarr]

I am a balloon artist and I needed some floor lamps to create my balloon pieces. I was not working at this time so I really couldn’t afford to buy both lamps at full price(they usually ran between 10-$15) so I just prayed for God to provide them. One day I’m at a thrift store and I find a single floor lamp still in the box for 4.99🙌🏾but I still needed another one. A few days later go to Walmart to just pay full price for the other lamp b/c I knew it was there…but nope that was not Gods plan! I found like 6-8 floor lamps on a random aisle in the back of the store that rang up to 3.99!l!! I only brought one but I told my mom about it. She later goes back and buys all the lamps, and a few months later I actually have to use those lamps for an event I was hired to do!🙌🏾

[@Diashalinn]

I really enjoy actively remembering God blessings. Last year I was struggling financially and I was so stressed. But God came on time and turned it around. 🎉he is a Great father and HE showed up in a way, that I knew it was God ❤I’m so grateful to be reminded to recognize God as my source. And not my self. He is able and I trust him.

[@MarrianeFrancisco]

In our family, my dad is the breadwinner, and with me being a college student, the burden of my expensive tuition falls entirely on his shoulders. Lately, we’ve been facing tough financial struggles. As a family, we did our best to save, my parents have been skipping meals and we pray every day about our situation. Despite our prayers for a change, it seems like God cannot hear us. My dad decided to take out a loan, something we all dread but feel there’s no other option as bills keep piling up. Yet, my parents have unwavering faith in God. Even in these challenging times, they refuse to complain or turn away from God. But I don't understand why God does this.

[@chadhudson4083]

God gave me a job opportunity that moved me closer to home. Now I get to do what I love but I’m also closer to family. This came after struggling financially and being kicked out of my apartment at one point. I’m really grateful for his grace

[@mariavigo2143]

Good morning God has provided for me when I was about to get my lights turned off. I needed an extension on paying my light bill until payday which was two weeks away. My Father up above provided. Hallelujah, I praise you Lord! My king of all kings!!!!!!

[@vsprsgdby]

Wow. What a timely video. These last few days I’ve cried my eyes raw because my account is over drawn, I don’t have a job, and I have bills to pay. I’ve been stressed about how I’m going to get the funds to get my account okay again and I’ve been praying about it hard. Thank you for this.
