The Devil’s Debt Trap

Delivering Dunamis

Are you feeling trapped under the weight of heavy debt burdens? If so, I can relate. I have lived it on an extreme level. In this episode I step into some next level vulnerability, sharing the story of the debt foundation that I established just months after my college graduation. It was a hole that I exacerbated in a radical way through a destructive gambling addiction that I enabled in my efforts to secure additional income to overcome the hole that I found myself in early in my adult life. I made some extraordinarily reckless decisions. And those decisions led to great shame, guilt and further captivity. The devil loved the debt trap that he positioned to take hold of my life. He had me completely ensnared. I was consumed by it. I felt hopeless. When we assume a heavy debt burden, the devil assumes power. Debt can rob us of a lot of focus and time. It can distract us from our purpose. And steer us away from the freedom that we have in Christ. Debt is divisive. It ruins relationships and leads to further emotional torment. It is an ugly weapon of Satan. And it needs to be exposed. Praise the Lord for God’s intervention in my life. I fell into the trap and I needed a rescue effort. Please be cautious. You are called to live in freedom. Avoid the pitfalls of debt that I encountered by listening to this message and learning from my experience.
