I love Michelle Singletary’s useful guide The Power to Prosper: 21 Days to Financial Freedom!

This book is great for Christians who believe they should surrender their financial security to God , as well as those who are simply looking for help in managing their finances. It is through Him you will find peace with your finances, and The Power to Prosper will show you how to do it.

In this life changing book, Singletary shows you how to fast for 21 days to cleanse yourself of bad spending habits and your desire to consume. She challenges you to not buy anything you WANT. While you can still spend money on the things you need, like food, gas, and bills, everything else is cut off.

No new threads, eating out, or credit cards. My husband was thrilled that I stopped shopping for clothes, but we won’t get into that!

While I was reading through the Power To Prosper, I found that her advice was not only filled with truth but so helpful.Although a lot of this might seem like common sense, the book will make sure you are aware of the bad habits that cripple our financial freedom.

Even after the closing to the 21 day period, I am still applying what I learned and have seen a huge change in my life.

Not only does this book help your current finance situation, but it also helps you to start saving money even for those important ” rainy day ” funds. By following Signletary’s advice, you can manage any debt that you have collected better, as well as learn how to help others who are struggling financially.

No, it won’t be easy to do, but you will learn to not want so much that you don’t need, and how to better manage what God has given you. Cash should not be a curse but rather a blessing, and The Power to Prosper: 21 Days to Financial Freedom will help you realize that.
