The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender. (Proverbs 22:7 NKJV)
Poverty and indebtedness robs a person of true freedom. You can be free legislatively, you can even be free spiritually, but if you are poor and in debt you still won't have total freedom. You will still be subject to the creditor, you will still be a servant or slave to the lender. Even though slavery has been long abolished, if you are in debt you are still in bondage.Therefore, you have to undertake a journey towards freedom, financial freedom. You have to break the bondage that poverty bring upon you.
