Many individuals fall into debt by chasing after perceived "once in a lifetime" opportunities, often spending money they do not possess. This tendency can lead to significant financial struggles, as people overlook the importance of being cautious with their finances. It’s vital to recognize that not every enticing offer aligns with God's intentions for our resources.

Practicing self-control involves resisting the urge to seize every attractive deal, as often there are greater plans God has for our money. By prioritizing wisdom and discernment, we can make choices that reflect God’s guidance rather than succumb to fleeting opportunities that may not serve our best interests.
