"Six days thou shalt labor" Exodus 34:21
II - Economic Inferiority - a feeling of instant subordination by the poor to the rich or by the poorer to the less poor.
Causes of Economic inferiority are:
1. By depending on the Person's Gifts or Help and
2. Misguided Values
Solutions of Economic Inferiority are:
1. Don't Be Dependent, Work With Dignity - Work with your own hands within 6 days. "6 days thou shalt labor" (Exodus 34:21). No Work No Eat. "That if any would not work, neither should he eat" (2 Thessalonians 3:10). There is always a time for leisure and laziness.
2. Be Contented and Happy With What You Have - Realize that you really don't need much. "But Godliness with contentment is great gain" (1 Timothy 6:6). Sleep in simple bed, take a bath in simple bathroom, eat simple foods. Bear in mind that "all of these will pass away too."
3. Don't Treat Poverty As A Reason For Inferiority - "A dry crust eaten in piece is better than steak every day with argument" (Proverbs 17:1).
III - Mental Inferiority - is caused by actual mental deficiency or handicap like over dose of drug resulting to memory loss, malnutrition and conditioned brain.
Solutions for Mental Inferiority are:
1. "If any of you lack wisdom, let Him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; it shall be given him. " (James 1:15).
2. Nothing is impossible when you trust God because God is a God of impossibility. God is not interested in our ability but in our availability.
