How to Turn Liabilities into Assets

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

A liability can become an asset if you know what to do. A liability is something written off as having no value because it cannot generate any value. Cars and electronics that have outlived their usefulness become liabilities if you do not discard them to get new ones. This is because the cost of servicing them can actually procure new ones.

Sarah had passed the age of childbearing and was written off as barren. She had also concluded that it was impossible for her to bear children so she gave her Egyptian maid to her husband Abraham to raise children for her. But unknown to Sarah, God had a better, best plan for her as He Who created her knew how best to rejuvenate her supposedly dead womb (Romans Chapter 4 verses 17 to 21, Genesis Chapter 17 verses 15 to 19, 18 verses 10 to 15 and 21 verses 1 to 3). In the fullness of God’s timing for her life, she became a mother.

Elizabeth was also written off as barren but in the fullness of God’s timing and plans for her life, John the Baptist was born at an age when it was impossible for Elizabeth to bear children.

Beloved, God is still in the business of turning liabilities into assets and who knows, you might just be the next candidate to experience such a miracle from Him. Therefore, explore the possibility of making whatever you consider a liability or liabilities into assets with the Word of God. Please see Psalm 107 verses 35 to 38, Isaiah Chapters 41 verses 17 to 20, 61 verse 4, 55 verse 13, 58 verses 10 to 12, 35 verses 1 to 2, 6b to 8 and Amos Chapter 9 verse 14.
