The TRUTH About Section 8 - A Perspective From A Believer - (Part 2)

In Part 1 of The Truth About Section 8, (a housing voucher program intended to assist low income earners), revelation was uncovered that exposed some of the the dangers from long term usage. This is part 2 of 3.

Many will disagree with this truth and attempt to back it up with assailing justifications in support of defending some of the users of the vouchers Excuses and concluding arguments do not nullify the debilitating harm done from the repetitive usage of this habit. GOD did not intend for man to be dependent upon the government. HE made him to be a productive contributor! There has to be a better way - and there is!

The faithful wounds of a friend who tell the truth are very uncomfortable and at times, painful, but it's the TRUTH that will cause one to be released from a lifelong formidable habit. The "truth" is that GOD, being a jealous GOD, abhors His people being in dependence upon a system founded upon the "prince" of this world!! It disgusts HIM to see HIS people behaving in idolatrous ways, such as feeding upon the crumbs of a "SECTION" when HE HIMSELF is the "WHOLE"!

In every generation and in every season there has been a time to lose and a time to gain. Allowing the government to come to the rescue with a band-aid will thwart the purposes of destinies and tie the very hand of GOD HIMSELF, who is strong, able, capable, willing, AND mighty!! HE NEVER fails! In a time such as this, GOD wants HIS people to look to HIM! HE always was and is yet in control! What will happen when this system fails? WHEN will we start to completely TRUST God?? When HE comes, will HE find any faith here? Are you one of the "JUST"??

Believers in GOD need to get off this hindering program. There are untapped creative channels resident in the people of GOD that will remain blocked as long as they allow this unclean stronghold to govern them! GOD-given Gifts (which have been neglected) will make room for the believer and place them before great men once they let go! The whole world has been seeking answers and solutions. Some of these answers have been lying dormant... stifled, hidden, and subdued under these bureaucratic government subsidies. If you are a child of GOD sipping on that tainted teat, ducking your purpose and these words are speaking to you.... RUN - DON'T WALK - GET OFF!

How does one get off? Solutions to be revealed in part 3.......

God Bless You Diane~ I missed you when you were gone. Just seeing your smile in the profile pic shines HIS light though the screen

Hugh: Thank you - it's great to be missed by folks who wish blessings upon you! If YOU see HIM in me... it's an honor to know, for i truly desire to be to the praise of HIS glory, but realize i'm in need of His finishing work. Blessings to you and your family also.

Diane, most need help at some point in their life, but there is a big difference between help and dependency, and unfortunately Section 8 has become a dependency for many, in stead of the short term help that it should be. Dependency is like a thief, it robs those who are dependent of what they can achieve.

George: This is so true, we ALL need help, but not dependency... and you've captured it rightly by saying "It is like a thief... it robs those who are dependent of what they can achieve" In part 3, i plan to share alternatives. Thanks for tuning in!

So true Diane...while working at the FHA Resource Center a few years ago, I had so many calls flooding in from people wanting to know how to get on the program. It took them over eighteen months to do so many times. The reason? Well, in most cases it was due to the client having to go back and start hiding income, hiding assets, etc. to qualify for the program. I will say they were persistent, but also not ethical in doing so. My job was to answer any questions concerning section eight questions, and many more regarding how to obtain an FHA loan. Great post as usual...I agree, get off, get out and get a job, be responsible for your family, and put your affairs in the hands of God.

Bob, thank you for your contribution. Having had first hand knowledge, i can imagine the stories you've heard! My appeal is a plea for conversion.... for those with an ear to hear. I believe those than succeed in severing themselves from it will become ideal recruits, becoming examples as they experience freedoms and gain back their lost self respect.
