Speaking during a Sunday service, the preacher urged Kenyans to reflect on how they manage borrowed money and whether loans were truly helping them improve their lives.
According to Pastor Ezekiel, many people borrow from the Hustler Fund to meet daily needs such as food, yet they fail to repay the loans.
He warned that this habit not only affects individuals but also weakens the country’s economy.
“Even if you say you don’t have money, ask yourself where it goes. Can we really grow as a nation if borrowing is the only solution?” he posed.
The man of God emphasized the importance of accountability and discipline when handling finances.
He advised Kenyans to stop normalizing debt and instead learn to live within their means. In his sermon, he pointed out that those who constantly rely on loans risk being trapped in endless financial struggles.
Pastor Ezekiel also linked the matter to spirituality, noting that excessive borrowing could be a sign of poverty in the soul.
“If your heart longs for borrowed money, it means you are poor even if you appear to have wealth.
May the blood of Jesus deliver you from the spirit of debt,” he declared, drawing applause from the congregation.
In a rare moment of openness, the preacher admitted that he too had struggled with debt in the past. He recalled how he used to dodge calls from creditors and avoid people he owed money.
That experience, he said, taught him how stressful and damaging financial irresponsibility can be.
